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.

🔥🔥explosions in Pskov, russia
🔥🔥explosions in Bryansk again
In the Czech Republic we have a joke that the Russians have the largest dwarf in the world.
It’s going to be a lot of fun in the near future when Ukraine’s “test” drone strikes on Moscow stop being “test” strikes. 🍿
This guy says fuel tanks on the IL-76s were targeted.
Likely part of the base covered by clouds contains at least 2 more planes that have totally burned up.
“More images from Pskov. Fuel tanks have been targeted.”

“Both planes were hit in exactly the same area on the right side at the transition between the fuselage and the wing. Very accurate Hits.”

“1/- 🛩️😎The diagrams showed the first satellite images after the drone strike at the airfield near Pskov.
The images show that at least 2 Il-76 aircraft were damaged on the night of August 29-30. After analyzing the satellite images,
2/- the damage to the planes was confirmed by aviation expert Anatoliy Khrapchynskyi, whom the “Schem” journalists approached for comment.
“On the satellite image we can see that the surface near the wings is damaged, most likely the drones tried to hit the fuel tanks
3/- located in that part of the aircraft. But this is still the removal of the aircraft for overhaul, which will take at least 2-3 months,” Khrapchynskyi explained.
Near one of the planes, you can also see two red cars that look like fire trucks,
4/. which could have been used to extinguish the fire.
The part of the airport where other damaged aircraft mentioned in the GUR message could be located is currently not visible due to high cloud cover.”

Darth Putin KGB
Day 553 of my 3 day war. Riot police in Pskov will stop Ukrainian drone attacks by beating the crap out of anyone who says Ukrainian are drones attacking Pskov.
I remain a master strategist.
Just to take a dig at the RuZZian Boys on FR...
“It stands to reason that, as a career comedian, Zelensky will continue to do the funniest thing imaginable; striking targets in Russia.”

Its official
“Oryx @oryxspioenkop List Of Aircraft Losses During The Russian Invasion Of #Ukraine 🇷🇺🇺🇦
Russian losses updated with:
- 2 Il-76 transport aircraft (damaged beyond economical repair)”

“Both planes were hit in exactly the same area... Very accurate Hits.”
A while back, Ukrainian drones hit the same building in Moscow, twice in one week.
If they (or their allies) can scale up production, it could become a very different war within Russia.
When Australia provided those small cardboard drones to the Ukraine, they did not bar their use within Russia - they came right out and said that there were legitimate military targets for Ukraine within Russia. Maybe there will be more of that spirit.
What did Zelensky just say to Pskov?
P*ss Off.
Pskov is a major base for Russian VDV airborne troops. It must be hugely demoralizing for those troops and their families to be receiving return fire at home.
Bit are they actually reviving that pay and how much is their commander and sgt taking
Sure if you want to go far back enough in history, but then there’s Russia. Done quite a bit of invading themselves, Crimea under empress Catherine, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Georgia, Chechnya, Hungary to name a few and who can forget the show stopper invading Poland allied with Nazi germany, that’s an oldie but goodie
Btw. No NATION PRENATO, has invaded Russia but Russia has.
So sorry not sorry not buying your talking point
Story I heard is the soviets sent a ball bearing to US and stated it was the smallest ball bearing in the world, US drilled a hole in it and sent it back saying worlds smallest pipe
“ Can anyone think of a single NATO member that has not invaded Russia?”
No NATO member has ever invaded Russia.
No nation was a NATO member before 1949.
This YouTube video (The Military Show, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0vY7GdaJKA) cites a Norwegian OSINT analyst, who observed that Russian tank losses have shifted from mostly new tanks at the start of the war (about 3/4 post Soviet) to mostly older tanks (about 3/4 Soviet era) in June of this year.
They estimated that about 60% of total tank stocks were already expended,and a lot of T-55s are coming out now.
Well put, the Russian apologist love to bring up historical events perpetrated against Russia, but never bring up Russian aggressions as if Russia is this innocent fawn being attacked by wolves.
Putin was going for his last gasp non-nato target to try and regain some of his lost empire. Regardless of the final results, this is nothing but a disaster of his own making for Russia and a tragedy for Ukraine and its peoples and land.
The war continues because he has done a sufficient job of insulating the ethnic Russians of Moscow and St. Petersburg from the majority of the effects of the war, that is changing. A further 500k mobilization cannot be sustained by his eastern Russian “brothers” and Moscow…. Will feel the effects. How many of those 500k will be needed for internal “security”
Many dictators have clung to power through intimidation and violence, but they all end the same way
