The end of tanks as we know it?

[Michael Kenny]

Mines are the big winner here. If the UKR cant clear the fields under fire they wont make much progress.

Those vehicles were going back along the road they came in on. No mine losses then

Russian sources are saying The Ukrainian Drones were completely taken out by a new Russian ECM system .

If true they are idiots for talking about it.

Almost all or all (depending on your point of view) showed track losses (this is the first pic).

What exact value do we receive from Rybar artwork ? If your intent is to drown us in non-value added noise, and thereby lock another thread, then by all means continue.

More film of the wrecks released today and the large group together has increased in numbers overnight. Also a Leopard has vanished from where it was yesterday. I suspect the 'mined' group are now a collection point for recovered wrecks and frantic efforts are underway to make sure nothing ends up on display in Gorky Park!

[Michael Kenny]

Film has appeared that is almost certainly this group of vehicles where we can see one Bradley pass by safely and the second gets hit.
The Leopard and mine-clearer do not seem to be there yet.

Multiple reports that Leopards were recovered by The Russians as well as further armoured thrusts defeated. Film expected.

I am going to stick my neck out. I believe the 3 Bradley's were hit in this location and it appears to be the furthest south of the Ukrainian attack. Later the Russians dragged a few more wrecks to this location and it is a collection point for them. They will be the vehicles that multiple sources say they have captured.
Attempts are being made to downplay the Russian success with claims that this column was 'ambushed' and it was faulty Ukrainian tactics that caused the problems. I have looked at all the available films and it appears that individual 'kills' were made when this column was indeed using correct spacing. There are no hits shown on a group but only on individual tanks and Bradley's. Russian artillery worked really well here hitting a dispersed group and they did not even reached the first line of the Russian trenches. All vehicles were lost in the grey zone between the two Armies.

Ukraine has also launched counterattacks in the Bakhmut flanks.

Last night another Ukrainian breakthrough attack in the Z-Oblast front, another dismal failure.

A few more weeks of this and people will start to conclude that NATO offensive training and equipment is just as worthless as the Russian.

[Cult Icon]

"After analyzing the photos and videos posted on the Web, Rybar's team compiled a map of the losses of equipment of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Zaporozhye direction over the past few days.

In total, Russian servicemen managed to disable 77 tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, armored personnel carriers, and enemy armored vehicles in areas near Orekhove and Vremyevka. The list includes only those vehicles whose destruction or destruction is confirmed by open source materials: in fact, their number is clearly higher."

Are we talking about the same picture (for example, the linked movie I had) - with 1 leo and 4-5 Bradleys ? All the vehicles were tracked from what appears to be mines, and no obvious signs of artillery impacts. A 152mm impact on or near a vehicle is going to leave a noticable crater and scorch damage.

I wouldnt worry about that. We already have a years worth of evidence of the worthlessness of the RU offensive training, and ample evidence of better UKR training (who retook Izyum ?)
