Back in the late 80's and early 90's, both Russia and Ukraine demonstrated the Mig-29 and Sukhoi 27 at the Abbotsford airshow. Also the Antonov 225 which was the worlds largest aircraft designed to carry the Soviet space shuttle. Antonov is a Ukrainian company and the only AN 225 was destroyed in a Russian attack a week or so ago.

What impressed me was the SU-27 which is a very large Mach 2+ aircraft did its whole routine within the airport boundary.

The Mig and Sukhoi were sensational, doing maneuvers no one had seen from jet fighters like tail slides and the Cobra where the Sukhoi pitches up more than 90 degrees and almost seems to fly backward for a second before pitching back into forward flight.

Canon scrumbag who gave Tucker Carlson talking points exposed.

It's wild how the QAnon movement and its various wacky offshoots have metastasized and basically become the bedrock philosophy of the GOP (witness their recent embrace of calling anyone who doesn't agree with their repressive anti-freedom of speech laws ****.)

But there are biolabs in Ukraine

Which has nothing to do with the biolab conspiracy theory.

I don't know about any of that, but Biden's Undersecretary testified about them in front of Congress a few weeks ago.  They were quite concerned that Russia would get control of them, and their contents.

I can't tell if you're being disingenuous on purpose or literally have snails in you skull.

The media is in a full push to advocate for NATO and the United States to get directly involved in the war.  They’re actually pressing the Biden administration to put American troops in Ukraine to fight Russian troops.

trideNtrue snowball throwing tactic: throw attention distracting snowballs high into the air... shortly followup with direct assault!

Ukraine follows tactic with distracting drones dropping a few bombs on the 'flagship of the Russian Black Sea Fleet', the guided missile cruiser, 'Moskva'... shortly followed by {2} Neptune missiles that ultimately caused the Moskva to sink.

Would it not be prudent for Ukraine to just give the Donbass and Luhansk to Russia? It appears that Russia would rather destroy these regions than let Ukraine retain them.

It's weird that Russia "needs" more territory, but I suspect these regions are ethically Russian anyway.

I'm not being pro-Russian here, but fighting for these regions just means a protracted war and Western resources spent on regions that'll be in Civil War for decades.
