their winter will be tough
Bets as to when those last two are hit?
Not soon enough
It will be a while as the distance and mountains mean they are much harder to hit. Not that Ukraine can't hit them, but the vast majority of what they have cannot reach that far, and they rest they need to choose targets.
Everything in Europe has been hit.
Right. And at some point then comes the decision of ROI. Leaving those final two untouched is more than likely more than worth it when there are so many other targets worth hitting / rehitting with the current resources*
- That includes the actual drones and all the time/people/intel investment needed.
Yeah but this is like grinding MMO raids for the last bit of gear to drop in a set that you need, sometimes you just got to do it for the sense of completion.
Don't you want to be able to hang a poster with a map of all the oil infrastructure with nice little explosion icons for the map pins and a list of dates a location was hit for every location of that type in russia?
The sum is more than all the parts put together here is what I am saying.
I mean, I hear you. But also, no. This is literally a war of attrition and inflicting max logistical societal pain possible for the lowest cost to achieve a desired outcome. If doing as you say can further than, then yes, but there are likely much better targets to hit for now.
maybe one of the balloon drones can hit it. depends on wind tho
and russia not just downing it with another drone. not like it would be hard to spot.
But I like your out of the box thinking.
Can we set up a betting pool or several on here? No reason to bring those wall street parasites into it. We could set up a small betting pool ourselves. I have no insight into this, but other stuff.
I'm getting fucking betting ads in my Ukrainian war updates now...
Kidding mostly...but we don't need to introduce betting to any more than what it's already intertwined with
Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice.
