RU is gaining initiative since January. Most useful thing that UA got from NATO for now is military intelligence that has scale which maybe only China can match. This is available for UA since beginning. We still do not know how effective new weapons are going to be. Maybe that is why the volume of western tanks is so low. I don't think there will be Nukes.

I've read (months ago) that the intelligence Ukraine is getting from US is relatively limited and already filtered out / processed. It's probably one of the tools US is using to "steer" the war.
- rhaway84773 4y agoThe volume of Western tanks is low because the West has been hesitant to send any modern weaponry to Ukraine. What they’ve basically sent so far, with which Ukraine has demolished the Russian weaponry, is old, almost decommissioned weapons they weren’t using anyways.
- glogla 4y agoWe have seen some old equipment, but we have also seen HIMARS, Starstreak, NASAMS, Patriot, HARM, M777 (with Excalibur smart rounds), several types of drones, and bunch more stuff that is pretty much state of the art. Now there's 300 Bradleys and bunch of tanks on the way. Yes, no F-35, which would be fun to watch, but I understand NATO has to keep some aces up its sleeves. ETA: there were also some ... mysterious happenings. Like we still don't know exactly what blew up the airbase on Crimea. We don't know exactly what blew up the bridge. We don't know exactly what is hitting airbases many hundreds of kilometers behind the borders - some of them further from Ukraine than Moscow.
