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.

A Typhon launcher carries four Tomahawks. Currently, two Batteries are operational (four launchers per Battery), and a third Battery is fielding - so 12 Typhons, able to fire a salvo of 48 Tomahawks. Three more Batteries are on order, for delivery over the next two years.
A fleet of 448 BGM-109G launchers (4 Tomahawks each) were actively deployed, before the system was de-commissioned in the 1990’s.
Naval News reported (13 Oct 2025): “Oshkosh Defense unveiled its Family of Multi-Mission Autonomous Vehicles (FMAV) at AUSA (Association of the US Army) 2025 this week, teeing up another potential launch platform for Tomahawk cruise missiles... showcased as production-ready systems to “support the Army’s priorities in long-range precision fires, resilient formations, and scalable autonomy,” according to Oshkosh.
The family is split into three vehicles. The largest is the Extreme Multi-Mission Autonomous Vehicle (X-MAV), capable of supporting “the future of long-range munitions”. The X-MAV is on display at AUSA 2025 with four Tomahawk missiles, matching the payload of the U.S. Army’s existing Typhon missile launchers which have been subject to criticism for lack of mobility in austere environments.”
And here is a little gem from an AI:
“The U.S. Marine Corps had between four and eight Long Range Fires (LRF) launchers in service as of mid-2025, with plans to expand the fleet to 56 by 2028. However, the program has since been canceled, and the existing launchers are being repurposed...
...If a decision is made to transfer Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine, the availability of these launchers may not pose a significant obstacle, as surplus launchers could be repurposed.”
“I agree that Ukraine is unlikely to get Tomahawk, at least not in any numbers. There are other systems we are more likely to provide.”
After the last meeting between President’s Trump and Zelensky at the White House, where Tomahawks were requested, the Ukrainian Ambassador to the USA alluded to just that, and said “soon”.
Thanks for all the launchers info!
“All that said, I agree that Ukraine is unlikely to get Tomahawk, at least not in any numbers. There are other systems we are more likely to provide.”
With so much Trump Tomahawk talk, perhaps this is to distract from lesser missiles that are being stealthily supplied to Ukraine via NATO. These lessers are still very good, so just launch 2-3 to equal one Tomahawk payload size. All KABOOMS are same to Russian oil refineries.
And those regions with higher birth rates will also be the first to leave Russia, along with China taking eastern petro regions. Russia will return to its wooden hut, swampland historical status
Just a bad memory in dusty history books and pitin will be the reason.
No people, no wealth, no economy
“With so much Trump Tomahawk talk, perhaps this is to distract from lesser missiles that are being stealthily supplied”
It really complicates Russian defense planning, with their limited number of Air Defense systems. Tomahawks range puts a lot of targets at risk simultaneously.
If they can’t cover everything, then it is Whack-a-mole as some targets are left vulnerable.
All I know is that every day that Ukraine sanctions Russian oil refineries, is a great day. And blowing up their Siemans gas compressors gets me laughing.
Kyiv Post (28 Oct):
"President Volodymyr Zelensky said Ukraine plans to expand its long-range strike capabilities, hinting at future attacks deeper inside Russian territory and warning that Moscow’s oil industry will “pay even more” for the war...
...In a follow-up post, Zelensky linked Ukraine’s deep-strike strategy with international sanctions targeting Russia’s energy sector. “All deep-strike goals must be fully locked in by year’s end, including expansion of our long-range footprint,” he wrote...
...Bloomberg estimates that nearly one-third of Russia’s refining capacity has been affected.
The US under President Donald Trump has reportedly shared intelligence to help Kyiv target Russian oil sites in a covert effort to pressure Moscow into negotiations."
And separately from the Kyiv Post, also on 28 Oct:
"Ukraine has already used its new Flamingo and Ruta missiles in combat, and more strikes are planned soon, President Volodymyr Zelensky said during a meeting with journalists on Oct. 27...
...The Flamingo is a Ukrainian long-range missile unveiled in August, while the Ruta is categorized as a “drone-missile” that underwent testing in December 2024...
...By October, The Economist reported that Ukraine had begun using Flamingo missiles to strike targets inside Russia...
...Last week, Zelensky acknowledged production challenges with the Flamingo program but added that the state order would still be fulfilled... ...After meeting with the heads of Ukraine’s security and intelligence services, Ukraine’s President Zelensky said Ukraine is preparing new long-range strikes on key targets inside Russia...
Main characteristics of the Flamingo missile Fire Point’s Flamingo is a long-range, subsonic cruise missile designed to carry large warheads for deep strikes.
Range: Claimed >3,000 km (1,864 miles).
Speed and type: Subsonic cruise missile at 950 kilometers per hour (590 miles per hour).
Payload: ~1,150 kg (current warhead: bunker-busting, able to penetrate up to 10 m / 33 ft of concrete).
Darth Putin KGB:
Day 1346 of my 3 day war. Pokrovsk had a pre-war population of 60,000. I’ve lost 120,000 casualties to capture half of it.
I remain a master strategist.
My graduating class in 1956 was 4,000,000 approximately. 2024 was probably better than 2023 because the Covid fears had diminished and women who had been waiting from 2020 finally did not want to wait any longer.
I think both sides are trying to get in to tall condos to have the high ground advantage. Ukraine is certainly better with drones. I wonder how much better their snipers are. They should be if they are not the drunks so many Russian men become.
