@eye_walking Certainly one way to utilize the younger UKR population w/o sacrificing them

I’ve been watching Ukraine’s drone production curve for two years, and the 2026 numbers just crossed a structural threshold. In February 2022, Ukraine produced 3,000 drones, 99% of them imported from China as complete systems. By 2023 the curve crossed 800,000, then 2.2 million in 2024, more than 4 million in 2025, and the 2026 target now sits at 7 million units with capacity to scale to 10 million. That output is roughly 70 times current US combat drone production (Bloomberg, January 2026), and assembly is now 99% domestic. Monthly FPV output went from 20,000 in summer 2024 to over 200,000 in 2025. The largest producers (Ukraine has no traditional defense primes) build tens of thousands of units per month inside underground bunker factories at SpaceX Starlink scale. My read: the center of European military industrial gravity has shifted 1,200 km east of Berlin since 2022, while EU defense planning still procures as if it has not. That gap is going to become a strategic liability if it is not closed within the next 24 months.

The Congressional Research Service just listed the 42 US aircraft lost or damaged so far during the war with Iran. 4 x F-15E Strike Eagles destroyed 1 x F-35A damaged by Iranian ground fire 1 x A-10 destroyed 7 x KC-135 Stratotankers (2 destroyed, 5 damaged) 1 x E-3 Sentry AWACS damaged 2 x MC-130J destroyed 1 x HH-60W helicopter damaged by small arms fire 24 x MQ-9 Reapers destroyed 1 x MQ-4C Triton destroyed

@Oct7NeverForget Nice

The Ukrainian Armed Forces have rapidly broken through Russian defenses on a key front. Several important settlements have immediately come under Ukrainian control. What the Russians spent months building collapsed in a single day. Assault brigades, supported by drones, artillery, and tanks, struck multiple directions at once. Russian defenses that just yesterday appeared “unbreakable” simply crumbled. Occupying forces are panicking, abandoning positions, equipment, and ammunition. Some units are already refusing to fight and fleeing to the rear. After months of difficult defense, Ukrainian forces rebuilt their strength, regrouped, and waited for the perfect moment. The Russian army is exhausted, its logistics shattered, and morale at rock bottom. What they planned as a “major offensive” has turned into a catastrophe for them. The first cases of mass surrender have already been recorded. Russian soldiers are emerging with their hands raised, abandoning their weapons. Russian command is losing control of the situation.

@Microinteracti1 @Kaos_Vs_Control Its a incredible evolution, and has saved ukraine from advancing orc armies. Just enough western help in artillery, and himars, javelins, f-16's, storm shawdows, etc has given UKR time to develop modern drone forces

The West Has Already Lost the Drone War. It Just Hasn’t Noticed Yet. Here is something that should ruin your Monday. A Ukrainian AI drone engineer has gone on record to explain, calmly and with considerable evidence, that Western military planning is not behind the times. It is not lagging. It is not in need of reform. It is dead. Obsolete. A relic propped up by expensive acronyms and men in uniforms who still think the tank is the apex predator of land warfare. Yaroslav Azhnyuk, founder of AI drone company The Fourth Law, has done the maths. FPV drones now account for somewhere between 70 and 80 percent of frontline casualties in Ukraine. Not artillery. Not missiles. Not the armoured columns that NATO has spent forty years and several fortunes preparing to counter. Small, cheap, autonomous flying machines that cost about as much as a decent restaurant dinner and kill with the precision of a surgeon. But here is where it gets genuinely terrifying. China can produce four billion FPV drones per year. Ukraine, a country that has been at war for three years and is building faster than anyone in the West, manages four million. That is the kind of number that makes you want to lie down on the floor and stare at the ceiling for a while. The West is not losing the AI arms race because it lacks the technology. It is losing because it is still arguing about procurement frameworks while the future arrives, uninvited, at four hundred kilometres per hour with a shaped charge attached.

@SecScottBessent @USTreasury Russian lovers, smdh

.@USTreasury is issuing a temporary 30-day general license to provide the most vulnerable nations with the ability to temporarily access Russian oil currently stranded at sea. This extension will provide additional flexibility, and we will work with these nations to provide specific licenses as needed. This general license will help stabilize the physical crude market and ensure oil reaches the most energy-vulnerable countries. It will also help reroute existing supply to countries most in need by reducing China’s ability to stockpile discounted oil.

@RippleXrpie Except he isnt one

🇺🇸 PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS SENT A MESSAGE TO ALL AMERICANS! "AMERICA IS A CHRISTIAN NATION."

@Freedom250 Cult of dummies

Moments away, thousands of patriots will fill the Mall as we come together for Rededicate 250. The energy is building, and America is ready!

