>"The state of Israel will always remain committed to Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity," he said, telling the assembly that his country was "working to provide Ukraine with early warning systems to save civilian lives from Russia's indiscriminate missile and drone attacks."

How much would this help defend Ukraine's key infrastructure against Russia's rocket and drone mass attacks? Would this be integrated into Ukraine's AA systems or just "sound the alarm" whenever there is another of Monke's chimpouts?

you are one of those retards who claims they just enjoy brown people killing each other while rooting for anyone who takes anti-western stances because you are butthurt despite having been born in the best region of this mudball still managed to go sour on your life. Or maybe you are just some MENA-fag seething about how your entire civilization and peoples have been getting wrecked for 700 years now and what you have managed to get fixed was due a few enlightened autocrats admitting you needed to westernize.

Come to think these two types of people are more or less the same.

>In the Summer of 1985 crashed a Soviet Su-15 (Flagon) in international waters in the Baltic Sea off Liepaja, Latvia. Now, twenty-five years after the tragic tragic event, Viggen pilot Göran Larsson can tell us what really happened.
>The Cold War had its moments when things got heated. There were many incidents along the border between East and West. Not least over the Baltic Sea, the water that Communist propaganda called the Sea of Peace. For non-aligned Sweden, with its position midway between the blocs, it was natural to be on the alert, partly to guard its neutrality, partly to gather information.
>On Sunday 7 July 1985, Military Command South sent an order to the reconnaissance squadron on standby, "Martin Röd" at Bråvalla Air Wing F 13 in Norrköping - naval forces from the Warsaw Pact were training in the south-eastern part of the Baltic Sea and the first squadron was tasked with keeping an eye on them.
>It was a relatively routine mission for the time. But the aircraft - numbered 'Ftg 41 T' - was to be one of the more dramatic. "Martin Rod 03" was an SH 37, a Viggen in a version for maritime surveillance. The aircraft took off from its home base in Ostergötland with Captain Goran Larsson at the controls. After about 35 minutes, Larsson made contact with the practising ships just outside the Soviet territorial waters.
>"The Russians met me straight away. A rote Su-15 Flagon F for the welcome- I concentrated on identifying the ships in the northern part of the "cake", the reconnaissance line for the group of ships. It was spread out with a few kilometres between units. There was some swinging. One of the Russians hung on next to me while the other waited a bit away," says Larsson.
>Encounters with foreign powers' aircraft over the Baltic Sea were not uncommon. But having them in your wake for a long period of time, while a reconnaissance mission involving data collection and photography was being carried out, could be both stressful and disruptive.

you probably shouldn't read the USMIA commission reports about the unconfirmed fates of RB-29 crews

>A former fishing vessel radio operator related that the Captain of his fishing vessel told him that "not all the crew members of the American [aircraft] had, in fact, died back then (in June) and that ten of those people were now in pre-trial solitary confinement in a prison in the city of Svobodnyy, near Blagoveshchensk."
>A former Dalstroy official "was not in the least surprised by [high ranking soviet source's] question. He replied at once: 'Yes, at first ten people were alive. Yes, first they were brought to Khabarovsk. But, then, of course, they were sent off to Svobodny
>A second former Dalstroy official repeated almost word- for-word the testimony of [the first Dalstroy official] but went on to clarify: "The guys from within ‘worked over' the Americans so badly that only eight were taken to Svobodnyy.
>an advisor to a minister stated "he did learn the names of two crewmembers of that aircraft, Bush and Moore, who will forever remain in the soil of the Khabarovsk Region

>RB-29A Serial #44-61810 shot down over Sea of Japan June 13, 1952
>Crew: Major S. Busch (pilot in command), Captain J. Sculley, Captain S. Service
>MSgt. D. Moore, MSgt. W. Homer, SSgt. W. Blizzard, SSgt. M. Monserrat, SSgt. L. Bonura, SSgt, SSgt. R. Becker, SSgt. E. Berg, A1C D. Pillsbury

In theory
In practice even if the war ended in Russia's favor tomorrow i'm not sure i'd consider it a win. I'm pretty sure even the Russian's have to admit that KIA's are well over 100k by this point. To say nothing of WIA's. That said the war won't end tomorrow and Russia's casualties will only continue to mount as will the backlog of vehicles that they've been sitting on will continue to shrink day in and day out beyond what they can produce.

How have the Russians and Ukrainians actually been fighting each other? Lazy maps always show something like entire companies to battalions launching 'attacks' against enemy companies and battalions in generic defensive positions. My question is: what is the actual layouts that these military units are actually using? How are the defensive positions actually set up? I'm tired of anon's posting pictures of "the current situation on the front" just for there to be non descriptive rectangles that aren't really showing anything like pic related.

Would anon's be willing to share either actual map overlays or at least draw up more realistic defensive set ups than what we typically see like in pic related?

Yes, the pederast Mafia spam is because of the new phase of the rapists' offensive, the one after Adviivka or whatever.

>>61567156
I just keep watching these videos that are like "Russians attack Ukrainian position and get DESTROYED" just to watch the video and see like a squad's worth of infantry fire at a Ukrainian trench that has like six guys in it from 300 meters away, just to then leave. I wouldn't really call that an "attack". A real attack would imply entire battalions attempting to advance along an axis to take a major objective, not some small scale skirmish that looks more like a probing attack than anything else just to gain info.

>>61566997
Basically two big mobs with a handful of what we would consider "professional" units sprinkled around to deal with really important stuff. Both sides for the most part have devolved into really well coordinated militia.

>>
>>61566997
In areas with extensive trenchworks, it's WW1, but like that 90's sci-fi movie about the burrowing hunter-killer drones that roam battlefields killing anything with a heartbeat. Everywhere else it's 10 guys in a building, who get spotted by drones, attacked, flanked, then one side retreats 500m.
