by early 2024. Now even Azerbaijan and south Korea are forced to send weapons with US promise to sell them new weapons later to make up their inventory.
It's not surprise. On paper Russian MIC capacity is 3 times of NATO's. Unlike beginning of the war, now all Russian heavy artilleries are guided. Its drone Lancet, I last checked, production of May this year is 7 times of May last year. And Lancet now is not just used to attack important targets, it is widely used to attack tanks and armors. Lancet has become legendary weapon from this war and will sell a lot after the war.
Two other smaller drones, Judgement Day and Vampire, Russian troop use them like they are free. Saw a video that shows, about only 5 or 6 Ukrainians hid in the trench. The first Vampire missed them by hitting their rear end, the second missed too, hitting their front end. Then, the 3rd, the 4th...total 7 vampires were used to finish this group of Ukrainians. This is truly modern warfare. NATO military- industrial complex can't compete with Russia's regardless of military achievement.
2. Ukraine is beginning to use its reserves. That means Russia's counterattack is coming soon. Absorbing punches at first, then fighting back, it's Russia's hundreds years tradition. Watch out, the northern front, Lyman.
