As I wasn’t very clear due to space limitations, my fundraiser was for $100k of drones to be donated to GNL, and delivered by @UkraineAidOps. The ambush happened after @harri_est was booted out of UAO for a number of bookkeeping issues. Draw your own conclusions/conmections 1/n

Yes, I was fooled by the imaginative social media dominance the GL created on Twitter. Remember who helped platform them? Myria report, who regularly hosted Reshet, and occasionally Mamuka. This helped grow a highly developed and manipulable social media base of followers. 2/n

Today's Kerch bridge action was another masterstroke of Ukraine's covert operations. Here is one way it could have been accomplished. Caveat: I am only a certified technical diver, and this theory is based off that knowledge and some physics. I could be completely wrong. A 🧵 SSU states they used an equivalency of 1100 kg of TNT. If that information is valid, it means they used something else - either PETN or RDX. I'll assume RDX because it would require only 550 kg. That is still a rather large amount of explosives to covertly place underwater. 1/17

A long thread about the two F-16's ferried from Tuscon to Rzeszow, and what the rest of Ukraine's Antonov 124 fleet was doing at the end of last month. The airframe in this picture is #50801B, the "hero" aircraft. Full information about the fleet's activities in this 🧵👇 1/18 The Ukranian An-124 fleet was saved from the same fate as Mryia. Most were out of the country when the invasion started, and were squirreled away for a few months before returning to duty and helping with the war effort. The fleet is four strong. All dates are based on GMT 2/18

It was an active morning along the Romanian/Ukraine border and Black Sea. This 🧵discusses the activity on this mission. Of ads-b visible aircraft was an Artemis, two RC-135s, a P-8, three AAR, and a mystery French fighter in the Black Sea. Details 👇visualization. 1/6 A closer visualization of the activities around the Delta Danube and Romanian coastline. 2/6

AAR assets in the region:
A332 #3B756A/FAF4091, early departure from France
KC-135 #AE058B, early departure from Poland to track with JAKE17
UK A332 #43C6F3/RRR9954+KAYAK31

Kaliningrad in the spotllight today!! Did not have the time to unpack NATO ISR into a timeline earlier. Apologies. Timeline/plots in this 🧵 BRIO-fencing. Both privately owned sister ISR platforms are leased by LASAI to the 🇺🇸. The newer BRIO66 departed Latvia 05:50 UTC, RTB 13:30 UTC, tasked with northern KGD and Baltic border. BRIO68 departed Constanta 09:20 UTC, RTB 15:55, along the eastern bloc border and N KGD

JSLINT "While I was sleeping" version. This will be a detailed thread based on the last 24-hour observable ISR traffic. Here is the master map, broken down in this thread. This is my punishment for actually getting sleep. #OSINT #flightpaths Before I slept, HOMER21 and BRIO68 were traversing the southern border corridor. HOMER may have been diverted to Constanta around 06:00Z when a Typhoon (likely QFR) sortied into that area. Its ISR 'racetrack' is shortened. As BRIO was already on task, this is unusual.

Doing this early today. Air traffic maps are within this thread. Update later tonight. @SP1AUTOINJECT @IntercityFC @OSINT88 ISR resources. Does not include Lithuanian YANK01, YANK02 (standard paths), BRIO68 (standard southern ISR corridor), the P3 AA33 ISR path, or the P8. Please refer to earlier posts for info. Ads-b reception gaps in SE Romania are primary cause of inaccurate maps.

This yank is hoping to turn in early and be up as dawn breaks in Eastern Europe. Expecting a busy morning after a relatively quiet day in the air. Now, if my neighbors would cooperate... anyone got a spare Neptune? Todays maps in thread; all are last-leg only. #OSINT #flightpaths AAR, last leg only. Note flights along the southern Moldova/Romanian border are in an area with limited open-source ads-b reception, so AAR paths in that region tend to obscure.
