Putin scuppered as Ukraine unleashes 'revolutionary' new weapon to outgun Russia

The facts remain unchanged. Russia has let a smaller army in a smaller second rate country fight them to a standstill.

Temporarily . That doesn't change the fact that the world's worst bully got its ass whipped by jungle villagers and desert herdsmen.

Don’t forget. The bully also had the best weapons and technology in its favor.
The bully went against a determined force outside their own land.
Sound familiar?

Yeah Russia only real weapons ae cruise missile , which it has a limited number of, and drones now with the patriot missile system Russia will lose its advantage on cruise missiles. Ukraine will keep pounding their supply depots with HIMARS. The Russian army can't fight without food or ammunition. It's just a matter of time.

Russia should learn from that fact and should cut their losses now and go home. Besides Russia could subdue a trial country after a decade and had to run home in defeat. Ukraine isn't tribal and is decimating Russia's military much more than Afghanistan ever did.

The Kremlin's army enjoyed a huge advantage in terms of personnel and equipment over its western neighbour prior to the invasion in February.

Vladimir Putin's army is being outgunned and outwitted by Ukraine's much smaller forces thanks to the "revolutionary" application of AI, according to Western military experts. The UK's Ministry of Defence estimated that Russian commanders had at their disposal as many as 900,000 active military personnel, of which almost 200,000 were committed to the invasion.

Furthermore, Russia boasted more than 13,000 tanks, just under 6,000 artillery pieces and close to 20,000 armoured vehicles in its arsenal prior to the unleashing of hostilities.

In comparison, Kyiv has just 196,000 active military personnel, according to the International Institute of Strategic Studies (IISS).

Ukraine's army also possessed just over 2,000 tanks, 1,960 artillery pieces and 2,870 armoured vehicles when the war broke out.

Despite this huge Russian advantage in terms of offensive weapons, Ukraine's army has inflicted a series of humiliating defeats on Putin's generals and managed to reclaim more than 70,000 square kilometres of occupied territory.

The key to Kyiv's success lies in its access to and application of AI technology developed by the US tech firm, Palantir - a firm co-owned by the billionaire Peter Thiel.

Ukraine's commanders are skilfully using the advanced software produced by the company, to help their artillery units deliver more accurate and deadlier strikes against Russian positions and logistical supply

Maybe they could use that AI to fund their war other than on the backs of the U.S. taxpayer.

No- half a world away. The Ukrainian territory was half-Russian when it started.

In 2001 when the last census was taken it was 17.3% Russian. Where do you get 50% ?

Most of the Russian speakers in Ukraine are firmly Ukrainian, just like Zelenskyy. The Crimea is the only area that has a significant number of supporters of Russia.

That doesn't seem to be as serious as losing two decades-long wars to jungle villagers and desert herdsmen. But then- you ARE a brain-scrubbed establishment boot-licker

Both the USA and USSR had no trouble invading Afghanistan. The USA had no trouble destroying the Iraqi Army, twice. Russia cannot defeat Ukraine in the field. We are not talking about problems holding the country, but just problems taking the country in the first place.

This is the first sign in a long time that smaller countries can not only resist an occupation, but can openly defeat an invasion. Countries like China are now trying to figure out whether Ukraine is stronger than they thought, or if Russia is far weaker than they thought. It is an important question, because China is trying to decide whether they should do a similar invasion of Taiwan.

Russia is begging Iran for drones, and is begging North Korea for artillery shells. That is not what a superpower does.

Thanks! Hope you had a Very Merry Christmas! And hope you have a Very Happy New Year Neighbor!

It was a great game. It was good to see Minshew get a chance to play again! He was impressive. The Eagles are a good match-up for the Cowboys! I'm sure we will be playing them again, before the Superbowl!

Russia is a massive country with massive resources and massive factory-power. The notion that it could not produce thousands of drones at short notice is laughable.
