Regarding my 2nd point, one of the key weaknesses that people on TV or in articles are mentioning to explain the Russian military's failures is the lack of a professional NCO corps. I don't think this is the problem or the correct explanatory variable. 5/

Many Russian platoons only had 15-18 personnel. They still had an officer, an SNCO, and NCOs. USMC squads are approximately the same size and led by NCOs. The bigger issue was the lack of contract infantry privates to fill out these platoons, and they were too top-heavy. 6/

Russia's NCO corps is a weakness, but it wasn't the reason for the Russia's issues in Ukraine and I don't think it really explains the lack of low-level initiative either. A narrative is already forming that this is a key problem, and I don't think the data support that claim. 7/

Many of the articles making claims about modern warfare lessons or the Russian military from this war I think either are a misinterpretation of the evidence or don't consider properly alternative explanations. We should be wary of allowing narratives to form too early. 8/

The people of Lithuania have honorably raised funds to buy a Bayraktar TB2 for Ukraine.
Upon learning this, Baykar will gift a Bayraktar TB2 to Lithuania free of charge and asks those funds go to Ukraine for humanitarian aid.

@Nrg8000 This is the case for so many cities with the exact same name having hundreds of settlements in Ukraine. It’s extremely confusing.

Sweden will send anti-ship missiles, anti-tank weapons and 12.7 mm rifles including ammunition to 🇺🇦. This 4th support package also includes financial contribution to the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Total amount includes more than 95 million euros. Russia’s war against 🇺🇦 must stop!
