US press: NATO tanks in Ukraine will not be the "silver bullet" that will allow Kyiv to win the war

Deliveries of American and German tanks Ukraine will not be allowed to turn the tide of the armed conflict. This is written by the American newspaper The New York Times.

As the author of the publication notes, the American command is trying to transform the armed forces of Ukraine (AFU) in order to increase Ukraine's chances of breaking through Russian defense in a number of key areas. Now the US military is going to organize training for Ukrainian tank crews and other specialists.



NATO tanks will not be the silver bullet that will allow Kyiv to win the war

- emphasizes the author of the American edition.

Thus, the combined arms training of recruits of the US Army itself takes many months, if not years. But for some reason, the American command decided that Ukrainian soldiers would complete this training in a month at the most. The feasibility of such plans raises serious doubts among experts. After all, it is very difficult to train specialists in modern mobile warfare in such a short period of time.

The construction of a multi-level defense line by the RF Armed Forces in the areas of combat contact creates additional difficulties for the Ukrainian army. The publication calls them a "military dead end" of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, since the borders will have to be stormed. This, in turn, will require the coordination of the attack of tank and infantry units, with artillery support.

While it is planned that Leopard tanks, which will form the basis of the updated tank fleet of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, will attack together with the American Bradley infantry fighting vehicles. The tanks must break through the defenses, and then the motorized infantry on the BMP will go on the attack. However, this is ideal, while the reality is always different, and it is clear that it will not be the same as it is now being portrayed by Ukrainian leaders and their overseas sponsors.

      Everything they write is correct. Moreover, the task of NATO is not that Ukraine would win, but that Russia would not win. And these are completely different tasks.

          One caveat.
          Article 61 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation states that "a citizen of the Russian Federation cannot be expelled from the Russian Federation or extradited to another state."
          So, according to all concepts, to demand from others what you don’t do yourself ... well, you understand.

      The states "promised" ... they have been waiting for the promised for three years. But Scholz was bent over ... Vaseline, a soldering iron ... people broke.)
      Here yesterday I listened to Kartapolov at Solovyov, so the tank corps should be covered from the air and accompanied by infantry after powerful artillery preparation.
      And the same Americans predict our offensive in a couple of weeks. Again, we are offered to verify the seriousness of the generals' statement about the "red lines". I mean .. where will we bomb these such corps: on the LBS or still near the Polish border.)

      This means that everyone plays according to the notes that he was given. From myself: for a successful offensive, say, on Melitopol, the Armed Forces of Ukraine will need: 1) the tanks themselves, preferably 2-3 brigades; 2) pontoon systems; 3) air support, ideally domination; 4) powerful artillery support that suppresses our artillery; 5) OTP should suppress our command centers, both on the front line and, say, in Moscow, destroy logistics, strike at industrial centers; 6) Air defense of the Armed Forces of Ukraine should work out by 80%; 7) reconnaissance must thoroughly reveal our entire defense system, conduct all our movements; 7) 3-5-fold superiority in manpower; 9) The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation must be passive, make mistakes, and the actions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, on the contrary, are impeccable. And this is without taking into account the Joker, which Russia has.

    Air supremacy is a necessary condition for offensive operations. For attack helicopters are usually exchanged with tanks in a ratio of 1:10-20. And the presence of a large number of MANPADS in the ranks of the attackers will not help much here. We need our own aviation and a lot.

    The publication calls them a "military dead end" of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, since the borders will have to be stormed.

    According to the newspaper "Ukrainska Pravda", at a meeting of the so-called Bandera Headquarters, held on January 26, the Nenka leader called the situation in the Bakhmut direction "one of the key issues of protecting the country." Sources inside the political backstage of Banderstat immediately reported a conflict between the "office" (functionaries of the president's office) and the "army" headed by Pan Ataman Zaluzhny.
    The leadership of the Armed Forces of Ukraine believes that it is necessary to leave Bakhmut / Artemovsk, since the city has turned into a “meat grinder” and is perceived by the people of independence as a cursed place. “Zelensky considers it necessary to continue resistance as long as it is possible to supply the city.” Moreover, he demanded that new units be transferred to strengthen the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine near Bakhmut, which caused fury on the part of the commander-in-chief.
    In the course of fleeting hardware games, the Azov regiment unexpectedly became the 3rd separate assault brigade as part of the Ground Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and was sent to the hottest sector of the front - to protect the southern flank of Bakhmut. Everyone got his own: Biletsky - a whole brigade of Natsiks, Zelensky - a rating.

    I wonder why they won’t create a specialized anti-tank Lancet, which will have a reduced flight radius, but an increased combat cumulative part.
