    Agreed, I think for now Ukraine should scale back to purely defensive operations only attacking behind enemy lines with long range weapons such as these. Much cheaper in terms of weapons/lives, and as long as Russia works the meat grinder, the war will lose popularity in Russia. No nation can keep up an offensive war forever. It will be a long haul, but one that I think Ukraine can win.
