The single greatest warmaking capability of the US is not its ground, air, or naval forces, it's the consistent ability to deploy, redeploy, supply, and resupply those forces in any conditions, continuously, anywhere in the world.
The fact that you don't understand this is unsurprising but hilarious.

The problem for people who don't understand what's going on is that Russia is making large encirclements north and west of Avdiivka, which both accelerates the capture of territory but degrades the forces Ukraine has to defend with. Most of the last 2 years has been the Russians pushing against heavily fortified areas west of Donetsk, but the entire front, not just Avdiivka, has broken.
As the front collapses, Ukraine is in increasingly less prepared positions, and Russia is able to concentrate its forces further. That means more movement, more encirclement, and a higher rate of territory capture.
Sloviansk, Kramatorsk, and Kurakhove are up next, but I would be unsurprised to see Zaporizhzhia captured before Kharkiv or Kherson.Florida Crew as of 3/21

Someone explain to me why Russia doesn't open up another flank from the top of Ukraine on the Belarus/Russia border. They'd be within range of Kiev within a few weeks?
Is there some kind of geographical problem in this area that prevents them from opening up multiple warfronts or do they not have the manpower?

LOL. The cope is off the charts.
No mention of the Ukrainian military getting weaker by the day, whole units being destroyed and the accelerating collapse?
The number of men and equipment being destroyed is a miilion times more important than taking land at this point. Eventually the Ukrainians will become so weak the Russians will just steamroll whats left and take as much land as they want. There will be no one left to stop them.
It's also why the billions in funding won't stop the inevitable, because they can't buy more fighting age men. Especially not experienced ones that will last more a week on the battlefield.

I can see why Trump was supportive of the House speaker right before he moved forward the aid package. Aid to Ukraine is already quite unpopular and in 6 months nothing will most likely change in Ukraine but Zelensky will beg for more.
Biden has put himself in the corner and will have no choice but to campaign for more support for his puppet, for more money. I think Trump is banking for and will run on bringing a resolution rather than giving Ukraine a blank check, which most Americans can agree on.
Hope for Zelensky he can do something before the elections, otherwise it’s game over for him. Even if Biden wins, there won’t be many brave politicians left asking for more then 200b already sent.♞♞♞♞♞♞♞♞♞♞♞♞♞♞♞♞

Yeh logistics are great and all, however its nothing to do with the threats MBTs face on the battlefield. The US data points for tank warfare are just old fashioned now. On the modern battlefield MBTs face greater threats from drones spotted artillery, FPV drones, ATGM, tandem RPG etc. Abrahs tanks can have the best logistics, but when a $500 drone wrecks them it wont realy matter.
If the US engaged in conflict it would face far higher tank losses than ever before.
I'm not 'trained' in warfare, I'm an engineer; still i have forgotten more about war than you've ever known.
Regardless, you're so called great logistics is not battle tested aganst serious opposition. In a war with Iran or Russia your logistic lines will actually be tested. We will see how great they are when they're constantly hit by missiles. I already know your military would collapse under such circumstances.

The Russians are in no rush. This war being extended benefits them. Everytime the US sends $60B it doesn't make a meaningful tangible benefit for the Ukrainian forces but it degrades the ability of the US. At this point the Russians have already beat Ukraine, now they're leveraging this victory to undermine opponents in western Europe and the US.
This is all agreed between Russia, Iran and China. They are working together to diminish the US.

lol tbh I probably appear more anti American than I am. I simply believe that all people of the world should be respected and that we are all better off with peace and free markets.
The US has been on a path of continual warfare and sanctions - they need to be humbled. A multi polar world that balances power will be preferable.

Okay so 2 more weeks right vatcucks?
Lol after 2 years of big bad Ruzzia not being able to conquer their third world neighbour you'd think you cucks would learn some humility, but alas that was never a ruski quality.
And the only real cope is you thinking a sh*thole like Iran can defeat Israel or USA. "bu..bu MUH DROONEEESSS!!" LMFAO! Durkas, when will they learn?

"If you combine both data streams I have showed in the previous posts then it means that Russia loses up to 45 pieces of hardware a day (destroyed and damaged) to gain 0.7 square kilometers a day.
To put things into perspective I have added this map. There are still around 10,700 square kilometers of the free Donetsk Region, which are under Ukrainian control. If we round this up to 1.0 square kilometer, which Russians take a day, then it will take them 10,700 days (29,3 Years) to only take this single Ukrainian region"
LOL at vatniks coping that it's not a stalemate and Ruzzia is """winning""", just LMFAO!Last edited by phaginator; 04-30-2024 at 04:01 AM.

It seems odd that you think Ukrane can beat Russia, but Iran cannot beat Israel or the US.
Russia has an expansive border with Ukraine and is much larger with a lot more military power.
The US is very far from Iran and Israel is tiny.
Regardless don't take my owrd for it. The proof is in the pudding. Russia has already defeated Ukraine and is just in a go slow, because it benefits them (and their allies) bleeding the Americans.
Iran just bitch slapped both the US and Israel and completely changed the orientation of the ME. From your POV nothing happened, but in the ME, central Asia, Pakistan and others; this was a monumental event. Iran is now recognised as the leading nation in the region. This has tangible results. Pakistan just refused to comply with American threats of sanctions for building the Iran-Pakistan naturla gas pipeline; Saudi have ust agreeed an economic framework with Iran.
The US is considered a spent power in the region and everyone is falling in line.

They are dumb as phuck. European nations are being told that they need to send Ukrainian refugees back to be conscripted for a war they are supposedly winning. They are fighting to the last man with a foreign nations gold and weapons. These retards still think this is about territory, its the execution of an entire generation of Ukrainian men
Paginator is a queer who is worried that Poland is next. Thats all this ever was. Quite happy to see Ukrainians die so that he may not need to put up a fight one day.

Same old gay Mr Miyagi crying day in and day out ITT even while Ukraine disappears and the retard crew does nothing but cry online instead of putting on their big boy pants to go die for their Homo Joker.
Sad.
Besides, something did happen today. Kerch bridge got hit. How pathetic does Ukraine look that after two and half years they still can't destroy a single bridge with all those western wonderwaffles? I can just LOL at the thought of Homo Joker beating his fists on the desk hiding in his little manlet bunker just like Hitler screaming at his general staff to destroy that bridge while they try and tell him they should do something about all the territory they keep losing.
Also...just ****ing LOL at the phagmaster using an opinion tweet with no sources as his big "gotcha" his Ukie boyfriends are somehow finally going to win. That retard crew cope in full display today.Last edited by yabbayabba; 04-30-2024 at 07:47 AM.

The more the Ukrainians collapse, the easier it is for the Ruskies to take large portions of land. You can't be this dumb surely? You're seeing it in real time now, as the Ukrainians continually retreat to try to preserve what little forces they have left. The Russians are probably losing a small % of what they were at the start of the war.
What's your IQ, about 75?

"To victory! I sincerely hope that the days of US-led Western bullying of the entire world and especially Europe, where I live, will soon be over. May the US get reduced to a regional power in North America and **** off along with their toxic infotainment politics, clown world cultural policy, and infinite greed. We need to replace Europe's political class through elections and sever the vassal connections to the failed society ‘led’ by the man who can barely recall his own name."
