Ukraine Seeks F16s, Patriot Missiles, & Leopard Tanks - Russian Ops in Ukraine , 2022

Update on Russian military operations in Ukraine for September 18, 2022 - Ukrainian offensives in Kherson and Kharkov have both ground to a halt; - Near Kherson, a Russian strike on a dam up-river of the Ingulets has flooded crossings, isolating Ukrainian bridgeheads east of the river; - Ukrainian forces have been fighting for days attempting to take eastern Kopiansk with no success as Russian reinforcements arrive; - Potential Ukrainian offensives elsewhere are still a possibility; - Winter fighting may see Russian military aviation given the advantage as Ukrainian forces’ ability to hide in forests diminishes; - The US is sending fewer and fewer weapons and ammunition to Ukraine; - Future talk of sending advanced weapons from Patriots and F-16’s, to Grey Eagle drones and Leopard main battle tanks ignore how impractical this aid would be; References: Live UA Map: Military Summary Channel - Ukraine.
