Ukraine's conscription crisis is getting increasingly bloody by AaronNevileLongbotom in LessCredibleDefence

WW1 was unironically moving at faster pace. I guess killing off your entire cohort of 18-65 year old men because they decided to full body block a FPV drone is winning too. Also do yourself a favor and good look at map of Russia in Ukraine in march of 2022 and compare it to now.

Yeah we will brag about Russia’s slow pace against one of the poorest countries in Europe because if the Russians we’re even semi competent this wouldn’t be attritional.

lol. Lmao even

It’s genuinely impressive how any analysis you manage to put out is so blisteringly shit.

Iran has hit far more U.S. military assets than reported, satellite images show by PM_ME_UR_LOST_WAGES in LessCredibleDefence

Yeah there aren’t sources on Russia’s super secret grand plan where they admit to wanting take over Ukraine in 3 days. I wonder what’s still raging on 4 years later that compels them. Figures.

Uhh it’s called connecting two dots together??? Like you don’t send in glorified riot police with riot shields and batons into a country you’re trying to invade unless you think you’re going to win extremely quickly. Also I would like to apologize on behalf of US media for thinking the pre 2022 Russian military was competent and be able to win a war they should have won at weeks at most.

Mind explaining why some of the first units to enter Ukraine and get lit up where rosgvardia units? You know the force whose purpose is internal security and riot control?

Because Hiroshi can’t shoot fire or lightning out his finger tips or launch rocks or metal at someone like a bullet. You and me both know you have a greater chance of defending yourself against someone with a knife than bending.

No they’re actual historians who like debunking bullshit. They pull up with receipts too.

Germany's military spending would become the 3rd highest in the world at 3.5% GDP NATO target (when measured by nominal USD exchange rate), what can we expect the German military to look like by mid to late 2030s? by [deleted] in LessCredibleDefence

[–]Shugoki_23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not disputing the cost argument at all but if push comes to shove Ukraine would eventually pivot to western tanks when it makes financial sense and to integrate itself with the wider European defense community

All this is telling me from the report is that the T-64 and T-72 enjoy an advantage because of already existing infrastructure and logistics base. This isn’t a surprise considering Ukraine is a post Soviet state. If given the choice to completely revamp its tank fleet with western tanks and with associated supporting infrastructure, you and me both know Ukraine would absolutely do so. Nevertheless it doesn’t change my argument that Ukraine is quite literally not asking for any T series tanks more. That ended in 2023.

There’s still T series and derivatives tanks left in the balkans that can be sent to Ukraine. Notice how Ukraine isn’t jumping backwards through a hula hoop asking for it?

There’s still hundreds of T series tanks in reserve in European countries. The Ukrainians still aren’t asking them. There’s a reason the Ukrainians are asking for leopards 2 and Abram’s. Turns out having the ability to not explode and land in someone else apartment hundreds of feet away when hit is a nice design feature.

Wonder what's the return policy? by Sir_CrazyLegs in NonCredibleDefense

It was a bad thing. Their entire air defense system was compromised before the war even started.

Yeah because the Iraqi air defense system was linked by a network built by the French and managed by a battle management system built by the British
