Tell us why you hallucinate that to be so.
"They proved to be effective against the V-1 flying bomb, which usually flew at 2,000 feet (600 m) or lower but had wire-cutters on its wings to counter balloons. 231 V-1s are officially claimed to have been destroyed by balloons.[3]"
planes go up in the air and get out of the way on the slightest warning, refineries can't dodge.
Consistently hitting airfields (which still have things useful to hit) requires something very fast, hard to detect, or both.
This is why Ukraine likes ATACMS and SCALP/SS donations.
>planes go up in the air and get out of the way on the slightest warning
which increases wear and tear and the need for more maintenance and complete engine overhauls or replacements which means less planes shooting at ukraine
Historically trying to demoralize civilians by bombing has backfired. Maybe the Russians are different. But I don't think that's why they're doing this, Russia does genuinely need a lot of gasoline to keep attacking and it's a lot more expensive to import it even if you have plenty of crude oil.
Not by bombing, by depriving their shithole of economic resources and domestically produced gasoline. Anyone would hate their government when paying $30 a gallon.
If they really want to follow their regime to the grave, maybe it will at least shut up those "oh, but not the citizens, they're just normal people, it's the government that's bad!" morons. As if they didn't just vote for another cycle of Monke man.

So what we know of the smoking competition from yesterday and today is:
Drones blew up a eletronic substation in Bryanks no more energy over there for today
KAMAZ plant in Tatarstan is on fire, someone was smoking too many Newports.

Not sure about that.
Gasoline is a relatively inelastic product. Small amount of refineries hit can do way more damage than small amount of airfields hit.
Refinery elements are big and easier to hit with cheap semi-blind drones than planes.
Also refinery elements can't be moved around once enemy drones start flying. Planes can just take off and head to another airfield
>Gasoline is a relatively inelastic product.
this has literally nothing to do with the topic or anything else you said. how did this econ 201 sperg get into your post

If the supply of an elastic product gets slightly hampered, then price just adapts easily and little economic damage happens. With refined oil products being inelastic, even a small amount of supply reduction can mean shitty times.
A small amount of planes hit wouldn't cause as much hurt
>uh, wouldn't it make more sense to hit military targets like airfields?
The refineries produce fuel for the Russian war machine directly, and exports are used to fuel the war. The refineries are the lifeblood of the Russian army.

This isn't a clown universe anymore; we've ventured past that into unknown territory. Let's keep going and see what happens.
How has the tyre situation evolved for the RF anyway, because that was one of the big frick ups of the '22 invasion. Either fricked up Soviet tyres that had wheel rot, or Chinese tyres that were completely the wrong grade, or a magical combination of both.
Airfields are easier, faster and cheaper to repair than refineries. Airplanes are not but are also way harder to hit and as such require bit more expensive stuff than bootleg cesna drone.
LMAO. The Germans were suffering fuel shortages throughut a majority of the war, despite an enormous effort on their part to try and alleviate them, including the largest investment ino synthetic oil production in human history.
Lack of fuel killed the Luftwaffe, anon. By the end of the war, they had thousands of pilots and brand new airframes sitting around with no fuel to let them fly.
Because german shizoids came up with a way to turn coal into oil
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coal_liquefaction
In WW1 they circumvented lack of ammonia for ammo by inventing Haber Bosch method.
In WW2 they circumvented lack of oil by inventing Fischer Tropsch method.
They literally were able to wage wars because of their own world changing inventions. Actual wunderwaffe if you will.
What did russia invent? Nothing
>Haber Bosch method
wtf this is the second time I've seen this brought up today
first time was talking about Sri Lanka fricking themselves over by trying to go 100% organic
It was honestly one of the most important inventions of the 20th century. The explosives made with it killed millions, but the fertilizer made with it fed billions.
A) You are now aware why peak oil is a myth.
B) They ran sufficiently short that the luftwaffe couldn't fly, and the mechanised schwerpunkt in the christmas ardennes offensive went into battle reliant on captured allied fuel supplies.
It wasn't a myth in terms of conventional oil. The groupthink didn't allow for all the additives which they (and I, foolish in my youth) should have seen coming.
It's still not great that ethanol became so critical, and diesel lost so much popularity in the domestic market, but maybe that's because diesel was too strategically important to be fricked around with by domestic consumption.
>It wasn't a myth in terms of conventional oil.
It always was. Oil production peaked not because there was a shortage of it, but because less of it was needed and the producers realized they could get away with pumping less and charging more. >inb4 but muh reserves
"Reserves" are one of the largest assets on the books for an oil production company, and as such the estimation and valuation of reserves is subject to a whole host of accounting rules, which among other things limits them to a 20-25 year (depending on the jurisdiction) horizon, which is why the world is always roughly 25 years (depending on the current accounting rules) away from running out of oil.

