This kinda went unnoticed a Ukrainian Mig29 was lost yesterday after being attacked by Russian drones.on the ground.
The kitchen sinks have been heading in the other direction, along with the toilets.
Considering what happened in Ukraine, I'd say that they consider it a worthwhile and very necessary investment. And to be honest, I'd have to agree with them.
Current heading to 4+% of gdp on defence spending, I'd assume that they had a decent economy and spending alot of EU money, other than following their modernisation I wouldn't be that knowledgeable on their economic development and forecast,
For what they have spent already and are intending to spend on all of this new equipment it also costs a lot of money to train, operate and store this HiTech equipment and weapons and vehicles,
If only we could look and see what's possible with a budget increase for the defence forces
How are they affording this? The average pole is really struggling financially these days.
Yeah pretty much bar heavy bombers and a select few weapons,they have thrown everything bar the kitchen sink at it
Is it now fair to say that the Russian military has by now committed pretty much everything it possibly can to this war?
I see Poland is looking to buy 150-200 fighter aircraft to compliment their F16s and f35s and KoreanFA/50s they are looking for a larger aircraft capable of carrying more and heavier munitions F15 EX and Typhoon are in the running for the contract,the US don't even have that many F15EX built currently only 3 out of 104 ordered
Underneath that was this
Russian telegram is alight with rumours
hoping good news is coming.
Amazing how times have changed.
Used to be that dead Russians were getting chopped from photos and videos. Now they are being added.
A great but grim (coffee table) book on the subject.
Wouldn't even surprise me if the whole video was a propaganda piece, that there was no meeting and they forgot one of the lads on screen had already crocked it.
Infantilism.
Yet, it's Russias default response to ships, subs etc getting hit by drones or missiles.
Would literally be that simple
What about a video of him reading today's newspaper?
If they don't come clean in the next few days he's dead.
Absolutely faking it isn't the right way to go in this day and age
I have my doubts. Could be a recording of him from an older date on the screen. If you want to prove your lad is still alive, there are much smarter ways to do it.
Do we know when this video was recorded or if he is simply a recording of a recording on the screen?
Ya really wouldn’t know with the Russians what's going on.
Wouldn't surprise me if they took him down to the dole office to sign on.
He may well be alive , but definitely not alive and well
I'd say he is about 50% dead judging by the available info.
Weekend at Vladdy's Bernies?
hmmmm
CNN translating this for us drive by plebs
The arrival ( or none as the case may be) will have a direct effect on reducing and eventually stopping completely the issues you mention...Refugees, kidnaping of children and countless numbers dying. And there's simply no way around that fact. The more weapons that arrive the better, and that's cause for discussion and rejoicing.
Have you ever poked your head into the conspiracy theories forum , something like this does not suprise me at all
Elaborate.
That makes zero sense,
