minus-squareThe Snark Urge@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·8 months agoThis is what scares me - the idea that we could run out of conventional weapons during a hot war, and start having to think of all those nukes lying around “doing nothing” Some powers really are too much for humans.

minus-squareFarceOfWill@infosec.publinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·8 months agoWestern military uses bombs and missiles from planes not artillery. There isn’t much artillery ammo because our military isn’t set up to use it. Ukraine doesn’t have the air superiority to risk doing the same thing so the way they fight doesn’t match the way Europe or the us does.
