In general terms, I realized the U.S. was providing intelligence & communications to the Ukrainian Army. But, I still am surprised and amazed at the scope and detail.
Though not in the article, I've seen commentary & analysis claiming the intelligence is not just operational intelligence, but tactical intelligence to the point of real-time pinpointing of targets at the lowest engagement levels! Wow!

I'll say it again:
"Boys & Girls, we have us a proxy war!"
I'll also add:
"I think Putin may have bitten off more than he could chew"
