assault without all the pieces needed for such an assault. What is galling, though, is looking at what they did do with the penny packet deliveries of systems the West did provide. The HIMAARS, Storm Shadow, PATRIOT, Gepard. All had outsized impacts on the conflict relative to the numbers deployed. But they were piecemeal. It's almost as if we want to push, but not TOO hard...to not be seen as the reason for victory in terms of equipment. And since the Ukrainians have killed off all the stupid generals, the Russians will eventually grind Ukraine down. We missed the window to make a difference with equipment deliveries.
