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.

I would suggest that as bad as this is, it is better to figure it out now. If the Russians can jam them, I imagine the Chinese can as we.
War always creates measures and countermeasures. The ones that can overcome first and adapt better will have more success. I know capt obvious
Seems like the talk of moving capital is some kind of operation to rally citizens to the cause, though it still confuses me.
Ukraine is not about to make major moves on Moscow, certainly not to the extent that much damage would be done
Moving the capital would seem like a sign of weakness and desperation, but what do I know. The Russian mind is a very odd thing
Hopefully the dropping of restrictions on US weapons in Russian territory will be announced by massive attacks on equipment and infrastructure across Russia but in particular the northern section
If reports are correct the Russians have lots of equipment and supplies just inside the border and their locations are known.
Hit them before they have the ability to disperse

ATACMS Obliterates Russian Air Defense System As It Desperately Tries To Defend Itself
The video shows the vain efforts of the Russian S300/S400 to engage incoming ATACMS missiles, before being spectacularly knocked out.

I am a bit confused on the negative outlook on glsdbs. Of course I have no knowledge on the subject but would seem if some systems work, there should be away to incorporate that kind of guidance is this system
Curious what is different between the two guidance systems, if air launched appears to be effective
Made by Boing Boing - no telling what the difference is or if they will ever fix the problem; the still haven’t fixed their plane problems - a company in steep decline under terrible management.
SDB and GLSDB are identical and share a GPS/IMU set. The relevant differences are range and target selection.

The article at the link above blames INS drift.
Here's a post from another blogger:
Could be that the SDB is getting its initial position from the launch platform or starts using its own GPS receiver on takeoff, so the IMU is initialized at launch. GLSDB maybe doesn't get a fix until it's in the air at high altitude where jamming is bad.
This is what I believe...When launched from an aircraft the SDB IMU gets accurate position information from the launch aircraft.
My guess is that HIMARs launchers do not pass position information to the GLSDB. The GLSDB gets its initial position, after launch, from GPS which may already be jammed.
It's the 8th Su-25 destroyed by the 110th Brigade.
Glory!
Waiting for official confirmation

Kremlin snuff box, 05/24/24
https://t.me/s/kremlin_secrets
The NATO Secretary General proposed striking Russia. Belousov is already facing serious claims that NATO will allow the Kiev regime to use Western weapons on all Russian territories ( not only Crimea and new regions ). We warned just the other day [ https://t.me/kremlin_secrets/4143 ]. Everything, unfortunately, is confirmed at a completely official level.
Sources in the General Staff and the Ministry of Defense claim that we have serious plans in the event of such a threat. And they even promise to tell us soon how we will punish the Americans and their accomplices for such impudence.
At the same time, many military personnel are worried that our response may not be effective. “We played with internal squabbles, persecution of generals and redistribution of power in the Ministry of Defense.
“Threats are growing, and generals who really know how to fight are going to jail. Many are simply due to internal squabbles. It’s impossible not to remember, for example, General Popov,” [ https://t.me/kremlin_secrets/4133 ] an officer close to General Mikhail Teplinsky told us.
Another high-ranking military officer made a serious attack on Andrei Belousov.
“I understand that thieves need to be imprisoned. But now every general is worth his weight in gold. Have we already won the SVO? Or is the Minister of Defense waiting for NATO missiles to arrive in Moscow, and only then will he begin to set priorities correctly? I don’t understand,” he said.
We asked people from Belousov’s circle to comment on these claims. But they said they did not want to respond to those who “resist real change and do not want a real strengthening of our army.”
