A bad idea to name a ship Emperor Alexander III.
Someone in our Navy is pathetically uneducated as an American.
Go google for latest British Trident-2 missile test launch.

At least we have money to spend. Even when you have stolen Russian assets for 300 billion dollars. $2000US for every Russian. For me it's a year of food and communal payments.

Russians already do.
Ukrops kill men who want to desert to a bright side and call Volga.

Probably not wrong and the direction ground war is going
Ukraine's Sergyi Flesh: "Mark my words - in six months to a year, both sides will begin to produce enough FPVs to target every single soldier - all will be detected and destroyed day and night in a zone of up to 5-8 km. All infantry will retreat underground, and all surface… pic.twitter.com/4zgA5ZhUyb

Russia is running out of tanks and other armored vehicles. It's estimated that they're down to about 1700 tanks - which is about what Ukraine has. They are only building about 350 new tanks a year.
The war will come to a conclusion by 2025

No matter how the war ends, Russia lost. They fucked themselves in so many ways and it's going to be decades before they even begin to un-fuck themselves.

It depends how you count tanks and APCs. The greater majority of "new" tanks getting to the front line are refurbished and they have lots of t-62 and t-55s that are making up the majority of what is going. I don't think there is much more than 2 dozen actual new tanks being built per month. Pretty much all of them, including t-90ms are rebuilt tanks. The T-90 and T-90a losses are minimal and new t-90m's showing up on the front are on older T-90 hulls for example. I have seen and posted some decent counts of depleting stocks of arty, tanks, apcs and wheeled vehicles and they are all dwindling. I would not be surprised if 2025 is the year they start seeing all those run out. More realistically, they simply have less and less each month and you are already seeing most attacks coming on old BTR's and even Chinese golf carts. There will just be more of that and less tanks and BMPs. The problem the Ukes face is putting up a good defense until then which is a major issue. The Russians need the west to stop supplying the Ukes with essential stuff like arty ammo to make material progress. That is why the spend billions on western facing IO as it's their most important strategic asset.

The thing to watch here is how it plays out. Does Putin , or the next Putin, continue with Russian imperialism? How does this affect Chinese imperialism with XI leading. As far as being a functional society in a normal way, ya, they are pretty fucked by their own choosing but that does not mean they will become impotent and not continue to be a cancer to the world.

Subscribers report powerful cotton in Syzran. The local oil refinery is on fire. The information is being clarified.

The attack occurred at 6 a.m. local time. The first drone attacked the territory of an oil refinery in Syzran. A fire started there. Currently, the fire area is 500 square meters. Emergency services are on site
At the same time, several other drones attacked the Novokuybyshevsk oil refinery. A fire also started there, which was extinguished after half an hour.

QuoteRussians started talking about the issue of attacked oil refineries more seriously. It is clear that these weak targets are so easy to reach by democratic drones.

what it means is people are on to the threat and arming up. They won't be given a free pass again when they try to take over another region.

QuoteSomething is changing with Russian equipment. In the war Russia has lost 1.88 IFV/APCs for every Tank, a 1:1.88 ratio, this has been remarkably stable, with a low of 1:1.49 and a high of 1:2.22 so far in March it's 1:3.21 much higher than ever before.

Richard Vereker (@verekerrichard1) March 16, 2024The second reason I am suspicious of the Russian tank fleet is the sudden demise of the T-72 Obr 2022s, these newly modernised tanks were on the ascendancy, but have suddenly started to disappear. has Russia sent instructions to the factories, to send all tanks to the front ASAP, and not to upgrade them if that will delay things? I don't know, small data set but maybe. 2/3

Also-
As for the strikes on refineries, I’m surprised why the crests didn’t do this before and why they didn’t simultaneously strike all the refineries that could be reached by drones.
A huge, weakly protected, light, stationary target.
Moreover, the crests know where they are hitting. They hit the rectification columns, after which (unlike barrels and tanks with fuel and lubricants) the plant stops.
Due to the fact that now many of our oil refineries are in the hands of oligarchs, that is, private property, the state is in no hurry to allocate separate air defense systems and electronic warfare systems for their defense against drones because they “scraped”?
It is clear that now they will be concerned about this issue and the refinery will be closed, of course to the detriment of other facilities. While private traders are stretching nets that are not even half measures. It's like tires and painted airplanes and helicopters in parking lots. This is not serious.
Well, today we need to think one step forward. Think about where the crests will attack when we cover the refinery.

A pretty good idea on how many seriously injured Russians.

Yeah, Russians lost, with 20 000 tanks in storage. Go fuel an crank. Didn't I post a first M1 to T-72 tank duel? Nope? Guess who have won? One shot. Again. These people who wanted to wage war on us.
Are you nuts?! It's impossible to defeat Russia with a power of arms. Sanctions? More then Iran. And I still get all I need in store. Aaah hysterical squirrels eggs are 100 rubles a ten! Instead of 90 my ass.
We are an overwhelming nation. Something you can't even imagine. We turn the Earth. The problem is - we fight ourselves. No army except Ukrainians, same Russians as we are, is able to resist us. And Russians save lives. Tune to 149.200 and call Volga. Russian artillery will cover you.
After this civil war ends - Russians should be able to get to British channel in a week or two.
Now the goals are clear. Our sleeping bear declared - as I have said - Odessa and a direct way to Transnistria. Dnepropetrovsk and Khar'kov.

You're so powerful that you can't even take Ukraine, which the United States would have taken in one week. And we would have come from across the world to do it. It's right on your border and you can't even do anything with Ukraine. It shows how pathetic your military is.

As far as the number of tanks you have that are serviceable, you can look it up. You guys are not doing so well.
You're not producing or refurbishing tanks fast enough to replace the losses. I've read reports from the UK that estimate Russia is down to about 1700 tanks that are serviceable and operational right now. And you guys started with $2,700. But you lost about 2,400 tanks. Your refurbishing old piece of shit tanks that are up to 70 years old..
It's not just tanks. It's armor personnel carriers.
I don't think your Air Force is doing so hot either. You're losing a lot of planes.

De furore Normannorum libera nos, Domine is about us. Slav ploughers, Norman warriors and Mongol nomads. Go fight.
