No, i just think he's seeing the stuff on X/Twitter about the head of the Intel Subcommittee calling on Biden to declass some info so the American public can be made aware of a new medium to long term threat. Russia may have decided to put some sort of EMP weapon on a recently launched space...

Welp, that's gonna leave a mess.

Oh dear, that's a rather senior sub commander who just got whacked.

It's likely multiple things, really; lack of functional 'spare' tanks for ceremonial (instead of combat) uses, even going back to T-55's now. Also, it would be hard to cover the loses suffered if people saw the holes in the formations and displays in the usual parades. Plus, well, it would...

Fucking lol.

Looks like the second test fire of the Sarmat ICBM had a second stage failure.

Ironically, yes, if only because they would have not experienced the brain-drain had the Iron Curtain remained up.

More western products to spend skimmed money on, and more open borders allowing the best and brightest to legally leave for the first time in decades. Smart and worthwhile Russians tend to get out of Russia as soon as they can.

It's called the revenge of the Second Baltic Squadron. No, she's a logistic sink we want Russia to have to maintain. They can fix her, they cannot really replace her anymore given the heavy industry loss their invasion of Ukraine has cost them.

The Kuz is even more fucked than we thought.

https://www.ibtimes.com/russias-new-t-14-armata-tank-breaks-down-during-victory-day-parade-rehearsal-moscow-1913336 Heh, wonderful timing on this. Maybe they aren't sending T-14s to Ukraine because they are hanger/depot queens with problems that make a Porche Tiger look hassle free.

Well supposedly the Ukrainians have started using the Javelin's Trump sold them against 'rebel' armor recently, so it might have something to do with that. IIRC, there is also a Royal Navy CV in the Black Sea, per Twitter, with USMC F-35's onboard, plus it's own airwing, so that likely has the...

Well that is at least a more useful place for that equipment to go, and if we are sending advisors as well...I guess we are going to test how far Putin is willing to go to take Ukraine, if he wants to. Will he be willing to risk killing US advisors on the ground, if he decides to send official...

If true...Russia, don't get stupid on us, please...Ukraine is not worth it.

Precision of a goldsmith...bold strategy Cotton, let's see how it goes. Edit: https://www.theguardian.com/science/2021/nov/15/us-investigating-debris-event-space-reports-russia-anti-satellite-weapon-test?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other "Nelson said the astronauts now faced a four times greater...

They are now estimating over 1500 new pieces of trackable debris in that orbit, that will be there for potentially decades, and it seems the ISS crew is now in full emergency mode because of fear of hits by the debris field. Edit: NASA statement...

https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/43140/russian-anti-satellite-test-produces-dangerous-debris-cloud-in-orbit-reports More info about ASAT test, seems the crew have had to get in the escape vehicles because the debris cloud is just above the ISS's orbit and could impact the station. Right...

Russia just conducted an ASAT test, and now a new debris cloud is in orbit; ISS having to go to 'Safe Haven' maneuvers.

I think the lies that have piled up around Ukraine and what has happened their since back before WW1 are about as big as the radioactive debris pile sitting in it's northern reaches. I do not think it will be a paradise, I'm not that naive. But I also know we cannot prevent it anymore than we...

Woodrow Wilson's idiocy and greed lead to Germany suffering for 'starting' a war they didn't actually start, just fought well, and the Great Depression just added to it. Then the fucktard from Austria got going, and we ended up with WW2. Also, no amount of US firepower will keep the world from...
