"US spending of 5.6% of its defense budget to destroy nearly half of Russia’s conventional military capability seems like an absolutely incredible investment."

2 unidentified European countries, with US backing, are reportedly set to purchase hundreds of old Merkava II and III tanks from Israel.
I have a notion about where these tanks might end up, or at least where the tanks they'll be replacing will end up.

At least 100 incredibly cheap ($1000-$5000) Australian drones made of cardboard+rubber bands are being delivered to Ukraine every month.
Designed to be totally expendable, some have completed 60 flights and drop bombs, deliver supplies, or conduct recon.

This myth that the Afghan security forces didn't fight at all needs to die a painful death.
As of April they were taking 30-50, sometimes more, casualties a day, fighting with no logistical support or backup until they ran out of food and ammo.

Russian commentators are very scared of a collapse in this area and an offensive towards Volnovakha and Mariupol via Vuhledar.
Strelkov says if the offensive is launched, the front will melt like Kharkiv and Ukraine will quickly retake the area.
A grim message from Strelkov on reports of Ukraine concentrating forces in the Vuhledar direction, warning they could get to the Sea of Azov (and Volnovakha and Mariupol) and the front could collapse as in Kharkiv.

is doing a tremendous public service translating the accounts of Russian soldiers that fought in Ukraine, and in the process corroborating my initial impression that Russia doesn't actually *have* a cohesive military in any relevant sense of the word.
I understand the major teething issues in the early days trying to coordinate an invasion this large, but this is something else. It's like Russia doesn't have a single military, but hundreds of militias just doing their own thing. Can't make head or tail of it.
