It seems that the Ukranian strategy of baiting out the responsive back-line troops and then hitting them with advanced and precise artillery and with drones is working.
High reported Russian losses of artillery systems in these last weeks, and the deployment of KA-52's to compensate is interesting.
Hopefully what will happen is that Ukraine will continue this way, with the minimum necessary losses during probing attacks, until a weakness in the back line is found. A force concentration attack backed by heavy drone and artillery strikes might then prevent the Russians from patching a hole in the line.
We will have to be patient while they dig a hole through the substantial enemy defenses, but I believe that once they do, we will see some impressive performance from Ukraine.
