Some tractors smoking...
Russia Ukraine War 2022
- Thread starter WARREN SS
- Start date
One lepord is under smoke two abandoned as in the latest offensive video from the russian ministry, one lepord is seen smoking, may be not fully destroyed but damaged enough to send in smoke and crew abandon it. of 3/300 lepord are down.Everything in this post can be debated; 2 IRIS-T complex can be countered with one radar and one launcher. 11 Leopards may very well be propaganda...but one thing that's hands down as accurate as it can get is

Probably the sight of burning leopard tractors, amx10 bail gaddis is hitting the brochure commando pretty hard.

For make benefit of thread memeebrs especially @Corvus Splendens who claims that chechens have got the Chinese funny car and @Lonewarrior who has expressed very surprised reaction to this claim of Corvus splendens.
The attached picture is a Chinese funny car, which is reportedly being used by chechens in Ukraine.

Artillery makes the difference. Great coordination between infantry with artillery is what makes a killer army.

Yes it was.
Lobkove was part of the farword observing posts/ farword deployment posts, which was there to slow down and analyse the enemy power. there are more than three such posts still. ukraine has to move five kilometers deep to reach the first line of defense of russia.
Russia is slowly pulling the ukraine forces into artillery zone. It is totally upon ukraine to play this tic tac toe game and counter russian artillery. fixed russian positions meen, ukraine will have less time to react in the event of a russian tactical counter offensive.
the entirety is now upon strategy and courage, if anything should be misled and misguided entire battle goes awry.
velyka novosilka is the only weekpoint in the russian defense where there is single defense lines with just reserve points, zaporhiziya is a fortress for any offensive from the land side but any offensive from the river side or thorugh kherson it should be a disaster.
with just single line as per current data availability which is still 10km away from the front lines, valyka novosilka is the most vulnerable point which could lead the way to the mariupol highway.
@R A Varun After the events in Izyum and Kherson, and Severedonetsk, I no longer take "Rope a dope" statements predictions seriously until proven otherwise.

Classic mongol tactics.
Contrary to attitudes here, morale in Russia itself has been somewhat faltering: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-n...yan-rt-editor-suggest-end-russia-ukraine-war/
Not that it really matters. It just means she might mysteriously fall out a window.

Bah, lots of such op-eds came out in the USA. Did that stop USA's imperialist-terrorist activities in the Middle East?

Compilation video of Polish Warmate "kills" - flies like it has Tourette syndrome, doubt most of them hit. Of course Indian Army bought them under emergency procurement

Referenda on annexation to Russia were already held in the 4 captured provinces of Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizye and Kherson.. so what is the point of holding referenda again ?
Go ask her - she was the one crowing about them last year. Maybe losing Kherson beat some sense into her.

Some random comment being blown out of proportion by Torygraph which has long been a shameless Ukrop propaganda mouthpiece. Glad I stopped giving them my money when my subscription ran out earlier this year. If you listen to most serious Russian commentators (including for instance Rybar speaking at a function in Crimea recently) most expect the war to go on for 20-30 years, until Ukraine ceases to exist as a sovereign entity. 'SVO' has completely dropped off the news agenda in Russia (a recent poll showed only 18% regard it as headline news compared to 80% 12 months ago) but public support for finishing Ukraine off remains strong. I doubt many in Russia pay much attention to the pronouncements of Ms Simonyan anymore, with most content with the Russian long game of grinding the Ukrops down whilst the West's patience gradually runs out.

Russia has stopped their offensive in Avdiivka.. and are forced on the defensive as Ukraine makes some gains around Optyne
Honestly ISW has shown those gains for quite a while. The fact that DPA only just woke up to this makes me think even less of him.
