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.

"Another group of Russians just got HIMARed while lined up on a training ground. This time in occupied Kherson region."

Anxiously awaiting confirmation.

The link below shows a HIMARs attack on a building that housed ruzzian FPV drone operations.

These precision HIMARs attacks would indicate high altitude Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) drone capability by UKF.

🇺🇦⚔️ Southern Front, Krynky Operational Sector: Ukrainian precision strike on the operations hub of a 🇷🇺 Russian FPV operator group. It is believed that none of the enemy pilots survived.

F-16 training getting very interesting today. I think Crimea is the objective.

“GLSDB strike on the left bank “

[SpeedyInTexas]

I wonder if this is it.

If Crimea is the objective, then the training must be related to Combined Arms.

Please ping me with any additional info.

🔥Ukrainian HIMARS visited another gathering of Russian infantry at a military training ground. This time near Podo-Kalynivka, occupied left bank.

Among losses are Russians from the 328th Rifle Division and 810th Separate Guards Marine Brigade.

Not combined arms. Just cutting it off completely.

[FtrPilot]

The video was taken by a Ukrainian SHARK UAV.

[FtrPilot]

Cutting it off will only take 3 bridges.

Most difficult will be Kerch.

The other 2 can be hit by GLSDBs.

It's amazing that these drones are surviving at medium altitude, loitering for long periods in what should be well defended air space. They certainly don't look stealthy. The troops on the ground have no idea they are being targeted as they gather nice and tight into a group.

A few other countries are now providing fixed wing drones with similar capabilities, as well as some hybrid drones (fixed/rotary wing).

[marcusmaximus]

After the first Kherson HIMARS hit on the Russians in training today, there was a double tap on the first responders.

[FtrPilot]

"They certainly don't look stealthy."

Their small size alone makes them stealthy.

The wings & body are composite, which doesn't reflect radar energy.

The engine is hidden and not exposed.

It can fly as high as 9,000 feet, making them impossible to acquire visually.

They orbit at approx 50mph...doppler radars will not display them.

My guess is the best way to locate them is to triangulate their radio transmissions.

[FtrPilot]

Thanks for the info!

[FtrPilot]

The link below shows both HIMARs hits.

They orbit at approx 50mph...doppler radars will not display them.

While true, doppler processing isn't the only mode on a LOT of radars. A coherent monopulse, multimode/multi-PRF radar can lock on a nonmoving target quite quickly. In the ideal case, a radar monopulse comparator (Sum, Delta Az/Delta El) can see and angle locate a target with one pulse

[FtrPilot]

Excellent information...thanks for posting.

My guess is if the radar operator knows that the target is a drone they will not use doppler mode. Or perhaps they would cycle between modes.

We seeing a lot of drone video where the folks on the ground don't know they are being tracked by a drone.

IMHO, drone warfare (or drone capabilities) is one of the biggest lessons of this war.

“another Russian Su-34.”

Holy Turkey Shoot, Batman!

“The Central Bank gave a forecast for the dollar “at 110-150 rubles”” (by mid-April)

Around the same time, Russia is looking at imposing new taxes on everyone. Prices will be up, after-tax income down, and the ruble worth less.

People should be noticing the belt tightening then. Especially the millions on the margin, who will pushed into poverty.

Pitins great hope is to maintain relative isolation of moscow(tuckers new favorite city) and St. Petersburg from negative effects of his war

People are often willing to accept others suffering and sacrifice, but when it hits home attitudes can change quickly.

Just look at Muscovite history.

Interesting article:

Iran Just Delivered Hundreds (400) Of Iranian Ballistic Missiles To Russia: Report
An infusion of proven ballistic missiles into Russia comes as Ukraine’s Patriot air defense systems’ long-term viability is being questioned.

Patriot batteries may soon run out of missiles unless the House GOP relents. There is no long-term sustainment plan.
