Fending off a drone attack even with chaff in a rotary wing aircraft has to be terrifying.
Operation Vengeance. Sometimes get back has to come first.I am really surprised they tried it even though that would be a big symbolic blow.
Trump began his analysis in Morristown, New Jersey, saying: "I'm not happy with what Putin's doing. He's killing a lot of people and I don't know what the hell happened to Putin.
"I've known him a long time, always gotten along with him, but he's sending rockets into cities and killing people. And I don't like it at all! OK?
"We're in the middle of talking and he's shooting rockets into Kyiv and other cities. I don't like it at all. I'm surprised, very surprised."

Trump says he's 'not happy' with Putin after massive Ukraine strike
President Trump criticized Putin's deadly missile strikes on Ukraine on Sunday, saying that he had "always gotten along with him" but that he condemns the attacks.www.foxnews.com
I have no problem with Ukraine trying to win any way they can. Not a Zelensky fan, because he is the most corrupt leader...but Russia is attacking them as hard as they can(not nuclear) so game is on.......
When it happens during negotiations to end the fighting?I have no problem with Ukraine trying to win any way they can. Not a Zelensky fan, because he is the most corrupt leader...but Russia is attacking them as hard as they can(not nuclear) so game is on.......
So yes....you have to respond to the attack with strength during negotiations, or the other side thinks that they can FORCE you in to certain things because of the pressure they are using. Trump knew who Putin was...he was just trying diplomacy first. I would imagine there will be some pain headed Russia's way soon.When it happens during negotiations to end the fighting?
It seems pretty obvious that neither Putin or Zelenesky want the fighting to end.
Trump has been clear all along, he doesn't care who 'wins', he just wants people to stop dying. He wants the fighting to end.
Maybe he knew this was pointless and he's planning on using this to ultimately pull the US out of this conflict, and out of NATO as well. I'd be fine with that. Let Europe clean up its own mess.
I hear our Apache As are at EOL. Probably still good enough to take on the junk Putin is fielding. I think we are up to the E variant. We should sell the As to Ukraine. Finance it out of the confiscated Rusky banking assets. That Gatling gun could make short work of Ruskies trying to hide in trenches. Russian tanks ...hmm not a chance. If I could I would loan them some A10s also.So yes....you have to respond to the attack with strength during negotiations, or the other side thinks that they can FORCE you in to certain things because of the pressure they are using.

Id go with chemical weapons myself. Russians have a really nice nerve agent. They left a ton of it in Ukraine.Now a question: If advising Ukraine, what weapons should they request/use that will allow them to kill the Russian ground troops in mass a la the road of death in Gulf war I ?
