Attack On Europe: Documenting Russian Equipment Losses During The 2022 Russian Invasion Of Ukraine
ORYX ^ | Since February 24, 2022 and daily | ORYX

Posted on 04/07/2023 7:25:07 AM PDT by SpeedyInTexas

This list only includes destroyed vehicles and equipment of which photo or videographic evidence is available. Therefore, the amount of equipment destroyed is significantly higher than recorded here. Small arms, ATGMs, MANPADS, loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles, trailers and derelict equipment are not included in this list. All possible effort has gone into avoiding duplicate entries and discerning the status of equipment between captured or abandoned. Many of the entries listed as 'abandoned' will likely end up captured or destroyed. Similarly, some of the captured equipment might be destroyed if it can't be recovered. When the origin of a piece of equipment can't be established, it is not included in the list. The Soviet flag is used when the equipment in question was produced prior to 1991. This list is constantly updated as additional footage becomes available.

I’m enjoying watching the disinformation coming out right now.

US and NATO are now playing disinformation games with their ISR flights in the region. Hard to tell what they are up to right now.

I don’t give a hoot about Russian losses. I want an accounting of where our billions of dollars went during this stupid preventable war.

The Russian military, the second largest military in the world, may not be what it looks like.

Designed to support the U.S. Army Captains Career Course, “Understanding Combined Arms Warfare” defines and outlines the important aspects of modern combined arms operations. This is not a complete history of combined arms warfare. It is intended to highlight the most important aspects of the subject.

The beginning of the documentary establishes a common understanding of combined arms warfare by discussing doctrinal and equipment developments in World War I. The second part compares the development of French and German Army mechanization during the interwar period and describes how each country fared during the Battle of France in 1940. The film concludes by showing how the United States applied combined arms operations in the European Theater in World War II.

For Russians, the war in Ukraine continues to have consequences at home as border towns were hit with attacks Thursday.
https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/ukraine-situation-report-russian-border-town-hit-with-onslaught-of-attacks

Excerpts:
Though far from wreaking the level of devastation of Russian attacks on its soil, Ukraine continues to strike back across the border. Russian governors say their regions came under attack by Ukrainian fires, drones, and a partisan group aligned with Kyiv.

Belgorod Oblast has come under attack several times this week, Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov said on his Telegram channel.

“An unmanned aerial vehicle was shot down by an air defense system in the Valuysky urban district,” he wrote Thursday. “There were no casualties or damage, its remains fell into the field. The task force is surveying the area.”

The drone, a Poseidon H10 used by Ukraine for reconnaissance and correcting fires, was found about 12.5 miles from the border.

==
Little has changed on the battlefield over the past couple months, other than rising deaths and equipment losses on both sides.

==
Ukraine’s Deputy Minister of Defense, Hanna Malyar, offered a peak into Kyiv’s decision-making when it comes to her nation continuing to defend Bakhmut. “I will open the curtain a little - what is behind the words ‘fighting continues in Bakhmut’ and how operational decisions are made,” she said Thursday on her Telegram channel.

“Combat actions are accompanied by serious analytical work of a large number of people,” she said. “Decisions are made on the basis of a comprehensive analysis and calculations of the likely development of the situation:

A. the operational situation on the spot is monitored and reported to headquarters 24/7
B. staffs continuously analyze the actions of the enemy and the dynamics of changes in the situation according to many criteria
C. based on the received data, the headquarters predict probable threats and actions of the enemy.”

Operational information and analysis “are continuously reported to the command of the Khortytsia Operational-Strategic Group of Troops, in whose area of responsibility the Bakhmut direction is now located.”

Based on that analysis, “forecasts of the enemy’s actions and assessment of our capabilities, the command makes operational decisions and formulates tasks for units.” So, “when you hear the words “situation under control’ in the summaries - it is so,” she said.

==
To help ensure the success of current and future Ukrainian operations, Operation Interflex, the U.K.-led multinational effort, is continuing to train those troops. The goal is to help 20,000 recruits become soldiers by the end of the year. So far, the U.K. says Operation Interflex is more than halfway there.

More than 7,000 volunteer applications have already been submitted to a new unit being formed as part of the Offensive Guard assault brigades.

“Some of the applications have already been considered, and those [able] to make the cut and meet the admission requirements are already enlisted in the unit,” said Andrii Demchenko, State Border Guard Service of Ukraine spokesman Wednesday during a briefing at the Ukraine Media Center.

The units, called Border of Steel, are currently being trained and coordinated, Demchenko said. “Only once the cohesion and training are complete will the unit perform tasks to defend Ukraine in the east at large,” he said. “I want to note that the unit will operate just like other units of the Border Guard Service, according to the general plan of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.”

