  1. This is such a cope. It was a failure as it was attack of desperation of weak UA army against well defended front line and well armed troops.

  2. It is starting to be a joke of how poor NATO officers really are or how much they care about opinion about them. Even Polish generals now switched front and say Ukraine lost the war - they want to save their skin. This guy? No shame.

  3. Its too late - Ukraine is on the ropes. Also they are loosing more troops in defense than Russians in offense - roughly 2 to 1. This is due to Russian fire power. This is moving towards 3:1 as Ukraine is running low on ammo and equipment.

  4. Correct - Ukraine has no people left due to huge losses and has no ammo or equipment even for these troops they have.

  5.  @jesan733  no, this is quite new. Maybe two months now. You are confusing it with western propaganda that said Russia will run out of missiles, tanks, etc. That started in April or May of last year but somewhat lost steam.

  6. Yes, they have taken usual number - these are not used in Ukraine. No Russia is not using humans lives - that would be Ukraine. Air assets were transferred to Ukraine - dozens of aircraft, dozens of helicopters.

  7. Russian KIA max is 70k, UA KIA max is 300k. More realistic is 45- 60k and 200 - 250k for Ukraine.

  8.  @marquisdemoo1792  Russian figures are from media Zona /BBC. UA figures are based on BBC artillery use report.

  9.  @marquisdemoo1792  Yes, this is why I have accounted for this.

  10. Why, this seems normal - Russia is top 5 destination for migrants on Earth. Millions would love to get their citizenship.

  11. Yeah, 110B by US alone. Was not enough. What did they expect, 330B?

  12.  @aaronbaker2186  not sure these latest patriot systems were on the way out. As well as a lot of other air defense. Same with AT weapons, US is making the same ones now for itself. Some equipment, yes, older. But a lot no, not old. Also a lot of it was cash transfers. No one know where these went.

  13.  @wallingnaga6563  US command would be wrong. Part of the problem in this war is that the enemy sees everything. If Ukraine used their forces in one spot they would be spotted and destroyed - in this war you cannot have too many people that make a nice target. Ukraine correctly spread Russian forces and stretched them - the problem is that Russians had too many troops and it was not possible. Ukraine sure wanted to attack early - but the forces were not ready - heck Ukraine big problem is under trained troops - sometimes less than a month in an emergency. So attacking early may have been better or worse - who knows. Ukraine has next to now air force so it could not stop Russian air power nor its drones. The main problem was with well prepared, well trained, well equipped Russian army supported by a lot of artillery that prevented Ukraine from moving forward - Russia was simply way too strong. Offensive was the last push - Ukraine now is in total defense and is being pushed off... Best thing Ukraine can do now is start negotiations.

  14. Russia on the offensive! Today moved in 5 places, Ukraine in 0. Yesterday, in 6, Ukraine in 0. Ukraine taking heavy losses and has no choice but to retreat all across Donbas front line.

  15. Media Zona gives us over 36,000 KIA - if we add DPR and possibly other formations we get around 50k++ for entire war. With 5:1 wounded ratio we are about 250k. Totals are around 300k+ Ukraine losses are generally much higher - I estimate 200k KIA as minimum and around 1m wounded for total well over a million casualties. Mediazona did not see any spike in Russian losses last month.
