I fundamentally disagree that any technology we've seen in Ukraine proves the balance of modern warfare has changed "very much against the attacker." There is plenty of modern equipment and different TTPs that can be used by the attacker to give them the advantage. 28/

The increasing capability of UAVs helps both the defender and attacker. Advances in air defenses can be offset by longer-range munitions and UAVs launching those munitions. Assuming this development will only aid the defender is questionable. 29/

Much has been made of Russian tank losses to ATGMs (even though artillery has destroyed more of them), but plenty of Russian tank losses were not K-Kills. Whereas, there aren't many cases where Russian BMPs, BTRs, or MT-LBs withstood a direct ATGM hit that wasn't catastrophic.30/

The lesson from this war isn't that NATO militaries should do away with armor, it is that they need to employ them correctly through combined arms. We should be wary of anyone saying there have been revolutionary changes that should drastically change the structure of militaries.

Before anyone says this, I think the US Marine Corps was right to divest from tanks, but the US Army and most other NATO armies should not. The USMC has a specific and unique challenge and it needed to find savings for new investments that could only come from vertical cuts.

@RALee85 I also don't know where the idea that Russian airpower in Donbas has been 'neutered' comes from - dozens of soldiers from numerous fronts there have described to me daily strikes by both jets and helicopters on their positions

RT @RALee85: Thread: I completely disagree with this article's conclusions, and I think it stems from a misinterpretation of the data. Tanks, fighters, and ships are not "being pushed into obsolescence" and we are mostly seeing incremental changes in warfare.

@AlexLuck9 Glad we agree on this. Yeah, it is rare when I disagree with every part of an article, both the evidence and conclusions.
