The Russian Aerospace Forces (VKS) launched a group strike on the energy infrastructure and gas production facilities of Ukraine. This was reported on March 31 by the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.
The strike was carried out by high-precision long-range air-launched weapons and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
"As a result of the strike, the work of defense industry enterprises for the manufacture and repair of weapons, military equipment and ammunition was disrupted," the ministry said.

I feel like shorting a nations currency is a rather evil move.
Has Russia bombed all of Ukraine's power sources? Will they be making sure that power lines from the neighboring countries don't feed power in anyways?

It’d be pretty hilarious if it turned out that the Czech had made the whole thing up and just used the cash for some highways or something.
Even better if they just started pretending that they have no idea what the Estonians and Fjeld-Niggers are talking about: “Shells? Money? So you’re saying our government just happened to find some shells laying around somewhere? That sounds like Russian disinformation, not gonna lie!”

Maybe highways of coke. My hope for the funniest version is Ukies selling shells back, then waiting for it to be given to them again, then sell it again.. that's how you can buy a million shells.

I can't attest to the state of Ukraine's highways, maybe they're to worn out, maybe not. I know they have roads, and other militaries seem to believe using highways as runways is a good idea. As to the marston matting, you really don't need "highly trained" personal to put down steel mats.
Like I get ukies aren't the best people in the world, but I bet they can sweep a highway/road clean without much issue.
Here's a vid of the Norwegians doing it with F-35s in Finland. At the end of the video they say F-16s can land on roads.
As to the Russian response I don't know or really care. The question was if it could be done or not. I think it can. Biden and Nuland and everyone else have made it clear that this is a war to the last Ukrainian. When your government doesn't care about losses, who cares that the enemy gets 9 out of 10 of your makeshift airfields before they can be used. Or the aircraft promptly get shot down after getting near the front lines. This is Germany circa 1945 for all intents and purposes, as over used as the analogue is. Nazis were still flying planes even up to the surrender. Did it make a difference no, did they do it, yes.

F16's were designed with the ability to land on roads. In an emergency. The only way they're taking off again is in a perfectly curated test environment. Maybe once. Certainly not in wartime conditions. In order to be refueled, rearmed and whatever maintenance has to be done between flights is with all that support infrastructure being planned, pre-staged and ready. Then there's no point calling it a road, it's an easily-targeted airfield.

The issue isn’t really whether it can land or take off from roads.
A 747 could land on a highway presuming its big enough. That doesn’t mean you can have an airport on an interstate because of all the other issues.
Planes, especially F16s or F35s need maintenance. Climate controlled hangars. Fuel. Weapons.
Theoretically you can maybe base it on a highway one time, but it won’t be long before the khinzals start flying and/or the lack of proper maintenance fucks it all up.
Exactly. They can land on a highway once.
Then a big ass truck needs to show up and wheel it off to an airbase for maintenance, refueling, rearming and all that.
This isn’t 1945 where you can base some ME109s on a highway, and hide some fuel drums and MG ammo under an overpass.

Ukraine has unleashed their highly-trained lesbian killers. Be afraid, vatniks, be very afraid.

I wouldn't scoff at their combat readiness, I'm sure they beat each other to near death every night to maintain their edge.

New navy seal-style copypasta: "If I tell you the number of my confirmed kills, I'm putting a bounty on my head."
Also lol: "Please withhold my surname for the safety of my family ... in the article you're publishing that includes a well-lit, high-resolution front-facing photograph of my face!"

The use of code names by the Ukrainians is so gay.

So are these journalists just bored, or do they think this'll change anything? The entire thing about snipers is they pick off a few targets then GTFO, or they die messily to artillery. They're a nightmare on the individual level, but a mild annoyance at the higher level of strategy.
And I don't even know what a "Top Machine-Gunner" is, a successful machine gunner just puts heads down for a while so the maneuver elements can do something about the enemy - Any kills are lucky at best, and if your MG is holding fire to try and guarantee a kill, they're not doing their job.
If you're gonna write a fluff piece about some soldiers, at least try and understand the effect and impact of what they're actually doing. Propping a military up with heroes and protagonists is a recipe for demoralization when it turns out bullets don't respect the LARP.

Based on external characteristics, there's a very real chance they're TF2 shippers.

Look at the size of that whale.
Y'all are greatly over estimating the amount of care these aircraft need, and its not like the aircraft can't be flown back to Poland if they need serious work.
