    Ukraine Delivers Critical Blow: Russian Zoopark Radar Destroyed in Precision Strike (msn.com)

    This strike marks another instance of Ukraine’s rocket artillery neutralizing high-value Russian military assets.

    In late August, Shark reconnaissance drones from the 15th Artillery Reconnaissance Brigade guided a strike on a similar Zoopark-M1 radar in Zaporizhzhia, which was destroyed by a GMLRS rocket. Ukrainian forces have continuously disrupted Russia’s military capabilities by eliminating these vital counter-battery systems.

    According to Oryx OSINT data, Russia has lost several such systems during the conflict, including two Zoopark (1L219) units, four Zoopark-1 (1L259) radars, and 14 Zoopark-1M (1L261) radars.

    I agree.

    ...but...I thought we were supposed to be petrified of very scary Russia.

    Isn't THAT why were supposed to be so invested in what transpires east of NATO?

    As always, Biden-Harris will only give Ukraine just enough rope to hang themselves.

    Not all of Russia's weapons are useless. What makes Russia dangerous is that they are ready to use all of their (conventional) weapons when an opportunity comes up to steal a neighbor's land and natural resources. There is no need to be petrified of Russia. What is required is determination and fortitude. Things that you appear to be lacking.

    Russia came up with a plan to deal with the lack of children because women are unwilling to bring them into a violent and murderous barbarian society. Just fine the crap out of influencers who are promoting a child-free lifestyle.

    Russia is considering a law to fine people thousands of dollars for promoting a 'child-free' lifestyle

    Ukraine is holding their own against the #2 military in the world, as has been for over 2.5 years. Very impressive.

    It has been the traitorous/juvenile republicans, in withholding aid to Ukraine, that have been keeping Russia in this fight. Not very impressive.
