        It's what would be least expected by the Russians (and everyone else). So obviously Russia will likely have less troops there, making it a perfect place to attack (assuming you can get across the river).

        Why?
        1. They have a mostly intact bridge that could still be repaired. Russia isn't nearly as adept as Ukraine at taking out bridges. It would also be good bait to destroy Russian aircraft who try to take it out.
        2. They got a ton of bridging equipment from allies to build mobile, moveable, alternatives that Russia can't really defend against. Ukraine had trouble with Russia doing the same thing.
        3. They have boats and barges to move additional supplies.
        4. It is at the extreme end of Russia's supply lines, making it hard area to resupply if Russia gets into an extended engagement.
        5. Russia doesn't have many troops there compared to other places of advance. It would also possibly collapse other defensive lines as they tried to pull back and defend Crimea.
        6. It outflanks a lot of their prepared defenses to avoid fortifications.
        7. Although it has risks due to the limited supply across the Dnipro, Kherson is a major hub, so getting supplies there is easy, it will only be the last 1KM that is a challenge.
        8. Ukraine has been hitting Russia positions for months
        9. Ukraine has removed the civilians locally for OPSEC.

          no they dont the dnepr isn't a creek. none of the bridgelaying vehicles ukraine has/got can make a bridge across it why do you think russia was forced to make shitty pontoon bridges when they also have bridgelaying vehicles

            >when they also have bridgelaying vehicles
            I can answer this, actually. I discussed this very early on. Basically Russian doctrine says that if the gap is over a certain length (I think it was 500m but it might have been 300) then you're suppose to use ships to transport across, not using the bridge layer.

              but the dnepr is like 1km wide meaning no bridgelaying vehicle can cross it so if they really wanted to attack they would have to lay down pontoons. i recall earlier in this war someone else tried pontooning at a much more narrow river and it ended up losing them like 50 afvs but what do i know

                No but you can theoretically merge lots and lots of rigs together. The Bongs and Germans have the current record, which is 350 metres.

                But this took 34 to do it. So you could, I guess, triple that amount and get your 1km.

                With islands every few hundred meters in the delta area. There are many places you could cross if you have enough bridging units, which means you could flow a lot of gear very fast once those bridges are up, and it would be tough for the Russians to stop them all. I've been predicting a counteroffensive across the dniepr delta for months.

        It would be interesting to know how damage the Dams bridge is and how damage the normal bridge is
        Because I personally only ever saw russians detonate the Ukrainian side which could mean that the rest of the bridge could be usable aslong as ukies find a way to quickly replace the broken part on their side
        Though Himars strike damage is probably still there so maybe still unusable for heavy equipment

    I've always wondered if there is a way to cover tanks so you don't know they're tanks. Surely them being photographed moving to Odessa is a bad thing to let people know? Or is that the point?

    because they came into the country through Romania and Odesa is on the way?

    • 11 months ago

      Rznow is the 'drop off' point. So they should have been coming from Poland. Not Romania. If they're in Odessa then they're there for a reason, not because they're passing through. By that I mean they might be passing through to Kherson for an attack that way. That's what I mean.

      Again, the entry point for supplies has been from Reznow. That's the delivery place. It is also where Poland is and Poland has the biggest port in the region that can take huge amounts of vehicles. Therefore if they're moving through Odessa then they're moving there for a reason. It might just be to trick Russia into thinking an attack might occur there, it might actually be. Who knows. Still there for a reason. Because Odessa is a different track route from the west of Ukraine.

    Leopards will retake Crimea

    • 11 months ago

      I think that retaking Crimea is a bad idea. Since the island is like a fortress.
      The best scenario for Crimea would be - blow the bridge, blockade it and perform a pinpoint bombing of russian military there until they give up.

        Yeah but as I said, Rzesnow is the place where western shit is dropped off and it is connected by three tracks to Ukraine. With shit arriving by Gdnask and then travelling down. If they're going down to Odessa there is a reason for it. Yeah it has a lot of routes but so do other places further north.

        I dunno.

          Sending via Odesa keeps it closest to NATO borders and thus can benefit from NATO monitoring and is also furthest away from Russian planes and missiles.

            I've just not seen NATO aircraft landing anywhere in Romania. Transport aircraft, that is. Tulcea Delta Dunarii Airport is the nearest to the Ukrainian border in Romania so it's possible but I dunno.

              Sorry I should have been more clear. I believe they're moving it east in the most southern route their rail network allows. So it went from Rzsezow to Odesa.

        Every single military that has tried to take Crimea in the last 500 years has succeeded in doing so. It's one of the most vulnerable pieces of clay on the entire planet Earth. It literally sieges itself.

    Because there are not that many ways to bring them in by rail and showing tanks in the south reinforces russian concerns that the offensive will take place there. You can still ship them to Donbas with relative ease, they are on rail carriages after all.
    Its about creating uncertainty.
