“We obtained a image of a Russian 9A331M Tor-M2 AD system which was destroyed by a Ukrainian AGM-88 HARM recently. It exploded a few meters above the rear side of the vehicle, causing fire damage and destroying most electronic systems. No crew were seriously injured.

Interestingly, although the AGM-88 was spotted by the system’s radar prior to the hit, for some reason the target tracking system couldn’t fix on the missile. As the crew didn’t even realise it was intended for them, the radar was still turned on and the system was vulnerable.”

“I wouldn’t underestimate the level of resentment many Russian soldiers fighting in Ukraine will likely develop for senior leaders. Right when Russia’s offensive has stalled and Kyiv is getting better arms, Russia’s military is holding a tournament as if nothing else is happening.”

“Some Russian defense telegram channels are calling the ongoing dog and pony Army Games tournament a “mockery” of Russian soldiers fighting in Ukraine who lack many necessary capabilities/equipment. This competition is for who baked the best bread.”
