Russia can't afford expensive night-vision technology to fight Ukrainian forces at night. An expert told Insider that, at the end of the day, Russia just can't afford to equip its forces with expensive night-vision capabilities. And it's not just these nighttime warfighting capabilities that Russian forces lack. In those campaigns, Barros said, he's rarely seen night-vision optics being funded. There are plenty of benefits to attacking Russian forces at night, especially if they're unprepared to fight back effectively.

European countries are continuing to press Germany to green light Leopard tanks to Ukraine. One military expert told Insider that these German-made weapons are the "right tank" to send. One military expert said the much-sought-after tanks are the "right" tanks to send to Ukraine at this moment and would be "militarily useful" depending on how many are sent, but don't expect them to be a "silver bullet." Germany has been reluctant to send its Leopards or permit other countries that operate the German-made armor to send tanks to Ukraine, and some countries are growing impatient. The foreign minister said on Monday that while Warsaw will seek Germany's permission, his country will "certainly" send the formidable Leopard tanks to Ukraine.
