I know. I'm just even trying to assume that was the case with his logic which isn't even remotely possible. Even during exhibitions sef, they can't be flown side by side cos you can't really have them all take off from the runway at the exact time and speed.
Yea! How do you even ensure they don't collide. Mind you, it is one operator per drone.
Foreign AffairsRe: I Think Russian Army Has Proven They Are Stronger Than US Army See Why. by olugabbie(m): 8:19am On Sep 24, 2022
Ukraine has a land area of 603500 Square Kilometres. This is biggest country in Europe excluding Russia. Almost all the regions in Ukraine are developed. There are urban areas in every region in Ukraine. In small cities like Mariupol, there are countless number of high rise buildings.

Iraq has a land area 437,367 sq. km half of which is desert. The two developed cities are Baghdad and Mosul. As a matter of fact, the two cities have few urban areas.

The more developed a country is, the more difficult it will be to defeat it's ground troops in a war. To conquer a well developed city, you need to fight for every building. You clean up a building and move to the next one. This is a very difficult task. You need huge amount of ground troops because you will likely loose a lots of soldiers. But surprisingly, the Chenchens did a fantastic job in Mariupol. This is what the Russians are facing in Ukraine. Fighting in the middle East, that is less developed to fighting in Europe is not the same. The US ground troops in Iraq were fond of calling for fighter jet support any time they face stiff resistance in the desert. You can't do this in an urban area, where you have a lots of high rise buildings and your enemy is equipped with thousands of Anti-tank & Anti-aircraft weapon. Your ground troops must up to the task.

Before the war. Most people, especially the Western analysis (even Zelensky himself) believed that Russia will not invade despite the warning from the US. The reason is simple. They knew that the troops amassed at the border by Russia was just to small for any kind of invasion. They were surprised when Russia invaded.

The less than 250k troops even punched above their weight in Ukraine. They did more than expected. People needs to know that there are engineers, doctors, cooks e.t.c that make up 1/3 of the less than 250k troops that Russia deployed to Ukraine.

I believe, when the war is over. We shall hear the real truth from the Western media. They will tell us how good the Russians are. Let us give it time. The truth will come out.

You sound very dumb. If they are flying side by side, they will now be static and be waiting to be detonated one after the other abi? I don't even know how you manage to convince yourself that you are making sense. Only explosive materials stocked in one place can detonate like that cos they are in a particular spot. Objects moving at high speed cannot detonate that way.
Drone operators don't fly drone side by side. It is ineffective.

Russia does not even have a better bomber than the good old b52, lmao the b2 is a supersonic stealth bomber Russia doesn't have anything close to that
The Russian bombers fleet can effectively attack the US. They don't need to enter the US air space. They can carry cruise missile that can cover a distance of more than 2000km. Likewise the submarines.

that's only weapons you guys have to confront USA. Conventionally Russia will size to exist in any confrontation with USA. even with the nuclear warfare us will still beat Russia hands down.
Russia don't need Nuclear weapon to strike the US. Russian Submarines & Bombers carrying tactical missiles, that are equipped with conventional warheads can do that, even without using hypersonic missiles.

Putin was just responding to rhetorics coming out of the West. The Western leaders are saying that they want to drastically degrade Russian military strength (which you claim is nothing), so that it won't be able to carry out this type of offensive in the future. If you think about it very well, it is a threat. Is like saying your mission is to destroy Russian ability to protect itself.

So Putin responded by saying Russian has a lots of options and will use every means in at is disposal to defend itself.

I think the love for the US, has blinded some people. The US is not under any threat. The more than 5000 miles of Ocean separating the US from Europe and Asia is a formidable fortress on its own. Then it's nuclear capabilities and Naval strenght. The US is safe from every other super powers including it's allies. Except for Russia that can attack it from the artic.

The US irresponsible behaviour has resulted in the death of millions around the world, from Europe to Asia to Africa to Latin America. In Iraq alone more than 300k civilians were killed. She has violated UN laws several times. May be when the US turn against Nigeria and we are able witness her atrocities firsthand. Then we will know better.

Source. Please show me the official "list of superpowers" from the "the west".
No, almost no western analyst or political scientists regards russia as a superpower. You just make stuff up.


Of course China can not challenge the US yet, because nobody can. But china is getting stronger year by year. China already has a much bigger military budget than Russia, despite spending less as % of GDP.
Superpower status is not just about military. It's also about economic and cultural influence. Germanies economy alone is more than twice the size of Russias. The EUs economy is over 16x that of russia.

