Of course birth rates fall during wartime. And they usually also explode afterwards, at least in the short term - hence the baby boom in the U.S. and Europe post-WW2. Having kids puts you in a precarious position -logistically, financially, emotionally. It's natural for people to defer this during an existential war of survival.

And even the pre-war state of ukraine, with it's terrible neighbor's corrosive meddling and the apparently well-foudned fear of an eventual invasion hanging over people's heads would create uncertainty that would make you think twice about having kids.

The template for a post-war Ukraine is the same as Poland, Romania & Czechoslovakia's. Namely - integration to the EU and NATO produce sovriegn stability and economic growth. But - as history also shows - economic growth leads to falling long term birth rates, everywhere it's happened. Lots of factors there - economic activity makes people chase opportunity, women have more control of working and reproductive rights, you don't need to have 12 children, expecting half of them to survive, to pick potatoes on the farm.

Point being - this war is like a national divorce. One that has been 1,000 abusive years in coming. Ukraine is not going to be the same as it was before. And neither is Russia. But that's okay. If Ukraine can survive the war, integrate with the EU and NATO, and Russia fucks off into it's murky, corrupt, increasingly irrelenvant future too focused on it's own internal squabbles to spend resources murdering it's neighbours - then Ukraine's new form will, like all the former Eastern bloc colonies, be prosperous and free.

The airships, which can stay aloft for up to 12 hours, offer an affordable alternative to drones and manned aircraft, especially in areas with challenging terrain or where radar detection is difficult.

Kelluu’s airships, praised for their maneuverability, endurance, and resistance to jamming, were selected for NATO’s “Rapid Adoption Service” program, making it the first company to be chosen for national trials under this initiative.

Kelluu’s team is based in Joensuu, a small Finnish city just west of Russian Karelia, where its location offers a unique advantage. This proximity to the border means the company faces frequent electronic interference, or what they call “free interference,” from both Russia and Finland.

To overcome this, Kelluu’s airships are designed to resist jamming and spoofing, ensuring their reliability even in contested environments.

“While other firms may have to pay for tests, Kelluu’s airships must be resistant to electronic warfare to work in the first place,” Niko Kuikka, the startup’s head of engineering told Business Insider.

This is a good video on the M1117 being supplied to Ukraine, a somewhat drab looking armored vehicle that is easy to overlook given how it looks pretty much like any other wheeled armored vehicle, but there is more than meets the eye here. This is one of the finest armored vehicles ever made, Greece and the US each field more than 1000 of these vehicles in mostly military security contexts (i.e. units patrolling large areas and protecting bases and infrastructure).

I suspect the M1117 is nearly the ideal vehicle Ukraine needs at this moment other than Patria type traditional APCs. The M1117 was overshadowed by the rapid development of MRAPs in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars in the 2000s (The MaxxPro being one such vehicle that ended up being extremely effective in Ukraine), but not because the M1117 was ineffective, rather a large reason the vehicle did not play a more prominent role earlier in the conflicts as a mine resistant more survivable replacement to using Humvees on patrol was because Hurricane Katrina heavily damaged the production plant in 2005. However as production ramped up late in the 2000s the M1117 quietly became a vital armored vehicle in a variety of mission contexts.

Note how the 13,000kg/29,560 lb vehicle is so easy to drive the armor crewman just straight up tells the youtube video maker to jump in and drive the thing lol. I honestly think these might end up being one of the most successful, future proof armored vehicle designs, period not because of how cutting edge advanced these are or because they are unstoppable armored assault vehicles but because of how much clarity in design the M1117 has for what the actual threats and labors of extended conflicts end up being. This isn't an F35 fighter jet, there is a damn crank for the turret on the M1117 with bearings painted on the hull for old school fire support, it was designed by people that genuinely expected it to be shoved into a corner and neglected for decades and then pulled out in a panic and have it still function. This is the properly armored wheeled Russian scout vehicle that Russia never managed to actually make. I am glad Ukraine is getting these and I hope they get many many many many more!

The US Army Contracting Command in Detroit announced plans for a three-year sole-source contract with Textron to manufacture 65 MSFVs, along with a full year’s supply of spare parts.

The deal will be funded through the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (USAI), a program designed to equip Kyiv with advanced weaponry, training, and support.

