If what Putin said about the miltary operation being according to plan and on schedule, then I guess russia knew what it was doing when it refused to send the bulk of it's airforce and simply decided to take the loss
I also failed to notice the problem pointed out by Putin about the Crimean front.
Is it true that if Ukraine joins NATO, they will bully Russia out of Crimea because they don't recognise as part of it's territories?

University of Chicago students circulating a letter calling for the cancellation of John Mearsheimer over “Putinism,” “anti-Ukrainian ideology,” and spreading Russian disinformation like that there was a coup in 2014 and it included fascists.

Apparently some people think you need to call for firing for it to be a cancellation. Ridiculous. Gathering a mob to have a university denounce a scholar for his views and demanding he “clarify” his views (he can’t be more clear) to the mob falls under the same umbrella.

America has been falling to a new low!

From "we will never surrender even an inch of our territory " to "we can discuss this".
Its amazing what a few days of war can do to you..

"BREAKING: Zelensky answers question about the possibility of recognizing Crimea as Russia and the republics of Donbass: “we can discuss this and find a compromise on how people will live there”

What do you mean what happened? That’s how the Soviet and then Russian army always fought. Messy, overly aggressive, lacking subtlety and finesse, but undeniably effective and ultimately irresistible.

They just didn’t really improve as much as most were expecting/hoping.

But again, what we see being pumped and boosted on social media are just inconsequential skirmish level losses for the Russians at the end of the day. The Ukrainians are not winning any of the major battles that matter.

while losing multiple Su34? How much is this plane

This may work for Russia

well I hope the Chinese are watching and learning

this is a 1980s USSR army we are watching against modern infantry with high end ATGM + MANPADS

there is very little in the way of advanced tactics being used by Russians

Few members were arguing about this Oryx dude a couple dozen pages back, whether he is Turkish propagandist or not.
He is pro Turkish and also a member of Turkish defense forum (Defense hub), he posts there when he writes another article. He also mentioned there that he is learning Turkish and have plans to move there (NOTE: might be mistaken with the moving part).
His lists of lost equipment have some flaws e.g The list of equipment lost to Afghan Taliban's by mighty Afghan army is severely flawed compared to what the Taliban's government is saying or showing, (Source : @MJalal313 on twitter).

new reported Russian equipment losses:

I'm not sure if you noticed or not, but there are very few photos of actually destroyed tanks, showing that ATGMs aren't that useful. The tanks are just abandoned if they break down or run out of fuel, in accordance with Russian doctrine. Russia is also losing less planes than US during Vietnam, and nobody thought Vietnam was winning.

Ukraine is actually using 1980's USSR gear for everything other than infantry weapons and it shows - their entire navy got sunk and they have no air to air kills.
