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.

More likely the US and Japan may have to ally with Russia to prevent China from obtaining those territories and achieving world dominance. The rest of Asia will choose sides. The real seeds of WW III have been sown.
“A long and sometimes violent history between Russia and China has left a legacy of distrust. A museum in Heihe is dedicated to what it depicts as centuries of aggressions by Russian soldiers against the Chinese. Russian citizens aren’t permitted to enter the museum, a museum guard said, out of concern that they might get offended.
One exhibit depicts the killing of thousands of Chinese in the region by Russians in 1900. Over a loudspeaker, a narrator concludes that Russia-China relations were today peaceful, but that China must remain vigilant. “We can never forget this history,” the narrator said. “If you lag behind, you will get beaten.” “

Officials in the West and in Ukraine continue to insist that a counter-attack is coming. I have to assume this is a desperate psychological operation. I find it difficult to believe that responsible military leaders and planners would be publicly tipping their hand about what they intend to do and where they intend to strike. General Eisenhower and General Montgomery did not blather on in the press about their upcoming invasion in Normandy. They obfuscated their moves and made masterful use of deception. Ditto for Marshal Zhukov and General Konstantin Rokossovsky in their planning and execution of Operation Bagration.
I think the United States and its NATO partners are making a deadly mistake in underestimating Russian intelligence about the disposition and readiness of Ukrainian forces. What is clear is that the Russians are not saying anything about their plans for destroying the Ukrainian Army. But I am certain that such plans exist and are being executed according to a schedule dictated by Russia.
Kazan is the name of a city in RuZZia.
Is that where you live?
Good post. There will always be animosity between China and Russia.
Not shot down...
“Everyone heard about the recent MQ-9 incident- but we received a recent video that shows a Russian fighter unsuccessfully attempting to take down a much lighter Bayraktar TB-2 over the Black Sea near the coast of Crimea using jet wash in a similar manner.”

Plus:
“The Bayraktar TB2 is soon set to be equipped with SUNGUR MANPADS, which would make for an interesting outcome if such an incident is to happen again.”

You love dining on and trafficking in disinfo. You’re in luck. Here’s another flavor of disinfo for your delight.

Russians using maritime emergency beacons for targeting. Putin’s Russia hits bottom and keeps digging.

Oh, you only dine on domestic vintage disinfo BS. You have achieved tiny little cog status in your woke green pervo globalist movement with your constant posting of their propaganda. Disinfo is disinfo except for the saps who believe it.
But the allied propaganda system certainly did “blather on” about invading France in 1943-44. That was an open and obvious objective. The allied public certainly knew that.
The questions where where, when and how.
1/
A few days ago, our fighters have noticed an unidentifiable yellow device equipped with an antenna and a flashing red beacon, which was released from an unmanned aerial vehicle at a distance of 10 meters from its intended target.
2/ I didn’t have a chance to take a look at it personally but according to the information provided by the fighters on the ground, the dropped beacon is believed to be an ACR RLB-37 (or 35) “GlobalFix” emergency radio beacon.
3/ This emergency radio beacon is designed for marine use, operating within the Cospas-Sarsat satellite system. While this device is intended to facilitate swift and efficient rescue operations, it is used by Russians for precise targeting of our troops.
4/ The device has a certificate of approval from the Russian Maritime Register of Shipping.
It appears that the emergency radio beacons are available for sale. The link in the image description is included.
Here's a pic of the Msta-b:
Video clearly shows the stupidity of RU artillery.
https://twitter.com/NOELreports/status/1637457641852076038
The take-down occurred at night using a military drone with thermal imaging.
The Msta-b was recently fired as the barrel is still hot and easily detected by the thermal camera.
The first submunition dropped by the drone hits an ammo stack near the Msta-b. The ammo explosion from the first drop hits a nearby, larger stack of ammo, causing it to ignite.
The drone drops a second submunition, which scored a direct hit on the Msta-b.
It's pretty stupid to pile ammo right next to an artillery piece.
ACR RLB-37 = 549.95 USD
RuZZian Boy!
Meanwhile, Bakmut is falling, and Avdika is being encircled…..yet another cauldron formed, how is it the Ukies keep getting sucked into Vlad’s cauldron’s?