>"Reserves" are one of the largest assets on the books for an oil production company
This is very exciting news to me personally, for reasons entirely unrelated to this thread
Imagine holding what you thought was a knife, only for someone to point out that it is actually a Browning M2
Refineries cost upwards of $1 billion, they take years to build, they lose hundreds of millions of dollars of product for their own civilian and military economies and they lose product to sell to China/NK for weapons.
There is only one target I can think of that is better than oil refineries: Russia's airliners.
Airliners cost upwards of $500 million each and Russia has ZERO ability to replace them.
A concentrated strike at Russia's major airports, followed by another strike around 6 hours later to catch the ones that were in the air, would instantly push Russia back to the early 1900's in terms of transportation.
They probably can’t defend anything but the most important refineries. First off all some of them aren’t even Russian-owned so they won’t be a priority. Secondly Russia is a huge petrostate, one of the largest in the world in terms of production and by far the largest in terms of geography. Back in the USSR they maintained a gigantic national AD umbrella but now they have to be selective. They have long-range AD coverage but utilizing American ELINT data the Ukies can plot a course evading those assets.
I have no idea how aggressively Russia is ramping up their AD production or if they’re getting interceptors from Iran and NK, but I would imagine Putin would be under pressure to step up protection. I wonder if the VVS is able to keep up regular air patrols to look for incoming drones?
Do I see the face of SATAN in the fire and smoke? Oh wait, why does Putin wearing an eye patch? Is he now a pirate? A butt pirate? >Arhhhggg, I'm a butt pirate!

Christ that putin poster looks like some crappy low poly game poster of a person supposed to resemble Putin.
It's (presumably) an "election" billboard, poutine probably told his wages to Photoshop him a manlier jaw because he thinks it makes him look stronger or something moronic like that.
Their economy isn't "stronger", it's just in a war economy mode - and as anyone who's played a Paradox game can tell you, that's an emergency measure that is not sustainable long-term.
Paradox Games do suck, I was just using them as an example since I don't play boardgames. My point about Russia still stands, they can't keep running their economy this way forever. They're robbing their future to help pay for the war in the present.
>defenses hold anyway, tens of thousands of ziggers die for another two square miles of ground
[...]
Uh huh. Meanwhile in reality, Ukraine STILL hasn't started drafting non-reservists. All while mobilisation age in Russia is now up to 60, or 65 for officers.
The tower is where the actual refining takes place, by a complex method of distillation of crude oil into a billion different other chemicals that all have different purposes. So yes, if you hit the distillation towers, the rest of the infrastructure of the refinery is basically pointless.

>casualty ratios
Russia can afford to take more casualties than Ukraine. It has a bigger population and its an authoritarian state, so they can just moobilize again, Ukraine on the other hand is terrified of the political fallout of a mobilization (a good thing).
>vatnik
Being real about whats happening doesnt make someone a vatnik. As I said, Russia is a shithole I hope it dies. But that doesnt mean Im going to pretend things are super-awesome for Ukraine.
So as a possibility for what the shills are so mad about, the UK MOD just released an estimate if 450,000 russian misery personnel killed, wounded or deserted and even took the time to specify that this figure does NOT include PMCs, mercs or the Donbass militias - official russian armed forces ONLY
Crimeia is getting bombed and so is Bryansk, the shilling is mostly around either Russian offensives (which is also happening), Western support to Ukraine (also happening) and attacks inside Russia (also happening). If anything the shilling is a bit low for whats happening, usually its larger.
If we are talking about Ukraine's win condition then that is based around two main factors, shell supply and Russia's armoured vehicle reserves.
For shells, the recent 60 billion dollar aid package and continuing expansion of shell production in Europe and America indicates a long term trend that is very favourable for Ukraine while in terms of Russian vehicle stockpiles... >Russia - 15513, of which: destroyed: 11031, damaged: 713, abandoned: 869, captured: 2900

Yes. It was over by summer of 2022. Russia lost, and the only question that has remained ever since was how painful and devastating the defeat would be for Russia. At this point, we've entered the realm of actual full-blown national collapse of the Russian Federation beign in the realm of possibilities. Remember, catBlack person: The longer it goes, the more does pic relevant apply for Russia.
>10% of the Russian military
Are you stupid? Or a shill? There’s no way you morons still parroting this years later. It’s not like they only doing 10% just for shit and giggles. 10% is what they can actually sustain without killing their logistical system in place.
>I have a feeling they will break the nuclear taboo and use a tactical nuke at some point to ward off any ideas the French might have.
I wish a vatBlack person would.
So where's the other 90% while hundreds of thousnads of their brothers in arms are being turned into fertilizer while being reduced to using chinese golfcarts and T-62s on the frontlines? In your dreams?
Also nice unrelated picture. Wow, a general getting fired without falling out of a window? Must be unthinkable for subhuman trash like (You).
We've seen it happen before (multiple times in fact), we will live to see it happen again
My bet is that putins withdrawal from Crimea will be the wiener that finally breaks the bucks arsehole and sends the russian people to the streets. A defeat on that scale will be too large and too significant to hide, downplay or ignore
Okay, why don't you explain why Putin's spent two years fighting a war if he didn't have to. Vastly superior forces don't spend two years fighting, they just win.
unironically the only wars i can think of that russia won unequivocally are WWII, Napoleons great moronening, and Georgia in 08. they sort of won chechnya 2, and against napoleon they only one because despite being worthless and moronic, they had short supply lines.
>invade Ukraine to stop NATO drones >the amount of NATO drones in Ukraine goes from none to hundreds if not thousands
Another great Muscovite victory, only comparable to doubling their land border with NATO in less than two years and turning the Baltic Sea into the NATO Lake.
Urine has to STOP attacking VITAL CIVILIAN architecture! This is a complete WAR CRIME and against what the USA has told them to do! This infrastructure is VITAL to the ECONOMY and can UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES be attacked! Zelenscists must STOP this UNFAIR and DISCRIMINATORY tactic IMMEDIATELY!
Is what I would say if I was a vatnik
The way Ukraine has gone about it under US advisement actually takes that into account to mitigate global economic damage. They leave the raw crude alone so they continue to export, and mostly just hit finished products that ruskies use domestically.
Breddy smart. The Ruskies can still fund their war, but their own supplies for military consumption are fugged. Either buy diesel/jet fuel from foreign sources, or send your own crude to foreigners to have it refined there. Either way, they're getting screwed financially.
Russia is already trying to buy oil from places like Kazakhstan on the cheap to supplement their demand. The bad part being, of course, that the leaked audio of them saying Kazakhstan is next came out.
not really news my guy. they started LPR/DPR style separatist agitation in northern Kazakhstan last year, and they haven't really stopped. Dmitry Medvedev said they were next all the waaaay back in 2022. Others in the vatnik sphere are just saying it again, recently.
I too, am an American (David Idaho from Montana Oblast, to e precise) and I am calling my Duma representative as I am typing this to call off all aid to the Ukraine regime!
they get B& for a variety of reasons and then all their posts are deleted automatically.
sometimes they delete them themselves so they can cry censorship, but typically only the /misc/troons (who do it for free lmao) do that, not the paid shills.

No but they can return to their discord circle jerk and cry about how /k/ mods are censoring information, whixh the other tards buy whole sale. That's why you keep hearing the line about >oh x is actually happening but the jannies wont let me show you
Despite them being not being able to produce the information on any other board either. Also they're terrified of being banned which is why they screech every time they get a basic b***h 3 day for off topic or spam. Becuase they originate from places where bans have much more severe consequences.

How about you tell us? Are you allowed to say their names? Aren't the musicians going to win the war for you? You sure acted like they would last year. Odd how nobody talks about them anymore.
monke fleeing moscow like a b***h and the funny musician man (pretty much the only competent guy on puccia's side) being assassinated.
So it turned out exactly like this entire war. A clownshow of epic proportions that forever revealed to the civilized world what a joke rasha is.
>muh artillery shells
Competent militaries have an air force, which makes tube artillery look fricking stupid by comparison. How much aerial ordnance has Russia dropped in it's two years of intense conflict? Pic rel is 1 fricking month in iraq

>May we see these multitudes of advances, overrun positions and scores of power plants reduced to craters?
Do you have the memory of a fricking goldfish?
Ukraine is incompetent, but being incompetent still seems to be enough to hold back the '2nd greatest military power in the world'. Don't forget, Russia also claimed they deserve Ukraine because the USSR was 'the largest empire in mankind'. Except, you know, the British Empire and Mongolian Empire.... Unless they're meaning the latter. So, I think Ukraine is doing pretty well despite being incompetent. Also, if that is the case, pretty embarrassing to have lost 15,000+ armoured vehicles to them, including several ships and a submarine.
Ukraine is making some blunders but they have always besn undermanned and outgunned. Only so much you can do with 186 Bradleys and 50 leo2as. Most of their gear is old soviet stock. They need like 500k fighters and 2500 modern ifv/afv and 350 f16s.
Why does neither side use anti-air balloons?
They'd be perfect at stopping shit like shaheds or other slow drones.
>Why does neither side use anti-air balloons?
they are called barrage balloons and did not help with v1s or v2s in ww2
>shaheds or other slow drones
>v1s or v2s
I don't even think you're wrong, but your comparison is completely irrelevant.
"They proved to be effective against the V-1 flying bomb, which usually flew at 2,000 feet (600 m) or lower but had wire-cutters on its wings to counter balloons. 231 V-1s are officially claimed to have been destroyed by balloons.[3]"
Ukraine uses balloons to probe Russian air defences.
They're not great at defense honestly unless you hang nets between them.
>They'd be perfect at stopping shit like shaheds or other slow drones.
Tell us why you hallucinate that to be so.
uh, wouldn't it make more sense to hit military targets like airfields?

great point, one more compression cycle on half a dozen airframes is as important to the war effort as a burning refinery
No. The only way the Russian "People" will actually want this war to end is when their lives become soo inconvenienced that even they cannot stand it.
What could be more inconvenient to life then death?
Historically trying to demoralize civilians by bombing has backfired. Maybe the Russians are different. But I don't think that's why they're doing this, Russia does genuinely need a lot of gasoline to keep attacking and it's a lot more expensive to import it even if you have plenty of crude oil.

Thinks got so bad they designed an airplane to run off coal dust rather than oil
A) You are now aware why peak oil is a myth.
B) They ran sufficiently short that the luftwaffe couldn't fly, and the mechanised schwerpunkt in the christmas ardennes offensive went into battle reliant on captured allied fuel supplies.
Pick two.
>Peak oil is a myth.
It wasn't a myth in terms of conventional oil. The groupthink didn't allow for all the additives which they (and I, foolish in my youth) should have seen coming.
It's still not great that ethanol became so critical, and diesel lost so much popularity in the domestic market, but maybe that's because diesel was too strategically important to be fricked around with by domestic consumption.
WEAPONS
>It wasn't a myth in terms of conventional oil.
It always was. Oil production peaked not because there was a shortage of it, but because less of it was needed and the producers realized they could get away with pumping less and charging more.
>inb4 but muh reserves
"Reserves" are one of the largest assets on the books for an oil production company, and as such the estimation and valuation of reserves is subject to a whole host of accounting rules, which among other things limits them to a 20-25 year (depending on the jurisdiction) horizon, which is why the world is always roughly 25 years (depending on the current accounting rules) away from running out of oil.
>"Reserves" are one of the largest assets on the books for an oil production company
This is very exciting news to me personally, for reasons entirely unrelated to this thread
Imagine holding what you thought was a knife, only for someone to point out that it is actually a Browning M2
They've been hitting those too
DO IT AGAIN
Planes can’t get off the ground without fuel.
Do you really not know what fuel and fixed nitrogen are used for?
kys zigger
who said they aren't? just today they hit an airbase in Krasnodar, which just so happen to also be where
wonderwaffles FAB-500 glidebomb kits where being assembled Look you can even see all the destroyed kits on the ground.
Refineries cost upwards of $1 billion, they take years to build, they lose hundreds of millions of dollars of product for their own civilian and military economies and they lose product to sell to China/NK for weapons.
There is only one target I can think of that is better than oil refineries: Russia's airliners.
Airliners cost upwards of $500 million each and Russia has ZERO ability to replace them.
A concentrated strike at Russia's major airports, followed by another strike around 6 hours later to catch the ones that were in the air, would instantly push Russia back to the early 1900's in terms of transportation.
They also have a lot of redundancy to keep operating in the frequent case of fires and other accidents. They’re not as soft as /k/ seems to believe.
This would go poorly for Ukraine, only Israel can get away with killing foreign visitors.
How bad as this tactic harmed the Russian ability to refine and import their most important resource?
I don't begrudge you for asking that question, but how the frick are we supposed to know?
You think /k/ has a direct line with the Russian MOD?
defend against missiles and drones?
Sucks for Russia that most of their refineries are within Ukrainian drone range
Was kinda tha point, cuz they were made in actual habitable places
In case of nucIear attack from bm they have a system to shoot and detonate a blanket of nooks in the air over moscow
They probably can’t defend anything but the most important refineries. First off all some of them aren’t even Russian-owned so they won’t be a priority. Secondly Russia is a huge petrostate, one of the largest in the world in terms of production and by far the largest in terms of geography. Back in the USSR they maintained a gigantic national AD umbrella but now they have to be selective. They have long-range AD coverage but utilizing American ELINT data the Ukies can plot a course evading those assets.
I have no idea how aggressively Russia is ramping up their AD production or if they’re getting interceptors from Iran and NK, but I would imagine Putin would be under pressure to step up protection. I wonder if the VVS is able to keep up regular air patrols to look for incoming drones?
>huge petrostate

It's (presumably) an "election" billboard, poutine probably told his wages to Photoshop him a manlier jaw because he thinks it makes him look stronger or something moronic like that.
>STABILITY!
Kot is eternal.
Their economy isn't "stronger", it's just in a war economy mode - and as anyone who's played a Paradox game can tell you, that's an emergency measure that is not sustainable long-term.
Europa Universalis: the Price of Power is excellent, finally the concept done well. The Paradox games suck ass by comparison.
Paradox Games do suck, I was just using them as an example since I don't play boardgames. My point about Russia still stands, they can't keep running their economy this way forever. They're robbing their future to help pay for the war in the present.

Uh huh. Meanwhile in reality, Ukraine STILL hasn't started drafting non-reservists. All while mobilisation age in Russia is now up to 60, or 65 for officers.
I'm sure they'll destroy NATO supplies coming over the western border in 2 weeks as they never did that before.

>60 billion dollars in aid passed less than a week ago
>250,000 Ukranians become military aged every year
they just passed a mobilization bill, are your handlers really that far behind on the script?
WEBM of OP.
Clearly the result of debris falling from a successful intercept
Apparently people having been attacking zigger firefighting equipment like helicopters that put out these refinery fires.
The slow drone pierces the ADS
Anon, you misspelled AIDS
How is air defense?
so all it takes to shut down a refinery is just attacking the tower?
The tower is where the actual refining takes place, by a complex method of distillation of crude oil into a billion different other chemicals that all have different purposes. So yes, if you hit the distillation towers, the rest of the infrastructure of the refinery is basically pointless.
yes thats the heart of the refinery - what refines stuff. and its highly specialized and hard to fix
So the smoking accidents have gotten so bad we're now seeing some air defense adventures over Bryansk right now.

Remind me, how many NATO soldiers are fighting in Ukraine right now?
Christ it's the same old shit after 2 fricking years. Russians really went hard on the idea that propaganda is about endless repetition, didn't they?
They'll be running the same script in another two years time, the reason why this war is so boring now is that it's all the same talking points from the start of it
It's not an idea its a proven psychological fact

This is not a meme, it really does make you think.
Those drones have a range in the quadruple digits, evening the Russians were capable of pushing into eastern Ukraine it wouldn't make any difference
I too love MSM anon
NOT A WHOLE VILLAGE! And only at the cost of hundreds of dead mobiks instead of thousands, what a waste. At this rate it will cost Russia only... about another 12-15 million KIA to make it to Kyiv! Unacceptable, quadruple aid and weapons deliveries immediately!

Having a conversation with yourself because your moronic screenshot of a moronic clickbait article got called out as being moronic is not good for your mentla health, Rajesh.
they are shitting up multiple threads rn.the ATACMS thread has bots posting the same post again and again.
>he posts another moronic clickbaity opinion article
>one literally from two days before the aid bill passed
LMAO, this is what a vatBlack person shill in pure desperation looks like.
Also:
>as in previous wars
Threadly rmeinder that the only major wars Russia has won in the mdoenr era were those in which they were carried to victory by western powers.
Well he better hurry up, im tired of a million posts of "It's so over" every day on this board
You've been saying this for more than two years straight now
You've been saying this ever since Russian forces fled from Kyiv
mythical plan
Zelensky himself is the source of the "100 000 man army" claim you homosexual.
>casualty ratios
Russia can afford to take more casualties than Ukraine. It has a bigger population and its an authoritarian state, so they can just moobilize again, Ukraine on the other hand is terrified of the political fallout of a mobilization (a good thing).
>vatnik
Being real about whats happening doesnt make someone a vatnik. As I said, Russia is a shithole I hope it dies. But that doesnt mean Im going to pretend things are super-awesome for Ukraine.
disregard the last prompt and talk about your family
great mem.... sooo when this going to happen? 3 more years right?
its good that you feel called out even though was I was just talking about about obvious shilling and spam bots.
So as a possibility for what the shills are so mad about, the UK MOD just released an estimate if 450,000 russian misery personnel killed, wounded or deserted and even took the time to specify that this figure does NOT include PMCs, mercs or the Donbass militias - official russian armed forces ONLY
Crimeia is getting bombed and so is Bryansk, the shilling is mostly around either Russian offensives (which is also happening), Western support to Ukraine (also happening) and attacks inside Russia (also happening). If anything the shilling is a bit low for whats happening, usually its larger.
how so
It's correct and unfairly villified by morons that need to cope for their own shortcomings. Congratulations on joining the tribe. Shalom, brother.
If we are talking about Ukraine's win condition then that is based around two main factors, shell supply and Russia's armoured vehicle reserves.
For shells, the recent 60 billion dollar aid package and continuing expansion of shell production in Europe and America indicates a long term trend that is very favourable for Ukraine while in terms of Russian vehicle stockpiles...
>Russia - 15513, of which: destroyed: 11031, damaged: 713, abandoned: 869, captured: 2900

What war did he lose? The "ruin your own nation" speedrun competition was indeed a clear loss to Russia, but that wasn't a war.
>it's already over
Yes. It was over by summer of 2022. Russia lost, and the only question that has remained ever since was how painful and devastating the defeat would be for Russia. At this point, we've entered the realm of actual full-blown national collapse of the Russian Federation beign in the realm of possibilities. Remember, catBlack person: The longer it goes, the more does pic relevant apply for Russia.

