The AMX10 might struggle a bit in the wintry season. It was designed as light and wheeled for speedy intervention un Western Europe using roads to get to to the front.
Regardless. I am still worried about us running out of things to provide Ukraine before Russia runs out itself of weapons.
I would prefer to deliver to Ukraine new products freshly built as a confirmation that the west can support Ukraine for the long run that this war could be.
It’s only about 15 tons, so should be ok with chains in the mud. Possibly even an advantage over some vehicles.
I think the west has changed gear, the ruskis raised 300k mobiks, already a good number are dead, this hasn’t really caused many problems for putin, and now it seems his plan is to throw another million Russian bodies in, and see if this makes a difference. West hoped this would make Russian people do something, or make putin reconsider, doesn’t seem to be happening. So the west needs to move up, and it seems it is. 100 micv, U.K. talks of ‘tanks’. The air defence improvements seem to be holding, ukr strikes Russian air bases etc. and massed Russian troops get himard…
West is also building new vehicles for Ukraine, and ramping up missiles and arty shells.
It continues to be a meat grinder, seemingly over some mid level city none of us has ever heard of. It’s really a joke, any half sane leader would have somehow found a ceasefire, blame some general, convieniently near a window, and promise a better tomorrow. Maybe west starts to realise we need to not just hold Russia, but actually defeat them, in 2023. Better get on with it. West has better things to do than this.
