Ukrainian serviceman complain about the level of Russian mines encountered during the current offensive

Ain't no way Ukrainian soldiers that looks and refer to Russian soldiers as Orcs are going to heaven for proudly defending their country, they going to hell for being used as a tool in dehumanizing the Russians soldiers. Oh also bonus sin points for mention of the serious intention to do flaying ( a form of torture where of skin of body is removed, like what Ramsay Bolton does to his victims in GoT for example where you see only red tendons and all what's behind the skin) to Russian soldiers.

Of course the opposite is the same for the Russian soldiers but they probably just call Ukrainian soldiers neo nazis which is still supposely human while orcs are monsters.

Always soldiers from the moment they hold a gun, they are already expecting themselves to go straight to the depths of hell if it does exists.

MTLB mobile chicken coop variant

my opinion still stands.
it will work against FPV drones.

really captures the ferocity when dealing with modern army and going thru a prepared defensives lines
the whole iraqi war the abrams only suffers 9 destroyed tanks.. this one offensive straight double digits
yea not really fair to compare leos to abrams but this their "real" first war (not counting their subpar performance in turkish counter-insurgency ops)

Other stuff besides FPV like soldiers or tanks will see it from a mile away tho
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Good! Who the F been deploying petal mines in civilian areas of the Donbass?

Someone forgot to send this foreign merc the memo that that says no soldiers in Kramatorsk. Only journos, tourists, peace activists, and civvies.

the amount of dust that a tracked vehicle make across the road, stealth will hardly be its main concern. while this design does stop FOV and bomber drones, most likely it won't work against ATGM or nearby artillery strikes.

i don't think russians came up with a bad idea just maybe needs a lot of refinement.

On June 23, Prigozhin captured a Russian Army headquarters in Rostov, and then launched multiple armored columns straight towards Moscow. This could have been the start of a "Russian Civil War", but the entire ordeal lasted less than 24 hours, and everybody went home. Many questions remain. What was the objective of Prigozhin? Some claim it was to topple the Government, and replace some key members of Russia' Ministry of Defense. Others believe it was staged, and part of a PSYOP operation to relocate the Wagner PMC.

main army HQ defenseless

These are american tourists and school children in Khakis

Deployment and destruction of a UA howitzer

you are right about your skepticism of it, it didn't even stop a FPV drone.

surprisingly, the trench is not as deep as the usual ones.

An attempt by the Ukrainian army’s 47th Assault Brigade and 33rd Mechanized Brigade to cross a minefield in southern Ukraine on June 8 was even more disastrous than we knew.

Analysts recently have tallied even more wrecked and abandoned 47th Brigade M-2 infantry fighting vehicles. At the same time, a Ukrainian photographer on or before Saturday got close enough to the site of the failed assault to snap photos of the Russian minefield that trapped the Ukrainian battlegroup, ultimately destroying dozens of 47th and 33rd Brigades’ best Western-made vehicles and killing or wounding many Ukrainians.

Russian scouts spotted the 47th-33rd Brigade battlegroup approaching Robotyne on June 8 and called in Kamov attack helicopters that plucked at the Ukrainian column with anti-tank missiles. But it was the mines that did in the 33rd and 47th Brigades.

The 47th Brigade’s ex-Finnish Leopard 2R mineclearing vehicles led the way, assisted by at least one German-made Wisent mineclearer possibly belonging to the 33rd Brigade.

But the British-made plows on the Leopard 2Rs and Wisent clearly missed more than a few mines. Three Leopard 2Rs and a Wisent struck mines, as did several M-2s. Trapped and under fire, the battlegroup fell apart. Crews bailed out of their disabled vehicles, dragging their dead and wounded with them. A rescue force riding in M-2s scooped up many of the survivors.

The smoke cleared to reveal no fewer than 25 wrecked Ukrainian vehicles: 17 M-2s, four Leopard 2A6 tanks, three Leopard 2Rs and one Wisent. To outside observers, the losses initially seemed lighter. But over the next two weeks, analysts scrutinized drone videos and snapshots from the ground and steadily added to the list.

In a bloody hour or two, the 47th-33rd Brigade battlegroup lost nearly a fifth of Ukraine’s M-2s, a fifth of its Leopard 2A6s and half its Leopard 2Rs. The United States promptly pledged more than enough extra M-2s to make good the June 8 losses, but Ukraine’s European allies have yet to pony up more Leopard 2A6s. And there literally aren’t any more Leopard 2Rs.

Pro-ukrainian sources keep saying 'light losses' tho
