Why China will be watching as Ukraine’s marines attack Russian troops | Defence in Depth

- Marine units, amphibious forces, naval infantry, however you want to describe them, offer military commanders a niche capability: the ability to approach the often overlooked flanks of rivers and the sea and launch an assault. Or, threaten to launch an assault.
Projecting military force from the sea onto the land has always been a tricky business. But with 40 per cent of the world’s population and many economic and political centres of power located within 60 miles of the coast, dominating the littoral zone - the bit of the earth where rivers and seas meet land, plus a bit extra on either side - has always been a critical task for the military.
The problem is that land-based systems to target troop ships and aircraft carriers now have ranges of hundreds of miles, all part of what the military calls an Anti-Access Area Denial, or A2AD, bubble. How to safely penetrate and operate inside an enemy’s A2AD bubble is evident today in Ukraine and is focussing minds thinking about a potential conflict over Taiwan in the near tomorrow.

Ukraine need landing tank ships
Will be? They're a bit late to the fight.
At 9:41 is when the video went super cringe.
U.S. Marine Veteran here we are all on the same side Royals.
@@soton5teveUkraine needs to negotiate for peace. Ukraine needs to stop it's stupidity. Ukraine needs to stop fighting this proxy war for the Anglo-saxon Empire. Win or lose, Ukraine itself is the target for destruction. It is unbelievable that any country cannot figure this out after the Anglo-saxon Empire has pillaged the world for 500 years. Some people and countries are really stupid.
Give this man his own channel
Hey, today's episode proved that he can't do it alone 😊
@@tinayang3845 I doubt he does anything alone. All scripted and looking for a mouth piece. Nothing is off the cuff.
Who says he wants to do this stuff on his own?
@@andyrobinson2653I smell jealousy.
@@georgemcbride7857 Jealousy that he can compose himself with a script? Not really. There is nothing here to be honest. Just history being used to inform the present for an agenda. There is always a bias.
No apology is necessary to this USMC veteran (1974 - 80). VERY insightful presentation. Loved the tutorial on RM slang. I will be employing it in the future. Starting now...Hoofing video , Dominic Nicholls!

Another great insight into all things military and much appreciated. Following your daily and weekly updates increases my understanding of what is happening, not only in Ukraine in real time, but in the minds of other potentially restless despots and dictators. Thanks Dom.

Too bad that he’s delusional.
Just brilliant as usual. This, and other similar standard reporting and analysis from The Telegraph, puts it at the top of the journalistic tree. Very much appreciated.
Agreed if only they could keep this standard for domestic journalism.
whats your opinion on the 400k ukrainian dead?
Marines as explained by Army. Love it.
Awesome content guys!
Love the UK! We got your back, veteran US Navy
Ukrainians are very grateful to the people of Great Britain for supporting our country in the fight against the russian invaders
Most British people are wholly indifferent. Others see through the Establishment narrative of Goodies v Baddies.

