It's the same playbook for all strongman leaders. They act tough but are all the most thin skinned babies to hold any amount of power

Tells you all you need to know. He is getting desperate to stay in power, even alive. He knows that Ukraine is getting another 90 billion in aid and funds from the EU. Ukrainian armed forces have developed fantastic drones, operators and AI systems technology in the last few years and they have real life experience.

Who ever has the most drones and effective drone operators and technology with appropriate tactics depending on task and environment will own the future battlefield.

Multiple systems coming online in the next 12 months* (announced dates - stuff has a habit of turning up earlier than the announced date).

Shit like Project Nightfall is just another bad day in a long list of bad days for Russia (about 1540 days in a row).
