These were intermittent battles reflecting Iraqi insurgency model of warfare which was DEADLY in its own right. Iraqi can FIGHT unlike some countries in the Middle East - these people are descendants of the ancient Mesopotamia after all.
I responded to OP in the context of NATO and what it can do. He continues to speak with ignorance as usual.
Russian army is very large and well-equipped to fight a regional power but NATO is the reason WHY Russia has FAILED to take over entire Ukraine and some of its gains were reversed by now. I can explain this in detail if necessary. NATO has leveled the playing field for Ukraine in this war. This is not to take away from Ukrainian fighting spirit. It is the combination of man and machine in the end.
If they can hit Rayazan, then surely they can take out power to Moscow, see how the russians like winter without power in their major cities, a lot colder than Kiev

that is some very precise work!!! must be guided munitions of some type.
these are Ukrainian made drones, not USA ones. While sophisticated western weapons make the headlines, the vast majority of weapons on both sides are old soviet stocks. During the time of the Soviet Union all the best weaponry came from Ukraine
Reading RT is like asking a convicted criminal his side of the story. I'm innocent your honer, I tell you i'm innocent.

Saudi air defenses are composed of point defense systems in large part with radar coverage gaps that could be exploited by Houthi and Iran from time-to-time. Check following posts one by one for perspective:
Pakistan officially inducts HQ 9 Air Defence system
Correct - not only was it there a while ago but the Indians too were aware of it being there after a few months in country. Currently Ravi Nirudkar at Raytheon is making his pitch for a large AARGM purchase by India but is being countered by DRDO with Rudram. Hopefully the DRDO guys prevail so...

How Many Nuclear Missiles Can the United States Intercept?
Mach 24 when outside the atmosphere. Within the atmosphere the warheads are drastically slower. Interception of ballistic missiles is possible, basically at all stages, depending on the location of launch. Decoy detecting methods exist. Arrow 3, Arrow 4, GMD and other laser/satellite based...

Why Pakistan unable to develop its own Air defence System
They made a difference in the Battle of Kiev. SAM based AD are not effective against modern drones and missiles. This has been proven booth in the ME and Ukraine. Considering the costs of modern SAM AD systems.....are they worth it?? Not really, IMO. Resources are better spent on offensive...

Saudi air defenses have blunted numerous attacks as well so credit where due. It is not easy to intercept ballistic missiles.

INS Hanit does not have AEGIS and it is much less of a warship in comparison to sophisticated destroyers out there.
Compare with performance of USS Mason in 2016:
USS Mason encountered and neutralized 7 anti-ship cruise missiles in Yemeni waters in 2016
"On three separate dates in October 2016, the USS Mason (DDG-87), USS Nitze (DDG-94), USS San Antonio (LPD-17), and USS Ponce (AFSB-15) came under attack while operating off the western coast of Yemen, near the Strait of Bab-el-Mandeb. While all four ships were not always operating together as a...

An Arleigh Burke class warship is like a moving fortress in the seas. But very expensive as well.

Pakistani air defenses are good enough for stopping Indian airborne threats but US is another ballgame in comparison. US has vastly superior technology and have developed much better battle tactics than Indians courtesy of its vast battlefield experience. I will not fault Pakistan in this matter. Mine is a country of limited resources and I have realistic expectations from it.

Even if Iraq had some big ticket items such as S-300 systems and a functioning Air Force, these would have made no difference whatsoever when up against a war-machine like NATO. The REAL FIGHT was on the ground and mostly around (and inside) Iraqi cities.
Russia-Ukraine War - News and Developments
In my view the objective of this conflict is to overthrow Putin and install a puppet government in Russia. Someone like Yeltzin. A side benefit is that Germany and Europe come under Anglo-Zionist control, which has already happened. If Putin is overthrown I will accept that Russia lost. If he...

US-led forces suffered significant set backs in the Battle of Nasiriyah in fact - the FIRST MAJOR BATTLE of war in Iraq on the ground. Even though thousands of Iraqi combatants lost their lives in this battle and US-led forces were able to secure Nasiriyah, Iraqi General Raad Hamdani credited battle in this city for motivating Iraqi forces to FIGHT in other locations by and large, in a series of his interviews.
YOU cannot take over a country by force and execute REGIME CHANGE there until or unless YOU can secure its cities. Your forces must be well-equipped for URBAN WARFARE therefore.
It is the main battle tank (MBT) that provides the required level of MOBILITY and PUNCH to move forward and secure "areas of interest." American and British MBTs are not only mobile but pack a significant PUNCH and are SURVIVABLE. American and British MBTs could take multiple hits and survive in Iraqi urban spaces.
The problem of Russian MBTs is that they are NOT survivable. Similarly, Ukrainian MBTs are NOT survivable. This shortcoming has FORCED both camps to OVER RELY upon artillery pieces to secure "areas of interest." This is why either camp is SLOW to make advances.
Russian forces have FAILED to take over much of Ukraine and execute REGIME CHANGE there because its MBTs are NOT survivable. Russian battle tactics are also less developed than that of NATO.

That's because either that or their commissar would put them on the frontline.........
Who wants to be cannon fodder for Russia anyway, much rather stay behind being a keyboard warrior than a real one......

Inappropriate Language
The West voted no or abstained against a resolution that was targetting freedom of speech. Nazism is handled in courts.
We are waiting for the Russian cockroaches to be prosecuted for their war crimes.
It is the duty of the Russian Federation to prosecute, and they are failing with this as with everything else in the war.

Russia could throw the entire sink in my opinion due to Ukraine's drone attacks on Russia.. This is like puking the Bear a bit to far.. This could occur very soon.
This is escalating to be fairly honest even more then I realized previously. The Russians will come down hard and might expand into NATO countries neighbouring Russia