Francis acting as pissed is pretty amusing :D
While I was serving in USMC, got to interact with some Royal Marines. Back then (1980s), they regarded us as a completely different breed of cat. They were strictly light infantry, but were impressed that US Marines were first trained as light infantry, but then also as something else. Specifically, I recall one Royal Marine explaining how impressed he was that one of his USMC colleagues was a helicopter mechanic.
I guess the British learned all their amphibious landing doctrine doing years of Pacific island hopping fighting the Japanese empire in WW2?
@@heyynow6176 , at that time, they didn’t seem to regard landing tanks and artillery as their mission. More traditional Soldiers of the Sea - light infantry equipped for Special Ops. But that was decades ago and my memory is far from perfect …
@@heyynow6176
Try going back about 900 years!
@@zen4menExactly. Yet again America thinks it invented something the British have been doing for five hundred years before the US was even spawned 😂😂😂
Too bad the RM's wrapped it up back when they were trying to deny us liberty.
I love these Defence in Depth video's, thanks!
Excellent content. A different perspective I didn't know about.
Semper Fi. Marines doing what Marines are supposed to do! Chuck Fina, Ruck Fussia - Slava Ukraini.
Thanks i missed these.
Awesome. Have not missed one "UKRAINE - The latest". Awesome humor as well ;-)
very interesting show. thanks.
nice video, cant wait for the podcast this night
Insightful as ever Dom, thankyou
Thanks Dom !
INCREDIBLY INFORMATIVE.
Thanks for the spot on
I hope the Ukrainian troops will train the British. War is changing fast and they know more
After the Ukrainians win the war.
Questions on the validity of the amphibious assault as a concept have abounded for at least the last century. And while it's true that new technologies may make the concept harder to carry out, I suspect that the concept will never not hold validity as a military option.
Dom is a hoofing journo 👍🏼
Well done. Thoroughly enjoyed this informative yet entertaining presentation.
I really enjoy these segments. Well done.
Also,lets not forget the RM's long time partner in Amphibious ops since the early 70's ,the Netherland's Korps Mariniers.'Quo Patet Orbis'
Enjoying your work Dom
Very much appreciate this update on seaborne landings. With maritime drone technology progressing in leaps and bounds, I wonder if it has been considered whereby a hi-speed drone with remote controlled machine guns have been considered to secure the beachhead ?
The USN already has fully automated ships at sea that are able to defend themselves. I would have to imagine unmanned boats will be a part of any major future beachhead assaults.
I've been wondering if Ukraine's "sea baby" maritime drones might be changed to become the launcher of a crude short range missile,
That way, Putin's warships would still be vulnerable in port, even if there were barriers to stop the current sea babies.

It’s a sci fi idea that is no doubt close! Remember the sentry guns in the Aliens movie?
Can imagine recoil and targeting on an unstable platform will be overcome. But at speed can imagine it’s further off.
Hellfires or similar or smaller maybe.
But those fpv uavs are already amazing. Taking those forward to new levels would be amazing too.
Aw yiss, the audio got fixed, I noticed! Earlier episodes had Dom's speech weirdly panned to either left or right, now it's well balanced.
Thanks to the audio editor!! Much more enjoyable to listen to this great content now.
Once again great job from Montana from a old pressman. Keep it up.
Great video, very informative.
Hands down best commentary on the War. Well done Dom and team.

