Shows when to leave. The Russians learning the hard way just like in Afghanistan for 10 years until realizing they lost. Ukraine is just worse for them. They won't know they lost.

The empire says "help ukraine", so Israel has to help ukraine. So they are not lucky at all. You will be sending more and more stuff soon.

Am going to elaborate slightly from @jhungary post 15638.
The moment your RWR rang in your ears that there is a radar lock on you, your first response, from training not instincts, is going to be getting out of that lock. The training is that any lock MUST, not should, be considered a real threat and that the threat is IMMEDIATE, meaning either missile launch is imminent or the missile is already underway to you. Time to assess the validity of that threat comes later AFTER you have successfully break lock, assuming you can do that in the first place.
If there is a radar lock, the response is chaff and maneuvers. The combination is designed to force the radar to continually recompute what it 'sees'. If you stay on steady course, you are not forcing the radar to do that, hence, making it easier to kill you. Can you afford the time to see if the threat is genuine or spoof? No air force will ever train its pilots to think that way. Of course, Russia can make itself an exception to that rule.
The relevance is this...
A single B-2 crippled an airfield with six bombs. The Raider have upped that ante with merely its debut, and your China knows it.

I would say the "I should wait to see if this threat was real or fake" is the reason why Russia lost so many aircraft, both fix wing and chopper to the Ukrainian.....Am going to elaborate slightly from @jhungary post 15638.

Putin, Peskow, Lavrov, and other hooligans are exposed as thieves. Rediculous, demanding other people to surrender territory before peace talks.

Russia demands annexations recognised before talks - BBC News
The Kremlin says the West's refusal to recognise its seizure of Ukrainian land makes talks harder.

Engel Air Base is around 300 miles away.......
This is not something even ATACAMS can hit, you are looking at either short range ballistic missile or Special Force direct action

Russian bombers damaged in explosion at Engels-2 airbase
An explosion lit up the night sky over Engels-2 airbase, near the Russian city of Saratov, early on Monday and damaged two Tu-95 bombers which have been used to attack Ukraine's power grid.
>> Reports are that it was a Ukrainian Drone Strike !!!! Maybe a 1 way drone strike - the trade off would be worth it.

With Russia refusing to supply Pakistan with the same discounted oil that it gives India, I hope Pakistan wakes up and smells the Chai.
Russia was never, is not, nor will ever be Pakistan's friend.
It's time Pakistan takes advantage of this conflict to test its weapons systems, and start supplying ammo that it knows that Ukraine needs and Pakistan can provide an abundance of.

If Ukrainians can make thousands of kamikaze drones with 75kg warhead it means big troubles for Russia as Ukraine doesn't need wests permission to use those drones on Russian infra and west can simply look other way.
