Ukraine needs to gain control over its air space before trying a counter offensive again. Otherwise it's too expensive in lives and materiel.
the problem is Ukriane is lacking aircraft and those F16's will they ever arrive! far too late and not enough of them... the West is been very slow to decide and slower to deliver weapons. the USA failures are appalling and we must wonder if the USA will stop supporting Ukriane soon, thus no more weapons. The US is falling apart a coup as take place now and an unelected person controls the government today. a person who is fully aligned with Putin. the GOP is the Putin Party today... if trump loses the election a new insurrection will occur, 2025 will the US become a failed State? A civil war could break out in the US. ALSo Americans give Russia a green light to attack Ukraine by launching from within Russian land and telling Ukriane they cannot attack these launch points. The US has NEVER had a goal of Ukraine WINNING this war!!! The US only wants Ukraine to wear Russian forces down, but by GOD do not win the war... Putin's ego will be offended and this is far more important to Americans.
As Russia are finding in colossal losses.
When the F16s arrive they will have superior air power over the Russians.

Customers left are not able to pay, Russia has no access to the us dollar, nobody is using ruble even China forced Russia to use yuan. Pitiful results on the battlefield are a marketing disaster for Russia a country where exporting arms was after energy the ONLY other market Results.. India ditch the Mig-29 for their navy tooks Rafale, Brazil ditch SU-35 took Grippen, Indonesia ditch SU-35 took Rafale and f-15ex...SU-35 was last in all competitive tenders, poor engine, extremely costly maintenance, poor electronics, poor cockpit integration. India went away from the SU-57 leaving Russia without customers, unable to finance and to build the plane. 2 or 3 of them were making circle in Syria...New tank Armata T-14 is a disaster, nothing works, same for the Tigr infantry vehicles that were blown away by Javelin. India the only big customer cancelled many orders including choppers, planes. Without exports manufacturing arms is an economical suicide.

Spot on. Really good commentary Illia!
This man is spot on
The exhaustion of stockpiles of soviet era weapons may be closer than expected. With open storage of 1950's and 1960's vintage hardware, the best running units went into service in late 2022 and early 2023. The restoration of rusty hulks may require more man-hours and be less reliable than new production. The problem with new production is not chassis or tracks, but the sophisticated electronics required for modern warfare. Russia is adapt at creating prototypes in small samples, it is more challenged in producing high-volume production line vehicles with consistent quality care. To complicate the scenario even more, tank and artillery operators with extensive training and combat experience are more difficult to find. What good is a functioning tank with operators that were service industry employees or farmers in their past life? Lastly, combat vehicles run on fuel - diesel, gasoline, or kerosine. As refinery capacity is undermined by drone attacks, the fuel needed to engage the Ukrainians may not be available in sufficient quantity for a sustained offensive.

Speaking as a U.S. Citizen, I think the general answer is that people may disagree and they have to work out compromises. It ended up working out, but some need more convincing then others, and it ended up taking a really long time. Look at our budgets each year. They don't pass long term bills but do emergency last minute extensions that push the crisis off by a few months. There are many reasons for things like this, but the consensus would be something like: It's an election year. That means that depending on how things go, different bills might have better chances depending on who has control. Thus, in an election year, typically, big bills don't really get passed much.
Typical, kick the can down the road and let the next guy deal with it. They seem to have little conviction about important things. It seems to always be about the next election, no long term thinking and strategy unless they feel they have political cover. Just doesn't seem to work, like when Jesse Helms & Ted Kennedy (who were mortal enemies) but voted what they thought were the values of their constituency. They believed the votes would take care of themselves if they did their jobs. Neither one of them cared if the senate voted 99-1 against them.

The Americans complain that this is costing them money. They are wrong. This war meant many billions and even trillions would be invested by NATO countries and others in the American Arms Industry. It is their long delay that will cost them money. Because now the other NATO countries will rather invest in their own arms industry than in the US.
yeah, a lot of people don't really understand benefits that aren't direct and clear cut
They still have thousands of "obsolete" tanks and BMPs to waste and are producing 115 new tanks a month. 12 times 115 = 1338 new tanks that will need to be destroyed over the next year. This could slow their attrition rate so that they can continue to wage war for 2-3 years. The only thing that would change this is if the USA sends 1,000 Bradleys, which we could easily do as they are set to be retired anyway.
Things are going to be very interesting in a couple of month.

Thats why he’s bought factory robiots and buying weapon components from china & has built more factories and churning out more artillery shells, more missiles , built more su-34 jets and Fighting Vehicles.
They have been loe on weapons for 2 years now and captured orochyne
As much as I wish this is true... we have heard for the last 2 years that they will run out of weapons and ammunition. I believe it when I see it.