The idea that russia can compete with the US is somewhere between funny and stupid, just shows that you have no clue what you are talking about.
How dumb do you have to be to believe the 'pelosi wouldn't visit taiwan if the russia told them', while the US is literally sanctioning russia

Insulting people on line because they don't buy your idea is really dump. You can't expect everybody to just queue behind you.

and sending billions worth of military equipment to ukraine. grin


Yea, they probably actually can. They just can't hold/occupy it.


No, analysts said russia can't OCCUPY Ukraine. Almost all analysts believed Ukraine would be taken pretty fast. You understand the difference between longterm occupation and taking a country? The difficult part is the occupation, Russia didn't even get to that point.

All russia did in syria is bomb a few hospitals...

how many usa troops died from the invasion compared to Russia.... make una continue agenda
It is not a good idea comparing Iraq with Ukraine. NATO didn't train the Iraqis soldiers and armed them. Do you think Ukraine on it own can defend itself. Remember, that the West started training and arming the Ukrainians in 2014? They stepped up the supply of arm when Russia started amassing troops on it border. So it is unintelligent to compare the two.

Wrong. The only clear superpower after the fall of the Soviet Union is the US. Second in line is China.


UK & France are not imperialistic dictatorships, but they have way more capacities than russia.


Wrong. They used 30k.


Of course he wanted to capture Kyiv. grin


Zelenskyy couldn't even surrender if he wanted to. Ukrainians would never accept it.


This is absolute and verifiably nonsense. He's commited literally all elite troops russia has.


Wrong. Most of those troops were deployed around Izium.


Keep dreaming.
Well, the West still recognise Russia has a Super power and I believe they are not fools. China can not challenge US militarily in a conventional war. But Russia can. If it were the Russians that told Pelosi not to visit Taiwan. She won't dare. If u think otherwise. Well China has nuclear weapon too.

UK & France individual can't invade Ukraine. They don't have the ground troops to do it. Air force alone can not win war.

Western analysts mentioned it several times that 200k can't take Ukraine before the war. Ukraine is not Iraq. With the exception of Iran, Israel & Saudi Arabia, all other countries in the middle can be conquered by any super power within months. Russia military perform brilliantly well in Syria too.

You said Russia committed all its elite troop. Show me the evidence.

Check all the videos coming out of Ukraine. You rarely see Russian soldiers on the battlefield. You only see the Chenchens & once in a while you Russian paratroopers.

Hitler didn't use such number of troops when invading the Soviet Union...
Lol! German used 3million troops to invade Russia.

Well, the US used 160k troops to captured the capital of Iraq alone. Iraqis military was very weak. Their forces were concentrated in the Capital unlike Ukraine. Ukraine has well trained & well equipped troops in almost all the major cities Donbas, Kharkiv, Mariupol, Odesa, e.t.c

So do the maths.

Truth be told, the invasion was poorly planned. I think Russia's Intelligence underestimated Ukraine's will to defend its territories.
Russia had no plan to invade Ukraine. Ukraine was preparing for major offensive in Donbas & Putin needed to show maximum support for the pro-Russians. So Russia started building up troops to force Ukraine to abandon the offensive in Donbas and to negotiate (implement the Minsk agreement). But Ukraine was not ready for any negotiate because of the massive support, she was getting from the West. Ukraine & the West rejected all the Russian proposals. So Russia had no choice than to invade. So as not to appear weak. It was not planned. They just wanting to scare everybody with the show of force.
Foreign AffairsRe: Gov. by olugabbie(m): 5:57pm On Sep 20, 2022
joyandfaith:
Very good analysis. However about 190k troops invaded Ukraine across borders. Donbas is a major issue. Status of Crimea would be addressed diplomatically.
190k troops will not be enough. Russian needs minimum of 500k troops to conquer Ukraine. 150k troops should be enough to take the capital. 250k troops to take on Donbas/Kharkiv, mainly because the main bulk of the Ukraine military was stationed in Donbas before the war. These soldiers were trained by the West. The remaining 100k can be deploy to the South to take Kherson, Odessa e.t.c.

In addition, Russia needs minimum of 150k troops in reserve. So in total 700k troops will do.

