  1. In Topic: The Russia Politics and War in Ukraine Thread

    Yesterday, 09:11 PM

    Apparently Russia has internally set targets of 410,000 new recruits in 2026. This is basically the same target as in 2025. This strongly suggests that Putin has bottled on declaring a larger mobilisation.

    Given the dramatic rise in monthly Russian casualties in late 2025 and sustained through early 2026, this could see the Russians end the year with a significantly smaller army than it started the year with, unlike last year where they just about managed to end where they started.

    Russian push on Lyman resulting in about 300 casualties and 70 (!) destroyed vehicles in the space of a few hours, though some of those vehicles may have been quad bikes and (er) horses.

  2. In Topic: Israel and Iran

    Yesterday, 09:01 PM

    The Chinese high-end reconnaissance vessel Liaoweng-1 has arrived off the coast of Oman with two escorting destroyers from the Chinese Navy. Liaoweng-1 is the most sophisticated command-and-control vessel in the Chinese Navy, and is equipped with powerful radars. The US is concerned these can detect F-35s.

    Presumably by sheer coincidence, an Iranian ground defence system acquired an F-35 over southern Iran and directed fire at it, damaging the aircraft. It was able to make an emergency landing at a friendly airstrip.

    Qatar has extended its blistering criticism of the conflict to the USA, with Trump brazenly lying by saying it had no idea Israel was going to hit the Iranian oil fields. Qatar's PM has now implied that Trump is in Putin's pocket, since Russia is benefitting from the curent chaos (whilst Ukraine has sent anti-drone teams to Qatar).

    The World Health Organisation is modelling a contingency of Israel and/or the USA using nuclear weapons over Iran.

  3. In Topic: The Russia Politics and War in Ukraine Thread

    18 March 2026 - 11:51 PM

    Absolutely wild claims that a large-scale Russian counter-offensive on the Zaporizhzhia-Donetsk front (almost from Hulaiyapole to Pokrovsk, which is about a thir dof the entire front) was halted primarily by unmanned systems, some of them operating autonomously, with over 1,700 Russian casualties in a 24-hour period. The Russian reports on Telegram are absolutely stunned, saying they were ordered onto the offensive without artillery support and only minimal drones, and were then met by a wall of enemy drones. Apparently the advance was ordered under fog cover but the Ukrainian optics could just see through it.

  4. In Topic: Israel and Iran

    18 March 2026 - 11:48 PM

    Iran launched more ballistic missiles today than since the fourth day of the war, and more drones than any day since the second. So much for the gradual degradation of their launch capabilities.

    Unconfirmed footage showing something crazy, some of the missiles are launching from sites partially covered in sand, so you can barely see the missiles before they launch. Trying to work out if this is actually real.

  5. In Topic: Israel and Iran

    18 March 2026 - 08:48 PM

    The UK's National Security Advisor and a team of experts with technical knowledge of the negotiations and experience in the regional politics attended the US-Iran peace talks just before the war started. The team was surprised at the concessions Iran made, and judged that Iran was certainly willing to concede more. They were also worried that Witkoff and Kushner (who lacked any such advisors) didn't seem to know what TF they were talking about.

    The UK's decision not to get involved was based on the conclusion that the conflict was definitely illegal because no evidence was shown of an imminent threat to the US or UK, and that the Americans had basically abandoned the peace process despite strong (and rapid) progress was being made.

    Wert, Sorry you didn't get your map question answered in Erikson's AMA. I had my fingers crossed. But check out the last 30 seconds of this new Critical Dragon interview. Erikson pulls out a sheaf of maps! So something still exists. Maybe something ICE needs for future PtA books.
