Exactly, creature comforts in war is more important than people think, especially those people designing the protruding things that you will always bounce against.
There is a special circuit in hell for those military designers.

Yes, but that didn't have much of an effect in the first few days.
And, if the invasion had been led by a good general the preparation and planning wouldn't have been totally cocked up.
That was also part of the wargaming.
Well, at least I learned that I'm better than the Russian generals...

I have made a career on being jealous on that tank-kettle, and most of all, the automatic track-tensioning button. 😁

The DSA has opted out of the equation for reasons most Orange.
For the foreseeable future the DSA is not in the Democratic Alliance led by EU, so we need to make certain that we build and sustain the largest army.

After experiencing Ukraine I'm not overly happy with tanks on the battlefield, but if you must have them they should be ever so comfy.
All military vehicles needs to become more comfy to raise battlefield endurance in my book.

Yes, Abrams are pretty good.
But the English take the cake, they even have a teamaker built into their darn comfy tanks.

Now you know why.
A modern army is run on spreadsheets and very fast computers.

If Russia had a general with a functioning brain they would most likely have won the war in the first 3 months.
We wargamed it, Russia should have won.
But for many reasons they completely cocked it up.
I shudder what would have happened if Zhukov had led the invasion.

EU with friends and allies are pushing 1 billion now, and we are still growing as a "state", Union and alliance.
While the US made enemies, we made friends.
A lot of friends.

It is sort of doubted nowadays that China has that population in reality.
It is probably why China has millions of empty apartments, they got built on demographic statistics that was not real.
But my real point was...

In some military sectors AI will take over command decissions, especially in very fast paced sectors like air fights and where the dynamics on the battlefield is to complex for the human mind to control.

I agree, we truly should have these discussion, and make more demands on our governments and EU.

Hence why I wrote this thread, a small glimps into how we now perceive and perform warfare.

Attrition is a different topic, but I can say that the Ukrainian ratio is sufficiently good to outpace Russia, and it has steadily improved during the war as Russia has lost weight of fire whereas Ukraine has not.
That is as good as I can explain in open coms.

The thing with China is to not hear what they are saying, but to look at what they are doing.
Unless you have a detailed contract with payment instructions, you have nothing with China.
Where are the Chinese army (mostly) located?
On the Russian border towards Outer Manchuria.

Yes he did, but now every aspect is being based on statistical analysis.
This war is based on mathematical models, and that is a far bigger concept breakthrough than drones are.
