Ukrainian tank sniping via drones.

This is absolutely an incredibly different War than all of our previous wars.

A bunch of recycled warfare from turn at the century as well as technological advancements have shifted this conflict into something that no one could have expected.

I'm sitting on the side trying to understand what's all going on on the other side of the globe.

However Western munitions and equipment are starting to flow over more and watching more and more soldiers with AR-15 pattern rifles as well as Magpul gen 3 window p Mags?

We are absolutely watching more and more shift from the AK-74 standard battle rifle to the AR-15 platform. And absolutely makes sense with the accessible amount of 556 ammo in Europe.

You keep seeing the integration of unmanned aerial assets to such a high precedent level and I especially have to point out the really nice thousand dollar maybe 1500 smart controller or the DJI drone that they were using but were not picturing.

Not to mention other DJI products and I am guessing also for the interchangeability for the batteries. We are guessing multiple flights throughout the day.

I'm noticing the multiple carefully constructed and dug out shelters and foxholes with waterproofing.

A highly dangerous game of cat and mouse. And of course the conversation targeting with those open source coordinates that Russian forces tried to use to return fire to suppress and deny battle damage assessment however. As you're looking at that landscape with multiple Russian armored vehicles resting quiet and covered in rust as well as clearly disabled, you start to get an idea of how much blood has been spilled by both sides.

How I guess it's a little bit more difficult to tell the Russians to go back to their side of the border and pay for the damage.
