      Even non-stealth, ballistic missiles are harder to shoot down than cruise missiles simply because of their speed.

      Hee-mars GMLRS are also dumb rockets, but we've seen Pantsirs shooting interception missiles and missing. I'm thinking about the Kherson nightime video, back when She/They/He-mars was making holes in the Kherson bridge.

        This isn't even a factor. You have enough time to calculate an interception firing solution and send it. If they're missing, it's because the crew or the system sucks, probably both. Please note tuat Patriot batteries managed to shoot down air launched ballistic missiles in hypersonic flight.

          It is absolutely a factor, moron. Every firing solution has some error and more speed radically decreases the margin of error you can correct for through feedback control.

      A lot of Russia's issues come from not having good sensor networking. As far as I know, Russian AD systems are not capable of cuing fire solutions off of other systems, which greatly hurts their ability to respond to incoming attacks because they have to wait to get a lock on their own local radar first.

      This is in contrast to the US, where any interceptor asset can piggyback off of pretty much any radar so they can exploit their maximum range its fullest.

        >This is in contrast to the US, where any interceptor asset can piggyback off of pretty much any radar so they can exploit their maximum range its fullest.
        This. It's a huge, huge fricking issue particularly when dealing with something ballistic even if it's "slow", like an ATACMS is still doing IIRC Mach 3. If one just looks at it like
        >"wow, it's going hundreds of km that's lots of time even at Mach 3!"
        that's only true with sensor networking because no AD actually has that whole picture the whole time itself at sufficient accuracy for a firing solution. If it can only start to acquire lock in the final spurt the time shrinks massively. Plus with clusters dispensing is happening into massive numbers of submunitions long before ground impact, at that point it's too late.

        So the window there is smaller when everything is standalone.

      It's technically a quasi-ballistic missile, so it can preform some limited maneuvers. Still, remember how much trouble GMLRS gave them, and those only have a basic canard path correction system.

    >Genuinely not shilling and concern trolling here. I just want to honestly know how serious the situation really is and if/when the aid package will at least stabilize the situation.
    It is serious. Ukraine has been outgunned in artillery volume like 18 to 1, and running out of AD as well. Even with massive benefits of better tech, better intel, better training, kit, morale, being the defender, etc that's still really bad. Quantity has a quality all its own and all that.

    The aid package will help stabilize a ton and while as other anon said it'll take awhile the effect is actually instant, because they've been rationing supplies not knowing if more would come. Now they only need to ration to last a few weeks so they can amp the volume up and be more aggressive again.

    But the aid is only enough to stabilize by all accounts, not go on the offensive. Though that's still useful, they'll be able to dig in as well, and have more time to do what was needed all along but West was too shitty for which is hitting Russia itself as hard as possible. You can't win a modern war as the inferior power without taking it to the enemy.

You're arguing with a hard-right lolbert and somehow you're the one who sees a tax rate of 0.0006% that is nearly perfectly hypothecated to cover TZD continuation as too high. I bow before such extreme ancap autism. It's on a level even beyond private funding of Ukrainian drone drops and reeing about roads. If it were practicable for civil society to fund even bigger and better weapons for the Ukraine then I'd be all over that too, and I can only assume you'd be right next to me founding the Nuclear Breakout Capability for Ukraine charity given how hard you're kvetching about being coerced by the state into paying probably no more than $6/y towards TZD.

And train bridges are hard to take down, because they're fricking designed to handle fricking trains which are heavy as frick. So they're heavily reinforced. Doing major damage to the bridge is still good if they can do it, a few months isn't nothing, but to actually blast the thing would take more then they've got. Or take all they've got and it just isn't that high priority. The US of course could do it but we sadly won't.

          They are so thin on the map I suppose they are bridges or banks. Bridges can be rendered militarily unusable even by smaller GLMRS rockets.
          Ok, one of the roads is on the 5 miles wide land strip, but all other connections are still bridges.

