* I believe that at the moment this is all hypothetical and nothing has been transferred because no special storage facilities have been built.

Patriot not yet deployed
- Patriot is a very ambiguous statement. Does anyone know how to interpret that as being a quantity (understandable) or quality (mmmm....) issue.
Regarding the others :
- UK never sent any remaindered Rapier, so not that.
- Gepard has had happy user videos all over the place.
- IRIS-T I have a vague memory of happy user videos, but could be mistaken in my memory.
- NASAAMS no known happy user videos, though I had assumed OpSec request.
- Crotale no known happy user videos, though I had assumed OpSec request.
The various ex-Soviet stuff sent by eastern European users seems to have been integrated as one would expect.
Maybe other stuff has gone and not been reported.

There is also mention of a large explosion at Simferopol military airport which the Russkis claim was a plane going supersonic, but there is accompanying video showing a large plume of smoke. Speculation of drone attack.
DD also reports the UKR Defence Minister saying that the counter-attack will happen in late April/early May !!. At 17:45 DD shows his regular war-map and talks through different possibilities for this action.

If I’m reading this correct it’s zero on the altimeter on the run in.

Now that’s just heartbreaking, wait until you get near the end and look at it all.

Ecce Homo! Loquitur...
NEW: Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree on March 30 authorising Russia’s semiannual spring conscription which will induct 147,000 Russians between April 1 and July 15.
They too are all going to die. Sadly.
Not for their country, dulce et decorum est, pro patria mori etc., but to die for the great and powerfulWizard of Oz Putin's miscalculation in kick-starting a never-ending war with no clear or rational endgame in mind.

Must be running out of meat for the grinder I suspect! So very sad to see this in this day and age.

I have no experience in this kind of tactical flying (other than in the back of helicopters round S Armagh), but at that height and speed would the pilot even be looking at the altimeter, especially with steam gauges?
