@KyivIndependent They need to take territory back. They can’t just have defensive weapons. They need to go on the offensive. US is giving every single Nato country offensive weapons but can’t give Ukraine offensive weapons who actually need it because Russia will purposely take it the wrong way.

If Ukraine only had MANPADS, Russian aviation would be operating more effectively. Russian aircraft have changed their TTPs, putting them at greater risk to MANPADS, because they assess the threat from S-300 and Buk-M1 is greater and because of issues with targeting systems. 25/

This part isn't true. Russia is having success conducting air strikes in the Donbas because Ukraine can't afford to push valuable S-300 and Buk-M1 systems into the Donbas salient where they could be targeted by Russian artillery. MANPADS are not sufficient here. 26/

The US Air Force could conduct an effective SEAD/DEAD campaign against Ukraine's air defenses because it is better trained, has better aircraft (including reconnaissance aircraft), and has better PGMs than the Russian Air Force. Those capabilities are expensive. 27/

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.
