I like how they have to use code words since they operate on open ops

Still trying to track down the original source, if it's still up. Edit: @TpyxaNews on Telegram is the closest I've gotten to an OP.

Seeing Russia send the bulk of its force in the east to mount the offensive in the Donbas, Ukraine recognized that the enemy was only keeping a modest blocking force just to the north around Kharkov. So, Ukraine decided to weight its force up north and attack the weaker Russian force at Kharkov, while economizing on force vs the stronger Russian force in the Donbas by standing strictly on the defensive. Offensive success around Kharkov has now allowed Ukraine to free the city from shelling and close on the LOCs essential for the large Russian force in Donbas, potentially disrupting the entire Russian attack. Brilliant.

Friendly fire is a major concern for both sides since much of their equipment is identical.

This ends quickly with the isolation and cutoff of Kiev. Ukrainian leadership and command and control better move west
This deserves reposting. Lol. Ron Paul agrees with you.

Reports say dozens of the Malloy T150 cargo drones will soon be headed to Ukraine, primarily for use getting supplies to forces in the field. They'll also be flown for medical deliveries to emergency services caring for people injured by Russian rocket strikes.

The Mallory heavy-lift supply drones are intended to augment Ukraine's capacities to quickly resupply forces in combat, while reducing the risk of human or more expensive equipment loss using traditional vehicles. The specialized UAVs can carry up to 65 kg(143 pounds), and fly a maximum range of 70 km.
Looking forward to the brilliant ingenuity of the Ukrainians.

Hopefully after they win, they'll come back and train our troops on (relatively) low tech drone warfare.

65 Kg load capacity. Something tells me they won't just be ferrying medical supplies...

Putin doesn't seem to care how many guys die for his cause. And he doesn't have to worry about voting booths.

I like their thinking. Control of MSRs and ASRs will chock out already shaky sustainment ops. You don't have to defeat forces in head to head battle if you can just squeeze the life out of their supply trains.

No, but Ukraine is getting newer, better gear while Russia is moving backwards in time using older and more poorly maintained stuff. Since Putin elected not to mobilize he's also burning through bodies without calling up and training new ones. He's had to redeploy his Syrian forces (not that great) to Ukraine. At a certain point the manpower approach becomes moot if you can no longer equip them to at least function in a near-peer capacity. Just bodies for bullets as Russia keeps backing up.

The helicopters are primarily used for personnel transport but can be armed with rockets and cannons for use in close air support situations. The U.S. will provide Ukraine with kits containing laser-guided devices that make rockets more precise, the Pentagon announced last week.

That versatility is welcome in Donbas, the eastern part of Ukraine where Russia has consolidated its forces in an attempt to seize more territory. The helicopters could be used for moving soldiers around the battlefield and medical evacuation across the vast region.

Happy hunting or happy delivery. Either way, Slava Ukraini.

Putin's Nightmare: Lockheed Is Going All In On Making More Javelin Missiles
Quote:
This week, Lockheed Martin confirmed that the production rate of the anti-tank missile will be increased dramatically in response to calls from the Ukrainian government

James Taiclet, the CEO of Lockheed Martin, told CBS News on Monday that the current rate of 2,100 missiles manufactured per year will increase to 4,000. However, the increase in production won't immediately benefit Ukraine's efforts to fend off Russians in the eastern Donbas region, with the production increase set to come into effect in the next "couple of years."

During the interview, Taiclet confirmed that supply chains are in place to ensure that the increased demand for Javelin missiles can be met and that they can "start turning up the heat now" and "ramping the production immediately."

And a very nice video of a Javelin strike that came out today.
