A little goes a long way thread. In the last 7 days according to @arestovych the Ukr military has destroyed 16 RU ammo dumps using Tochka and HIMARS. 4 in Luhansk and 12 in Donetsk. I remember when people doubted that HIMARS would be a “game….

2-changer” and mocked the fact that initially 4 were being sent. I too criticized the decision to send 4 until I realized that the US had taken the same approach with the M777. At first 18 and then 96 plus. Well HIMARS is now allowing Ukr to make precise strikes on high
3- value targets. Once those are taken out ie CPs and Ammo dumps I’m sure air defenses will be degraded so that Bayrakters can take out other targets such as MLRS and long range arty. The ability for HIMARS and TB2s to take out long range arty allows Ukr to use western SPGs
4-with impunity. This is what will happen over the next 4 weeks. The long range strike capabilities of the Ukrs are improving while those of the RU are starting to be degraded. Now RU has cruise and ballistic missiles but as soon as Ukr air defenses are upgraded with NASAMS
5-that will change too. So the Ukrs must stay the course:
1-take out CPs and Ammo dumps
2-target RU SAM sites
3-use Bayrakter and HIMARS to knock out RU long range MLRS/Arty
4-once the above is done in sequence use concentration of HIMARS, Bayrakters, M777s and SPGs to
1-take out CPs and Ammo dumps
2-target RU SAM sites
3-use Bayrakter and HIMARS to knock out RU long range MLRS/Arty
4-once the above is done in sequence use concentration of HIMARS, Bayrakters, M777s and SPGs to
6- Obliterate RU defensive strong points so that Ukr offensives meet little resistance. The above campaign should last about 5 weeks. By August Ukrs will have cleared the way for them to go on the offensive with little Russian resistance
