Attack On Europe: Documenting Russian Equipment Losses During The 2022 Russian Invasion Of Ukraine (2 year anniversary)

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.

🔥👀 Destroyed Russian Buk-M1

The attack was carried out using an FPV drone. The nuance is that "Buk" was destroyed 20 km south of Melitopol and about 100 km from the frontline.

...20 km south of Melitopol and about 100 km from the frontline...

Drone?

I’ve found a YT video on the Chinese J-20 in real world performance against other fighters - are you interested?

Please post the YT link.

Another video rates the Chinese 003 Fujian (their latest - using electromagnetic catapults) as a good candidate for a display only museum piece. It does not compare favorably with the US Kittyhawk class from 60 years ago. 🤣 🤣

reaching critical mass

“Ukraine can carry out strikes on the territory of Russia, with the weapons transferred by Canada. Since Canada did not talk about any conditions for the transfer of weapons to Kyiv, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Canada, Melanie Joly said during a press conference.”

Critical Mass

“To combat Russia’s advances in Ukraine, President Biden is considering two tough new countermeasures: punishing China for supplying key technology to Moscow and lifting limits on Ukrainian use of U.S. short-range weapons to attack inside Russia.

These moves would represent a significant escalation of Biden’s carefully calibrated policy of supporting Ukraine while seeking to avoid direct confrontation with Russian President Vladimir Putin or his key ally, China’s Xi Jinping. The fact that such moves are being considered now shows the administration’s growing concern about Ukraine’s vulnerability on the battlefield.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken telegraphed a tougher stance after recent visits to Beijing and Kyiv. While in Beijing, he told the BBC in late April that China was “helping fuel the biggest threat to Europe” since the fall of the Soviet Union and indicated that the United States was weighing new sanctions against Chinese companies and financial institutions.

Blinken then visited Kyiv and heard firsthand accounts of Russia’s recent gains near Kharkiv and elsewhere in eastern Ukraine. What he heard worried him enough that he urged administration colleagues to re-examine the prohibition on Ukraine firing American artillery and short-range missiles into Russia, U.S. officials told me and, separately, other journalists.”

Yes, threaten him...

“Xi has maintained his own balancing act since Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, less than three weeks after he and Putin had declared a “no limits” partnership. China publicly called for a cease-fire, but Putin pleaded for weapons. They were ready for delivery when Biden called Xi to warn him that the United States would respond — drawing what officials told me was an angry riposte from Xi asking whether Biden was threatening him.”

Now the ‘quadbikes’

“A Russian assault crew on a quadbike was hit by grenades from above. Somewhat later a final blow was dealt by FPV.”

I have a feeling Poland and Ukraine will be NATOs key European countries in the future.

“Poland allowed Ukraine to use weapons supplied by it for attacks on the territory of the Russian Federation, Deputy Minister of Defense Cezary Tomczyk said on the Polish radio ZET. “

Blow them up and burn them down.

“Russia’s oil refineries are proving highly vulnerable to Ukrainian drone attacks, and the domestic oil and gas sector faces a formidable challenge as Kyiv’s ambitions and capability increase, industry and defense sources in and outside Russia have said.”

The RuZZian Domino Theory

Actually, I think it has some credence.

“””Look at what is happening in Kazakhstan today in terms of building a kind of Kazakh state, at national mythology about independence and the transition to the Latin script is blossoming.” - Russian MP Petr Tolstoy is already predicting a future Russian conflict with Kazakhstan and other CIS countries.”

RuZZia is a declining power. The West needs to manage that decline.

“Lavrov blames the West for wanting to isolate Russia and prevent its development.”

and now Jet Skis?

“The 🇺🇦Ukrainian 79th Border Guard Detachment destroys 🇷🇺Russian invaders on a water scooter which they used to move along the Dnipro river.”

Its a Drone World and we’re just living in it

“The Basement, where 🇷🇺Russian soldiers had their position and were gathering for the assault, was destroyed by a precision strikes by FPV drone of the 47th Mech. Brigade”

Well, a different Speedy

““Do you know how many Russian soldiers were there? It was Himars” - this is how local people comment on Donetsk cotton.
