Russia-Ukraine War

[SB Shock]

The Russian war on Ukraine thread on Phog.net is a great way to keep up on things. They have two posters who give frequent updates.

The best place is on twitter with the OSIT people and some Ukraine reporters who are posting real video. Every day can be sum up as this:

1. Russia operation is stalled
2. Ukraine is conducting behind the line operation to disrupt C&C and supply operations - which keep Russian operation stalled
3. Russia has reverted to just launching long range missiles and destroying towns in hopes they can break Ukraine morale.
4. Ukraine is sniping off Russian generals/Colonels each week which helps keep the Russian operations stalled.

Just this morning they had a landing ship sunk in port that was trying resupply. If NATO estimate of casualties is true, Russia is either going to have to go full mobilization is going to have to do something "big" to change the narrative. Question is which will happen first:

1. Russia remove Putin?
2. Or will Russia use chemical weapons or tactical nukes?

Something from phog net...Lukashenko, the president of Belarus, not invading the Ukraine like he was supposed to do and Putin is very angry at him.

Hope this story is more than a phog of war headline...

Solar sails are supposed to be extremely fast in the vacuum of outer space, maybe they could make a "Solar Sail Ponderous-Sonic Missile".

That way no propellant would need to be used.

Yeah, we could ship the greenies off into deep space faster than any human has gone before with ion engines.

Honestly, if you’re serious about carbon footprints, blowing up hundreds of thousands of people has to be a net positive.

Only if blowing up Trump voters. The others want to pay carbon offset taxes, so they are net zero.

Hypersonic research won't be approved unless the proposed propellant is 100% electric.

We need to develop lasers on sattelites. Just vaporize targets from heaven.

I would think at that speed a windmill on top would produce plenty of turbine action to produce sufficient thrust.

Hopefully not...

Russia apparently used a hypersonic missile with a conventional warhead Friday or Saturday....in part probably a message for NATO.

But it probably wasn't the message that Putin hoped would be delivered.
