Hopefully F-16 can help on that problem.They can supposedly unearth 20 meters down into the ground. They're hell on troops. There's no indication they're coming unless you're privy to radar data of the bombers flying around. They just ... show up. Can you imagine? Talk about being caught off guard. Apparently insanely loud also, if you manage to survive close proximity your ear drums are probably blown out. Traumatizing as fuck according to the soldiers who manage to get word out. Who would have thought artillery would be preferential to contend with.
It gets better:
Yesterday's ISW report mentions, "The Russian Air Force (VKS) reportedly started using guided glide bombs against Ukraine. Russian milbloggers claimed that Russian forces recently started conducting air strikes with guided glide bombs with universal interspecific glide ammunition (UMPB), as opposed to using unguided glide bombs with unified planning and correction modules (UMPK), in unspecified areas in Ukraine.[51] Russian milbloggers claimed that the guided glide bombs with UMPB have jet engines, which are absent from FAB-250/500 bombs with UMPC, and thus can increase the range of a FAB-250/500 from 40-60 kilometers to 80-95 kilometers.[52]"
edit: ^ Apparently they're tired of losing bombers as frequently as they have been. Forgot to mention that -- that's my assessment.
I'm curious can Biden use the Defense Production Act circumvent the congress block so we can still produce and supply aid or would it still get bogged down by congress?
WITAFDressing up rusty North Korean shells with pro-Trump messages is pretty on brand.

Sounds like we are dealing with a question of... how far back we can push enemy aircraft?Hopefully F-16 can help on that problem.
The two pictures on the right look like such ass from a logistics perspective.Russian arms running cargo ships diverting from the Black Sea due to risk. Ukrainian USV operations have been wildly successful at their mission.

Fucking out of touch cross dresser.There's not too much that happens in this world that surprises me anymore.
Well, then there's days like this.
Pope Francis says he thinks Ukraine should raise a white flag and negotiate with Russia.
I didn't see that one coming, in the language that was delivered.
Give the pope a break; he's old and senile.There's not too much that happens in this world that surprises me anymore.

Since the interview, the Pope has come out and said that he misspoke and meant to say negotiate.There's not too much that happens in this world that surprises me anymore.

FTFYTo the surprise of no one, Trump's "in-depth" plan is to side with Russia.
MAGA is an enemy to freedom and democracy wherever it exists.
You know, I actually did wonder if that was a case of "well shit, wish I could take that one back." Because like, that was rather heavy. That's why I was surprised, the language of the messaging. Heavy as fuck. lolSince the interview, the Pope has come out and said that he misspoke and meant to say negotiate.
I wonder how long it takes Ukraine to utilize something similar, it would stand to be in their interest to do so.
