The article was about Abrams tanks vs. Russian tanks.
The paradigm shift is because of the use of drones to keep the tanks away from the front of the battlefield.
Times change. Warfare changes.
B.S. There has been no “paradigm shift.”
The entire justification of sending Abrams to the Ukraine was centered in the false notion that these tanks would overpower Russian armor and breakthrough Russian defenses. This ignores the reality that the Ukrainian military always lacked the logistical capability and training to use the tanks in their intended role as an armored spear in highly maneuverable warfare.
It further ignores the reality that this has been a war of position and attrition. All the firepower and maneuverability of a technological marvel like the Abrams tank are rendered useless if used as little more than a static pillbox.

Correct.
This is about Ukraine, the lies we’ve been told, the lack of a coherent plan, and the failure of decisions that were made along the way.
