What's the big story? In breaking news, a Wall Street Journal reporter has been arrested in Russia on charges of espionage. The United States citizen is facing 10 to 20 years in a penal colony.

The second story? We received a lot of good intel on the war map in the Bakhmut, Avdiivka, and Marinka Operational Areas and made changes.

Bonus story? The big wind, wet, snow event? It's on, and snow is already falling across eastern Ukraine.

Is there a glossary of terms used in the podcast and reports? What always confuses me is translations of names of military units? Like, g-LOC, company or brigade. I also still have no idea what translation of "storm trooper" is to my native Ukrainian/Russian. Preferably with short descriptions. Like: Company - military unit size of 100-200 people - рота rho-tha or сотня - soth-nya

Ah, that makes sense. If they could operate out of a nearby country that has the infrastructure in place to support f-16s and they just provided missile defense and stayed far away from the front then they could be useful. Seems like an enormous amount of money and resources just for missile defense when it would be far cheaper and likely more effective to provide Ukraine with proper ground missile defense systems as we promised.

Ukraine asks for F16s capable of air-to-air combat only to protect their homes from missiles and drones. As part of air defence, not to dogfight, not for use near front lines.

Boy, I get where Austin is coming from on the f-16s. I am baffled why Ukraine would want them. They are designed to dogfight with other aircraft. There are versions which can do ground attack but it's not their "thing". It doesn't seem ukraine needs a dogfighter. They are not the least bit stealthy. They look like the size of an Ikea warehouse on radar. Whatever you want to say about the quality of russian equipment, their radar and surface to air missiles are really, really good. F-16s wouldn't stand a chance. The only reason they were effective in Iraq is they weren't brought in until stealthy f-117s and Wild Weasel squadrons cleared out all the SAMs. They are INCREDIBLY complex too. They require a vast network of experts for each subsystem. It's not like russian planes where a couple of guys can change out an engine with a wrench and screwdriver. The runways have to be pristine as well. That huge inlet on the bottom of the plane acts exactly as a vacuum cleaner. EVERYTHING on that runway is going into the engine and anything bigger than a one inch piece of rubber from a tire is going to destroy the engine. Realistically they would have to operate out of a nearby European country and I don't think any of them would allow ukraine to fly strike sorties out of their country. Dont get me wrong, i love the f-16 but it seems like in this situation they would be useless and an enormous waste of resources and they would be wiped out immediately anyway. Maybe they think getting f-16s would open the door to getting more useful aircraft like the stealthy f-35?? I don't get it otherwise. Much better to use the resources on long range rockets and missiles which would have an immediate and huge impact. It is ludicrous that NATO hasn't provided long range missiles already
