Mirage 2000-5Fs May Become Very Important in Ukraine Due to ITAR

Trump may invoke ITAR to prevent Ukraine from using the F-16s on russian soil or something else that's stupid, so the mirage 2000s could be a work around that rule.

How Russia Revives Soviet-Era Punitive Psychiatry in Ukraine’s Occupied Territories

Fvcking brutal article about the soviets and what they would do to dissidents. The practice for such people that were a real thorn in the USSR's side was to declare them mentally insane, and then send them to an asylum or worse (article mentions some people being injected with turpentine). The practice then left enough mental trauma onto the person so as to give them ptsd and yeah this has a big effect on how you function.

I hope this motivates Ukraine even more and makes it worse for Russia. Russia is beyond evil and they deserve all of their horrible casualties, hell they deserve more than what they are getting.





Covert Cabal counted Russia's tank and AFV decline since the start of the war:

Russia is basically losing over 1000 tanks a year, and Russia still has over 3000 left. Sounds like they can go for another 2-3 years? Well, no, because those 3300 left are almost all in such terrible shape that they will need very extensive repairs to even function again, let alone to be of any use on the battlefield. In other words, it gets more and more difficult to replace the tanks for Russia.

The translucent lines are the total numbers as counted, while the thicker lines represent vehicles that are actually in any usable shape, and also includes vehicles that were in garages, hence why it's originally higher than what was visible at first. So yeah, not very much left that is of any use.

And here's a little breakdown of what's left, by tank type:

No more T-90, the T-80 is becoming an endangered species and barely any T-64 have come out of storage, so those are probably all junk. Which leaves Russia mostly just with T-72 and T-62, plus a few T-54/55, several of which are actually turned into BTS-4B Armored Recovery Vehicles.

What about the T-72's?  Don't they have autoloaders? are there any charts that breakdown how well preserved they are?  I'm thinking that the T-72s will be in worse shape because the autoloader tanks need to be maintained more carefully, which they Russians don't give a squat about since they are orcs after all.

In the video he details that he did in the past, but also that Russia might try to bring them all back to life just because they simply can't produce enough new ones. Of course, the higher the rate of disrepair the longer it takes and the less efficient it is to repair them, up to a point where it's getting pointless to even try bringing them back in any shape.

Another thing to consider is the possibility of Russia to buy North Korean tanks to fill the gaps for a while. North Korea has plenty of T54/55 and T-62 (all versions combined, over 3000 of them, though some got upgrades that would easily mark them as Korean instead of Russian vehicles) that Russia could buy instead of trying to repair the wrecks that they have.

However, this only works for tanks as NK hasn't nearly that much in terms of APC and pretty much zero IFV, so even if they could get by with the Tanks that way, anything else will become very limited starting summer.





Thomas Massie really is a piece of shit, I wish we could send him to the Ukrainian frontlines instead, although he'd almost certainly defect to Russia since he already seems to believe he's in Russia.

(He's just crying about helping Ukraine on his Twitter).

We're about to see a lot more of this when Trump comes into power, a bunch of degenerate freaks screaming about how "we shouldn't help Ukraine!" because "we should be helping our own people!" and those same fucking morons will keep the military budget the same and change nothing about America except find the next thing to blame all your issues on.

Twat.

A major exchange between Ukraine and Russia took place on the Belarusian border: 189 Ukrainians are now home, with the UAE acting as a mediator. This 11th exchange of 2024 freed 87 servicemen of the AFU (17 from Territorial Defense), 43 National Guard, and 33 Border Guard.

The POW exchange included 11 members of the 12th Azov Brigade. After nearly 3 years of unimaginable trials—86 days defending Mariupol, brutal battles, imprisonment, interrogations, and torture—they endured it and are finally home.

The first moments when Ukrainian POWS were returned from Russian captivity today. Tears of joy, running and speaking to their beloved ones.
