It is incredible how overt the west has become in its military support for Ukraine. People can debate if this technically qualifies as a proxy war but this may be the closest we ever get to war with Russia. I don't mean we will be dragged into war but we are clearly seeing how the "assumed" superior western military technology actually does against
Russian military.

Obviously, there are still cards on the table that Russia has still not used and it's not like the West is fully invested but the amount of information that I am sure the Pentagon is collecting on weapon performance is vast. I am no fan of the military-industrial complex but that world must be going crazy right now.

Also -- Thanks again to Ryuu for keeping this thread updated. I honestly check it about once a day.

On both sides, it is just a pretext to test their weapons/ intelligence against the opposition. The US has always tested their weapons, but mostly against pathetic opponents in comparison to Russia. Russia is obviously a dumpster fire right now, but their next war might be even more dangerous now that 100,000s are getting war experience, including the generals and commanders that survive.

I always wonder what is stopping non nuclear Nato allies from opening a new front with Russia to force the war to end. I suppose in the end for example Poland, values 1000 Polish lives over 100,000 Ukrainians.