But the problem even the US will struggle to raise 700k troop with/without its allies. Let alone Russia.

undecided
Because Russia will not kick start it?
I don't think Putin has any other choice. Russian territory is so big. Manning her territory requires huge troops and military equipments. Putin will never sacrifice the security of the Russian territory for an offensive in Ukraine. The amount of troops and military equipments required to safeguard Russia will never be compromised because of the war in Ukraine. Russian military is built mainly to protect Russian territory and not to project power outside Russia. They are in Syria and elsewhere because they have feel the security of their country can still be guaranteed. So there is limit to the men and military equipments Russia can use in Ukraine.

So I think Russia will withdraw it's troops from Donbas and Zelensky will be forced to give the Lugansk & Donestsk special status and also recognise Crimea as Russian territory.

They're toddlers.
Ukraine exposed them everywhere
Russia was a superpower before the war and will still be a superpower during and after the war. Apart from the US no other super power has the capacity to invade Ukraine the way Russia did. The UK & France won't dare do what Russia is doing now, whether or not they share border with Ukraine. They don't have the capacity. NATO can do it but not individual countries under NATO.

The US used about 160k troops to capture Baghdad. Russia used 30k troops, which entered Ukraine through Belarus. Iraq did not have the robust air force and air defense systems Ukraine had. Don't forget that Ukraine produce and export SU-27 engine & parts. They also produce defense systems and ballistic missiles. Iraq was no where near Ukrainian military strength.

The Russian intelligence team failed Putin. Putin thought the Russian troops will be accepted the same way, they were accepted in Crimea. They were counting on the Pro Russians.

Putin had no intention of capturing Kiev. You can't do that with 30k troops anyway. All he wanted to do is to send troops to Donbas with the hope that his troops will be accepted the way they were accepted in Crimea in 2014 and to use his 30k troops to harass and put pressure on Zelensky to surrender.

The Russians became clueless after the failed attempt to scare Zelensky into surrendering.

Now Putin is stuck. He does not want to be fully committed to the war. He knows that the West is looking for the opportunity to degrade Russian military drastically. So he is trying to avoid committing Russian troops and equipments extensively to the war. This is why he relied so much on volunteers, Chenchens, Wagner, LPR, DPR, Syrians e.t.c.

The Russian troops that attacked Kiev are still in Belarus and the ones that attacked Kharkov have been moved to the border btw Ukraine and Russia. Although, some Russian soldiers are still involved. About 30% of the total invasion force are been used in the war currently.

Russia will continue the war as long as the Russian troops are willing to fight. But the moment they get exhausted. Putin will have no choice than to negotiate. Because it will be difficult to get volunteers for this kind of war. But Ukraine should forget about Crimea. Crimea is gone forever. They can't take it back.

In 2003, the American-led coalition attacks Iraq, a country 10,000 kilometers away from the United States.

The coalition has assembled an army of around 310,000 soldiers, of which only 160,000 are taking part in the invasion. Iraq has nearly 540,000 active soldiers, 70,000 soldiers of the Revolutionary Guard, plus tens of thousands of soldiers from other military and paramilitary units.

Within a month, the coalition wins the war, smashes Iraqi troops and conquers Baghdad. Saddam Hussein's government is dissolved and the country is under coalition occupation. A pro-Western government is established in Iraq.

The coalition loses 196 soldiers, plus 551 soldiers are injured.




In 2022, Russia attacks Ukraine, a country that is practically surrounded by Russia and Belarus. Kyiv is located 200 kilometers from the Russian border.

Russia has an army of over one million active soldiers, of which about 200,000 have been sent to fight Ukraine. Ukraine alone has about 250,000 soldiers, of which only 90,000 are involved in the defense of the country in the initial stages of the invasion.

After 6 months of fighting, Russia still has not managed to defeat Ukraine. Most of the country is still independent, and the Ukrainian government enjoys great support both among the Ukrainian population and internationally.

An estimated 60,000 - 80,000 Russian soldiers have been killed or wounded so far. World power indeed




This is the comparison between the world's first and "second" armies
Comparing the two events (wars) is ridiculous.

Was the US sanctioned by the int'l community?

Did NATO or other countries sent weapon to Iraq before & during the war?

Russia performed brilliantly well in Syria, which is thousands away from Russia. Saudi Arabia, Iran & Israel are the only countries in middle East that are well equipped militarily.

Ukraine has a very strong military. She has alots of mobile air defense systems. In fact, she was the fifth biggest arms exporter in Europe before the war.

