Btw, Ukraine is already operating at least one drone—the ACS-3 Raybird— equipped with a laser target designator. It would extend the effective range of LGBs far beyond the line of sight of a forward observer. Also a much safer option. This war truly should be called the First Drone War.
Btw 1st ever privately donated black hawk is joining T72, RM70 and other stuff also donated by CZ private fundraising initiative
You all guys (including Tupolev16, whos very welcomed) could join us and help with fundraising for another howitzer, ammo, drone or... https://www.weaponstoukraine.com/
I would suggest to donate there cautiously and only after detailed audit by Elon Musk. )))) Otherwise, there's a huge chance that's the lion's share of funds will go to the unrelated (though peaceful) costs: the leasure of Zelensky's wife in Swirzerland (as she did back in January 2025, paying 7.5 k per night in hotel), Yatsenyuk's dolce vita in Santa Barbara or another villa for Zelensky's parents in holy Israel.
P.S. and btw guys, EUR 2.9 mln for the bird of 1990 year of production, isn't it too much?))))) For that money you can get a couple of more modern Hips.))) As I said above, the donators should be careful about misuse.)
P.S.2. I could go futher and troll about reasons of buying old outdated things (trying to help mother Russia indirectly by diverting UA resources to useless junk?) But too lazy for that...
Tom, no offense, but enthusiasts like you never get yachts (at least, expensive ones).
One sunny day we will see the revealed scale of jobbery in UA during the war. Even Saakashvili failed to cope with corruption in Ukraine, while being a governor in Odessa.
Absolutely not, he's joking really good contrary to many ЦІПСО trolls. Actually, the number of the latter dramatically decreased here after Trump froze monthly USD 140 mln installments to UA psy.warfare activities previously given via USAID. At least, now we know the price of these "heroes".
About Ukraine jamming Glonass: would that make any sense for them to directly attack Ruzzian satellites? Do they have such capability? And how would Ruzzia likely react?
"Any faster rates require state funding - which, presently, is not arriving at the necessary speed: Scholz has been, de-facto, elected out as chancellor, and is now more insistent on ‘correct procedures’ than ever before…"
I cannot imagine what goes inside Scholz's head. Why would he try to slow down Germany's industry?
Russian economists Viacheslav Shiryaev estimates that real inflation in Russia in 2024 was about 30-40% and this year it may be 60-80%. People send him prices in shops to his Telegram channel https://t.me/Viacheslav_Shiryaev/
He says, that the National Wealth Fund has been depleted in mid of 2024, so Russia is printing money now. The worsening of economical situation will soon speed up significantly.
Nice to read about the UMPK, finally Ucranian finds a solution!
Same, this was exceedingly interesting. Great work 👍

It's a constant race of improvements and new tricks from the both sides
They can install targeting by image recognition (comparing input from a bomb's camera to a satellite image)
Thanks Don and Tom, as ever.
