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 Russian prosecutor has asked for the maximum prison term of 4 years and 11 months of imprisonment of wanted war criminal Igor Girkin in a general regime colony. He is accused of inciting extremism.
The verdict will take place on January 25 in a Moscow court.”

Ukraine: Artillery Coalition Launches (in French)

France would deliver 6 Caesar in the coming weeks and was able to produce an additional 72 in 2024 for Ukraine.
In order to support Ukraine for as long as necessary, the 50 or so states of the Contact Group for Ukraine, also known as the “Ramstein format,” have organized into coalitions for more effective support in the short, medium and long term.
Five capacity coalitions have emerged: ground-to-air defense, armor, air force, maritime security and, since Thursday, artillery. Alongside the United States, France, with its recognized industrial and operational expertise in this field, co-chairs the artillery coalition.
The aim of this coalition is to provide the Ukrainian armed forces with capabilities in this key segment in defense of Ukraine’s territory in the short term. In the long term, it also aims to build the future Ukrainian artillery through ambitious and innovative industrial partnerships.
France will use EUR 50 million from its Support Fund for Ukraine to provide 12 of these 72 Caesar cannons. “There are therefore 60 to be funded. This is my call to all allies in our cooperation of the Ramstein format,” said Sébastien Lecornu.
Regarding the 155 mm tanks used by the Caesar, Sébastien Lecornu indicated that France would be able to supply 3,000 per month to the Ukrainian army at the end of January, compared to the current 2,000 per month and only 1,000 per month at the start of the war.
“Because we produce faster or because we are able to recycle powder into munitions,” he stressed, welcoming the speed of the pace of the transition to the war economy.
On the other hand, on Tuesday, the President of the Republic announced the delivery in 2024 of some 40 SCALP long-range missiles to Kiev, in addition to the 2023 shipments.
He also confirmed the delivery of several hundred AASM-powered bombs. The latter offer a capability for precision remote strikes in order to weigh on the rear of the Russian combat device.

The President of the Republic announced a trip in February and a new delivery of weapons, including 40 long-range Scalp missiles and “hundreds of bombs” to kyiv.
France will deliver 40 new long-range SCALP missiles and “hundreds of bombs” to Ukraine, the head of state announced.
France had already delivered these SCALP missiles in the summer of 2023. These missiles are capable of targeting targets located 500 kilometers away.
During the previous delivery, the Minister of Defense at the time, Sébastien Lecornu, nevertheless specified that the missiles delivered were modified to only have a range of 250 kilometers (155 miles).
“Don’t let Russia win”
The SCALP allows the Ukrainian army to strike areas currently under Russian control. “It is essential for Ukrainian forces to disrupt logistics as well as Russian command and control,” Ivan Klyszcz, a researcher at the International Center for Defense and Security (ICDS) in Estonia, explained to AFP in July.
I will go to Ukraine myself in February,” added the President of the Republic.
He also indicated that France was “in the process of finalizing a security agreement” with Kiev of the type that was concluded on Friday between the United Kingdom and Ukraine over ten years, adding that France and the European Union would “have to make new decisions in the weeks and months to come, precisely so as not to let Russia win.”

Loss of equipment is important loss of trained crews maybe even more
What galling stoogery is the idea that the Ukranians are interested in occupying Moscow or St. Petersburg, maybe you should worry more about heating and electricity for muscovites and whether your wildberry order got torched
Leave Ukraine and this ends
Look for a massive uptick in moscovite loses around avdiivka
Political decisions on the front always end well
Maybe you should be worried about keeping AMERICANS warm and safe. No, you’d rather pi$$ $150Billion away on Uke corruption. When your Globohomo/Neocon, warmongering DC fellow travelers leave their unprovoked proxy war, this ends.
Leave Ukraine Putin
Putin would have never been there if not for the Obama gang overthrowing the elected Uke government in 2014. From that point on the country was a corrupt DC satrap, there to enrich DC oligarchs and to press Hillary’s Russia, Russia, Russia deliriums on a Russia wanting to keep Ukraine neutral and themselves at peace. This is ALL due to Obama’s globohomoism and the neocons innate warmongering which leaves them easily controlled stooges for globohomoism.
Since France wants as many of her weapons as possible to be domestically made, they made their own kit for the MK82 and MK83 bombs rather than rely solely on JDAM kits. Their version adds an optional rocket motor to extend range rather than a wing kit like our JDAM-ER.
Knowing Ukraine and their ingenuity, they will try to combine the HAMMER rocket kit with the JDAM-ER wing kit to create a Hammer-ER.
It should be noted (posted elsewhere) that Europe has supplied $10 billion more in military aid than has the US.
And far, far more in financial aid, not to mention the financial impact of millions of refugees. Europe's total aid is double ours.
And they should be more invested than us. Russia is a much more immediate threat to Europe, and they should be acting like it. They are slowly waking up to this reality.

Above is a picture of the tank. I have no way to verify that.
However, what I find interesting is that the Mavic drone that took the picture is flying without GPS sattelite information.
Mavics can easily defeat GPS jamming.
Here's a pic:

Shouldn't it be call JDAM-EER?

That is a great talking point, but I don’t buy it.
You have Poland, Latvia, estonia(real close to moscow) and Lithuania right on Russian border and the linch pin to spring the trap and destroy Russia was Ukraine, got it
I guess most of nato demilitarizing and trading with Russia was just another clever ploy
Oh can’t forget nazis, whatever that means today
Save the Kremlin talking points for the Putin apologists
