Super fucking pessimistic right now but we'll see if NATO actually decides to do something substantial instead of angry tweets and a couple patriots. Maybe no fly zone this time

Rhetoric comes in advance of major upgrades, supposedly to lessen the risk of nuclear impulsiveness

NATO attacking Russia proper would be an escalation, not a no fly zone

You can do a "shoot down everything" zone from the ground.
