For Western defence companies, Ukraine is not just another customer and it should not be treated as a convenient testing ground. The companies most likely to succeed are the ones willing to stay close, accept uncomfortable feedback and adapt faster than the battlefield changes. 9.1K views · 51 likes · 9 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

A short thread on emerging Russian capabilities and activities that I’m watching through the fall as Russia’s summer offensives peak: increased drone and targeted glide bomb use, new drones and cruise missiles, and Donetsk ops /1 https://t.co/5QHmaQISTa 69.2K views · 409 likes · 129 reposts · 8 replies Open on X →

Yes👇. When talking about Russian escalation, precision is imperative. There’s an escalating set of Russian-linked attacks in NATO countries that cannot be ignored. Russia is escalating the intensity of its bombardment of Ukraine. Loose talk on nukes is highly counterproductive. 60.9K views · 296 likes · 64 reposts · 6 replies Open on X →

If the Russian recruiting ad says “Cooks needed for rear-echelon units (not assault!)”, you are going to the zero line on assault. Come on now, it’s 2026. https://t.co/9TH854hk1X 28.7K views · 512 likes · 42 reposts · 11 replies Open on X →

Russian recruiters are luring people into military service by promising they won't be sent into combat. In reality, they're signing standard military contracts. https://t.co/EyGvK5Y0HE 35.9K views · 35 likes · 17 reposts · 3 replies Open on X →

@MassDara @ForeignAffairs Important, well written, and I trust the author implicitly, but for those who study such issues seriously, it is maddening not to have a single reference. 1.9K views · 8 likes · 0 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →

@MassDara @ForeignAffairs A must-read from @MassDara It did make me think of the German experience in WWI and whether all of this learning is focused on solving tactical dilemmas, while ignoring the real strategic problem. 910 views · 5 likes · 2 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

@MassDara @irgarner @ForeignAffairs Very important analysis by @MassDara 👍Details are open to debate but the key recommendation on the need to pay attention to 🇷🇺military adaptation is timely. Let’s not forget that WAR is Putin’s regime only business and national priority it take 865 views · 5 likes · 1 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

Since early 2023, the Russian military has constructed a learning ecosystem to not only adapt to war but institutionalize its combat experience. It remains a flawed organization but it is preparing for the future. My latest ⁦⁦⁦@ForeignAffairs⁩ https://t.co/8yLkNieip3 107.5K views · 542 likes · 180 reposts · 28 replies Open on X →
