  1. If they leave it too long the place might be swamped by anti air systems.

  2. I suspect it is being saved for the greater European operations.

  3. That is not even close to being true. Ukraine has a population of about 40 million and about 800,000 have fled the country.

  4. The longer Russia holes of the more time the space has to get flooded with weapons.

  5. How on earth did they envision that? Did they not think the Ukrainian people would oppose the invasion?

  6. He is saying it is not certain at this stage as to why and have a couple of different scenarios.

  7. The longer they leave it the greater the risk Ukraine gets armed. The problem paratroopers and special forces have is they will get spotted by defenders in the cities. We will need to see how this all plays out.

  8. The US is like having a big brother that is like Mike Tyson. It does not matter what other big brothers are around they are all scared of him. What Russia is banking on is that the US will not get involved rather than it being not that bright. The reality is if WW3 was to start the US would build 1000 aircraft carriers, over a million aircraft, 20 million vehicles and probably over a million missiles. Right now as things stand the US air force is twice as large as Russia and China combined. If you took the military budgets of the next 20 largest in the world and added them together they would still not match the US. The real US military budget expenditure is close to 1.5 trillion per year.

  9.  @scotimotti  Such an airstrike would cause WW3 and maybe even full exchange.

  11. Right now NATO needs to build its forces on the eastern front to let Russia know that it is willing to fight.

  12. Do you know his rank and expertise?

  13. Cars can actually be built without them. No military vehicle has them.

  14. The west has realized what is going down. Right now the Eastern region is being flooded with anti air systems and surface to surface systems. Russia has size, Scale and power on its side but that can only carry a force so far. At some point accuracy and battle field command has to be present. Russia has a population of 150 million and NATO has a population of over 1 billion.

  15. Russia is stalling and that could end up being a massive problem for Russia in the long term. The longer the stall lasts the more danger the field gets flooded with advanced mobile systems.

  16.  @555125kevin  Not it is not. Ukraine had a very limited supply of launch systems and most of what they have is close quarter anti tank systems. NATO countries started to send in systems but it is too little too late.

  17.  @redache467  Nuclear exchange means mutual destruction.

  18. I do not think the Ukraine has the weapons they need.
