What could China or Russia do if the West is intent on destroying the very world order they created themselves?
I think we discussed this a few pages back.
I am not sure all those countries are in same boat. EU decline may give incentives to Europhiles Russians to take jobs back in Russia there are several millions of them. Samsung used to store alot of appliances and electronics in big warehouse in Russia to dispatch rest of Europe. the point is more countries will trust Russia for storing products and wealth seeing they not randomly seize physical products on outside direction. it is Europe hysteria that is damaging it.
Russia do yearly exercises. Russia used to send tremendous cargo flights when Syrian war was at peak. at that time avoiding Turkish airspace. so long distance from multiple bases flying through several countries.
Russia delivered S-400 through 72 cargo air flights to Turkey. this give you idea how intensely they use airpower.
by not following globalization Russia is only nation that can make alot of aviation products 100% domestically. they were the first to fully vaccinate soldiers / Rostec that ensure training and deployments of equipment for this campaign. this Belarus was in additional axis that was never trailed on this scale. they also developed AESA radar satellite by same company that produce tactical missiles so the skill set in an organization are very diverse. Countries who are weak in fundamental science make dysfunctional policies to attract best and brightest and make the residem in an expensive city with high salary before there brain can function on innovation.
these are battle proven systems from desert heat to extreme cold of arctic. i doubt any one will replicate it and that technological gap will increase once modernization and training implemented on fundamentally sound platforms.
That’s not true. The world order they created is the one in which specifically the US exercises permanent military and financial hegemony, Not one in which everyone play by the same clearly defined rules, and if someone persistently plays the game by the rules better than the US, the US would gracefully cede its hegemonic position.
The old world order has not ended. It has just become more barefaced.
Ukraine’s general staff reports that Russia has lost 19,500 soldiers and 58,500 wounded. These numbers are so ridiculous. That would mean Russia lost 40% of the 200k invasion force. The Pentagon has put a more realistic number of 4K dead and 7k wounded. I think the Ukrainians are projected and that’s their true losses. If those losses were true then Ukraine is two weeks away from Moscow.
Strange numbers... we don't see field hospitals full of wounded anywhere. You cannot hide 58 500 wounded...
Obviously the Russians are using their mobile crematoriums to cremate the wounded... while alive.
Only have a second to post. Still at work. Saw this and laughed:
