    Heh.  Thanks for the reminder.  When this was first posted I remembered we've seen his stuff here, but couldn't remember if he's on the Good or Bad list.  I thought Bad, but then I thought I was confusing him with Trent The Tyreman (Tireman for us Yanks) ;)

    He might have gotten some of his figures mixed up 🙃

    5km is an area for a Mech-Rgt. in 1st Echelon going in 2 Btl "up" in good old soviet style. Very unlikely the other 17 Brigades get funneled though this corridor also and wait behind in a column.

    Good old FM 100-2-1 gives you all the details about the warpac stuff. See page 75, section 5-23.

    I don't get why they didn't cancel the vehicular parade completely.

    The narrative of "Russia, only without tanks" will be so damaging in the long run it will be hard to repair.

    They want to lull the Ukraine to safety, because that very night they will line up with three T-14 Armata shock armies and break through to Lisbon and the Atlantic...

    I think it means we should be getting serious and ramping up production of our own war stocks lest we find ourselves in a similar situation. 

    Reagan had a point back then...

    ‘We win, they lose’
    Ronald Reagan made it his driving mission not to appease and accommodate the USSR (now Russia and/or China), but to defeat it.

    Still today, as valid as back then.

    Reagan’s Berlin Wall strategy was simple and could work today: ‘We win, they lose’ (dallasnews.com)

    So just so we are clear here. A drone attack that hurt no one but Putin's ego during a time of war that may or may not have even been launched by Ukraine, is a horrible terrorist attack . However, Russia killing 20+ Ukrainian civilians near Kherson today is just business as usual according to Russia.

    This is why I'm for sending Ukraine F-16s and ATACMS.

    2nd that!

    Except that if it IS emitting a signal it will also be dead in no time. You've just invented red-force-tracking, except the beneficiary is the enemy, not us.

    Well, it might end up in a constant cat+mouse play of EM countermeasures, however i have no doubt there will be a technological way to apply friend+foe identification in the future.
