Is Ukraine losing the War?

Since around Mid-May 2022 the reports on the War in Ukraine became more negative when it came to Ukrainian Armed Forces, particularly it was noted many times that the Russian Forces were gaining the upper hand in artillery combat. There was a comparison of ammunition spent, how much artillery the Russian Armed Forces have, the call for more artillery for Ukraine etc. in this video I look first at some of the reporting about the challenges the Ukrainian Forces face and then I will discuss with Stanimir Dobrev https://twitter.com/delfoo the various issues that Russian Forces are facing based on his analysis and experience. We also look into aviation, ammunition, war economy, barrel wear, Syria, West vs. East thinking, long-term vs. short-term, etc. Follow Stanimir on twitter here: https://twitter.com/delfoo Cover Image: Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Anti-terrorist_operation_in_eastern_Ukraine_(War_Ukraine)_(27074095286).jpg, license https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/deed.en »» GET OUR BOOKS «« » Stukabook - Doctrine of the German Dive-Bomber - http://stukabook.com » The Assault Platoon of the Grenadier-Company November 1944 (StG 44) - http://sturmzug.com » Army Regulation Medium Panzer Company 1941 - http://www.hdv470-7.com »» SUPPORT MHV «« » patreon, see videos early (adfree) - https://www.patreon.com/join/mhv » subscribe star - https://www.subscribestar.com/mhv » paypal donation - https://paypal.me/mhvis »» MERCHANDISE «« » teespring - https://teespring.com/stores/military-history-visualized » SOURCES « our brains 00:00 Intro 06:23 Russian problems with Artillery Arm 10:31 Artillery in Offensive vs Defensive 11:46 Lack of Drones 14:25 Gun Barrels getting worn out 16:38 Ammunition problems 18:51 Long term vs. short-term thinking 23:04 Lack of strategic thinking and actions? 24:20 Subsidies for bread & civilian aviation 27:36 Civilian aviation money – deception / maskirovka? 29:04 Strategic & naval bombers 32:26 Full-War Economy? 33:07 Russian Army not setup for long-war 37:28 Strategical Thought with Syria 40:52 Lackluster but effective 44:52 West vs. East 46:23 Pecking order in Russian government 51:25 Ukraine is viewed as a province 53:23 Talking about US, NATO but rarely Ukraine #russiaukraine #ukraine #ukrainewar