            No, train bridges cannot. Like jesus anon you witnessed this, the amount of damage and energy from that massive kerch bridge blast and setting on fire a fricking fuel tanker was literally hundreds to thousands of times any GLMRS rocket warhead. It didn't take down the train bridge at all only the road side and they had it back up and running within 6-7 months. The much weaker USV attack last year only slowed things for 3 months, and that was still way more then missiles can hold. A GLMRS would maybe stop it for days at best. Bomblets obviously are useless there, but a WAU-23/B unitary warhead is still "only" around 500 lbs of explosive.

            Ukrainians would love to take down the bridge for multiple reasons, and all the good people of Earth would cheer it on. If they could they'd do it. They're not ignoring it, and they've attacked it repeatedly. They can't just fly a B2 over there and drop a GBU-57 on it though. Unfortunately.

          Hit trains and cause delays up the line. Let equipment, engines and stock build up in stockyards while repairs are carried out. Hit the stockyards while they are full, causing further issues. Rail system congests and sorting it out is a cluster frick. Keep hitting it and watch logistics collapse. Track repair teams can't get to the front if tracks are ruined and lies clogged for 100km enroute

            This is beyond the abilities they have as well. You'd either need air dominance or at least air superiority, an ability to do air penetration lacking those things (like stealth bombers), that was you can get close and hit stuff moving that way. Or a very heavy duty long range missile that has enough onboard intelligence to hit a moving vehicle in its terminal phase. Or enough raw numbers to guess. Mach 3 is about 3700 km/h, so it'll take a good 5 minutes for ATACMS to cross that, plenty enough time for a train to have moved already. You can guess of course and hope they don't notice it and speed up/slow down, and if we gave Ukraine lots of them so they could afford to be risky that'd help, but we haven't.
            >Hit the stockyards while they are full
            Jesus anon look at the fricking picture in the OP. 300km is decent range but it's not a tomahawk. They can't even hit the bridge with that at all let alone rail yards in mainland Russia behind it.
            >Track repair teams can't get to the front if tracks are ruined and lies clogged for 100km enroute
            Which would take thousands and thousands of missiles. America has them, Ukraine does not. And more importantly that'd be a huge waste vs a ton of other things to hit. You're still pissing away over $1.5m in advanced missile on some steel, wood and gravel. The economics don't work at all. You use that kind of mass accurate missile to obliterate enemy air, AD, C&C, counter battery, and a thousand other things not railroad.

                Every single megacity has either or both of two things: exceptionally fertile soil, or something that allows them to harvest crops multiple times a year to feed themselves (Mexico City, Cairo, Delhi ) or immediate ocean access so food can be shipped in. (Beijing, Cairo, Istanbul).

        Even ziggers can adapt given enough time, they're very slow at it and still can't handle some stuff but they have no had a year. Tsar Monke is more willing to burn down his country and more able to do it, and force them to accept more in their already shit lives, so he's been able to move Russia to a full war footing and just keep throwing meat whereas Ukraine actually gives a shit about its people, hence trying hard to hold to a minimum 27yo for draft purposes.

        Also, it's always easier to be on the defense, but Ukraine didn't (reasonably) want to get locked into a static war along frozen lines, they really wanted to try to liberate their people and territory. They didn't have enough training and material for that though which left them worse off then if they'd just gone full bunker last July instead. Hindsight is 20/20 though.

              They have legacy soviet production lines also all of their thirdie coalition axis countries maximizing their production. We never had shell production capabilities of this size because unlike third world militaries we focus on air superiority instead of artillery (which we can just JDAM to shit). And without going into at least partial war economy we would never surpass them.
              >still seem to have enough tanks to stage offensives
              From satellite images we can determine that they depleted >60% of their equipment in storage. Russians ramped up their tank "production" to several hundred a month but it's mostly through repairing old hulls with cannibalized parts from vehicles in even worse condition. The production of new vehicles is still very low at this point. We even stopped seeing a certain types of vehicles since they basically went into extinction as their production was halted decades ago and all the existing ones were destroyed. I think realistically they still have equipment for about 1,5-2 years of a war of attrition this size.

