War

i have to wonder, if russia survives this war they started, will this cause them to have stricter controls and supervision, not just in their military, but across their whole society? a nation that lets their military get in this kind of condition can't possibly be keeping up with much else. their electrical grid, sewage systems, water systems, rail lines, harbors, bridges roadways, all have to be in disrepair. their aircraft have to be suffering, military and civilian.
simple things like elevators, escalators, air conditioners, home appliances are more than likely starting to have problems as replacement parts become rarer...both through sanctions and not having the man power to run some industries, because they're all dead in a ditch in Ukraine...
maybe Jackson MS should send water consultants. A humanitarian thing.

The Ukrainians have teams testing the soil just like the allies had people test the beaches in Normandy to see if they could support armor, they probably have a bunch of standardized tests and temps as well as soil maps of the country.
they grew up there, a lot of them probably know, and just check to make sure. i knew when you could go ice skating, and when you could get the snowmobile out...

" – Babe, these are just Khokhols (a Russian derogatory term for Ukrainians – ed.), they are just rubbish, just dust, damn it. Why do you even care about them? F**k, it is our nation that will be wiped off the face of the earth. It is our people who will be killed there, and those not killed will be crawling and begging for mercy. Forget about their nation; it will no longer exist. Wait a bit longer: it will be wiped off the face of the earth and that’s it; there will be no more of this hatred of Khokhols. [‘Khokhol’ is a derogatory word for Ukrainians used by the Russians - ed.]

They are to blame for what they have done, so the sooner they all die, the better.

– And children?

– I don’t give a f*ck about them either. I f**king despise their children, children of these motherf**kers. These bastards are taught to hate Russians in summer camps. A Khokhol child should be f**king strangled immediately. Right away, in the f**king womb. This is what I will do. This is what I am doing. Well, okay, bye.

Okay, kiss-kiss."

Yeah...Almost all the russians are just really great people...Totally misunderstood...Real fucking humanitarians, the entire goddamned nation.

They do, but won't leave something this important to chance and know how many centimeters of frost in what kind of soil can support what kind of vehicle. They have that base covered and some university people are now in the army now doing it I'll bet, Uncle Sam probably has a US army manual written on it somewhere too, you would be surprised at what they cover and there is a database of them online somewhere.

How many? Uncle Sam has 5000 I believe and they are due for replacement, allies have them too.

US to send Ukraine dozens of Bradleys in $2.85B aid package

Depending on which variation of the Bradley we are sending, these things are hella deadly and might be better than the Abrams for the Ukrainians in this war:
1. Fast....40mph out runs an Abrams by 10mph. They had to slow down to let the Abrams catch up in Desert Storm.
2. Deadly Tank killers. Bradleys killed more tanks in Desert storm than Abrams did. They don't have a big canon they have TOW missile launchers which will kill any tank on the battlefield.
3. Amphibious. No need for bridges with a Bradley
4. Range. 200 mile range
5. Carries 6 infantry with their array of modern weaponry.
6. Engine. 500hp turbo charged diesel. Same engine & chassis as HIMARS. (correction: MLRS rocket launcher) Ukraine has some GOD mode mechanics to keep these vehicles in the fight. They don't require a bunch of specialized maintenance like an Abrams.
Ukraine needs 100's of these, they could be the game changer.

Sammy has a lot of them and so do allies, I believe they are near the end of their service life and are being replaced, so maybe they could send enough to make a difference. Lots of other allies are giving various APCs and other wheeled armored vehicles

Sending them to Ukraine gets a better return than the price of scrap metal...
P.S, they have tried 2-3 times to replace the Bradley, nothing has yet..
