the tank has become outmoded as the main source of battlefield power thanks to weapons like the Javelin and the Turkish drones being used by the Ukranians.
Could not agree more just watch this Russian tank destroyed by launcher, hit right on the top and you can see the devastation it caused. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UD8A18rM9oU

I used to be an optimist but with age I am now a grumpy old pessimist.

I've just watched this video, in which Ward Carroll, a retired USN aviator, talks to Justin Bronk from the Royal United Services Institute, in London. Justin is an expert on aviation matters, and his analysis of the Russian air force's shortcomings, the impracticality (and legal issues) of transferring Polish MiGs to Ukraine, and the significant risks of trying to establish a no-fly zone, are well worth listening to.
Thanks for sharing this, Paul. Very interesting information.
It's another YT channel worth bookmarking, Brian. A lot of interesting guests, including many of his old USN colleagues. He cuts through all the hyperbole and BS floating around. Look for the one about a Tomcat intercepting a Vulcan heading towards the carrier - very amusing.
Its a similar thing to the R1 Sentinels we used to have. Nowadays the Global Hawk is used. I’ve seen a few of the US ones up, they have a huge range and endurance.
They've been keeping an eye on that area sporadically. Another thing of interest is that an RAF A400 has been making ( presumably?) deliveries to the very far NE of Norway over the last few days