              I think the Russian military, the ground forces will collapse before that happens and that the returning deserters will destabilize Russia further. The murder rate is already up 900%. Most critically the Russian economy is cannibalizing itself financially, confiscating foreign currency from Russian businesses, essentially reverting to communist state command economics with all the dystopian mis management that entails. I though it was awesome they felt compelled to have a foreigner sniff bread in Moscow, desperation level 11/10. Those missing 300 billion in foreign reserves...desperately needed. Russia is out of money. The war chest is gone. No one will lend to it and assets in Russia are viewed as essentially worthless.

            I would like to believe this but timing matters. If Ukraine got no aid it's possible the front would collapse in a massive way before Russia did. Russia being fricked in 10 years doesn't help Ukraine right now. I don't believe Russia has the juice to achieve their original stated aim at all, under any circumstances. They're not going to be able to conquer the country. But getting the entirely of their stolen territories and solidifying the land bridge would still fricking suck. And the US could still frick things up, our 5th column traitors are in no way defeated for the war just a battle. Plus, even if Ukraine does win, there's a big difference in how much blood they have to spend for that. It matters.

            So I in no way am relaxed about it. At best Russia can be fricked but still badly frick others as it goes down.

              That moment in time is gone, the EU has started massive operations to produce and supply arms that start to come online now and just ramp up further. From F16s to additional munitions factories to armor factories to jets. Russia is over. Its quite possible that the French and Poles would go in if it even looked like Ukraine might fall. The EU can supply Ukraine indefinitely and completely outmatch Russia economically.

                Not quite, EU countries are putting in minimal amount of GDP into direct support, about 0,5-1%, whereas Russia is ramping up and already at around 40%, which works out to around ~100 billion vs ~750 billion. Sure, the EU defense sector is ramping up and production is going to kick in but who knows whether the political will to continue and even triple the expenditure to support Ukraine is going to be there in 2 years. We can't write off Russia just yet. Putin is willing to collapse the country to keep himself alive and the rest of them are willing to do it because they don't want to live with the humiliation of being beaten by Ukraine. To their psyche it's about the same level of damage if Cuba fought the combined might of all US forces to a standstill and then caused a complete military defeat.

                Which to be clear is still an absolutely stupendously high level of money in the modern era to be pissing away like they are. You can go back in time and find far higher for sure, the USA actually did hit 40% of GDP, genuine for real GDP, in the heart of WW2. But of course on an absolute level our total GDP was also far smaller, and we were less productive, and less advanced tech, money didn't go as far in terms of $/military capability.

                Ah true, I checked the numbers a while ago, my mistake. US and EU combined are giving more support in that case, but Russia is still outspending them individually and I would expect that 7% to rise substantially. Putin's government has enough support that they could, and likely will, go full war economy. Attacks on Russian refineries and other war production need to increase dramatically. If the rules don't change and we only keep up the pace of support in terms of GDP then this war will drag on until both countries face demographic collapse in the next 20 years.

      because whatever means to damage the bridge again are not of a force so overwhelming it is flawless. Any route won't be exploited until that exploitation has its greatest value, otherwise the Russians will just find an alternative/repair it.
      Similar to a software vulnerability, you use it AND you lose it. So, better make it count.

The specific incident was when ATACMS blasted 3 S-300 batteries in Luganda around the same time the Ka-52s got obliterated.

      S-400 has a very limited ABM capability if it has any at all. It's primarily an anti-aircraft asset. Like the other anon said S-500 is supposed to be the ballistic missile counter so ATACMs have been eating these older systems alive. The 100% need other weapons defending them regardless of the target though, the IADS concept relies on mutual supporting systems with different capabilities.

      I thought pantsir was specifically an anti missile system? They can't seem to intercept storm shadow thoughbeit

      Pantsir is mainly supposed to counter cruise missiles. Ballistic missiles are extremely fast in comparison. Pantsir seems to have issues with missiles actually hitting and issues with detecting LO shit like drones.

      The other massive hole they have is probably slightly more pressing in that they had A-50's up to cover the more sensitive areas. I think they've got at least 4, maybe 5 of those left which probably means you have 1/3rd in overhaul, 1/3rd in refit/provisioning and 1/3rd being on active duty at any one time.
      For a country the size of Russia, that's a massive problem of national security!
      If they where serious about air defense there would have to be 30+ AWACS birds on their roster and if anyone thinks they can magic up a solution overnight to that kind of dilemma... nah! Not happening

      AWACs losses are huge yeah. Another reason CAPs would be exposing themselves too.

