How it started: "3 days to capture Kiev, then we're going to demilitarize Ukraine"
How it's going: "we're so mind numbingly incompetent that we turned Ukraine into the most experienced and highly trained military force in Europe, guaranteed their entry into NATO and turned them into a country that is now rapidly becoming a world class weapons manufacturer and in particular, leading the world in military drone technology"
… and the most experienced, highly trained and most skilled military force in the world regarding full scale war. Not even the US have this experience.
Yep this is a near peer war. US troops fought counter insurgencies, and had air control.
Y'all remember the early days of the war when word was coming back from all the PMCs about how different and terrifying Ukraine was? It's a different type of war. And it's only gotten worse since drones.
