#Wagner’s March on Moscow
#DrJackWatlin #RUSI

Interesting...

"Wagner is not, however, simply a mercenary organisation. Its finances and equipment for the most part come from Russia’s []GRU. GRU officers use Wagner units as cover and are deployed with their forces around the world. In Ukraine, transfers of equipment to Wagner were arranged through the 22nd Special Service Brigade of the GRU. [] Many of its personnel are also employees of Russia’s special services."

@JamieMayerfeld Interesting report with some sobering lessons for NATO forces and especially UK, eg "British military is woefully deficient in its stockpiles across domains... At Ukrainian rates of consumption, British stockpiles would potentially last a week"!

@dmitri Great as always. I have a quibble with the #RUSI analysts take that the #VKS doesn't worry about SEAD/DEAD since #NATO doesn't prioritize air defense artillery. ADA is less important to NATO than air superiority but a quick look at NATO ADA capabilities shows more than the UKR military has available.
NATO:
>600 Patriot/SAMP/T/S300
>100 Hawk variants
>100 Skyguard/Crotale/NASAMS

RUSI seems excessively focused on UK and FR force design (for obvious reasons) for this kind of analysis.

Ukraine has been using German-made #Gepard anti-aircraft gun to shoot down Russia's #Shahed-136 drones. Justin Bronk, from the London-based defence and security think tank #RUSI, told Forces News that the Gepard is very effective against Russian #LoiteringMunitions because of it's air-bursting 35mm ammunition.
