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.

“The Battle of Kursk is Ukraine’s Battle of the Bulge.”
I thought it was the Bay of Pigs?
You are too funny RuZZian Boy!
Russian glide bombs are a problem.
Kyiv Independent reports:
“Ukrainian long-range drones hit four Russian airbases overnight on Aug. 14 in the largest attack on airfields in the war, a source in the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) told the Kyiv Independent.
Earlier the same day, Russia claimed it had downed over 110 Ukrainian drones in a massive strike, with local Telegram channels reporting explosions at the Savasleyka, Borisoglebsk, and Voronezh’s Baltimore airbases.
The SBU source confirmed the attacks against the three aforementioned airbases and said an airbase in Kursk had also been targeted...
…The large-scale drone attack was carried out by the SBU in cooperation with the Air Force, Special Operation Forces, Unmanned Systems Forces, and military intelligence agency (HUR), the source revealed to the Kyiv Independent.
The goal was to prevent Russia from using the airbases to strike Ukrainian military positions and settlements with KAB bombs. The consequences of the attacks are being determined, the source added.
“We are waiting for satellite photos of destroyed Russian fighters and warehouses,” the source said.
The Kyiv Independent could not verify the claims.
Russian Telegram channels reported 10 explosions at the Savasleyka airbase in Nizhny Novgorod Oblast, which hosts Kinzhal missile carriers, MiG-31K.
Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty published NASA satellite imagery that seems to confirm fires near the Savasleyka and Baltimore airbases. Russian Telegram channels also shared multiple videos capturing flying drones and air defense fire in Voronezh and Nizhny Novgorod oblasts.
The village of Savasleyka is located some 650 kilometers (400 miles) from the border with Ukraine, while Baltimore and Borisoglebsk in Voronezh Oblast lie 180 and 260 kilometers (110 and 160 miles) from the Ukrainian border, respectively.
The Kursk airfield, also known as Khalino Airbase, hosts MiG-29 fighter jets and lies around 95 kilometers (60 miles) from Ukraine.”
“For weeks, the newly elected Polish government was apparently struggling to make a decision. In Poland, the construction of the Nord Stream pipelines was considered a sin, and a suspected saboteur like Wladimir S. would be a hero from this perspective. Polish politicians have repeatedly made similar statements behind closed doors. The German government was unsure until the very end how the Poles would deal with the arrest warrant. Could a “hero” like him really be extradited? Or would Wladimir S. simply disappear at some point? S. says on the phone that this is “the first time he has heard of the suspicion against him.” Was he involved in the attack? “No.” Then the call ends.”
“Reportedly, footage of Ukrainian drones attacking a Russian airfield “Savasleika” in Nizhniy Novgorod. Russian soldiers thought they hit the drone, but it still seems to have fallen close to a parked aircraft.”

“The 92nd Separate Mechanized Brigade, the 43rd Artillery Brigade, and other Ukrainian military units successfully repelled an assault on Lyptsi. In the battle, they destroyed four tanks, damaged four more, destroyed two infantry fighting vehicles, and damaged one vehicle.”

“The latest attempt by Russian forces to assault the Kurakhove direction has failed once again. The Russian army launched an attack with two armored vehicles carrying troops under the cover of a tank. During the battle, the tank and one armored vehicle were destroyed, while another was taken out by the 72nd Mechanized Brigade. Six Russian soldiers were killed, and 12 were wounded.”

Alaudinov and “Akhmat” angered the military. They are accused of the deaths of at least 40 of our soldiers
Discontent among many military personnel was caused by the words of Apti Alaudinov that the enemy does not control Sudzha, as well as the actions of the Akhmat special forces in the Kursk region.
“The disrespected Alaudinov sets everyone up when he talks nonsense about Sudzha has already been broadcast by the enemy video from the city on many channels.
“We don’t need to lie about Sudzha, but to win it back. But Alaudinov, it seems, is not about war, but about conversations. I’ve heard about this for a long time, but now I’m convinced,” the officer said, who is opposing the invasion of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Kursk region, was indignant.
There are more serious claims against Alaudinov and his fighters.
“Because of the cowardice of Akhmat, at least 40 of our military personnel died in the Kursk region. And not only conscripts in the first days of the invasion. I can’t disclose all the information, but several times the Chechens fled the battlefield. Shame and disgrace!” - a source in the General Staff was indignant in a conversation with us.
According to him, “there was an order from above not to disclose information about the betrayal of Akhmat. But I can’t bear it anymore.”
According to our information, more than 24 officers are preparing an appeal to Vladimir Putin with a request to remove Akhmat from the Kursk region and conduct an investigation into the actions of its fighters, commanders, and Alaudinov personally. The President will receive it in the coming days.
Those around Alaudinov responded to these claims with the words: “They are simply jealous of us. Let them first learn to fight themselves, and then complain.” The general’s associates declined to make any other comments.

A refusenik shot three colleagues in the Kursk region
A serious emergency occurred in the Rylsky district of the Kursk region. There, a serviceman shot three colleagues with a burst from a machine gun. It is reported that he was one of those who had previously refused to fight ( the so-called “refuseniks” ). He was transferred near Kursk two days ago and sent to the border zone along with other such refuseniks.
Sources do not say what caused the conflict. There is information that the serviceman had mental problems, and it was for this reason that he refused to participate in hostilities.
We will not assess a specific case, but it is obvious that the army is not working with personnel. In conditions of war, one cannot refuse to defend one’s homeland. Or they failed to convey this idea to a specific military man.
Waiting for the cutoff of the Russian rail line to Gomel Belarus…

Nordstream is 51% Gazprom owned, so it is definitely Russian, and a legitimate target. In fact, the attack forced much of Europe to align with Trump's strategy of reducing dependence on Russian gas, and the USA was right there to fulfill the Euro's demands.
Funny, but all the usual trolls assured us last year that it was US Navy Divers that destroyed the pipeline. Seymour Hersch said so! Of course, these same trolls claimed over 2 years ago the war was in the "mopping up" phase, as reported by all the same pro-Russia sources they still believe.
These new drones terminal maneuver is a sudden dive into the target. The Russians probably saw the drone suddenly start dropping and thought they caused it. They were wrong.
