Overselling Russian military capabilities is a form of defeatism. If Russia could attack Western supplies, they would. Ukraine needs those supploes to continue fighting. In Ukraine they are a legitimate target, and would be far less likely to provoke a dangerous widening of the war that Russia can ill afford. They have more capability to attack convoys in Ukraine than they do in Poland or Slovakia....so if they aren't doing it, it isn't very unclear why. It's because they don't have the capability to do it effectively, and would have less capability to do it outside of Ukraine.
Shooting some missiles at Poland that Patriots can take out is a pretty dumb and bad use of your limited missile stock, and I think very unlikely to scare Poland off, much more likely that Poland would want retribution than be deterred.

Russia can't stop this sort of arms supply either by shooting down a US C17. Too bad Russia made so many decent cheap tanks.

US sending newly developed drones apparently to Ukraine. Interesting mix of the bleeding edge and 50 year old Soviet technology on the battlefield

Hmmmmmmmmmm. Perhaps an accident. Perhaps they just wanted to destroy this plant very quickly so they could build a newer, better one.