There is no defense system in operation that can not be destroyed.

However, the Russian troops in Ukraine are being protected by the S-300, BUK, osa-AKM, Tor & Pantshir defense systems. The closest locations to Ukraine where the S-400 systems are stationed are Belarus, Crimea & Belgorod.

If the Ukraine claim is true. It means the S-400 was destroyed in any of the locations mentioned above.

Chechnya, Dagestan are part of Russia federation. The regions are highly marginalized. That was the reason for Russia- Chechnya war and currently agitation in Dagestan. Historically, Russia used slave army to fight and acquire more territories. It was just like how usman dan fodio used conquered hausas to fight other tribes in the north and some parts of yoruba land. Slave army.
Presently, Russia is recruiting soldiers from all regions to serve as volunteers. Most soldiers are not willing to fight because it is useless war.
Russia is also using volunteers from Arabs. Russian soldiers are also being withdrawn from Libya, Syria and Armenia to fight in Ukraine.
Note that volunteers don't like war of attrition. Ukraine is waging war of attrition and USA is ready to finance it as long as Ukraine is willing to fight.
USA withdrew from Afghanistan to prepare for Russia war in Ukraine.
Chechnya Republic, Dagestan Republic, Sakha Republic e.t.c are part of Russian Federation. They are autonomous regions. They have their on leaders, police and military.

They are forbidden from joining the Russian military. This is the reason why the official Russian casualties are very low. The official casualties data is based on the Russian military alone. Likewise Ukraine, the Azov battalion, the foreign fighters legion & the volunteers casualties are excluded from the official casualties figure.

Russian soldiers are limitedly used. The Spetsnaz & Russian paratroopers are frequently used for specific tasks when needed and they get withdrawn after the task.

The Wagner group, the Chechens, the Daegastanis, the LPR Militia, the DPR Militia, the Syrians/Arabs and other volunteer fighters are the one doing the main fighting in Ukraine. They are not part of the Russian regular forces. These groups are being supported by Russian special forces-Spetsnaz, Russian air power, naval power, air defense forces, FSB and few Russian soldiers incharge of Artilleries, Rocket Launchers, Drone, Surveillance e.t.c

Immediately the Russians realised that Ukraine was not going to surrender and that they are in for a long war. They withdrew most their forces-about 70%.

TheGenius001:
This is not the right section but I believe most Nairalanders are more active on this section.


I have raised a thread like this before asking this same question. What could it mean? Is it something normal?

The latest experience:

There was an issue bothering me about someone who got missing. It weighed me down and so I decided to try my so called gift of seeing strange things to get to know where the missing person is.

Boom, I saw some symbolis (very strange) immediately dozed off (in split seconds, I ha e seen a while lot of things). I didn't really understood the symbol meaning, so I made some research on Google. Instantly I was shocked because already I can tell where the person was. Lo and behold it was true.

Pls what the heck is this thing?

The process is very simple for me. What I do is very simple. I could just focus on a person so much that everything I have in mind at that period is that person. If I proceed to doze off ( I do this intentionally to know certain about the person) I could see a whole lot about that person. The challenges the person is facing. The current situation of the person. The hope of the person and a whole lots of other things. Some of it will be understandable while others are totally not understandable. So I make further research. At the end of the day, I get shocked wonderinyhow on earth such things got to my mind.


Note that I am not really that religious kind of person. More reason I didn't post this topic in that section. Religious people tend to have a one track mind.


Please who experiences this kind of issue? Is it a normal thing for everyone or am I something that I don't know? This is really bothering me.



MODIFIED: I have been having these experiences even as a teenager.
It is a gift, just continue to develop it and learn more about it.

Don't no use the special gift negatively. Use it to help people.

Good luck!

how can russia be buying drone from iran when turkey is there, china is there. can iran make proper drone.. or why are they not listed among countries with supper drones
Arms embargo was placed on Iran by the US. So for many years, the country couldn't buy weapon for it military. So they invested heavily in ballistic missile systems and drone.

Now they have very capable ballistic missiles and different type of drones.

In addition, Iran captured an advance US drone on 4th of December 2011, using it advanced electronic warfare system. The US drone-RQ-170 Sentinel was captured and the Iranians claimed to had reverse the engineered of the drone.

Russia on the other hand started investing in drone recently. So they don't have huge stockpile of drone and they have been unable to produce new ones due to the sanctions.
