Thanks to Nippon's efforts, the Russians are slowly being pushed back. Kyiv has been retaken. Vilnius retaken. Kaliningrad, taken. Minsk is within sight. A number of Russian offenses into the Baltic turned into slaughter as they were cut off, encircled, and destroyed.

The skies now are free mostly of Russian planes. Approximately 600 remain. This has simplified Nippon's CAS efforts, and now Russian positions are finding themselves bombed by aerial missions.

The war is not over yet, however, and there is still a long way to go before Russia calls it quit.
