I am getting more optimistic by the hour.

I am actually feeling some sympathy for Russian soldiers stuck in that convoy because unless something happens soon I think a lot of them will be dying a cold miserable and senseless death.

The east of Ukraine is another matter. Putin and anyone allowing this to happen now should be held accountable. I don't care how frightened they are of him and the butchers around him.

 
Hugh Gains is a Putin sympathiser, as evidenced by every post he's made on this thread.
Its certainly clear he doesn’t want the Russian invasion defeated. And it’s Putin who is sending troops to their deaths for his own tyrannical ego but Hugh Gains makes out it it those who are defending the free world who are the baddies.
 
And they an awful lot of trained commanders, generals, war experts, etc, etc whose job it is it to know when to engage troops on the ground…they haven’t, I prefer to trust their judgement and reasoning than yours tbh.

Let's not pretend for one moment that it hasn't been a political decision. Even the politicians aren't disputing that.
 
The stingers it seems are very good for Urban warfare. A bit like the anti tank stuff the West has sent.

They need to have visual on an enemy fighter but apparently very effective for being holed up in a tower block or city building for an ambush and stops enemy aircraft spending too long over cities as it gives time for forces with these Manpads to get setup, track them and get a lock on

Ie if it flies over Ukrainian troops in rural areas they wouldn’t have time to get it out and fire. If a fighter jet is circulating a city looking for targets then they are at risk of being hit

no they dont, they're IR missiles - if they needed a visual then you would'nt be able to use them at night

(you just need to make sure that the IR lock is actually on a bad guy)