[Defense Breached | It Clearly Was A Weak Spot | Ukrainians Conduct A Successful Counterattack]

••Day 407: April 06

Today a lot of updates are coming from the Donetsk region. Here, after the recent massive wave of assaults along the whole Avdiivka front, Russians degraded their forces on the ground to the point where certain Russians positions became weak. Ukrainians took advantage of the situation and started from recapturing some of the most important trench networks on this front.

Last time I told you that a Russian assault battalion from the 5th Brigade was virtually annihilated in suicidal attacks from Vodiane and that their survival rate was 11%. I also told you that Russian forces started reinforcing this region with mobilized soldiers that are not even specialized in assaults.

The freshest reports indicate that Ukrainian forces took advantage of the decreased capabilities of Russian formations south of Avdiivka and conducted a counterattack. There are two important trench networks between Vodiane and Sieverne, and each of them is located on a hill. Russians had established control over one of them a while ago, but the second position turned out to be too strong.

Recent footage shows that Ukrainian Marines from the 36th Brigade launched extensive artillery preparation on the tree lines in font of Vodiane and then stormed the strongpoint and established total control over the trenches. The increased control over the elevated ground allowed Ukrainians to improve their tactical position significantly. Russian failure to hold this position complicates all their plans for this direction and dispels hopes of taking Avdiivka into a pocket.

In the meantime, after months of infantry fights in the fields between Pevomaiske and Nevelske, Russian forces decided to launch several tank assaults. This was the only area around Avdiivka where Russians had not yet tried a heavy attack during this new wave of offensive actions. Unfortunately for Russians, they did not achieve their objectives. Combat footage reveals that the first attack was stopped by artillery.

Recent footage features another attempt to push Ukrainians out of Nevelske, however, this time Ukrainian 59th Brigade seems to have adjusted to the situation and brought in more ATGMs to this sector. This time Ukrainians allowed Russians to get much closer, so when Ukrainians opened fire, Russian tanks did not manage to run away.

When it comes to the northern part of the region, here Ukrainians made another counterattack. Ukrainian Spokesman for the Tavriisk Group of Forces reported on 3rd March that the Russian 200th Separate Motorized Rifle Brigade withdrew from the Avdiivka area for recovery. Ukrainians took advantage of that situation as well and assaulted Russian positions in Novoselivske.

Ukrainian soldiers from the 71st Hunting Brigade said that they were clearing these trenches so fast that Russian artillery did not manage to aim in time and was constantly firing at the already cleared trenches behind them. Such a move aims to undermine the Russian tactical position in Novobakhmutivka because these trenches are located on a hill, 90 meters above Novoselivka and Russian ground lines of communication.

In the Krasnohorivka area, Ukrainian drone operators from the 110th Mechanized Brigade continued to destroy Russian forces in the trenches in front of Avdiivka. Recently released combat footage indicates that they have cleared at least 5 shelters by dropping mines and grenades into the holes.

Since many sectors of the Avdiivka front line are inactive and Russians are either sitting in trenches or firing from mortars, there was too much work for one drone detachment. That is partly why Ukrainians have relocated the famous Madiar’s Birds Drone Battalion. Such news had a bad effect on Russian troops’ morale, which is why Russians even launched an information operation and circulated fake news that Madiar was killed.

However, Madiar promptly dispelled the speculations and released a lot of videos with successful drone operations. One video shows how drone operators identified an enemy’s mortar crew, and once the crew went inside the house, they flew the drone through the door and blew it up. Russian sources also complained yesterday that Ukrainians started mining the grenade-dropping drones. This means that whenever Russians shoot it down, Ukrainians detonate it when Russians pick it up.

Overall, in the aftermath of a short but very costly offensive campaign, Russian forces degraded to the point where they started to struggle to retain previously captured positions, which allowed Ukrainians to recapture tactically significant trenches on the hills. Ukrainian drone operators also continue to inflict significant damage to Russian troops on the zero line by constantly dropping explosives on their shelters and also hunting down their mortar crews.

Take with grain of salt, but numbers are in the ball park

Russia said it would modernize 800 T-62s, but the count did not find that many which may indicate that the program had already begun before the count was made or some officers are lying

During Soviet times their 60,000 tanks were "stored" in active units and only 10% were kept in long term storage.

The video below show's the drone unit known as The Wings of Madyar assembling FPV suicide drones...

I would guess that Madyar is also training other drone units on drone tactics.

I would also like to find the video that shows how drone operators identified an enemy’s mortar crew, and once the crew went inside the house, they flew the drone through the door and blew it up.

The video I posted is supposedly drone operators so it isn’t the mortar crew video described at 3:45 of this video.

It's possible that the narrator misspoke and called the mortar crew "drone operators".

Regardless, it is a great video & thanks for finding & posting it.
