In the original thread at the start of the war I said this would be the first 21st century war. I thought there would be more hacking of critical infrastructure, but it seems one of the more important aspects of this war compared to say the war in Iraq is the use of small UAVs or "drones" for both reconnaissance and attack. Most people think of multirotors when they think of drones but fixed wing aircraft are often cheaper and faster with more range and carrying capacity. This seems like something that will be very important going forward as the meaning of "air power" is likely to look different. Do US infantrymen receive extensive training in the operation of these for FPV flight and targeting? It seems to me small UAVs and ATGMs will be the future of ground warfare.

With these cheap grenade-dropping drones basically silent above you, no place is safe on a battlefield anymore and you must assume you're being watched and targeted non-stop. Talk about psychological stress 24/7.

😂Must be.
And to think we had it bad when he was president.

LMFAO, Putins son-in-law(sort of) surname is Zelensky. His youngest daughter lives with balet dancer Igor Zelensky.
You can`t make this shit up.

Is that a common name in eastern Europe?

Here in the USA, you can swing a cat and hit several Joneses or Smiths. Either way, that's a curious irony about Putin's extended family. I hope he likes those young men, or....

It's not often I agree with Lindsey Graham but he makes a good speech at the beginning of this video.

I'm sure we all understand how the horror of war can desensitize a combatant. I don't know the depths of my own darkness if put in a similar situation...BUT...this mother is obviously a black soul. That young man was raised from childhood on evil and hate. What also seems appearant is that many of the Russian military forces were fed from similar putrid, sick tits. What church and God condones and supports these actions?

Knowing the way both sides play, I can only take this with a grain of salt.
How do we know who actually made the call?

Sadly, we don't. If I am being led down a path of disinformation...Lord forgive me and show me the truth. I actually wrote a paper for Political Science class back in the '90's on the subject of Russian religious/political ethos. It was pretty condemning and for many years afterward I believed it was naive and myopic. Regardless of how truthful either side of this conflict are in their reporting of events...I now really do feel vindicated in my original opinion...the majority of the Russian populace believe or WANT to believe that their rightful place in the world has been usurped and thwarted by evil forces led by the USA and their Jewish overlords.

I'm not that smart. Everything I used in my conclusions came from written quotes and books...no "internet" influence involved. It was time consuming and tedious. The internet may make things faster and easier to obtain but at the cost of false or misleading information. The truth is out there but it's often buried under a mountain of manure.

Sadly, the west will pressure Ukraine to give up teritories, maybe even all Russia holds right now. There are bunch of sellouts in the west. Next war in 10-15 years. Maybe not me, but my children will have to fight on our land, defend Baltics. Money talks and Putin has plenty of it.

I’m sure some of my buddies will come over and teach you how to fight like they have been doing in Latvia and Ukraine as well. We’ll support you buddy, don’t worry.

Total bullshit everything he says, except numbers. Russians and DNR forces are calling it treason by Moscow. All evacuation was carried out by 2 KGB generals. No war journalists were allowed, all separatist forces were pulled back and all security was provided by russian Rosgvardia. Leadership of AZOV was driven out in armored SUV`s. They had plenty of ammo and food. It was a deal between Russia, Ukraine with participation of many heads of states of many countries. Russia agreed to not lose more man, Ukraine agreed to save wounded.
Before that russians tried to storm Underground, but were eliminated. I mean few teams totally wiped out. After that they just patrolled perimiter and let aviation do it`s work.
All defenders will be exchanged. They might go to court and get sentenced for what ever cause, but after that they will be exchanged to solders and pilots that are getting sentenced in Ukraine right now.
