This deserves to be remembered!

In toppling Assad, Syrians have overcame a challenge that almost everyone by mid-2024 considered impossible - strongly reminding everyone that if you have a strong will and determination, you can beat even "impossible" challenges.
Some great news :)

This evaluation of the US ISV might be worth archiving for when one of the units equipped with this garbage is deployed into combat and (predictably) takes heavy losses

I really dont see the point in the US military using an equivalent of "assault Lada".

I mistrust Rutte about production numbers (in the past he has posted a whole bunch of inaccurate numbers), but it wouldnt surprise me if NATO has by now approximately matched the Russian (presumably artillery) ammo production.

Rutte: NATO Already Produces More Ammunition than Russia - Militarnyi
At the NATO forum in Bucharest, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte announced that NATO countries now produce more ammunition than Russia.

"US Army to buy 1M small drones"

IMO, it would be great to buy battle-tested Ukrainian drones - this would utilize the Ukrainian production capacity, extra revenue would help Ukraine fund its defense, and USA would get battle-tested cost efficient drones.

Check out the latest Russia Contingency. I join the head of Lasar’s Group, one of Ukraine’s best and lesser known drone units to talk about their experience, how drone use is evolving, adaptation on both sides, and what the future holds.

FYI: if you have a Starlink terminal inactive since 2024, you need to turn it on ASAP and let it download and install an updated firmware (subscription doesnt need to be active for this) - or it might be in-effect bricked in a few weeks.

The Ukrainian USF stats for October (minus a couple of hours that remain) - since June, they have almost doubled their claimed/reported numbers of inflicted Russian casualties.
