Where Do Things End With Vlad? (h/t romad1)

[1984Echoes]

Interesting concept.

Although I don't think distance or location saves anyone from Putin's radioactive retribution if he so chooses it...

[romad1]

I like Putin being sad.

Exactly the sort of thing you do to prove you destroyed a Patriot Battery or whatever else the Orcs are claiming

That's some Darth Vader level evil.  Didn't the same exact thing happen in Rogue One?

I don't understand what I am reading there, but it has a "Death of Stalin" ring to it, like Steve Buscemi is going to sort out Beria once and for all.

Not arrested:  the designers of the Patriot system and its multiple system upgrades.   Also not arrested, the designers of the NLAW/Javelin, HIMARS, Storm Shadow and the AGM-88.

 

[romad1]

So, its all going to plan

[romad1]

well, you have to trust Ukraine to tell the truth on this.  but if so, It appears that the Iranian designers of the Shaheed were treasonous because they fell victim to the previously destroyed 5 Patriot batteries.

U.S. officials are planning for the growing possibility that the Russia-Ukraine war will turn into a frozen conflict that lasts many years — perhaps decades — and joins the ranks of similar lengthy face-offs in the Korean peninsula, South Asia and beyond.

Quote

The amount of equipment sent directly from existing U.S. stockpiles has steadily diminished over the past few months, while the packages of aid used to purchase new weapons from industry — a process that can take months to years — has increased.

Quote

 Biden administration recently transferred $300 million worth of weapons from existing U.S. stockpiles, primarily ammunition, while providing $1.2 billion to purchase more complex weapons, such as air defenses, from industry.

So billions and billions of tax payer money for Ukraine for decades then?

[pfife]

It's billions and billions against Russia which is how its been for almost 85 years at least.   What a ridiculous assertion.

You seem awfully scared of Russia.

[romad1]

Because the Russians suck at this.   They may be genocidal monsters but they suck at war.

1945-1991 was a pretty decent investment.  Our stuff from then is still outfighting their crap from then.
