" Ukrainians are attacking where there are no such fortifications, forcing the Russians into makeshift positions, where (quote), ‘ZSU is on advantage and the Russians cannot retreat’."

When Ukrainians will counter-attack.Do you have any hints when the spring offensive will takes place?As you describe the situation it must be easy to recapture territory.

Looks like i guess about area of ZSU attacks several days ago, just cite" ZSU in difficult position in and around Bakhmut. Of course want to change. But CAN NOT. The best: cut russians on North or on South of Bakhmut. But CAN NOT".

So attacks in places max distance from russian artillery, UAVs, bomds, - shortly where simpliest

And no cuts. No surround.

Of course, if Tom goes out, world tremble. Thanks for the update as usual.

BTW, a cute Viennese girl explain me the “No kangaroos in Austria” T-shirts hanged at every souvenir shop, back in the ‘92... palm-faced it still is “in order”.

Hi Tom, thanks for the report.

"That Hill over Klishchiivka" would be a great achievement.

About air warfare: what do you think about italian delivered Aspide, Spada and Samp-T? I didn't hear much of them in this war.

- Panavia Tornado: I know, someone can dream about. But wouldn't it will be the right choice for the Ukr AF? Decommissioning in numbers in UK, Germany and Italy (and what about spares parts?), very low altitude and Sead missions, IDS, ECR and ADV versions, use of Storm Shadow, Brimstone, Agm-88, Jdam... All of which are already in ukrainian use...

- P.s. Germany announced 4 more Iris-T Slm (total 8), 6 Iris-T SLS launchers and 15 more Gepards. Is finally something going in the right direction?

Thank you for the update. I am hoping we get some more info on what went down with those 4 RU Aircraft going down, but am totally cool with nothing being said if it buggers up the RU. Also, got your War In Ukraine part 2 about the first 6 months of the current fight. Loved it, and I'm looking forward to the next installment if you can ever get some time.

Why would you compare "Hrim-2 ballistic missiles to "OTR-21 Tochka, aka SS-21"? it is much closer to OTR-23 Oka aka SS-23 Spider.
