On the front line in east and south Ukraine, reports say the situation is increasingly desperate, with Russia outfiring Ukraine at a rate of three to one. Senior Ukrainian military officials, talking to Politico, said that Russia could break through wherever it focuses its anticipated summer offensive. AdvertisementThe role of the WestUkraine is on a "starvation diet" for aid, George Barros, an expert at the Institute for the Study of War, told BI. Anadolu/Getty ImagesAnalysts also say that weaknesses in Russia's military are limiting the Kremlin's ability to take advantage of the situation. "For Ukraine to suffer total defeat, we'd need to see a major collapse in Ukrainian lines and morale," he said.

☆ Xi Jinping is hyping China as Ukraine's peacemaker — while actually helping Russia's invasion

Read previewChina's leader, Xi Jinping, played the role of Ukraine's peacemaker during talks on Tuesday with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz. At the meeting in Beijing, Xi presented his German counterpart with four principles for peace in Ukraine, according to Chinese state media. AdvertisementThe principles are vague and similar to a Ukraine peace plan proposed by China last year. But despite these public statements, analysts say that Xi's claims to be a peacemaker are a charade and that in reality, China is increasing support for Russia's military. AdvertisementThis is in addition to the diplomatic and economic support China has already given the Kremlin.

☆ The Russians painted elaborate camouflage on their warships in Crimea to try to confuse Ukraine's maritime drones, but that didn't stop Ukraine from decimating 2 vessels and setting the Sevastopol por

They even painted some ships with camouflage stripes, hoping it would confuse drone sensors. But the latest Ukrainian missile attack on a shipyard in Sevastopol damaged two ships anyway. The Russian Black Sea Fleet's base in Sevastopol, a city in Russia-controlled Crimea, was attacked by missiles in the early hours of Wednesday. It is unclear if the two vessels hit in Wednesday's attack had the camouflage stripes painted on them.

☆ Russia is painting dark stripes on its warships to make them look smaller and confuse Ukrainian drones, says expert

Russia is painting some of its warships with camouflage stripes, an open-source analyst said. The ship might also appear smaller thanks to the dark paint against the water. In his own analysis, Sutton noted how dark the water often appears in such imagery, making it an effective camouflage for dark paint. The use of naval camouflage would be an interesting return for a tactic more associated with World War 1 and World War 2. The British navy pioneered the use of "dazzle" stripes and patterns in World War 1, as seen below on the USS Minneapolis, which were intended to confuse onlookers as to the speed and direction of vessels.

☆ The US is sharing a once highly-guarded missile system that will make British and Australian nuclear submarines far more deadly
  + stars: | 2023-03-14 | by ( Tom Porter | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +2 min
The US, UK, and Australia on Monday announced plans for Australia to obtain a new fleet of nuclear-powered submarines. The deal will involve building at least eight nuclear-powered submarines for the Australian naval fleet, using UK designs, and underpinned by a US-made vertical launch system. According to reports, the new Australian submarines will also have the capacity to fire cruise missiles through the vertical launch system. The fact that they are nuclear-powered means the submarines can operate at far greater distances, and stay submerged for longer. The new Australian submarines will begin operation in the 2040s, and the new UK subs in the 2030s.