Great content as usual. Loved the cameo, too!
I subscribed to the Telegraph last year after having Ukraine: The Latest suggested to me by TH-cam, it was and remains the most concise and yet thorough summary of the day's happenings in Ukraine. I kept my subscription after the trial period to do my small part to support all the great reporters covering Ukraine, in particular those on the podcast, literally in spite of the terrible Telegraph opinion writers. Keep up the great work Dom, Francis, David, Nataliya, Roland, Joe and all the rest who make the podcast fantastic!!
To be entirely truthful, the "steel islands" type of bases weren't out of range in Afghanistan or Iraq, they just were in place against an enemy that couldn't reach out to them. They would have had the same difficulty then as they would now if they had been engaging another state instead of an insurgency limited to mainly handheld weaponry.
Awesome insight!
Loved the coffee gag at the end :) (I mean, and the entire dispatch of course)
The defeat of Afghanistan war costs usa too much
Loving these updates Telegraph.
I hope this does not come out wrong but I'm very interested to see how Challenger II does, I know it'ss close to commitment but part of me thinks it's being used for 'Other' purposes, for now.
Francis!!! Welcome to Defence in Depth!
Hoofing content! Much love from a cloggie. QPO, PMPT and Semper Fi
Well done! Now on to Ukraine The Latest podcast. Crestview, FL.
Excellent video …thanks
Another great video Dom.
Some good topics for the future:
- How to clear minefields and lessons learnt from Ukraine so far
- The Black Sea and the impact of the war on global trade
- Crimea in the context of a future offensive
- NATO's weak points and strong points
- How Ukraine can break a battlefield stalemate
So like Perun's last 6 videos?
Nice cameo from Francis hahaha. I listen to the Ukraine: The Latest daily and find it to be very informative. BZ, and carry on the great journalism guys
Yeah that Ukrainian landing was a total shitshow. Russian artillery and air strikes devastated that landing operation.
Great man great presenting.
Easily my favorite brief segment each week! One question: Is it now "The King's English" or will it persist as "Queen's English" for a generation out of respect? Cheers!
It's the Kings English. It changes the moment the monarch changes. So the Queen's Bench became the Kings Bench, Queen's Counsel became King's Counsel, etc
@@DS9TREK The Kings Arms in Weymouth however, remained 'The Kings Arms' throughout the reign of her late Majesty.
Bloody brilliant!
Another great video
I’m an ex bootie who served in late 70s early 80s, there is no better force than the Royal Marines, the US Marines can not be compared to them, they are not a commando force, when I was in we numbered about 7k, the training that Royal goes through is the longest and most intensive in the world for an infantry soldier, it’s the hardest thing I have ever done in my long life. I’ve worked along side US Marines and they have the utmost respect for Royal. These few UA soldiers have been given the best training and combat advice in the world. I used to dream about having contact with the Russians, maybe it will happen soon.
Lmao "royal marines" who attack and kill poor people in Syria? Go and fight a real enemy for a change, ain't no one respects your pathetic and useless navy which relies on USA for your protection
The Falkland War showcases the Royal Marines vs Argentina which was at that time a Soviet backed army, which was the closest the Royal Marines got to that sort of fighting
@@MarionLord Well one of their socialist lackeys
@@MarionLord another keyboard warrior in his bedroom, who know SFA.
@@jimjoelliejack Quite surprisingly to me, this is not completely wrong.
"The Soviet Union described the Falklands as "a disputed territory", recognising Argentina's ambitions over the islands and called for restraint on all sides. Soviet media frequently criticised the UK and US during the war. Significantly, however, the Soviet Union refrained from vetoing and thus made possible UN Security Council Resolution 502 demanding the immediate withdrawal of all Argentine troops from the Falklands.
However, the Soviet Union mounted some clandestine logistics operations to assist the Argentines.[208] Days after the invasion by the Argentine forces, the Soviets launched additional intelligence satellites into low Earth orbit covering the southern Atlantic Ocean. Conflicting reports exist on whether Soviet ocean surveillance data might have played a role in the sinking of HMS Sheffield and HMS Coventry.[209][210][211]"

This always so good
Splendid reporting
I can finally put a face to the voice, I listen daily to the Ukraine war podcast on Spotify. Great video very informative .
The sequel to bay of pigs is looking spicy.
Brilliant insight from Dom as always. I just wonder what the comments might be from the Paras😇
Much appreciated. Few seem to appreciate how difficult such operations are, and that the Dardenelles Capaign was probably the first large-scale opposed landing in modern warfare.
Y’all don’t talk about our American revolution? We do all the time, especially when we are intoxicated. It’s all good though, because often the bet of friends have often started off as playground enemies throwing sand and punches.
Excellent 👍

@@anthonyhulse1248 Or Dartmouth. I sound like that as well. xx
Both our marines need faster landing craft. Instead, the U.S. bought something slower. 🙅🤦🤦
Lots of rivers no surprise this is an essential force and technique they never had. 👍

I love youtube videos from exactly 10:00 minutes
I appreciate the help Great Britain has done for Ukraine and I'm thankful they have pushed my own country here in the USA to send the newer, longer range weapons! I'm still impatiently waiting for ATCMS and F-16s to be sent!
@@feralmodeNegotiating meaning Russia keeps 4 illegally annexed territories as well genociding the Ukrainian people in those territories, and then almost certainly regrouping militarily to take more territory on a weakened Ukraine at a later date?
And of course, the UK is the one making Ukraine not accept this reasonable genocidal reality imposed on them by Putin?
Nice try, Ivan.
@@feralmode Thanks to the UK for helping Ukrainians defend THEIR land against a colonizer who is a threat to the entire world. Thanks to the UK for helping Ukraine fight the Russian colonizers before Russians land troops in OUR countries.
@@feralmode Sure. "unwinnable" war and yet there are over 50,000 dead Russians and over 150,000 seriously wounded not to mention 2/3 of their weapons are destroyed.
