    From the article:

    *The United States will provide Ukraine with long-range Joint Standoff Weapon (JSOW) munitions, U.S. President Joe Biden announced.*

    *He said, presenting U.S. support to Ukraine on Thursday: “To enhance Ukraine’s long-range strike capabilities, I have decided to provide Ukraine with the Joint Standoff Weapon (JSOW) long-range munition.*

    Wait, I thought they’re not allowing them to attack inside Russia with long range missiles? An I getting confused?

    Long range is a vague statement, Zelensky wants to be able to strike 300 km into Russia and these particular munitions can only accomplish 1/3 of that.

    Maybe just another click bait title.

    1. Not long range
    2. Slow and easy to detect well in advance
    3. GPS-guided so easily spoofable
    4. Air-launched from high altitude which is risky for the aircraft
    5. Costs $300k for what is basically a glorified glide bomb

    This weapon is a (yet another) way for the admin to maximize cost while minimizing effect.

  5. It won’t be a gamechanger.

    The US does not want Ukraine to win the war otherwise they would provide them with all the weapons needed TODAY.

    They want to drip feed additional weapons to keep Ukraine appeased.

    The west won’t admit they don’t want Russia to be defeated because a Russian defeat will lead to them doing something crazy. So the west are happy to slow march the Ukrainians into the meat grinder to prevent the war spreading in the hope Putin will get tired and eventually end the war.

    The best thing the US can do is help Ukrainians build their own long-range missiles in large quantities. Then the conundrums regarding using Western weapons to strike deep inside Russia go away.

    Russia is already doing this by rebranding Iranian drones as their own, Ukraine should do the same.

    Better than nothing.
    The goal of the war is not to attack Russia, it’s to keep Russia dumping people and money on the problem, weakening their already mostly spent Soviet leftovers, and undermine Pooty’s credibility more.
    That’s kinda how the Soviet dictatorship collapsed, out classed, and out spent.

  8. I know the Ukrainians deserve revenge but I hope they stick to military targets.

    As much as a direct hit on Moscow would be the cherry on top of Putin’s failed war, if they only target military positions they’re less likely to experience a real escalation from Moscow.

    I don’t think the Russians would go nuclear if the Ukrainians only hit Russian military around Ukrainian territory. I absolutely think the Russians would drop a small nuke if they thought they were going to get hammered on their capitol.

    Good shit. Can’t wait for another temper tantrum from toddler putin in response.

    Ukraine will never be allowed to win. Because that would mean ww3. Usa, Germany and everyone knows this. This will end unfortunately with Ukraine making concessions. There is no other way around it.
