I remember a few months ago they were showing the Russian trenches in the East near Kharkiv after being occupied by the Russian for 5 or 6 months, that picture was horrific and there don't seems to be an order for thing, I remember I had pointed out that that is just bad soldiering and it reflected a lot about Russian military as a whole.
And then this happened, I mean bunching that many people in the same place that close to the front line is something competent armies would never do. That's just bad soldiering and whoever bunch that much people on top of a ammo dump (forgot to mention in my previous post) ought to be shot.
hmm, interesting, I was kind of in a hurry and didn't double check, probably mistyped in my calculator?? But yeah, my point is still the same tho, thanks for pointing out the error.
This kind of accuracy is not possible unless someone is lazing the target on ground, it must have been Covert Ops involved.The accuracy of those HIMARS is astounding. The building was surrounded by housing and yet not one of them appears to have been hit. Accommodations troops in an ammunition store what a brilliant idea as what could possibly go wrong.
Pity it wasn't the Wagner group /units or his pumped up football hooligan brigade
kind of smug quoting my own quote, but number 7 is becoming true just 6 days into 2023......My Prediction on the Ukrainian War in 2023
1.) Russia is going to try for another offensive most likely between March to June. Most likely direction is North thru Belarus to Kyiv (If Belarussian play balls with Russian) if not then Russia would most likely try to retake Lyman in the North East.
2.) Ukraine will focus on the current condition setting and attack Svatove and most likely open up another front in Zaporizhzhia
3.) High Chance for Russia to lose Kreminna and Svatove before Summer.
4.) Medium to Low chance Russia will lose Melitopol or Mariupol by Summer
5.) Medium to Low chance for Russia to be successful on the Spring Offensive
6.) Bakhmut direction will largely remain unchanged.
7.) NATO will increase weapon transfer to Ukraine.
That’s good. That will be a big push for Ukraine but those light tanks would be probably not enough for the final battles at Mariupol and Crimea.With the deliveries of Bradley’s, Marders, and more HIMARS, we’re now approaching the point where the US/NATO believe Ukraine can liberate all its territory. They’re now preparing for a major spring offensive to destroy Russian lines.
I expect Russia will be defeated by the end of the year with Ukraine regaining most of its territory.
The Bradleys(and other vechicles) are stepping stone to Abrahams, Leopards and Leclerc's as once crews are trained on the smaller tanks - they can be moved to the larger tanks..
I dont think there are issues with supplying tanks - it was getting the trust that Ukraine can use modern western weapons effectively and they could make good use of them. That is proven now. So there will be an uptick in larger equipment heading to ukraine it seems.
It started with M113 troop carriers, now IFV/Mini-tanks.. the scale is getting bigger.
This is the clearest signal that the big tanks are heading to Ukraine !!!!!!!!!!!
Built for Soviet times
The AMX-10 is a light, highly mobile, armoured vehicle equipped with a 105mm cannon. It has been used in reconnaissance missions for the French army and was deployed as recently as the Barkhane mission in Africa, which formally ended in November.
“It’s a vehicle that was designed in the 70s and 80s to track the advance of Soviet armed land forces. The paradox is that it will be used today for the purpose it was built for … because the Russians have shown their doctrine hasn’t shifted much since the Soviet times,” Pellistrandi said.
Leopard 2 about 100... split between Army storage (46) and company storage (for building upgraded versions)Macron promises to send first Western tanks to Ukraine
French move piles pressure on Germany to follow.www.politico.eu
Tells you all you need to know about the might "Red Army.." - it is still a little "too Red.."
PS - How many Leopard tanks do Germany have in storage ? Anyone knopw?
