I have seen a few mentions of these recent Pentagon leaks about Ukraine's "spring counter-offensive" in the comments here so i gather that there are some comrades that have an interest for this sort of thing. From what i can tell this article does a good job summing up the most relevant big picture information that can be learned from these documents.

Warning: the author has thrown in a queerphobic "joke" for absolutely no reason which is very annoying and detracts from an otherwise professional piece.

It's a long read, so to sum up;

Ukraine doesn't have enough munitions or vehicles to counter Russian numbers. Ukraine isn't communicating with DC - leading to NATO being unable to catalogue the conflict accurately. DC is using Ukraine's propaganda numbers from a sheer lack of knowledge while having meticulous & exact numbers for Russian forces.

all-in-all Ukraine lacks any real ability to continue for much longer, while Russia doesn't seem to have any end in sight. It doesn't provide estimates for how much longer the war will last (as far as I can see) but there's clearly no long-term planning on the side of NATO. What may have started as an effort by NATO to weaken Russia has become an Uno reverse card, instead draining their stockpiles for a government that gives nothing of note in return.

in my very unprofessional opinion, based on what this report says, perhaps the war will end sometime either in the summer or the fall. I can't see a reality where Ukraine's able to keep up after this spring.

I want you to be right (war ending sometime soon this year), but I just read this:
