Any conformation on what’s happening? Or more accurate maps.

Werewolf wrote:So, Ukrainian jets are completely denied to fly in Ukraine by Russian Airforce and PVO, but now they have HARM and maybe, big maybe, have fitted it on 2-4 jets and want to launch a mediocre missile with just max 150km range while S-400 can snipe it out of the sky before they can launch it?
If they made some jet fighters able to launch this HARMs then they are basically sending them on a suicide mission just for a chance to hit something for Twitter giggles?
I assume after calling HARM "mediocre" our Seig will come and run his mouth again.

1 - have not called up reserves.
2 - these volunteers all have military experience
3 - are used to hold the line in many areas. Including the Belarus border this is about 2,400 kms.
4 - guarding the rear and lines of supply
5 - this military action has revealed a shortage in the organization of actual infantry foot soldiers. Needed to clear urban and forested areas.

It looks like 7 explosions occured

Impossible to pull a sabotage for such VIP place. UA has no means to do much even in less depth.
We will find out soon during the briefing

Crimea is among the heaviest defended areas in Russia. I would put a possibility of multiple penetration close to zero.
