Tangentially relevant because if they're willing to ship drones to Libya, there's no doubt they are assisting Russia militarily

Wow.

⚡️‼️ The secret of why Kyiv was not taken in three days was finally revealed by Putin! 

He said that when Russian troops were standing near Kyiv, the Western partners asked Russia to cease fire. And it did. But the Ukrainian Armed Forces did not. Russia was deceived, says Putin.

Therefore, Putin continues that Russia, the aggressor, "simply cannot declare a ceasefire right now."

That driver could make a fortune ubbering in Houston.

One dark night outside a small town in Minnesota, a fire started inside the local chemical plant and in a blink of an eye it exploded into massive flames. The alarm went out to all the fire departments for miles around.

When the volunteer fire fighters appeared on the scene, the chemical company president rushed to the fire chief and said, "All our secret formulas are in the vault in the center of the plant. They must be saved. I will give $50,000 to the fire department that brings them out intact."

But the roaring flames held the firefighters off.

Soon more fire departments had to be called in as the situation became desperate. As the firemen arrived, the president shouted out that the offer was now $100,000 to the fire department who could bring out the company's secret files.

From the distance, a lone siren was heard as another fire truck came into sight. It was the nearby Norwegian rural township volunteer fire company composed mainly of Norwegians over the age of 65. To everyone's amazement, that little run-down fire engine roared right past all the newer sleek engines that were parked outside the plant.

Without even slowing down it drove straight into the middle of the inferno. Outside, the other firemen watched as the Norwegian old timers jumped off right in the middle of the fire fought it back on all sides. It was a performance and effort never seen before.

Within a short time, the Norske old timers had extinguished the fire and had saved the secret formulas. The grateful chemical company president announced that for such a superhuman feat he was upping the reward to $200,000, and walked over to personally thank each of the brave fire fighters.

The local TV news reporter rushed in to capture the event on film, asking their chief, "What are you going to do with all that money?"

"Vell," said Ole Larsen, the 70-year-old fire chief, "Da first thing ve gonna do is fix da brakes on dat focking truck!

Some of that could already be in Europe.

The list says committed. It does not say delivered.  But you have to think that uncle Joe is trying to shove everything he can to Ukraine by January.

I said Europe, not Ukraine.

We have some pretty big stockpiles over there including some old shit.

The one that I laughed at were the T-72's. So the Army said fuck these for training, we know we can beat them so lets get them out of inventory.

Nothing I said disagrees with your comment in any way.

My point was that no matter how much we “commit” it makes no damn difference unless it’s actually in the hands of Ukrainian fighters.  So a list of committed assets is not so helpful to my understanding of when they will be getting the needed kit

I agree. Are they trained up in enough numbers to handle the new equipment? This I always a consideration.

Shit, I say give them all the equipment sitting in EU storage. Unload the APS fleet. Can they use it or is it going to sit in Poland?

So lets build a rapid, off road, light weight vehicle perfect for muddy conditions and add so much weight to it that it no longer can be used. And how do you get into that thing?

As for the boat. Ukraine needs to make a UAV that can drop mini torpedoes.

The latest estimates suggest that roughly 2% of all Russian men aged between 20 and 50 may have been either killed or severely wounded in Ukraine since the start of the full-scale war.

We have tons of Nepalese in our military, not to mention our 7-Elevens. I see probably 5 from Nepal in our military to every 1 from India.

Say what you will, we fucking love Nepalese food at our house. A restaurant has to be a better choice than “meat shield.”