But so far they've also avoided being any good at long term, strategic thinking apart from bogging Ukraine down with meat bags and firing off enough missions to keep the fight going.
        If Ukraine has to give up a 200-2000person village say, once a month and it costs 300 armoured vehicles and 20k dead vatniks its a territorial loss, but its coming in at an unsustainable loss to Russia and all the while western aid is now flooding in, long term defence support is being signed with Ukraine and their country is kept solvent.

          >when your missile literally can't see where it isn't.

          The missile doesn't know where it is at all. It doesn't know this because it doesn't care. However, by subtracting where it could be from where it isn't, or where it can't be from where it was (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation.

          The guidance subsystem uses generic vatnik logic to generate anal corrective rape commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a position where it could be, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is, is now the position that it wasn't, and it follows that the position that it was, is now the position that it isn't.

          It is at this point where the missile doesn't know where it is because it no longer cares. it doesn't care because it's a vatnik weapon and all targets are valid targets. to determine where it has to go, the missile figures out where it came from, realizes the innate hopelessness of its existence, and promptly suicides itself against any nearest kindergarten or hospital it can find.

      yeah, they're shaping the battlefield to improve survivability of the coming jets. They wont be able to get air superiority but they'll bet able to cull and suppress immediate threats in Crimea. Russia wont be able the safely base aircraft on the peninsula due to ATACMs so their response time will be longer. Existing SAM sites have been proven vulnerable to drones and ATACMs already, so it'll be a matter of finding and hitting them. This makes Crimea vulnerable and by extension the bridge, at the very least it 100% means the black sea fleet stays well away too.

          There's also some implications for other sections of the front in the scenario that Ukraine is able to really start suppressing assets in Crimea. In a scenario where Russian long range high performance AD is heavily damaged and significant effort is placed into hunting down medium range systems (now made easier but reduced long range threats) it opens up a lot more options for CAS across the Dnipro. They still likely wouldn't win out air superiority but it'll be much more permissive. MANPADS and CAPs would still be a huge problem. Most of the S-300/400 systems that have been destroyed in Crimea haven't actually been the ones set up right next to the bridge but the ones closer to the north side of the peninsula. Assuming they are the ~250km missiles that makes nearly all the airspace above Kherson to just shy of Kryvyi Rih within range. I don't think it's feasible to completely sanitize Crimea of all long range SAMs cause Russia will just reinforce them but they would force Russia to hold it's assets closer to the bridge and make the airspace over Kherson much safer. If they knocked out all batteries north of Sevastopol then the most common S-400 missile in use only has the range to reach right up to the Dnipro and not much beyond that. Theoretically alloying Ukraine to fire JDAMs from higher altitude beyond effective range. IIRC glide bomb effectiveness was low because Ukraine was forced to fly so low and avoid detection.

            There's quite a lot of focus on the armour in terms of their sustainable nature of those vehicles, but the AA systems have their own special hell with them. A lot of the short-intermediate range stuff has been getting blown up, stolen by tractor gypsy and droned to hell and back, which you kind of expect that they're going to eat a bit of shit once in a while being close to the front.
            They are however, very expensive. 10-25mil a throw sort of covers most of them
            So they don't just have thousands of these things lying around in a Siberian rodent sanctuary to pull out of a bog, slap some paint on them and off you go little fella. Once they pop, it takes a bit to get a replacement.

