      Well for most of the war Ukraine was supplied with arms on the condition they only be used to defend.

      UN/US/UK/UKnowwhoelse didn’t want to poke the nuclear armed bear. And I get it. I really do.

      But that can only hold for so long.

      I’m glad Ukraine is bringing the war to the Russian citizens feet, and not just the poor who are paying with their young males in the ground in the war, but to the city dwelling people who actually can start to grumble and make a difference if they don’t feel comfortable.

      I don’t know if it’s a mod or the base game, but I always appreciate the Göring quote on the Hearts of Iron IV loading screens:

      “No enemy bomber can reach the Ruhr. If one reaches the Ruhr, my name is not Hermann Goering. You may call me Hermann Meyer.”

    Good.

    Bring the fight back home to mother Russia.

    For some 25 years the Russian people have been complicit in letting Putin gain ever more power and they weren’t willing to stop him when it would have been infinitely easier to do so. So since they turned a blind eye then, they should be prepared for Putin’s terrible policies to come home and bite them in the ass now.

        Because it was always one person here or one person there, and not an organized collective group looking to remove him from power. These days, he has absolute power, but that was not always the case and yet the Russian people just sat back and watched as he collected more and more and did next to nothing to stop him. So I hope they enjoy life in Russia as the war finally goes to them.

    I still don’t see how you can jam a drone. You can jam the controler, you can jam the GPS signal. But if it looses contact and the GPS starts fluctuating, it should just estimate its position from last know location and distance to target, using air velocity and horizon. Certainly if high school FIRST robotics kids can do an autonomous mode for robots, Ukraine can come up with something.
