UK minister: "What stands in front of us, what could be weeks away, is the first peer-on-peer, industrialised, digitised, top-tier army against top-tier army war that’s been on this continent for generations. Tens of thousands of people could die" https://t.co/hPCJseA47D

UK Minister sees it like I do. Russia will fire at distance and destroy entire grid squares...all those anti-tank missilemen will be micro fragmented in their fighting positions...
Flotilla of Russian amphibious warships has entered the English Channel
Ukraine current battle roster. Russian Airborne ready to jump? Check. Russian Air Assault ready to rope? Check. Russian mechanized forces primed and ready to move? Check. Russian Naval Infantry in route to make a dash to a beach? Check. Long range artillery/missiles ready? Check. Political measures to keep this from escalating? Total failure...Check.
This thing will jump off shortly people.

Stand In Forces didn't work in Ukraine. Neither did deterrence. What does that tell us about our China strategy?

NATO runs so military exercises in Europe in the name of security, stability and deterrence that it'll make your eyes bleed.
But Russia is still threatening Ukraine.
The Stand In Force in the form of Very High Readiness Brigades, exercises beyond description and pushing US Army forces forward did NOT work.
So how well do you think Stand In Forces will work in the Pacific?
The weakness of all this is the politician. Diplomacy. The lack of willingness to backup your own red lines.
Unless politicians get some backbone and are prepared to strike first and often, when we see threats develop then all the forward presence in the world means ABSOLUTELY FUCKING NOTHING!
Change my mind.
Jesus Christ! Well at least we can out cheer our threat competition...
Tell me that shit doesn't look like a cheer squad!We’re doomed. #Military #America #armedforces #sundayvibes pic.twitter.com/00zmgHKvuo

The US Army's 25th ID is getting amphibious....they're coming for our mission set!
Don't be confused gents. The 25th ID is set to become the "Army's Amphibious Division". I predict they'll increase air defense. They'll add anti-ship missiles and long range ground attack missiles. We'll elements of the 2nd ID shift over to this new concept too. Make no mistake. They're coming for our mission set and they'll crowd us out of amphibious shipping. When they get their UH-60 replacement they will have an airplane that is as fast/faster/almost as fast as the MV-22 and they'll maintain a logistics tail to make it all work out the box.#HighDive 🏊

They gone! Russia empties embassy....
Russia began emptying out its embassy in Kyiv, Ukraine. On Jan. 5, 18 people—mostly the children and wives of Russian diplomats—boarded buses and embarked on a 15-hour drive home to Moscow.
