  1. It was interrupted for more than a day. It still hasn't had heavy rail transport roll over it, just propaganda shoots of empty trains rolling at 5km/h over it.

  2. Russia has never achieved air superiority in this war.

  3. Funny how all these Russian shills know generals and special forces who know more than the "mainstream media" lets us know.

  4.  @jameslynn7271  There's been two drone attacks by air on Sevastopol HQ and one by sea. The point on Hanzo's comment isn't the bases but striking during transit.

  5. The situation in Crimea cost the Russian federation billions. Maxim Katz, Russian opposition, made the argument that the seizure of Crimea was a net drain on Russia's economy.

  6. For once? They suffered greatly in Finland in the 40s and also in Ukraine this February.

  7. Russians were dug in on the Western side of Kherson Oblast. They gave it up.

  8. The vote happened at gunpoint. About as valid as the Kherson referendum.

  9. Russia has gone after civilian targets since day one. They just can't afford to expend more missiles.

  10. No because Russian logistic problems are systemic. They depend on rail and large ammunition dumps to feed their artillery. HIMARS forced a dispersion of ammo dumps and larger distances involved. Ukraine prioritized the targeting of supply trucks early in the war so Russia is struggling. Winter will be severe to the poorly trained and equipped Russians, while Ukraine gets winter gear from allied nations.

  11. This is cope similar to the cope after the Kiev, Snake Island and Kharkiv debacles.

  12. But how is Russia cornered? They have tons of land. All they have to do is go home. Their lives won't change one bit. There's no corner, nobody's coming for them. Nobody wants their country or their people. They can have it.

  13. The Kharkiv offensive sealed Luhansk's fate. Their defenses in the north cannot be supplied by rail anymore, the rail lines from the East do not connect all the way to the North and the northern rail lines out of Belgorod are under Ukrainian artillery range.

  14. Ukraine is in the corner and Russia has the whole damn house. Russia can just leave and this is over. They have a billion corners to go into in their country. Stop repeating this nonsense.

  15.  @jimluebke3869  The Eastern provinces were drained out of Russia-friendly residents too. Either by offering passports and relocation, forced deportation or mobilization. The Donetsk and Luhansk regions were viciously depopulated through warfare - they used Russian-speaking Ukrainians as cannon fodder.

  16.  @klaasvakie  Okay. And these people on the frontlines, why do they keep being wrong? They've been telling you Russia is winning.

  17. They breached several lines of defense. Also, work harder not smarter. Force your enemy to disperse and defeat the smaller agglomerations instead of the large force. Defeat in detail. Napoleon used it. "Oh you never beat my forces in well defended cities" boo hoo. Do you want to win or score points for style? I'd rather win. Why would I want a fair fight? I want the odds to be stacked in my favor.

  18. The UAF takes the most casualties when forced to defend critical positions and Russia has artillery superiority. The major battle victories were done by playing smart rather than banging their heads against Russian defenses like Russians did against Ukraine.

  19. Russia invaded Crimea and ran a phoney referendum just like Kherson. Kherson was "officially" Russian. Ukraine invaded. They're the bad guy? Nobody cares. Most of the world recognizes Crimea occupied, not as part of Russia.

  20. Yeah and Xi already told Putin he can't use nukes. If he does, we start going after military targets.

  21. The rail bridge was damaged. The fires burned so long large stretches of rail expanded and buckled. High temperatures affect rebar and also the concrete bonding strength to steel.

  22. It's Ukrainians. Keep coping and seething.

  23.  @divyavichar  From India and you hitched your wagon to the losing side because you're still mad at the West for backing Pakistan during the Cold War. We're not shivering from cold, it's a really mild Winter. You don't live here, we're not fighting each other or suffering from low temperatures. You've been fooled by Russian propaganda.

  24. Billions of USD worth of Rubles. Crimea was a net drain on Russia's economy due to how hard it was to maintain.
    1
  25. Just like Finland and Ukraine Feb-March.

  26. There wasn't a Western collapse. The US left as agreed in the peace deal and the Kabul government collapsed.

  27. Gee it's almost like Russians blew their load with the Iranian drones and the West started donating air defenses. Bombs on Kiev? Good luck. I hope they try. I want to see charred corpses of the VKS after they try to drop bombs inside S-300 range.

  28. They're already at both sides of the Dnipro. In a place called Zaporizhzhia.

  29. Rail can be operational 99% of the time, but if the train cars transporting heavy equipment are hit, that's a major blow.

  30. Ritter hasn't said anything worthwhile since the start. Rember the "it takes 5 Javelins to take out a Russian tank"? Yeah...

  31. "Russophobia" ah yes the term made up by Russian propagandists to refer to anyone who criticizes them.

  32. Russia spent billions shipping fresh water and investing in desalination. Gaining control of the canal was a big deal because Russia eased some pressure off.

  33. Armored vehicles are sealed and the air filtered. The Cold War forced designers to have NBC/CBRN protection.

  34. You bought the dip on Putincoin?

  35.  @zinjanthropus322  "it's presighted" okay but if you have no recon units telling when to fire and where you're SOL. You're welcome to fire on pre-sighted positions at random intervals. But your opponent will simply stay away from those locations.
