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. Loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles 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 a vehicle is captured and then lost in service with its new owners, it is only added as a loss of the original operator to avoid double listings. When the origin of a piece of equipment can't be established, it's 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.

The risk of sterilization is simply finger pointing.

Sterilization is, according to the Russians, a real risk. The police units were told the risk when they were given them. There are numerous different types in service all by different manufacturers. There is no standard.
According to the Russians?
I don't believe anything the Russians say. Period.
Why would they bother to warn their police units if it was a lie? They wanted the police to use the things in order not to make Putin mad and show their great success.
Since the police units can't get them to work, they are "blaming" the sterilization risk.
Yup. Interesting psychology at play, saw the same zealous evangelizing daily threads with covid. I wonder what makes people do that?
