I have an idea. Every time someone uses the total number of Russian mortar + 122 + 152 ammo production to 155mm production, they have to donate 1/4 of their salary to the Czech ammo purchase. Does that seem fair?
Compare 152 to 155, 122 to 105 and mortars to mortars or stfu and don't say anything at all.
Also, comparing the price of a mortar shell to a 155mm shell: are you stupid?
I bought 4 cups of coffee and you only bought one cow. And I paid only $20 while you stupidly paid $2000. Therefore I am winning.
I can continue buying coffee for 1/100th of the price that you buy your cows. You will never have as many cows as I have cups of coffee. Surrender, it is over for you.

Remember that time Romanov posted a video where he shot a howitzer, and then cut to a shell hitting a house? And how the shell that hit that house killed a civilian? Now, I cannot tell you Romanov fired that exact shell, but he wanted you to think he did.

Anywho, unrelatedly, I am sure:

Russia is taking significant pride in attacking evacuation workers. Here you see a strike on a police car that was responding to a request to evacuate. One police officer was killed, another wounded.
And you see russians posting and bragging about these events. Image

You have to understand that the United States not allowing Ukraine to use weapons outside of Ukraine is not a limitation imposed just Ukraine. No, it goes deeper. This is a fundamentally idiotic concept that applies across the entirety of American military.
It is brain rot that comes from the idiots in charge who believe only the president can agree to make cross border attacks unless the cross border attack is in self defense of imminent harm.
And, somehow, the abject idiocy of the united states, who created this rule to cover their own ass in their own "expeditionary wars", decided that it ought to apply to wars of self defense as well. It is a level of stupid that I don't think people fully grasp.

Russians post a video showing one of their assaults, talking it up saying how well it went.

Americans: LMAO. we're adding this to the training material for how easy it is to fuck up an assault
to sum up the assault:
a bunch of golf carts cross a field with a tank covering them from behind. russians fire smoke, which immediately cuts across the field blinding the tank. russians dismount golf carts, shells start landing. hard to tell who is shooting
a gun to the flank starts shooting at the russians. looks big, maybe 20mm or larger. this plus shelling makes russians run into the trench they are attacking. the tank immediately starts shooting the trench exactly where they entered.

Every time I read someone say something like “Ukraine doesn’t have the resources to counter attack” I genuinely wonder if the person writing the thing is a delusional hack. Of course they don’t, and they never will, and that doesn’t change their ability to win the war.
Ukraine doesn’t need to push Russia back to reclaim its territory. I don’t know which delusional fantasy universe people are living in that makes them think Ukraine needs to do so, but that place isn’t the reality we live in.
Ukraine pivoting to defense isn’t them giving up on retaking land, it is acceptance of reality. And Ukraine’s refusal to accept this reality cost the lives of a lot of men and the morale of the country. That offensive mindset lead to a disaster.

Officer wrote about this today, but it is blatantly obvious just by looking at what vehicles get destroyed and where and how: Russian casualties do not usually come from an assault. They come from trying to build up forces for an assault.
In other words, Ukraine destroys Russians as they drive to the front. Once at the front, the infantry disperse into various underground shelters to hide until such a time a large enough force is gathered to begin assault operations.
The assault operations don’t have nearly the casualties as you may expect. And this is what you hear from Ukrainian assaults as well, where you see Ukrainians say they captured a trench without casualties, but took heavy casualties in the subsequent artillery barrages.
