Anyone who has paid attention to Biden Administration "Escalation Management" doctrine since the Russo-Ukrainian War began is completely unsurprised by this.

US & German "Escalation Managers" want to revoke all previous NATO Summits

DC Escalation Management NATO Summit🧵
1/
...and return Ukraine to its Apr. 2008 Bucharest Summit status as far as accession to NATO is concerned.

That is, -IF- Ukraine will join NATO, not a matter of when, as established in recent NATO conferences.

US & German fear of Russia is absolute.

No one in the Biden Administration or the Scholz Chancellorship has learned the lessons of Georgia-2008, Ukraine-2014, or Ukraine 2022 to date.

Russian reflexive control infowar dominates both.

The White House political agenda at the summit seems to be to shut down all Eastern European initiatives supporting Ukraine's military and break up the now predominant Scandio-Baltic-East European/UK/French bloc in NATO.

BLUF:

The Biden Administration has destroyed US credibility in NATO via its cowardice in dealing with Russia.

The Biden National Security Council and State Department both seem incapable or unwilling to understand these developments.

This will be remembered.

The idea that:

"Camouflage will save Artillery from drones” just got hit in the breach block.

Quadcopter drones can stalk you through trees and brush like a mine carrying suicidal infantryman that can fly.

Drone War HR🧵
1/
There is no such thing as cover or dead ground for infantry, artillery, or armor to hide from FPV drones.

"Cover" consists of actively sensing if you are in radio line of sight of an operational drone.


2/
"Every ground combat soldier an electronic warfare operator" is where we are going in the next three years.

The human resource implications of this transformation for Western armies are devastating.

White smoke is gasoline.

Black smoke is jet fuel.

This was Ukrainian inflatable MIG-29 decoy whose gasoline generator fuel tank blew up.

Reading the smoke is not just for Catholics🧵

This is a stock jet fuel fire image from a fire fighting exercise, note the black smoke.

A gasoline station station fuel pumps burning makes white smoke.

Smoke color means things, even if you are not Catholic.

@secretsqrl123 has gotten a lot of guff because he called out the sub-standard Russian potable water logistics into Kherson.

The people doing so are demonstrating their H20 logistical incompetence.

I did a 'net search on "Desert Hydration" that found this chart⬇️

H2O🧵
1/
Image
That military chart came from the article at the link.

It gives you an idea exactly how bad a logistical situation the Russians are in with potable water in Kherson.

You need 19 liters of H2O working at 43 Deg. C, which is 109 deg. in freedom units.

The crossover ambient temperature that causes a doubling of potable water requirements is 38 deg. C or 101 deg. in freedom units.

You go from 1/2 a liter of water a an hour to one liter an hour to function.

@secretsqrl123 was low balling by talking 4 liters a day for 100K.

Oh heck yes, AFU is hunting Russian H2O trucks! ⬇️

@secretsqrl123 has sussed out the Russian potable water supply chain and it involves a thrown together bubba engineering with palletized IBC containers used by restaurants for vegetable oil.

Russian H2O supply chain🧵

1/
This is an ICB container.⬇️

Six were on that Russian truck.

Likely they were man-handled onto the truck empty, lashed down, and filled by hose.

2/ Image
This is a Russian IBC water container that was burnt to nothing in a forest fire.

The RuAF Bubba-engineering IBC water truck rolls up to one of these and refills it with a gravity fed hose.

Note the steel pail & bottles to move water to trenches⬇️

I've been asked to post my four appearances on Paul Woodadge's @WW2TV youtube channel to X.

This was about MacArthur's "Wild Weasel" radar hunters before the term was invented.

Dr Bellamy was PhD heavy lifter here.

Section 22 Radar Hunters

This is the story of Master Technical Sergeant Dermott H. MacDonnell and how his performance as chief radar operator for Marine Air Group 23’s (MAG-23) SCR-270 radar...

...made the difference between keeping and losing daylight air superiority over Henderson Field in the darkest days of the Guadalcanal campaign.

And why you don't know this.

What you are seeing here is the world changing as the barriers to entry to strategic bombing fall.

OWA Drones carry 1/5th the warhead of a Tomahawk just as far for 1/10th the cost.

There are many who say this means OWA drone can't hurt enough target sets to be effective.
1/
Strategic bombing history says otherwise.

Incendiary devices were 10 times as effective at destroying urban areas than high explosive per unit mass per the US Strategic Bombing Surveys'.

2/ Image
Sending twice the warhead mass of incendiaries of a unitary explosive warhead Tomahawk for the same price is 20 times as effective and requires 10 times the air defense missile warshot or gun based ammunition to protect any target.