            Bigger SAM systems are just endless cash, individual launchers not so much but the payload is expensive on S300-400 and you're still got to have the detection radar, the networked AA system and the attack radars which are BIG SPEND time. Some of those radars they're hooked up to are 100mil a throw and every time one of them gets evaporated, it could be well over a year before they've made another one. On a frontage scale like Russia has in Ukraine they will need at least half a dozen of those and its completely impractical to have them scattered all through the Russian countryside- If their is a gap it gets real ugly, real quick before anyone can do much about it.
            I mean, they'd have to rely on their airforce to scramble and intercept
            That's not exactly a great option in a hurry and running interdiction missions aren't necessarily something Russia has traditionally been very great at

              Yeah this is why I think the Crimea DEAD campaign will have a big effect and be successful. Building replacements aside if they have to move assets from other areas to cover the losses it'll mean less coverage in said areas. Ukraine's drones already fly into Russia itself easily (even if a lot go down) so even less coverage can have an even larger effect. It'll be long and slow but if Ukraine is extremely careful I can see them over time eating chunks of Russian air defenses. FPVs in particular have been hunting lots of BUKs. HARMs fired from F-16s and not Black person rigged tablets taped to the wienerpit of a MiG should be more effective. It would force the Russian Air Force to potentially engage their planes and expose them more as well. All this in tandem with additional air defense could curb the issue with all the Russian FABs dropping - it'll still happen but they can reduce it. I generally don't hold my breath for shit but Ukraine has been highly competent in the air for the majority of the war so with better tools I hope that they can do more.

                The other massive hole they have is probably slightly more pressing in that they had A-50's up to cover the more sensitive areas. I think they've got at least 4, maybe 5 of those left which probably means you have 1/3rd in overhaul, 1/3rd in refit/provisioning and 1/3rd being on active duty at any one time.
                For a country the size of Russia, that's a massive problem of national security!
                If they where serious about air defense there would have to be 30+ AWACS birds on their roster and if anyone thinks they can magic up a solution overnight to that kind of dilemma... nah! Not happening

            It was the Norwegians that said they don't give a frick where Ukraine uses their F-16. Sucks that burgers have the final word since in that case a lot of them would be with no strings attached.

    Explosions were heard at night in occupied Simferopol and Dzhankoy

    According to locals, the first explosions occurred at about 1:25 am, with more than ten powerful "pops" heard in total. The Crimean bridge was blocked for almost 2 hours.

    According to Krym.Realii, the pops occurred in the places where the russian deployed air defense systems: Bastion and Pantsir-S1 air defense systems.

    It keeps happening and I just don't understand.
    Aren't those things pretty much designed to shoot down aircraft and missiles? Isn't "this is flying literally right at me" situation one of what should be the easiest targets to intercept?

      because Puccians can't properly detect ATACMS, see my post here

      IIRC Puccians accidentally gave out last year that their vaunted S300s and 400s can't detect ATACMS either when launched or on their flight path. The specific incident was when ATACMS blasted 3 S-300 batteries in Luganda around the same time the Ka-52s got obliterated. Some seething zigger made a telegram post about them only being detected by an older air defense system before it was too late.

      These are networked AA systems anon
      So you have a big battery of scanning radars with the long range all set up on the ground, you've got an AWACS overhead providing gap coverage and also the go-no-go in the kill chain. When a missile or aircraft comes into the scanning radars, the AWACS either sees it or the operator of that radar goes
      >'Heads up Pidor, this is coming in on your vector'
      The scanning radar ID's it and in a lot of cases this is centralised in the AWACS with all the big brain guys
      >Got an ID on target, not ours
      The AA missile operator starts pointing their attack radar in that direction, soon as they get a signal and it matches the bearing they'll prosecute it with a strike- hopefully!

      What's happened here is the systems don't seem to be as well networked as they once were. There's been two A-50's shot down by Ukraine and that's gutted their C3 (command, control, communications) with the AA operators, then on top of that there's been big hits all over Crimea wiping out everything from the 100mil Container OHS radars and constant strikes on anything else that's beeping and booping away.
      That just leaves the basic b***h AA command unit, their basic b***h scanning radar, the attack radar to lock on and whatever launch modules are in their company.

      This is why its not the speed or range of your missiles is important in AA, they can be accurate and hit bullseyes all day. What matters is one thing

      What's more grim is that it's not even that Russia keeps pushing back Ukraine those 4 miles. Those 4 miles were just the open ground to reach the new line of defense.

          I meant more specifically the "total collapse of the front" after Avdiivka. Because Russo shills can't comprehend the concept of setting up a new line that isn't 10 feet from the lost line because all they care about is painting the map not actual strategic thought.
