RT by @StevensHelga: my guess is that the new german patriot system just showed up in ukraine... this could be the end of the toss bombs in the kherson area...
we know that a iris T was in the area, but now the range is deeper.. so with the new german system in country (the 3rd patriot battery total) this means that the ru air force is running out of options.

RT by @StevensHelga: If Ukraine 🇺🇦 receives more Patriot Systems, they can be able to protect major cities, infrastructure targets, factories, and airfields from Russian Iskander-M and Kinzhal missiles

Ukraine could also close the air space to Russian Fighter Jets and Helicopters over the frontlines

RT by @StevensHelga: 3 SU-34’s in one day is pretty fuckin badass.

But it’s about to get a whole lot worse for the ruSSian airforce.

Meet the AIM 120D AMRAAM.

This spicy air to air missile has a range of 160km when launched from a plane such as an F16.

This means, depending on the radar setup the F16’s come with, ruSSian planes will soon be getting shot out of the sky by planes they never even saw.

Will the ruSSian air force still be willing to fly across the south of Ukraine to bomb the front when it will rapidly become a suicide mission?

Probably not is my guess.

Probably not.

If the patriots don’t get you. The AMRAAM probably will.

18 F16’s about to be delivered to Ukraine?

That sounds like a Merry fuckin Christmas to me.

RT by @StevensHelga: ⚡️It was a difficult year on the battlefield, but the Ukrainians did the impossible - they stood against one of the largest armies in the world - Blinken.

▪️Putin has already lost the war with Ukraine, since he did not achieve his main goal - to wipe Ukraine off the face of the earth and absorb it into Russia;

▪️Our support has not only helped the Ukrainians, 90% of the aid was spent here in the US strengthening our defense industry, but American aid is critical to Ukraine.

They have no armor or protection.
Their artillery has ammunition but it is obsolete and useless.
In 10 minutes 95% of them will be dead.

Who does not advance will be killed by the officers behind them.
Many never will be identified, just vanished forever.

RT by @StevensHelga: The Ancient Roman aqueduct in modern-day Turkey, dating back thousands of years, is a testament to the incredible engineering and architectural skills of the Roman Empire. These aqueducts were designed to transport fresh water to densely populated areas, and they were a significant improvement over the earlier structures built by civilizations in Egypt and India. The Roman aqueducts were constructed over a period of 500 years, from 312 BC to AD 226, and were funded by both public and private sources. Some of the most famous Roman rulers, such as Augustus, Caligula, and Trajan, commissioned the construction of these aqueducts.

The aqueducts were made up of pipes, tunnels, canals, and bridges, which utilized the natural slope of the land and gravity to channel water from sources like lakes and springs to the cities. Once the water reached the cities, it was used for various purposes, including drinking, irrigation, public fountains, and baths. The capital city of Rome had as many as 11 aqueduct systems, some of which were sourced from as far as 92 km (57 miles) away.

Interestingly, some of these ancient Roman aqueducts are still functional and continue to provide modern-day Rome with water. For example, the Aqua Virgo, an aqueduct built by Agrippa in 19 BC during the reign of Augustus, supplies water to the iconic Trevi Fountain in the heart of Rome. This remarkable feat of engineering demonstrates the enduring legacy of the Roman Empire and its impact on the development of modern infrastructure.

Morning from Ukraine!

The night was calm in Kyiv. But drones attacked Ukraine as usual. 34 out of 35 of them were down. Debris damaged a warehouse of an agricultural business in Mykolaiv Oblast. No casualties.

I read that Twitter (or X, or whatever) suffered from a global outage earlier. It seems that everything works properly now. I had #warcoffee and am ready to live life. I will visit a Christmas exhibition at the railway station in the evening. Let's hope I will have something interesting to show you.

And as we try to establish a new tradition, Happy Birthday to those born today (December 21)🌹

RT by @StevensHelga: Following Colorado, 16 more US states have filed lawsuits to keep Donald Trump out of the election

Lawsuits have been filed in 16 US states to keep Donald Trump out of the Republican Party primaries for the 2024 presidential election.

The lawsuits have been filed in Michigan, Oregon, New Jersey, Wisconsin, Alaska, Arizona, Nevada, New York and other states. In Arizona and Michigan, courts initially dismissed the lawsuits but approved them after appeals.

Trump's opponents are demanding that the former president not be allowed to run, citing a constitutional amendment. This provision prohibits officials from holding public office if they participated in a rebellion (in Trump's case, it is the storming of the Capitol in January 2021).

For the triumph of the human spirit over aggression. For the victory of our unity over any self-serving interests that may want to divide us. And for Ukraine's victory—the victory over the Russian evil that has come to our land and must be expelled.

May the Lord hear all of our heartfelt prayers. Glory to Ukraine!

RT by @StevensHelga: The performance of the few M2 Bradley IFVs Ukraine received from the USA is absolutely astonishing. In some cases a single Bradley wiped out entire Russian units and single-handily blunts entire Russian assaults near Avdiivka, thanks to the superior optics and accurate 25mm cannon.

Morning from the Ukraine!

The night was calm in Kyiv after the drone attack. In total, 18 out of 19 drones were down over Ukraine. No casualties or damages were reported. Meanwhile, Kharkiv was hit by ballistic missiles twice at night.

I had #warcoffee and am ready to live life. It is a sunny day again. And I want to start a tradition by saying Happy Birthday to those who celebrate it today (December 20). Maybe I was inspired by your kind words yesterday.

💡 Starting at $15k, this plywood-bodied drone can carry 32 kg of explosives. Its claimed range of 750-950 km raises eyebrows.

🚀 Production is currently around 50 drones per month, with plans to ramp up to 500 by Q2 2024.
