Comments by "David Himmelsbach" (@davidhimmelsbach557) on "Heavy Weapons to Ukraine: Heavy Metal u0026 Rock 'n' Roll" video.
Left out is Op Sec. Both combatants are having huge issues with security. Ukraine has been riven with traitors coughing up intel to Russia -- by cell phone! This HAS to be a huge factor for Western militaries. The West wants artillery troops to be well vetted. Further, based on battlefield results, it's apparent that the UA is not moving its M777s around enough. The troops, obviously, get carried away with sending rounds down range -- neglecting just how fast the Russian counter-battery fires will find them. Said counter-battery fires will usually merit MLRS concentrations. So moving 500 meters away is wholly insufficient. Digging in an M777 serves no purpose, yet I see that being done in every video released. Psychologically, it's hard for the boys to tow away any howitzer that is dug in -- since they have such a (human labor) investment in its position. The Pentagon would be sending even more stuff, quicker, but for the fact that Red China versus Taiwan has to be factored in. In WWII it was firmly established that spreading tanks around, using piecemeal counter-offensives were bad ideas. Zelenskyy's boys need to concentrate their longest range MLRS into one fist and use it to wholly disrupt Russian artillery concentrations. The only location that fits the bill is against 58th Army. The Donbass front has to wait -- just too many Russian assets. It is a puzzle: why haven't the Americans given the Ukrainians loads of M198s ? Why aren't the Ukrainians given back-hoes by the hundred ?