Madyar on the War Putin sends 400,000 people to the front every year. The same plan, three years running. A full mobilization would damage the regime more than any strike on Tuapse. That is why Putin is unlikely to announce one before the fall. Right now, approximately 700,000 Russian troops are deployed at the front. Each month, roughly 35,000 new soldiers arrive. Roughly 35,000 are killed. Ukraine's task is to make those losses higher. In a recent interview with Ukrainska Pravda, Madyar laid out where things stand: "Five months ago, we found Russia's weak spot. For the first time, we matched them in monthly mobilization." "They know our problems, and we know theirs. Information moves quickly. Since December, we have maintained this balance. Our goal is to prevent Russia from gaining a manpower advantage." "In 2026, no one is standing in line to go to war. We select people rather than grabbing everyone indiscriminately. We train fully prepared crews and supply them with ammunition that we now produce ourselves." "We destroy the enemy within a 1,500-meter radius of the front line." Each of Ukraine's 17 corps holds a sector of approximately 100 kilometers. Permanent units hold the line. Attached units reinforce it. Each commander bears full responsibility for his sector. The kill zone now extends 25 kilometers on both sides of the front. Drones operate so densely across that depth that any movement becomes dangerous. This territory belongs to no one. No occupier. No vehicle. Nothing moves safely. Their pickup trucks, tanks, and motorcycles sit and rust. "We burn them whenever we choose." Russian armored vehicles have become increasingly rare near the front. Ukraine has destroyed most of what was available. Because Russia lost access to Starlink, it is developing its own satellite communications system. Early prototypes are large and easy to detect. "Give them a year, and they will cover the entire front with their own communications network. We are already struggling to process the volume of signals and separate noise from actionable data." Putin is inflicting the greatest damage on his own people – extracting their money, suppressing social media, crushing freedom. "Every dictator must know his limits. This regime knows none. And it is destroying itself." According to Madyar, ending the war immediately is impossible. Stopping it may be possible – but only through sustained pressure. Russia demands that Ukraine surrender the Donetsk region. "That will never happen." Without third-party guarantees, no agreement is possible. And even freezing the front would only give Russia several years to rearm before moving again. "First Ukraine. Then NATO countries." Source: translated and adopted from Tymofiy Mylovanov

@TaylorTwellman Hes like fine wine

🤌🏼🤌🏼⭐️⭐️🍿🍿

@wxsarahk Whew, gurl. That was close

Just intercepted an absolute MONSTER at close range north of St. Libory east of Hwy 281. Homes destroyed. Checking on folks now

@Osinttechnical What a joke

President Trump on Iran tonight:

@sliceofinsight @ProfessorPape Most likely

Trump is sending the message he’s been sending for months. The message is all rhetoric and limited action. He is stuck. The window for rhetoric will be drawing to a close as the energy shortfalls hit home here in the USA. He will find an off ramp. Unfortunately it will include Iran continuing enrichment and collecting some type of money for ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz. It will be spun as “to help rebuild their infrastructure” but it will be permanent.

Trump is sending a clear message: The war is NOT over The next shock is coming, Including to the world economy See new post at Escalation Trap

@SociopathChic @ProfessorPape Agreed. He is bluffing

@ProfessorPape A fan of yours but vehemently disagree. Trump has done this multiple times and it typically signals he is desperate to continue negotiating not escalating.

@AmericaPapaBear It depends

After supporting Thomas Massie and being cast out by President Trump… Do you still support Lauren Boebert?

@MikeBales Lol

Whatever you do in life, for the love of God… don’t be this neighbor.

@Tendar Airplanes will be in danger

Ukrainian forces released a spectacular video showing how FP-2 drones fire missiles upon Russian targets. Even moving targets are in the game. This multiplies the rate of devastation a single drone can deliver.

@Glenn_Diesen F u

After today's attack on Moscow, I am convinced that a Russian retaliation against NATO is coming: - Ukraine has the right to strike Russia, but this was also a NATO attack. Russia has now every right to strike NATO. Absolute madness.

What a day 😆 I’ll chose one who reposts this tweet and give Let in burn T-shirt for free from my Jpod.shop Time to celebrate 🍾 🔥

@TheFl0orIsLaVa Got to be makin Putin look visibly weaker

Holy shit Moscow is burning 🔥

@Acyn Go Massie, cant believe im saying it

Massie: You can tell that I'm ahead in the polls and they're desperate. That's why they're sending the Secretary of War to my district tomorrow. That's why the president's losing sleep and tweeting about this. That's why AIPAC has dumped another $3 million into my race this weekend…
