Exactly the sort of thing you do to prove you destroyed a Patriot Battery or whatever else the Orcs are claiming

That's some Darth Vader level evil.  Didn't the same exact thing happen in Rogue One?

I don't understand what I am reading there, but it has a "Death of Stalin" ring to it, like Steve Buscemi is going to sort out Beria once and for all.

Not arrested:  the designers of the Patriot system and its multiple system upgrades.   Also not arrested, the designers of the NLAW/Javelin, HIMARS, Storm Shadow and the AGM-88.

U.S. officials are planning for the growing possibility that the Russia-Ukraine war will turn into a frozen conflict that lasts many years — perhaps decades — and joins the ranks of similar lengthy face-offs in the Korean peninsula, South Asia and beyond.

The amount of equipment sent directly from existing U.S. stockpiles has steadily diminished over the past few months, while the packages of aid used to purchase new weapons from industry — a process that can take months to years — has increased.

Quote

 Biden administration recently transferred $300 million worth of weapons from existing U.S. stockpiles, primarily ammunition, while providing $1.2 billion to purchase more complex weapons, such as air defenses, from industry.

So billions and billions of tax payer money for Ukraine for decades then?