The Mobile Strike Force Vehicle (MSFV) is an advanced variant of the M1117 Armored Security Vehicle (ASV), originally developed by Textron Marine & Land Systems in cooperation with the US Army for the Afghan National Army. Its design includes a hull extended by approximately 0.6 meters, enlarged wheels with revised axles, and a higher ground clearance, significantly improving survivability against mines and improvised explosive devices while retaining the original V-shaped underbody. Production of the MSFV began in 2011, when the first 18 units were delivered to Afghanistan, and by 2013 orders had reached a cumulative total of 634 vehicles, including full-rate production lots and option awards. Components for the Afghan program were sourced in part from seven Canadian suppliers, with integration completed at Textron’s facilities in Louisiana. Deliveries concluded in 2014, but production is now set to restart for Ukraine after being dormant since 2019.

U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff met Russian President Vladimir Putin on Dec. 2 as part of the U.S. effort to advance negotiations aimed at ending Russia's war in Ukraine.

Top Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov, who took part in the talks, called the meeting "very useful, constructive, and highly substantive" but said no concrete deal was agreed upon — a statement suggesting that a final peace agreement remains far off.

Russia only negotiates when it feels it can longer get what it wants by force. It then switches to maximalist, zero-compromise give-me-something style demands to the point of absurdity.

But what should Ukraine do? The Russians and their U.S. proxies are pushing for concessions, with zero hard security guarantees. The 'realities on the ground', as they're very fond of saying, aren't such that Ukraine should be happy to only lose 20% of it's territory, including all the human, resource and industrial potential that that includes. U.S. material support is barely relevant to Ukraine's ability to resist the 2025 version of the Russian Terrorist Army strategically.

Indeed, what should they do? U.S. leverage is less than Trump would have you believe. Russian capabilities are not getting markedly better by any measure. Their small, slow advances are not adding up to strategic defeat for Ukraine. Ukraine has many more 'cards to play' before they, and Europe, should accept that this is the best time to...well....surrender, and let the russian re-tool for an obvious Next Glorious Invasion in a couple years.

Maybe the wisest plan is to keep fighting. Keep bleeding the Russians until they howl, and their terms get better. They aren't reasonable actors - they're trying to eradicate Ukraine completely. Politicallly, militarily, culturally. And that's not old news - Putin said this last week. Fight until the last Ukrainian is dead. How can you even consider negotiating with such clearly genocidal hatred.

See Flight Global for interview

The aircraft have 85% commonality, offering simplified sustainment across a wide portfolio of rotary-wing missions. The two H-1 aircraft are primarily operated by the US Marine Corps (USMC), which practises an expeditionary fighting style Schloesser says fits well with the wartime demands and abilities of the Ukrainian army.

Schloesser says the UH-1Y and AH-1Z feature sophisticated countermeasures that would help them survive modern threats, though he declines to elaborate, citing security classification.

From an operational perspective, the USMC has already demonstrated the ability of the AH-1Z to perform air-to-air and counter-UAS missions in test environments.

A cost-effective means for both those functions is in high demand by the Ukrainians, as Russia overpowers conventional air defences with massed wave bombardments of low-cost, one-way drones.

https://www.flightglobal.com/helicopters/how-the-ukraine-war-has-and-has-not-changed-the-helicopters-role-in-combat/165492.article

Come on! Dooo it already!!! Give Ukraine the AH-1Z and UH-1Y NOW! These could save so many lives simply being used as air defense assets alone not to mention all the other uses they have including peacetime search and rescue contexts. The biggest problem with the AH-1Z for Ukraine would be that there isn't a lot of space to paint confirmed shahed kills on the fuselage and crews would quickly run out unless they painted veryyy tiny.

These are the most advanced, battle tested helicopters on earth next to the AH-64 and the AH-1Z has been upgraded over the years to expand capability to replicate the design successes of the AH-64 (vice versa I imagine too) so in many ways both helicopters are peers in indirect conversation rather than truly entirely unrelated helicopter programs.

Someone could easily get Trump to sign off on the "silly vietnam era obsolete helicopters" so he can get a lazy PR boost that he and his advisors likely won't think much of compared to drones or patriot missiles and we all can loudly proclaim what a silly outdated thing for Trump to do! Then Russia can get smashed in the face...

A crucial advantage the AH-1Z and UH-1Y have is they are designed to be operated and supported in the field. Fighter jets by comparison are confined to networks of large, static fragile and impossible to hide infrastructure/airbases in order to operate. If as a Ukrainian you want an air defense/precision close air support and long range strike platform that will survive a mass coordinated strike and be able to keep operating in an ad-hoc emergency defense utilizing radar to assist friendly forces and rearming literally in the backyards of houses to takeoff and keep fighting... this is it. There is no more deadly effective choice here than the AH-1Z and UH-1Y especially given bell-textron doesn't have a waiting list and could focus immediately on supplying them to Ukraine.

see Kyiv24 news report segment for more details and test range footage of the AH-1Z and UH-1Y