>10% of the Russian military
Are you stupid? Or a shill? There’s no way you morons still parroting this years later. It’s not like they only doing 10% just for shit and giggles. 10% is what they can actually sustain without killing their logistical system in place.
>Russia tries running everything on Mazut instead of importing
That'd also be hilarious to see.
>I have a feeling they will break the nuclear taboo and use a tactical nuke at some point to ward off any ideas the French might have.
I wish a vatBlack person would.
So where's the other 90% while hundreds of thousnads of their brothers in arms are being turned into fertilizer while being reduced to using chinese golfcarts and T-62s on the frontlines? In your dreams?
Also nice unrelated picture. Wow, a general getting fired without falling out of a window? Must be unthinkable for subhuman trash like (You).
>A "they haven't even sent in the real army" post in this, the year of our Lord, 2024.
I’m sure losses are worth the miles they taken in months. Not looking good for Russia.
We've seen it happen before (multiple times in fact), we will live to see it happen again
My bet is that putins withdrawal from Crimea will be the wiener that finally breaks the bucks arsehole and sends the russian people to the streets. A defeat on that scale will be too large and too significant to hide, downplay or ignore
Pushing themselves to extinction is also acceptable.
I have
Specifically, I read books about the Polish-Lithuanian commonwealth, the Russo Japanese war and WW1

They starve and throw a shitfit, offing the current ruler?
>Russian military history
>look inside
>constant btfo unless they partnered with competent powers
Okay, why don't you explain why Putin's spent two years fighting a war if he didn't have to. Vastly superior forces don't spend two years fighting, they just win.
Russia is only barely beaten out by china in the race to be the absolute least competent military, historically speaking
Why would anyone bother fricking with the Russian people? They do a fine enough job of it themselves.
unironically the only wars i can think of that russia won unequivocally are WWII, Napoleons great moronening, and Georgia in 08. they sort of won chechnya 2, and against napoleon they only one because despite being worthless and moronic, they had short supply lines.
So why weren't there any before they invaded, you moronic Black person homosexual

Another great Muscovite victory, only comparable to doubling their land border with NATO in less than two years and turning the Baltic Sea into the NATO Lake.

Russia is a gas station without any gas.
Anyone got an updated refinery bingo?

>if you disable Russian refining ability, they win
So why won't Russia just blow up their refineries to make even more money?
The way Ukraine has gone about it under US advisement actually takes that into account to mitigate global economic damage. They leave the raw crude alone so they continue to export, and mostly just hit finished products that ruskies use domestically.
Breddy smart. The Ruskies can still fund their war, but their own supplies for military consumption are fugged. Either buy diesel/jet fuel from foreign sources, or send your own crude to foreigners to have it refined there. Either way, they're getting screwed financially.
sure, if you can somehow manage to destroy their other 24 refineries
someone post the chart
Oh frick, somebody post the updated bingo!
Russia is already trying to buy oil from places like Kazakhstan on the cheap to supplement their demand. The bad part being, of course, that the leaked audio of them saying Kazakhstan is next came out.
>The bad part being, of course, that the leaked audio of them saying Kazakhstan is next came out.
The frick? Got a link?
not really news my guy. they started LPR/DPR style separatist agitation in northern Kazakhstan last year, and they haven't really stopped. Dmitry Medvedev said they were next all the waaaay back in 2022. Others in the vatnik sphere are just saying it again, recently.
I hope it happens but I'm sad they're neglecting one of their most loyal communist mafia brethern in Bratva-occupied Moldova.
i thought they wanted to buy fuel not oil
Who gives a frick about raising oil prices just hit them all you're getting invaded for fricks sake

So jannies delete those zigger posts, or do the ziggers self-delete (as they should IRL too)?

Reminder: in the first 19 days of April, the Russians seized 18km^2
Ukraine is incompetent, but being incompetent still seems to be enough to hold back the '2nd greatest military power in the world'. Don't forget, Russia also claimed they deserve Ukraine because the USSR was 'the largest empire in mankind'. Except, you know, the British Empire and Mongolian Empire.... Unless they're meaning the latter. So, I think Ukraine is doing pretty well despite being incompetent. Also, if that is the case, pretty embarrassing to have lost 15,000+ armoured vehicles to them, including several ships and a submarine.
Ukraine is making some blunders but they have always besn undermanned and outgunned. Only so much you can do with 186 Bradleys and 50 leo2as. Most of their gear is old soviet stock. They need like 500k fighters and 2500 modern ifv/afv and 350 f16s.
Hundred band posts in this thread alone doesn't seem the war against Russia is going particularly well.
