Russia - threadbanned users in OP

And at the same time they claim there latest wunderwaffen the SU57 stealth fighter is going into a full serial production too with a brand new engine recently produced,but in saying Ive never seen more than 5 of the aircraft,but they it was claimed they have 20 available

Exactly , I wouldn't have thought that they could produce a lot of anything been we are watching basic infrastructure falling apart from roads , water pipes and heating infrastructure,but yet 1000 + tanks and stealth aircraft are being produced, I'll happily wait and see if any of the above turn up this or next year

In 3 years time russia may or may not have collapsed by then. The war effort has put a lot pressure on their nation, 1000 more days of dead soldiers, destroyed equipment, pipe lines and oil’s refineries being hit, angry mothers/wives, disgruntled oligarchs…. And a lot more….. But of course a trump win might be a game changer….

If Trump is re-elected and pulls out of NATO while declaring he wouldn't help Europe Putin would know it's the only time in his life he could possibly attack the Baltic's and get away with it. He probably still has fantasies of capturing Ukraine, Moldova and Romania but he could easily throw a few hundred thousand men at surrounding the Baltic's.

It's kinda sad Europe isn't dramatically ramping up shell and other weapon production as if we're already at war. All we can hope is Trump doesn't win and Russia can't sustain the war.

Sounds good, doesn't work. How will he attack the baltics? With what army? Is it a mysterious "A" army, that we're still waiting for?

You can see it's very difficult to tell what are mines and what are unexploded munitions, artillery strikes and craters from impacts , most of looking at that video seems to show please splash damage that they could see in the day light video

If that's what they think maybe it's time NATO went in there for real?

But they are not begging for munitions. We are told to believe that Russia have to take apart washing machines for parts and components. I’m just looking at the numbers and the claims. NATO, from what I’ve read cannot produce a 10th of the artillery shells needed per month.

I’m very open to correction but Leopards, Chalengers, Abrams, Bradley’s have all proved to be completely ineffective.

They already have a sizable population of Chinese both legal and illegal immigrants based in Siberia,they could well for a Putin and send troops to protect there citizens ,but if China was able to take a piece of Russia there would be no stopping them expanding into other countries,

UK preparing for war..

'America is reportedly planning to station nuclear weapons in the UK in response to the growing threat from Russia.

They would be kept at RAF Lakenheath in Suffolk under the proposals - which are detailed in The Telegraph.

It says Pentagon documents reveal contracts for a new facility and "show the US intends to place nuclear warheads three times the strength of the Hiroshima bomb at the air base".

The paper says it would be the first time in 15 years that America has stationed nuclear weapons in the UK.

"Unredacted documents on the US department of defence’s procurement database reveal plans for a 'nuclear mission' that will take place 'imminently' at RAF Lakenheath", reports The Telegraph.

The nuclear weapons that could be located at the base are reported to be B61-12 gravity bombs, which can be deployed from fighter jets.

The Telegraph says it's part of a NATO programme to "develop and upgrade nuclear sites" in the wake of Russia's invasion.

Responding to the report, a Ministry of Defence spokesperson said: "It remains a longstanding UK and NATO policy to neither confirm nor deny the presence of nuclear weapons at a given location."

If Ukrainian progress on their offensive last Summer was slow, then Russian progress in their localised offensives is positively glacial. The battle of Avdiivka has been officially running for almost two years, now.

There would be natural resources in Siberia. China (if Russia collapsed) would be well capable of controlling local populations although 'controlling' is probably not the correct word.

Just because they will lose their imperial war against Ukraine does not mean Russia will collapse, no more so than the U.K. collapsed when we got our freedom.

Its part of the Russian propaganda narrative don't support Ukraine or there will be chaos and China will gain etc. etc.
