Is Ukraine about to have a war?
Ecce Homo! Loquitur...
Russia now recruiting those over 50 to go to Ukraine….
Well the whole of the northern Caucasus is an area to watch. If Putin falls and Russia has internal disorder don’t xpect Chechnya or th other republics not to stir up trouble.
Lots of anger at the disparate casualties in Ukraine as their men and sons have been fed into the meat grinder.whilst those in Moscow and S Petersburg have been spared…
And when the Chechens fighting for Ukraine head home they’ll undoubtedly take lots of experience and equipment with them - and volunteers and logistic support.

I would expect the next immediate flashpoint to be Belarus if when the Ukrainians win. There's a LOT or trained and equipped Belarusian's. While they won't be able to take western heavy hardware, can't imagine Ukraine will much if any effort to prevent them taking Ukrainian / ex soviet / captured Russian hardware with them

Well the rail bridge from Melitopol is well and truly shut, even Gupta in North West Frontier wouldn't cross that one
The partisans damaged the bridge near Melitopol and blocked the way of delivering ammunition from Crimea to the occupiers,

It will buff up. Give or take a year or so.
Putin has boasted to arm Russias allies with the latest arms technology: "[Russia] is ready to offer partners and allies the most modern types of weapons - from small arms to armoured vehicles and artillery, combat aircraft and unmanned aerial vehicles"
my question is: what is most modern type of Russian weaponry that might be of interest after showcasing their efficiency in the war in Ukraine? Tanks? Frigates? S400's? Fast jets?

"I want to emphasize that Russia stands for the broadest comprehensive development military-technical cooperation. Today in conditions of confidence in the emerging multipolar world, this is especially important," Putin said.
"We highly appreciate the fact that our country has many like-minded allies and partners on different continents. These are the states that do not succumb to the so-called hegemon, their leaders show a real masculine character and do not bend."

One would imagine that Putin's best bet would be to arm/ rearm and equip his own mob first?
Rather a lot of heavy gear may be left behind when the retreat gets under way. Putin cannot even trust his people to disable any serviceable ironmongery.

I also read somewhere this week that existing export orders for India and Egypt are being delayed to allow the equipment (tanks, I believe ) to be diverted to RF.
I wish Putin had someone honest and straight-talking he could rely on to give him a few home truths.
