Media sources report that Russia has learned from its early mistakes. Now the Russian Federation has established coordination of air and ground attacks, as well as logistics on the front lines.
The US does not expect the new weapons systems recently delivered to Ukrainian forces, including the HIMARS multiple launch rocket system, to immediately make a difference on the battlefield.
The reasons for this are the limited range of the MLRS and the insufficient number of missiles that were handed over to Ukraine. In addition, CNN claims that the Russian army has already destroyed some of the equipment that was transferred by Western partners, in particular M777 howitzers.
US intelligence predicts heavy losses of manpower and equipment on both sides. Also, the United States is confident that the war has finally passed to the stage of attrition, and Russia wants to test the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the determination of NATO.
