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. Small arms, ATGMs, MANPADS, loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles, trailers 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 the origin of a piece of equipment can't be established, it is 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

Range is only 24 miles - they will lose some.
Another post showed him-made bombs mounted on drones. It reminds me-we need more tank kill videos. The drone might need to be separate and more up close.
One good thing has come from this war. Comrade Xi has duly noted what has happened to the once vaunted Russian army. He now knows that if he tries to invade Taiwan across 90 miles of open ocean with his combat inexperience army of one child soldiers armed with locally untested aircraft, ships and equipment, there is no guarantee of success if the people of Taiwan fight with grit. Failure would be extremely unpleasant for Comrade Xi, his family and sycophants. There will be many threats and bluster such as is now happening with Pelosi, but no actual invasion or shooting.
Why don’t you tell us how well we are doing in Afghanistan under Biden?
Ukraine has access to virtually unlimited supplies from NATO + Japan + Australia etc.
In this war of attrition, Ukraine has the upper hand.

Thoughts on why the significant drop off in June?
Running out of targets / ammo / ???
Is PIF even up yet? What a pathetic attempt to pump up your thread numbers.
There is no such thing on FR, Filthy Reptilian, as thread numbers.
And then why does your comment have the number 28 next to it?
“ Thoughts on why the significant drop off in June?”
I think it was because of the change in tactics by the Russians. Early on, they threw their mechanized and armored forces at Ukrainian positions, because they were under political pressure to achieve quick gains of territory.
After the May 9th Russian Victory Day (political deadline), they seem to have reassessed, and decided to let the Military proceed more as they saw fit. By June, Russian forces were advancing along a smaller front, and relying on Artillery to do the job, rather than Armor.
The MLRS MARS II from Germany is a somewhat heavier version of the American M270 tracked MLRS.
Both of them, and the lighter truck mounted HIMARS, can interchangeably fire the same rockets, like NATO standard 155mm howitzers can all fire the same NATO standard Artillery rounds. By design specification, to be able to interoperate, and supply each other.
So all those rocket launchers have the same range and firepower as HIMARS.
Reality check yourself ....

Okay I see how it links to photos. A bit disquieting that the early march links often have no snow on the ground.
More disquieting that there are no satellite images of precise positions. Aren’t the Russian vehicles also supposed to have a Z or V on them? Not some. All.
Go eat your Borschit, Dirty RuZZian

God Bless you, Speedy, don’t change.
