Russia Ukraine Update Thread - part 3

a reply to: Oldcarpy2

He is correct about the Russian fighters being superior to the F-16.

But the fact of the matter is they still won't enter into Ukrainian airspace for very obvious reasons.

Mainly down to mere MANPADS.

And F-16 is a plane from the mid-70s.

Picture them against the likes of the F-35 or even the Typhoon and they would be lucky to detect them before they were blown out the sky.

I dont think they would even see the likes of the F22 coming. LoL

a reply to: andy06shake

Yes he is. But the F16s have been significantly upgraded since it entered service.

But yes, up against modern 5th Gen aircraft, Russian Air Force would fare badly.

Let's hope we never get to that.

a reply to: Oldcarpy2

Well the way Russia is heading, and at the rate they are going, i dont think they will have much left to fling at Europe by way of an airforce aside from ballistic missiles and even those must be in rather short supply.

As to finding out, god no, i mean that would be a really bad day.

a reply to: andy06shake

If they are bogged down in Ukraine they have sod all chance against NATO, or even just Poland come to that.

Meanwhile, China looks on at Russia with who knows what intent?

Just something to ponder.

Hmmm... who's next on Putins list?

Any nation next to Russia that cannot properly defend itself from invasion springs to mind.

Pretty much the same reason that a few of the old soviet bloc nations choose to join NATO.

Fear of invasion and occupation from Russia.

No, you didn’t.

You posted some links about a fake rumor. Not one had proof/quotes of Putin stating he put a “October 1st” deadline himself lol

Keep trying. And try better.

I see you lack any actual sources of your own, whilst trying to deny the sources I've posted.
Keep trying. And try better indeed.

Ukraine takes control of huge Black Sea oil and gas rigs in devastating blow to Putin

Ukraine has captured oil rigs in the Black Sea as Kyiv's forces deal another blow to Vladimir Putin's Russian war machine.

Posting on Telegram, the Ukrainian State Border Service (DPSU) released images of the battle for the gas production towers near Snake Island, a Ukrainian territory that lies close to Romania's east coast.

Putin red-faced after his £11,500,000 stealth drone is shot down by his own warplane

Russian pro-war Z channels initially claimed euphorically that a Ukrainian war plane had been hit by its attack aircraft.

But burning wreckage on the ground in a residential area near Ukrainian-controlled Kostiantynivka shows the downed fuselage to have distinct Russian insignia.

Military Informant later updated its report to say: ‘Another video clearly showing the fall of the heavy attack UAV S-70 Hunter over Kostiantynivka.

‘Of course, the interesting question is what it was doing there and why it was shot down by a Su-57 flying behind him. But we are unlikely to find out.’

I do have a source: your numerous fake rumored articles about Putin giving a “Oct 1st” deadline.

Because he never stated that. It’s been checked everywhere

lol

Whichever way you want to spin Kursk and obfuscate, it's not good for Putin.

I see you're just trying to rubbish the articles with nothing to offer other than 'it's fake'!! I posted mutiple stories all saying the same thing from different news agencies.

Shoveling all that Putin propaganda must be really bad for your back!! All because you blame the west for Serbia being stopped from commiting genocide....

a reply to: Kurokage

Yeah, those poor put upon Serbs and the evil West.

Srebenica, anybody?

Convicted Serbian War criminals?

Greater Serbia?

Genocide.

We stopped it.

Some folk seem to be butt hurt by that.

They finally officially have taken what is left of Vulhedar or however you spell this town.
Took them years and thousands of KIA, but they got it.

Some more footage of recent activities and archive Kursk footage brought by War Leaks. Each clip is narrated and analyzed by the author as it happens, so you know what is going on as it happens. Lots of FPV drone activity from both sides, but there was a nice 1 V 1 between a Ukrainian and a Russian manned BMP's . The Ukrainian group won that battle. There is also some improvised methods in view here as well.

History Legends released a video a week ago analyzing the Russian war of attrition tactics and goes deep into numbers and methods, backed with footage and various legacy media statements.

I lost count, is it the Motherland or the Fatherland?

a reply to: Oldcarpy2

oh you better tighten up and respect the non-binary. Once freedom and Democracy win, Ukraine will make it known as the Theyland.
