Where are those puppies that are saying Ukraine is winning the war.

What's wrong with people like you? You just celebrate anything anti USA. But when Ukraine used common Javelin to sink the almighty indestructible Russian warships, there was no price tag nor any noise about it.

But since it is the kind of news that sweet your ego, you rejoiced

Give us the total figures of the US soldiers killed in Afghanistan in 13 years, and let’s compare it to what a Russia lost in one year 🤣🤣🤣. I want you to give the figures cos you won’t be able to lie about it!

Stop hyping that wack Russian military, that is still struggling with a nation that it shares land boarders with!

I thought your lots said Russia had reserve tanks and where keeping them from major war? How come only one old Soviet Union artifact was paraded in last parade?

Hello! When it comes to warfare, the US is light years of Russia. The statistics are not hidden which I will allow you to present.

Comparing a shithole, to the The United States of America! Russia needs food and not war. They need good heating systems for cold and not tanks!

If not for nukes, even Nigeria will defeat Russia!

Wrong comparison. You can't compare Taliban in Afghanistan to Russia and Ukraine war.
The funding and support plus the arsenals Ukraine has, Taliban doesn't have it.

Take for example the US tries to invade Mexico, then Russia, China and other countries starts arming Mexico, the US will smell pepper 🌶️ just like Russia is having it now. Many US soldiers will be wasted too.

Lol, this is extraordinary copium even with the video (attached to the post in the OP) being Ukrainian livestream video and the source being a western source. Some of you brainwashed peasants have lost it. Lol.

But this clown believes some fiction about patriots shooting down kinzhal missiles with no evidence apart from Ukrainian trust me bro source. Hell yes, the same patriot that had 9% success rate against obsolete scud missiles would whimsically shoot down a much more advanced missiles at 100% success rate, lol.

It's a fucking war - everyone will take Ls. The US military is neither invincible nor as advanced as the Russians in missile technology. Most of you clowns who have zero clue think pulverising backward countries like Iraq and Afghanistan where they were just target practice is what war is about, lol. Reality will hit you soon.
Nobody claims US weapons are invincible so iare also Russian weapons. If you have any modicum of honesty you will admit that this war is the biggest embarrassment for Russia. It never went according to plan or expectations. The dreaded Russian military has being demystified. I for one thought Ukraine will be history by now but she has given Russia the bloody nose. If you knew how many Russian soldiers have been dispatched to the great beyond you won't be saying this. Americans can't bear that level of loss before protests will break out every where. Russia is however not a free country. You are here typing what you like while the real Russians are fleeing their country to avoid going to die in Ukraine. The real cost of war is not equipments but human lives. Yes Russia blew up a patriot missile launcher and Ukraine also shot down the dreaded hypersonic missile, so it is bad market for all of them.

Six hypersonic missiles were shot down.

Possibly. That is the only way hypersonic s can be shot down. If you notice, the first one claimed to have been brought down days ago was said to be targeting the same launcher that brought it down. The missile was at the last stage of flight where it has to slow down and was incomming. The Patroit launched a missile heads on. Ie an easier target.
Secondly, the Ukrainians know when Russian kinzhal hyper missile will be launched, the Americans through awacs or satellites, even Ukrainian spies observing russian airfields where mig31s are located gives them a heads up. Once a mig 31 takes of, the likelihood is that a kinzhal attack is expected so patriots are alerted to track them.
Truth of thr matter, any missile defence system can be overwhelmed with a barrage of strikes.

This news goes ahead to confirm the superiority of American weapons. If the Patriot system intercepted all Russian hypersonic missiles and was only destroyed when it has exhausted her batteries, then the system is worth the hype.

Every air defense system would be destroyed when it doesn't have batteries to defend itself.
The problem is only when the system is destroyed when it still has defense interceptors in stock.

Putin's Russian citizens can benefit more from the funds being siphoned to purchase mansions in the West and the luxury yachts being displayed on the world's oceans and finally they can do without annexing unwilling neighboring countries too

don't just begin by labeling one as the aggressor and the other the victim. Find out the events that transpired and preluded the war before pointing fingers. People don't just attack another without reasons.

Russia would have ended the war sharply in the first week if they used the US system of "shock and awe", where you bomb everything that moves before sending troops in. The Russian army did not want to use overwhelming force eg a shot is fired from a building at Russian troops moving by, they don't shoot back to avoid civilian casualties. In the case of the US, an airstrike will be called on the building or tank rounds used to flatten it. Did you not see videos of civilians standing in front of Russian tank columns and the whole convoy will stop? Soldiers begging them to give way? Whole families of Iraqis were killed by American tanks for not moving out of the way fast enough!
Do you think if over 40 countries were supplying the Iraqis, afghans etc with sofisticated arms, the Americans would have been able to make headway as they did in their invasions?
Forget all the propaganda, Russia has done well under the circumstances. They have paid a high price though by not being ruthless initially.

My annoyance is on people who will rather have a missile hit residential homes or hospital because the interception failed.
