KA-52 cost 20million, but offers fairly little which could not be had for less using drones or artillery and fighter planes are not much more expensive, but are more capable.

Protecting American jobs…

Not at all. The judges appointed by the opposition party, protect the laws made by the opposition party, when they were in government. This way the government can not just ignore those laws. So most countries have very long term limits for judges to deal with that. Hence a single government can not just stack the courts. Term limits are used, so no single government just happens to be able to appoint a lot more judges then usual. However even with the term limit being death, a court like the US supreme court has judges appointed by five different presidents for example.

Because in Europe you are pretty much always on or near somebodies property.

The Bin Laden group is currently working on building the tallest building in the world in Saudi Arabia right now.

This is key. The narrative: “The right wing takes away your workers rights and blaims migrants on it” actually works to convince other people, since it is in fact true.

The Brazilian Gripens were $86million per plane. Sweden just gave Ukraine a $400million military aid package. They are also an EU member and that allows them to use EU military funds for EU made weapons. So you probably could get 10planes or so going to Ukraine.

Obviously weapons matter as well, but those are not Swedish made, but German and American. No reason the US can not finance some Sidewinders for Ukraine for example.

Gripen is designed to be easy to maintain and use roads as runways, which makes it better for Ukraine then F16. However the production line is not as strong and most users will not send theirs to Ukraine. The only NATO users are Sweden, Czechia and Hungary. Hungary is not going to send any and Czechia has 14 leased ones. So only Sweden might actually be able to spare some.

The ammunition gap is down to 1:2 or 1:2.5 in favour of Russia according to Syrskyi. That is down from 1:5 at the start of this year.

2months ago CovertCabal did a video counting the tanks Russia has left in storage. He came to 700 good conditioned tanks. Obviously Russia still has a lot more in service. However Oryx has Russian tank losses at 3368 tanks and the offical Ukranian estimates are at 8639 so even higher. The truth is probably somewhere between those two numbers.

However whatever it is, it shows that Russia just can not sustain those kinds of losses and they have to be more careful. Good news for Ukraine.

Yeah to spy on the others for Russia. Hungary is blocking every single sanction package on Russia. They do not send aid to Ukraine at all and even block aid shipments through Hungary. They also blocked Swedens NATO membership for ages.

That is not making loud noises, that is being a Russian puppet.

Russia only has $31billion worth of Yuan left in the national wealth fund, which also acts as the reserve of the Central Bank. So needing to sell $7.3billion worth of Yuan to stabalize the Rubel is quite a large burden and with it seeming to be too little, this is a giant nightmare for Russia.

The problem is not if Putin can finance the war, but how much and what he has to cut to do so. That is going to massivly increased the felt burden for the average Russian in the coming months.

The tankies often also get money from Russia. It is pretty easy to spot. If they do not attack the far right, they get money from Moscow.

done thanks

Seriously that is actually a problem. The gold is worth $23.7billion or so. Some of the rest will be in RMB, but I can not tell how much. Russia can always print Rubel and force its industry to take it.

You only need those soldiers, when you want to control, which targets Ukraine can strike. Otherwise it would be possible to train up Ukranians to do it

However given that Ukraine is on record to have blown up Nord Stream, which has obvious value to Germany as well, this is highly unlikely to happen. Taurus could also be used to strike Germany from Ukranian aerospace after all.

Correct, but Germany would be able to send them and give permissions for them being used to strike into Russia.

Never stop an enemy, when they make a mistake.

The Moscow region is a net importer of electricity and both of those power plants are massive. However they also have a lot of power plants. After all the population of Moscow and Moscow Oblast combined is 21million.
