Meanwhile back on topic

Remember those Leo’s that Spain wanted to donate to Ukraine many moons ago, but were found to need major overhauls come refurbishment when Germany interjected, well he ho, suddenly they appear to have self repaired themselves and are fit for service.

I some how think this arms dealer has seen his last contract with the Belgique military when acquiring arms from them. Shame they cannot compulsory purchase the company out from under them, or nationalise it.

I’d follow him anywhere ;)

EEU is all shades of grey. It's a hard not to say 'he was exactly trained for exactly you to do exactly that'

Let's hope he keeps walking the just side. For Mil-AV that shall include dismantling their hasty and political commitment to F-35s in favour of more Vipers, EW research, and oversize maintenance and repair facilities for whatever the UKR will be getting. Rocket arty too.

Meanwhile the invested parties started having some fun among themselves directly.

Did Russia invade Afghanistan again? They have been licking their wounds there for a few years.

You are aware that the product of "EW research" blends well with F-35s, aren't you?
EW is in fact, one of the F-35's selling points.

Outside of a third world environment, Vipers are best used as museum pieces.
As long as you're spending all that money, you might just as well get something you can use.

Still not enough.

Looks like the Ruzzian spring offensive is coming rather sooner than later. RU is probably trying to mitigate the arrival of Western tanks in significant numbers by starting in the not so distant future.

No, the Russians have developed an anti tank missile so fast that it can take out US tanks that were in Iraq.

More signs are emerging of preparations for a forthcoming new wave of mobilisation in Russia, including the introduction of 'exit visas' for vehicles leaving the country and the compulsory registration of university students for military service. ⬇️

I reckon that only when we see the likes of MГУ (MGU) and МГИМО (MGIMO) students served with papers should we be worried. They are almost untouchable. The rest may well be seen as canon fodder (

Re Israeli - Iraq air strikes; if these are related to drone production (for use against Israel) then, also,

Effect on drone supply to Russia for use against Ukraine

Is this action connected directly with Ukraine, or via USA, etc.

Politics, world influence, a new 'front' involving supply chain in this war.

​​​​​Who would bet against them all going eventually, poorly trained, ill equipped and badly led to their almost certain deaths. A country allowing a sick old man to destroy its own future. And you're not worried yet?

Exactly what I thought VM. It's either originated from bullish!t propaganda or if true then it's a sign of absolute desperation, which is definitely worrying.

Some positive news - They've arrived and training starts tomorrow.
