Gorth Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Ethics aside and just looking at the technical side of things, Russia made two significant military blunders. Not having twenty first century communication technology and a complete lack of modern air warfare doctrine. Ironical that Ukraine is calling for the US to start fighting Russian planes when they are hardly there to begin with. Russia has no air superiority whatsoever. Much of the rest of that military disaster that is the ground campaign follows from those two issues. An enemy that knows your every move and lack of timely intel/reconnaissance Two lessons they need to learn… some day. 1 “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

Malcador Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 I guess all the "Close the sky" stuff is useful to just have Westerners pressure their governments for it, but the government can give everything but that and it'll be ok. Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
