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.

1/ Russia’s shortage of armoured vehicles and lack of an analogue for the M113 APC or M2A2 Bradley IFV has led soldiers to weld troop-carrying ‘booths’ onto rusting Soviet-era MT-LB armoured fighting vehicles. It highlights the Russian defence industry’s failure to adapt. ⬇️
2/ The MT-LB, built in Ukraine, Bulgaria and Poland from the early 1970s, is designed to carry 11 men in addition to a driver and gunner. However, like other Soviet-era APCs, it suffers from low headroom and narrow exit doors which slow down disembarcation from the vehicle.
Russian MT-LB emptying attack squad into Ukrainian machine gun field of fire. All nine soldiers getting KIA/WIA within one minute.
The MT-LB’s light armour (only 3-14 mm thick) also makes the vehicle itself highly vulnerable to drones and direct enemy fire. It is incapable of resisting the Bradley’s 25mm autocannon, let alone tank fire.
5/ As the Russian ‘Military Informant’ Telegram channel notes, “The production of new armoured vehicles is not capable of sufficiently covering the heavy losses incurred in them, and the number of vehicles removed from storage that are suitable for combat operations is becoming…
6/ …fewer and fewer – many types of equipment in the 1st and 2nd storage categories [i.e. in the best conditions, generally under cover] have already been exhausted, and those stored in less acceptable conditions require more and more time for major repairs and modernisation.”

Christo Grozev is a Bulgarian investigative journalist who has spent years tracking down Russian spies and is on Vladimir Putin's wanted list.Grozev’s open-source journalism exposed spies linked to the poisoning of Sergei and Yulia Skripal in 2018 and Alexei Navalny in 2020.
Now he is at the centre of his own sinister Kremlin plot, as a Bulgarian spy-ring was sent by Moscow to target him and planned to kidnap and kill him, before they were arrested and convicted in the UK. He speaks to Krishnan Guru-Murthy in this episode of Ways to Change the World ahead of the streaming release of his new documentary ‘Kill List: Hunted by Putin's Spies’ - which is available on Channel 4.
Apparently so is President Trump, after all he is sending munitions and intelligence to Ukrainians.
Guess that’s where the finger to the US families gif you repeat every 50 posts comes from🤔
By your definition so is President Trump, are not US tax dollars, munitions, equipment, and intelligence going to Ukraine right now?
BTW, to be clear I support our President doing that.🇺🇸

Preston’s comment #13,722 also suggests he is NOT American. The large person with a colorful drape is not supporting Ukraine with those colors. That is clearly a faded rainbow flag symbol, for gay support. I don’t see how a politically active person living in the US would not be able to tell the difference.
Back in comment @13,712 Prestons English language skills are so poor he does not comprehend the meaning of simple words like IF, COULD, MAYBE, etc. THey all denote this was not a promise, only a willingness to consider something like a promise. What a Cockwoble, see Preston’s definition of this word in #13,749, I like it as more accurate for him than melon.
I’m baaaack.