What about his fighter production now outpacing loses , his tank production ramp up, his manpower superiority, his double digit increase in defense spending, his import of Chinese, North Korean and Iranian weapons and all those countries helping Putin avoid sanctions??
The Russian military jets and tanks have proven to be so horrible that nations that used to buy Russian arms have opted to buy American or European arms, and even canceled orders. China doesn’t export much arms to Russia. They aren’t to found of the invasion since giving it an okay would mean that they are saying “USA… Taiwan is there for you to take”. And China may sell some Chinese stuff to Russia if they get payed in ¥. But not the western stuff Russia needs and Russians want. North Korea and Iran are sanctioned themselves. They can’t help Russia avoid sanctions.

If anything this conflict showed me, the best weapons are: the ones that you can mass produce and afford to lose. The good thing about the World War 2, T-34 (Russia) and Sherman (US) was: none cares, how many would be lost in battle. As opposed to a Tiger (Germany). All of these high sophisticated weapons can only be deployed in battle, because the conflict is being fought in Ukrainian soil, not in Russia and NATO countries. Once the infrastructure that produces the weapon, is destroyed so it's the weapon production and some requires several factories, to produce different components. What I mean is: weapons have become too complicated and expensive. For example: - How many T-34s could you build, for the price of one T-90 ? - How many Shermans could you build, for the price of one M-1 Abrahams ? - How many IL-2 Sturmoviks could you build for the price of one Sukhoi SU-34? - How many P-51 Mustangs could you build, for the price of one F-16 ? Now even more ridiculous: how much bullets, each soldier wastes, with their automatic rifles, when compared to the bolt action rifles, used in WW2 ? It's no wonder, we never see waves of Tanks or swarms of planes, like in WW2. It's too expensive to build an army these days. There's simple, not enough weapons for everyone and I guess, that's a good thing. Hopefully wars will become too expensive to be fought in the future and people will resort to negotiations, before letting the guns talk. If anything Ukrainie conflict proves, that. They are fighting the biggest country in the world and they are bejng supplied by NATO. All I can see is: not enough weapons, for both sides. There's alway a cheaper solution: nuclear weapons. "I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones." - Albert Einstein

Dangerous talk. It lulls people into thinking that we might not need to start manufacturing and stockpiling ammunition and other military equipment. We must get into mindset that russia has stockpiles for decades and start manufacturing to counter that.

If you look at the quality of the gear they throw at the ukrainians, there is a significant degradation an the front. But yes, the amount of troops and vehicles seems endless. But when the depots are empty, what will they throw with, screws? They try golfcarts and quads. What else should they ride afterwards? Elephants? But it's a well kept secret, how full the depots really art. I guess they don't know themselves.
Russia is now using 1950's surplus junk......and will run out of that in a couple of years.

The key thing both of them said. It shouldn’t be just be about America providing aid. All of Europe really needs to step up their aid and their own defense procurement. The old ways of Europe cutting its defense spending needs to be reversed and actions need to be taken to make up die Europe’s decades long lack of spending. The message needs to be sent to not only Russia but the counties that are aiding Putin that Europe not just America will not tolerate these actions by anyone in the future.

Russia has lost 7,000+ tanks, 14,000 armoured vehicles and approaching 12,000 artillery pieces. It's been losing artillery at an average of 1,000 per month consistently for the past few months. In recent weeks we've been seeing fewer tanks. We're also seeing Russia use far more older towed artillery units (versus self propelled). The signs that they are digging deep into their stockpile and there are good arguments for thinking that exhaustion will occur in the coming months, perhaps late summer.

I hate to say that, but this has been said for years now, so I doubt it.
What was said is the missile stockpiles specificly. And those are already low, they only do massive missile strikes once in a while when they produced enough new one, and those are supported with bunch of iranian drones and old soviet bombs with cheap wings on them. You know it's not work as you imagine it, that one day they out of ammo and the war ends. You can't even tell when the Ukrainians say they out of ammo if it's realy mean empty stockpiles, or they just don't want to use a massive stockpile prepared for a counterattack. In this war, Russia bleeds out slowly and painfully.

