Which is why I saw strategic ambiguity on Taiwan has Run its course. Put enough of a U.S. military presence on the island to make things crystal clear.
Exactly. And blast everything out of the air that even comes close to violating Taiwans airspace. There has to be a line drawn.

FV430/432? First mentions were in January, but about their arrival became knowingly in the mid of February.
Just googled FV430/432. They all have a side hinged backdoor. That IFV in the flic has a M113 style ramp opening.

This is a lot more like what I'd hope to see....
What's that IFV? YPR from the Netherlands armed with Oerlikon 25mm cannon?

Anyway in NL woman were only allowed to vote from ~1922; most democratic countries weren't fully representative democracies until later in the 20th century.
Right! Switzerland granted voting rights to women in 1971!

Interesting, as it seems to show a position completely neutralized by drones and artillery alone.
Highly efficient. If they would be equipped with thermal night-vision drones, that would be an additional step to clean out the orcs.

however, soldiers are also mainly assets on the Battlefield. so what are these soldiers worth? i wouldnt like to spend 1€ if the enemy spends 30 Zimbabwean dollars.
Buying time or territory. That is what soldiers lifes are for. I am pretty sure UKR knows how to spent them wisely.

First Slovakian MiGs are already in Ukraine, and it seems they were flown there instead of being dismantled and towed/ trucked. Another red line crossed and still not WW3.
Also, while it's definitely not my area of expertise, the hardpoints visible at 0:28 looks rather suspicious, not very soviet at all.Very good. When are the polish ones arriving? Should be the next days also?

Found this quite interesting. On Dhzankoi, Crimea

Near Bakhmut. I really like this guy. Trolling the Orcs a little.

ROFL! Yeah I´m pretty sure the orcs on the ground will kinda react if they have the pleasure to meet a DU-APFSDS-T round knocking at their turret. But maybe PooTin means something else...

Some thoughts on the chinese russian summit:

In case you wonder why german government is behaving the way it does. Here might be a hint by FT. Grain of Salt necessary of course:
QuoteAll this suggests two things. Germany’s vulnerability to economic corruption is systemic. And that is a security risk — not just to Europe, but to the western alliance. Germany needs a parliamentary commission of inquiry. It is time for a comprehensive reckoning.

Guys form Bakhmut write about completely other things - Russians in contray after some reducing of intensivity of assaults, in past day sharply increased number of assaults - as if they have thrown all available reserves to breakthrough defense.
The dynamic of number of attacks for March, according to General Staff info
Well the official @GeneralStaffUA account wont post bad news, will they? As usual grains of salt are necessary with official government accounts.

How late did the US still have M48A3s or earlier (90mm gun tanks) for use in Europe?

As for M48, german army had them until ca. 1993. They were (M48A2GA2 = 105mm gun) used in the territorial brigades (Heimatschutzbrigaden).
