Western-trained Ukrainian troops are abandoning US tactics in their counteroffensive to seize back territory from Russia, The New York Times reports.
Ukraine had hoped to punch through Russian positions and make sweeping gains comparable to their counteroffensive in the summer of 2022 when it seized back several strategically important cities.
But the counteroffensive is making slow progress, with troops encountering heavily defended Russian positions, protected by minefields, helicopter gunships, and artillery fire.
Ukrainian units are now ditching plans to attack Russian positions head-on using complicated Western maneuvers and are instead wearing the enemy down with artillery and missile barrages, the Times says.
Analysts told the Times that Western allies of Ukraine pushed for the Ukrainian military to adopt more aggressive offensive tactics.
LOL....Being woke and inclusive pussies didn't work? I'm shocked!
Or:
Ukebro: Colonel, there are giant mine fields ahead."
Ukebro Colonel: Drive right into the minefield !!!"
Burning Ukebro Colonel: "American tactics suck!!!!"
I say send them white flags, it's cheaper that way instead of sending billions when we're broke.
Jokes aside US tactics are fine when you have F22s and Warthogs above you.