@@amurry5042 P.S. Attrition applies to both sides
@@StArShIpEnTeRpRiSe 1) They did say missiles specifically, back in late 2022 they said they were nearly out yet that has been far from the case, every week if not month we hear another wave of missiles and drones going all across Ukraine, from Kyiv to Odessa to Lviv. 2) Fabs since being upgraded to be guided with "cheap wings" have been the second most war changing after the use of Ukrainian FPV drones from the beginning in my opinion and it would be hard to find anything else which has had an impact on the front. In the past half-year, since said upgrade, they are used significantly more and the rate which ground is being taken as well has risen relative to previous months and years. Fabs cost very little to make, relatively accurate, not worth using Air-defense on and can be used upward to dozens of times a day in a single area, let alone across the frontline. 3) I can agree Russia is bleeding and slowly at that, keep in mind they also have nearly shifted to a "war time economy" we hear from the news, where production of certain equipment ex/ (Artillery shells) is higher than that of the west.

The most important but belated aspect of the conflict are the sanctions. They are the most cost-effective but require time. Multiple years, with much reduced growth relative the west which makes Russia poorer year over year. After 5 years Russia will be so weak they may not even be able to function. But can Ukraine hold on until 2028? I doubt it.

Experts have been saying Russia is running out of weapons for two years now. Russia still hasn't run out of weapons. Instead, Russia is actually increasing its capacity.

they are running out is correct. they are depleted it would be incorrect. got the difference?
@@Maddog-xc2zvfor more than 2 years they are running out of ammo, yet they still advancing
The Russians may be "advancing", but they are paying a heavy toll. The recent"aid package" from the US can keep Ukraine going for the better part of this year, while the Russians will keep losing people and supplies that will take the rest of the year to fully "replace".
@@dedster3164 But they don't shoot as much as in spring and summer of 2022 and need sh*tty North Korean shells. So yeah they run out of ammo and can't produce to shell as much as at beginning. Same with tanks - at start of war it was all new shiny modernized variants of T-72, now it's old Soviet stuff from storage. Obviously nobody know when they run out of old stuff and it will not be at one moment. And about advancing, last operational success for both sides was Kharkiv and Kherson counteroffensives almost 2 years ago. Yeah, Russian gains some grounds, but it didn't lead anywhere. With those tactical gains this war will continue for years.
@@pavlosegeda8294 ah, of course, avdiivka is not important, same with bahmut, Ukrainian counter offensive is a failure And all of that with "sh*tty North Korean shells" and "old Soviet stuff from storage" against modern and new NATO equipment lol
Pootin's only regular weapon supply is meat for the grinder...
When did they stop using "shovels?"
JUST RUNNING OUT OF LUCK.. rushing out of it
Vova started with tanks and BMP's but they burned.🔥 Next he used Chinese golf carts and they burned too.🔥Now Vova's meat waves are riding battle mopeds. What's next Pogo-Sticks.😂😂😂
Ukrainians can't stop even Russian golf cars😅
@@StPiter111⬅Richard IVAN Saunders. Clearly they have stopped Vova's battle mopeds because it's year 3 of his failed 3 day Ukrainian adventure and he cannot even take the Donbas. HA. I win. You lose. Thanks for playing.
It's incredible how people can agree with these fictions. Russia is advancing whiles Ukraine is losing territories. Tell your viewers the truth for once!
Someone will call you a bot in a minute
On which side are you?😮
@@Peter-or7wlIsn't that irrelevant? Aren't you interested in the truth?
Russia's been advancing now going on three years. The losing of men, friends, supplies and quickly aging population does not bode well. Putin and his cohorts lifespan is catching to them. Dark future there.
In May 2022 Russia was holding 22 % of Ukraine INCLUDING Crimea and DPR/LPR. Today it is 15 %..Are you a fast backward specialist or just IGNORANT.
Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦 ♥️
Wait ist russia gone Outlook of ammo like a year ago? Now
I am afraid it’s Ukraine that is running out of munitions
yes only in your dreams
@@heros0264 Russia supposedly are building up for a Summer offensive Ukraine Thanks Trumpers have only now allowed supplies of much needed ammunition. I doubt it will arrive in time. By the way I am on Ukraines side but I am also a realist
This is just sad. It sounds like a small child asking Santa for a private jet
How MANY times have we been told that the Russians are low on ammunition !!! And yet here they are carrying on as usual with a seemingly endless supply
Russia are only still using North Korea 3 millions shells so they are short.
Only a fool believes the MSM.
@@_alienblood Also korean drones, korean hypersonic missiles, korean artillery shells, korean anti-aircraft, korean glidebombs... Dream on.
@@vic321344 Im pro Ukranian I know about the NK arms russia got I was defending against Russian Bots!
@@_alienblood We dont even know if you are an ukrainian bot
Have the Ukrainians been acess to the Pump Rat? From what I understand it's a sub sonic flying tube that fires 9mm rounds from an array of chambers all the way around targeting heat signatures?
