Related to what Rae said, I don't think Ukraine or the West is going to accept territorial loss.
I am thinking this is going to move into a new phase where Ukraine is going to need to dislodge entrenched Russian (I almost typed Soviet lol) troops whom have their backs against their own border.
I can't really see how the West can give Ukraine an advantage tech wise. They will need Artillery and Airstrikes to dislodge them. Our current assistance IMO mostly helps on easy strikes against moving targets and logistical elements out alone.
What are we looking at? Guided shells? Counter battery radars? Anything like the Dome system would be vulnerable to HARM type weapons correct? Drones would be useful, but will have serious attrition rates and would probably be vulnerable to jamming (we wont share our most jam resistant ones).
What would you give the Ukrainian in this new phase?
