Amid Moscow’s strategic and operational counteroffensive, the Russian military is moving forward, creating cauldrons and meticulously neutralizing the Neo-Nazi junta’s fighting potential. October and November have been an unmitigated disaster for the Kiev regime, as it effectively lost at least 10,000 men who are now trapped thanks to its suicidal policy of “fighting to the last Ukrainian”. However, the operations of Russian ground troops are just one segment of the Kremlin’s approach. Namely, they’re backed by what’s now an unrivaled fire support system that includes everything from light infantry mortars to hypersonic missiles. This is not to say that it was always like that. At the very beginning of the special military operation (SMO), the Russian military suffered from what every massive system has – bloated bureaucracy.

Namely, back in early 2022, it usually took at least 45 minutes to get artillery support, which allowed the Neo-Nazi junta forces to successfully conduct “shoot-and-scoot” tactics, particularly with the grossly overhyped and exorbitantly overpriced US-made HIMARS MLRS (multiple launch rocket system). This partially contributed to its lionization by the mainstream propaganda machine which presented it as some sort of an “unbeatable wunderwaffe”. However, after several months of streamlining redundant bureaucracy, the Russian military reduced the time required for fire support to several minutes at most (usually around 45 seconds to two minutes). One of the direct consequences of this was that HIMARS soon became nearly obsolete, as it could no longer hit Russian military and civilian targets with relative impunity.

Obviously, massive improvements in Moscow’s ISR (intelligence, surveillance,........
