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 just posted on the Makiivka strike!
More on Makiivka...
“In Makiivka, the AFU allegedly hit a Russian base that was located in the former School 19 building, killing/wounding a lot of Russian soldiers. Locals are questioning why nobody is talking about it and are angry that their ‘government’ is trying to act like everything is fine.”
“Locals say that everything is surrounded and no one is allowed in. The building was filled with mobilized soldiers, the story goes.”
Video: “Footage of the alleged attack captured on camera by locals watching Putin’s speech.”

Every Freeper of who is not a deranged NWO cheerleader or a shortbus rider thinks Speedy and his daily blast of propaganda is a joke.
Makiivka...
“Multiple Telegram channels claim that hundreds of mobilized Russians got killed.”
However, UKR is currently employing Caesars , the gigantic truck-mounted (wheeled) artillery units France sent.
To date, only one Caesar has been damaged...none destroyed.
While wheeled artillery will have limited use in winter, I am confident that UKR will put them to good use as weather permits.
“They document Ukrainian losses”
Thanks for the other link. Seems like both of those links should be put into the same post.
The link below will show where the Russian base was using google maps.
Looks like a large building.
Sleeping 600 mobiks in one building is pretty dumb...then RU has never been accused of being smart.
JDAMs?
Perhaps RU was using part of the building for ammo storage.
UKR target intel did a great job.
RU intel...not so much.

Wow!
Reports now that Russians were storing ammo in the basement.

You can also click the 3 comments to the right of the video.
Translate the 3rd comment.
It says: “Yesterday I was in the hospital carrying the wounded in batches. one of the soldiers said out of 600, God forbid 100 were left and in the morning they were still taking out the bodies from under the rubble”
“Reports now that Russians were storing ammo in the basement.”
Always store ammo in the building where your troops are sleeping.
Well, for RuZZian troops that is.
We probably won't ever get the "full" story, but I wonder how long UKR target intel have been "watching" the building...patiently waiting for the perfect time to launch the attack.
RU bakeries gotta bake 600 more cakes.
Caption says, “Straight from the F-—ing F-— Makeevsky” 🤯
Most of the Russian military equipment is derived from the late Soviet era and early 1990s. Anything newer is designed and procured in the same system with the same problems, leading to long delays in deployment, high costs, and low numbers. Realistically, the internal problems the Russian military has now are likely worse than they were 30 years ago. Fighting smaller and more limited conflicts with weaker opponents hid much of their problems until now. There is now a accumulated 30 years since the collapse of Soviet Russia of how well Russian military equipment really works that those proclaiming Russia's inevitable victory choose to ignore.
I would add that military equipment is not the only "issue" where Russia is struggling.
Their military doctrine is the same as the USSR doctrine. Decisions are made at the highest possible level. Independent thinking is simply not allowed.
RU strategies and tactics are also USSR hand-me-downs.
Massive artillery barrage, armored breakouts, infantry mop-up.
Almost no thought has been given to the impact of high technology on the battlefield.
To date, RU has lost 1600 tanks and a lot of those losses were quad copter drones dropping shape charge sub munitions on a tank parked in an open area.
It is funny listening to all the pro-Russian experts.
Pro-Russian expert is an oxymoron.
The Russian army is a mirror of Russian society. It is too corrupt and incompetent to do anything but make a big mess in Ukraine. Putin is a classic schoolyard bully who has always counted on the west cutting off aid to Ukraine. He’s arrogantly motivated his Ukrainian opponents with maximalist and irrendist rhetoric. Nothing motivates a man to fight more than telling a him that his country has no right to exist and then bombing his home. Russia and Putin have no plan now. All he can do now is keep killing Ukrainians women and children with the hope that river of blood will give the friends of Ukraine cold feet.
