RT @AirPowerNEW1: We needed to see a 5x+ increase in our long range fires programs (ATACMS/PrSM/GMLRS/JASSM/TLAM) back in 2022. What Biden delivered was a very gradual inadequate ramp across only some programs. I hope this changes under GOP leadership but am not holding my breath. https://twitter.com/ColbyBadhwar/status/1858212283349925899#m

RT @shashj: Since when do we judge any individual decision on the basis of whether it will change the course of the war by itself? Yes, this one carries higher risk than others. But policy is always about the aggregate effect of a number of separate and interlocking decisions. https://twitter.com/DanDePetris/status/1858230071095439604#m

RT @externalPilot: так, при влучанні кумулятивного ланцету поруч є величезні шанси вижити, якщо не відбувалося вторинної детонаціїю
не треба думати, що ланцет – універсальна зброя, я знаю десятки випадків, коли після нього ніхто не постраждав

@SydneyFreedberg: The US military isn't going to deploy to Taiwan.
An ally that only takes but does not give is not a real ally.

ATACMS. What is it? Why does it matter so much? How many are there? How many will Ukraine get? Every question you could possibly have, answered. It's the thread you've all been waiting for... 🧵 (1/72)

@Straumli_Realm @AirPowerNEW1: The only thing that ATACMS has that PrSM doesn't is the cluster munition payload. Modular payloads will come with future PrSM Increments.
In hindsight ATACMS production should not have been stopped and started so many times, but that's the reality of budget cuts.

"A new tranche of drones—incuding at least one being used against Russia in Ukraine—will join the Pentagon’s Replicator effort to accelerate the deployment of cheap autonomous systems, Deputy Defense Secretary Kathleen Hicks announced Wednesday...
Among them: Anduril Industries’ Ghost-X and the Performance Drone Works C-100 UAS, as well as classified drones that include 'low-cost long-range strike capabilities and maritime uncrewed systems,' according to the release...
Ukrainian fighters have been using Ghost-X since the first weeks of Russia’s expanded 2022 invasion, said a source familiar with the matter. Having to face off against advanced Russian EW has helped Anduril evolve techniques that could be applicable against similar high-tech adversaries like China."

@AirPowerNEW1 @Straumli_Realm: Right, which is why the FMS orders keep rolling in for it. For the Army, with a limited budget, pivoting to PrSM is obviously the correct decision.

This is a good explanation of what we can infer from the reporting on the ATACMS decision.

For those following the ATACMS decision, just to clarify, FR newspaper Le Figaro did not in fact report a matching UK & French decision. There was an ambiguous sentence about the existing FR/UK positions, now edited out.

@Alex_Oloyede2: Looks like you have a complete disregard for international law. If a sovereign country doesn’t want to negotiate away 20% of its land then the civilians must be bombed and left without electricity for the winter
Why do human pieces of shit like you exist on this earth?

A number of Russian telegram channels claimed yesterday that several commanders from Russia's 3rd Combined Arms Army were arrested or removed from their positions, including the army's commander and chief of staff and the commander of the 7th Motorized Rifle Brigade, for lying about advances in the Siversk direction.
