war 

crazy amounts of heavy weapons going to Ukraine, it's no longer a javelin festival. They (we) must win at all cost and the west realizes that

@piggo I seriously wish the story with polish MIGs will play out similarly as it did with the Slovak S-300:
1. how about S-300?
2. mhhhmmm...
3. OK
4. Cheers
5. or not?
6. mhhhmhmmhmh...
7. ....
8. delivered!
9. cheers

But it's been now several weeks since the MIG gaffe, so I am not sure...

re: war 

@FailForward theres talk of sk migs now, the zuzana self-propelled howitzers, there's been a transport of some heavy guns going east filmed today, some american stuff is also being delivered, they're getting or got some anti ship missiles too

re: war 

@piggo thanks, I am trawling the comments. Let's hope it's something. Thanks for good news. I never thought I would be cheering for war, but if we all manage this right, we can live several decades more calmly. Methinks...

re: war 

@FailForward i hope putin does something ultra stupid before the victory day parade (may 9) and it backfires in a major way (hopefully something other than using WMD). commanders will be pressured to bring home progress and so far they mostly progress in ruining the army and, to quote the geneva conventions, "wanton destruction of property"

re: war 

@piggo In all honesty, those Slovak MIGs are a PITA. I don't know how many there are (11?), but actually only like 2 or 4 are operable at any time and even that only with Russian technicians stationed in the country all the time. I.e., those are rather spare parts in a form of a fighter jet packaging than operable aircraft anyway. The sooner they get rid of them, the better.

re: war 

@FailForward yes the same was the case of the S-300, although the apparently managed to somehow patch it up before seeing it off. it's like a yard sale of old soviet shit all across europe
