Oh I'm sure that EVERYONE is going to be watching the buildup and mobilization of troops and equipment. We and everyone watching Russia and Russia watching Ukraine and the EU.i see, a good post. once you have time, It would be great to know your opinion on "big push" logistic (old ussr style ?) , is it possible under watch of our satellites , drones and rain of our HIMARS rockets
Timing is going to be crucial. Cloudy days are what hide troops from satellites...but clouds don't hide planes. However surveillance drones are too small to be seen....and they are going to be flying high and often.
Russia needs perfect weather conditions to move once inside of Ukraine. (Early spring/late winter) they need slightly muddy but mostly frozen fields. So does Ukraine....to answer the moving Russians.
And that's what they are waiting for. Because if one side settles in first before the other can...the other side has to wait for summer for the muddy ground to dry out so they can move more effectively.
Now Russia has almost finished this round of training draftees. (Conscripts...and there will be more) So now these trainees get to move equipment. But let's get real...these are people who really don't want to be there. They aren't volunteers.
