@fryertuck6496 I wonder if it occurs to anyone in the West that a dispersed, reduced military in Ukraine was the goal, and the Russians aren't upset about the lack of targets. The Russians are obliged to stick and move. They can do amazing things with indirect fire, but they need a good spotter and they need to pick up and move in a short amount of time. It's the same for the FPV's, the camera-guided stuff. Russians are using small, light infantry drone operators.
I know we Monday morning quarterbacks should shut up about tactics, but someone with an endless supply of cheap drones might be able to change how wars are fought. If you can knock out a tank or artillery piece with a cheap suicide drone, that can be a game-changer. But tactics go out the window, when you can field orders of magnitude more men and munitions, any small tactical advantages are wiped out. Just looking at the troop and equipment build-up that started years ago and is now in high gear, it looks more and more hopeless for Ukraine and the stumbling and bumbling West. We're too many generations into taking our dominance for granted. The political class takes its privileges and its profits for granted, but reliance on finance and regulation, alone, without the resource and industrial base to back it is just a fart in the wind. The world is moving on without us. We need to get back to the basics of sound (limited) government.
