The burden truth of the unsustainability of operations without adequate reply is starting to confront Russian military command along the southern front.
Not to mention increased attacks on Russian command because of electronic signals intelligence warfare targeting command forces consistently during this conflict.
To put it into perspective anytime the military official comes out to play in Russia he is immediately targeted and all leadership is actively tracked.
Russian communications protocols are actually extremely limited and easily exploited. Even russian forces know pretty much anything said in theater is going to be intercepted through electronic signals intelligence warfare. Don't forget the CIA and other intelligence forces are using electronic signals intelligence gathering technologies to gather more information about Russian capabilities. However Western forces have access to incredible technology and I know for that technology has been exported to this operational theater and actively deployed. From 2014 to the current time. We have had active Western intelligence engagements. Arguably on both sides we have had special operations forces from NATO countries as well as Russian spetsnaz actually operating.
That's why Russia got so upset about British SAS troopers sneaking off to assist Ukrainian forces. Let alone former special Forces worldwide showing up for volunteer work in Ukraine. AKA mercenary work AKA attachment with actual Ukrainian armed Forces Network. And then of course you've got the illegal operations however the far majority of those are not allowed by the Ukrainian defense Forces. I've actually gotten quite a bit of feedback that individuals attempting to do so ended up getting charges arrested and locked up.
And if anybody's going to say anything absolutely I would totally rather watch us use the worst elements of society from prison to go fight wars instead of young men who have not lived their lives or experience the blessing that this life has given us.
Personally I think that the jails should be emptied and pressed into service.
That way individuals can start paying their debt to their society as well as losses are not going to hurt military units. However it is highly discouraged to do that because the reliability of such units is highly questionable and rate of having further issues? High!
Personally if you had to be over 40 and experienced with life to join the military and fighting wars I wouldn't be opposed to that. Let us have the old wise Smart ones fight instead of the young brave...
However this is just the beginning and I only see even more retreat action happening as the limitations and supply are going to shrink the front on the southern offensive. If you cannot provide bullets and beans you're going to get a stampede for the retreat and if this is a sign to come we're going to watch a phenomenal shift in territory within a very short time if I am correct.
