Kings and Generals animated historical documentary series on Modern Warfare continues with a video explaining how the War in Ukraine changed the power balance in the Black sea, as we discuss the strength of various countries and why Russia is losing the upper hand. Previously in our series on the RUssian invasion of Ukraine, we covered the aftermath of the first phase of the Russian Invasion of Ukraine in 2022 ( • How Ukraine Won the Fi... ). We talked about the build-up to the new stage of the Russo-Ukrainian War, how Putin's unprovoked invasion of Ukraine continued, and covered events between February 24th and April 7th, as we saw how Ukraine managed to win the first phase of the war. This set up the second phase of the war - battle of Donbas.

The apparent use of small ship drones that has the capabilities to cripple if not destroy a larger opponent really shows a trend where the idea of building anything large, like heavy tanks, heavy fighters or capital ships, is becoming more obsolete as smaller vessels and military vehicles now have the capability to be as deadly as their larger opponents with the added bonus of being easier, cheaper, and quicker to manufacture. This means that the next wars will involve swarming tactics of smaller but numerically superior force that individually already are as capable as any larger counterparts , to overwhelm the opponents will arguably become the norm in wars of the 21st centuary.

Fun fact: The destroyer firing it's main gun in the thumbnail is actually the Chinese People’s Liberation Army Navy Type 052 guided missile destroyer, CNS Harbin-112. The photo is from 2014 when she took part in joint exercises with the Russians in the East China Sea. In the full image, I'm fairly sure that the Ningbo-139 can be immediately seen behind her, alongside what looks like a couple of Russian Udaloys and a Chinese Type 054 of indeterminate designation in the distance. It's funny, I'm currently writing a short paper for university on the Senkaku/Diaoyu Island dispute, and used this exact same image to illustrate a point of analysis about Sino-Russian cooperation and naval power in the immediate neighbourhood to the islands. A cool coincidence, and interesting to see this particular image used in relation to the Black Sea.

Once they are finished with the Pacific, they should make a similarly detailed series specifically on the Eastern Front. The scale of that war was massive, and a lot of people only know the big battles/operations like Stalingrad, Kursk, or Bagration. As another commenter mentioned, the only other channel I can think of that covers it in detail is World War Two.

You're not wrong. But then again, the USA couldn't even "win" in Vietnam, Korea or Afghanistan. And to be fair, they mopped up in Europe after the Soviets, British, Poles, Dutch, Belgian, Greeks and French took the brunt of the German and Italian (LOL) blows. They performed much more admirably (let's not talk about the 2 bombs) in the Pacific theater of war, against an enemy which had attacked them. Which leads me to conclude that the US would also find it extremely difficult to invade mainland Russia, not even taking into consideration the possible ramifications (big boom) of doing so. So, maybe it's down to public support for war and good leadership, and not perceiving yourself as invincible. Not discounting technical innovations (a bow will always lose to a drone, no matter who is performing the speeches), war is more than big guns. Russia is fighting an offensive war on someone else's land. Ukraine has the monetary backing of the US and EU. Morale will always be an issue for the Russians. "We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we will fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender" - Winston Churchill.

A bit of research may have an answer as to the Kilo subs apparent non-involvement. The Kilos can only fire the cruise missiles in two of their torpedo tubes, meaning either a single wolf-pack style attack, or several more easily defended solo attacks. Loading the cruise missiles are also a very time-intensive operation, reducing the sub's patrol time. Finally the Kalibre missiles are also being used by land and air units (with required alteration), stretching a reportedly already limited supply. I could see the Kilos being used for a precision strike at a critical target, but not for the current mass-wave attacks currently employed.

The Montreux Convention is a testament to the genius of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, founder of the Republic of Turkiye as a diplomat, statesman, strategist and politician. With one masterful move, he not only brokered a peaceful solution acceptable to all parties involved who wouldn't bat an eye before devouring each other, solved a huge strategic problem for a sovereign Turkiye that is the control of the two straights, ensured Turkiye's ability to dictate some terms in coming wars, both global and regional, gave Turkiye the ability to negotiate better terms with foreign powers, made Turkiye an indispensable part of NATO, also providing Turkiye with the means to resist Russian influence during the Cold War, etc. etc... Situation in the field today would be much different than it is, if not for the power and efforts of Turkiye, both military and diplomatic.

I read in the news yesterday that Russia has unveiled their '3m22 Zircon' hypersonic missiles, with a range of 1.5k km. Do you think it'll impact the balance of power in the Black Sea? Edit: 1.5km => 1.5k km, damnyouautocorrect! :D

@KingsandGenerals Жыл бұрын

I have seen a few takes on this, but, ultimately these things always come down to production/usage rates. Russia is having hard time keeping its missile stocks as is, adding another variant is not going to help here. In case of a war in Ukraine, Tsirkon and Onyx are more or less the same.

@jlvfr Жыл бұрын

If you thinking "anti-ship operations", not really. You still have to target them, which means flying around finding targets to mark & designate; these exposes such flyers to retaliation. If you don't do this, then the ships will have to sail around finding on their own, with the visual/radar horizon at sea level as their max target (say 30km, considering mast height). And the russian ability to provide air support is very limited. What they can do, if firing at fixed targets on land, is provide a firing solution from another direction other direct than Russia, by, for example, saying 100km into the sea then firing. This complicates Ukraine air defence coverage, by forcing them to look at another direction.

@perasperaadastra401 Жыл бұрын

Russia is not able to produce any of the missiles in large quantities anymore. Perhaps, they might be able to produce 6-10 cyrkons per month with reduced abilities but I don’t think so.

@Retrosicotte Жыл бұрын

Not even slightly. What are they even to target? The whole point is it's too small for Russia to operate without being in range of a coast, which they have no real ability to protect themselves from.

Good news is that Romania would have 2 new submarines from France and 4 new corvets, plus that two of the frigates would be modernizated by Naval Group. This would in next years but is great that would because we cant know sure how the ukrainian -russian war would last and develope .
