I'd actually be very surprised if there were a biolab in a friendly country that we weren't involved with in some capacity.
Same YouTuber who posted the F-22 deployment from Langley (see 1st page). Still carrying Luneburg reflectors so not the stealthy config but my understanding is these have come off during patrols in Eastern Europe.

Just Russian propaganda to justify possible next moves, completely false IMO.

“this is the largest departure during the last week.”
Some more motivation, understanding is 3 Brigade Combat teams are now in Eastern Europe.
additional sources reporting the Belarus flights
OSINTdefender has been on point, no wonder they are having logistics issues. Lacking speed and maneuver Russia’s supply chain is highly precarious.

Nuclear weapons do not come from Nuclear power plants. They come from dedicated labs with the hardware (centerfuges) to enrich a specific uranium isotope to >90%, and the technology to put it all together. For context, Nuclear fuel rods used in power plants are closer to 10%. Ukraine had nukes and we along with Russia worked together to de-nuclearize Ukraine decades ago.
Organized RPG teams are very difficult to defend against. Usually they are associated with insurgents, this video tells me the learning from western military forces was passed on to Ukrainian forces and they are adopting.
I hope it's not true. We don't need private citizens trying to play diplomat and screwing things up.

Absolutely a stupid move. If that happened and for some reason one of them are hurt and killed, you absolutely have WW3.
Maybe that tweet is just bogus.
I’m curious how all of these boycotts impact Russian public opinion. I’m afraid it could backfire. Russians are generally paranoid about the West because of many decades of anti-Western/anti-imperialist propaganda (as well as, let’s face it, a two major invasions from their west in the 20th century alone), and all of this stuff is arguably giving credence behind the assertion that the West really is out to get them, which could cause them to dig further into their siege mentality and harden resolve.
If this thread gets locked I’m gonna be p!ssed, take it ELSEWHERE please. American still has the politics sub last I checked. thx
I think it’s 99% likely bogus. Congresspeople would be one thing, but Trump??? The dude is a civilian.
“Interestingly, unlike the two F-35As of the U.S. Air Force, which operated without radar reflectors/Radar Cross Section (RCS) enhancers over Poland on Feb. 28, 2022, the British F-35Bs, at least on the mission depicted by the photos released by the Royal Air Force, were mounting their radar reflectors (hence they were not in “full stealth mode”).”
I've deleted almost 2 pages of comments, some of you got post deleted because it was a response tied to the original offending post, take no offense.
It's back open, leave politics out and a also if someone post that crap, leave it alone, don't respond, report it but let it go. We will get to it eventually and your actually wasting time and space responding to nonsense. Thanks

The politics part of it is a no brainer. Shouldn't be part of this discussion.
It's the collateral matters such as oil and gas prices, fertilizer shortages and related potential real life issues emanating out of the conflict that may cause errant confusion; last night with no politics involved a whole slew of observations about energy costs just vaporized ... and some of those were informative and based on well considered observations.
So are the ground rules written such that if a post is not related directly to the conflict/war (guns, tanks, riot gas and dead people), it's a no-no?

Potentially interesting, I suppose.
Did they change it? A battery (think an infantry company) used to only have 3 guns. A battalion would have 9-12 guns.^ US Marine Corps currently operates 3 active Artilery Regiments, each consists of 4-5 operational battalions with 4 firing batteries in each battalion (batterie = 8-12 guns) + HQ battalion, just to add context in bringing the heat.

^ My understanding is they planned for this many years ago and built an internal backbone to support the cutoff.

2019 it seems.
Disconnettere tutto il paese da internet: il test della Russia
Il governo di Mosca svolgerà un test nell'ipotesi in cui si debba separare dalla rete mondiale per rispondere alle minacce degli attacchi cyber
Batterie based on latest I could find with the M777 is 6 guns, just updated my original post. Thank you for keeping me honest.
USMC procured ~500 M777s
These Marines in Syria fired more artillery than any battalion since Vietnam
In five months they fired 35,000 artillery rounds on ISIS targets.
