There's a KC-135T Stratotanker (LAGR223) flying a racetrack pattern over eastern Romania. The only other thing I can see in the vicenity is a Globalhawk (FORTE11) flying a racetrack pattern to the west of Crimea, and previously to the south east of that area.
US must have some air assets up there in order for that KC-135T to be there. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Zhukov: On second thought: The pattern of destruction does kind of make sense in retrospect. If I'm a Ukrainian general, I know I'm severely outnumbered. It might be best to disperse your troops and conduct hit-and-run attacks. The only problem with that plan would be that you're ceding territory, and there ain't a whole lot of open road between Belarus and Kiev. Having most of their armor get wrecked trying to stop the Russians from coming in from several directions would be a waste of tanks if they don't have enough of them to be decisive or to withstand artillery when they're fixed. Probably best to keep them safe from artillery and air attack until you can use them for things like finishing off pockets of airborne/air mobile forces and let guys zooming around in light vehicles with ATGM's deal with the columns. |
