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.

True. Communism was sold as the idea that the workers would essentially run their own factories and share in the profits.
The reality was, all factories were run by Moscow with any profits sent back to the Central government.
Thank you for your comment. I read the other day that in our latest tranche of among other things, 155 mm howitzer rounds something like 150,000... that seems like a giant number, unless they’re just firing them off into the ocean.
We will see what the winter brings, but I have no expectation of this war being brief.
Take 15K and divide by ~3000 which gives you the number of days those rounds will last the UA at current rate. Triple that rate for the Russians
Let me do the math another way. How many of those howitzers do you think we have shipped to ukraine? I will take a completely random guess at 155 of them. A number I have no more idea if that is true then the man in the moon. Do those howitzers have a 1,000 round Barrel life?
Apparently, they have a 1500 round barrel life. And can probably be used beyond that at lower accuracy.
“Today, during the day, on the direct instructions of V. Zelensky, Ukrainian troops attempted an offensive in the Mykolaiv and Kherson regions in three directions.
As a result of the active defense of the grouping of Russian troops, the AFU units suffered heavy losses.
During the fighting, 26 Ukrainian tanks, 23 infantry fighting vehicles, nine other armored combat vehicles were destroyed, two Su-25 attack aircraft were shot down.
The enemy’s losses in manpower amounted to more than 560 servicemen. Another attempt at offensive actions of the enemy failed miserably.” - RuMoDsaid
1500 round barrel life

That was the number of troops not artillery barrel life.
Go eat your Borschit, Dirty RuZZian
Truth will set you free, Nazi supporter. Bet.
Have no idea what the barrel life is of a M777, even less of an idea on SPGs like the Krabs, Caesars, Phz-2000s or Zuzanas. Longer than the Soviet era artillery likely, which is what the Orcs are using except for half dozen modernized pieces.
Although I think there was a complaint that the German 2000s wore out after 1000 firings or so and became useless until fixed.
For all your globalist warmongering needs, turn to George Soros. (also sponsored by Pfizer)

If you want on or off this list, please let me know.
Leftist virtue-signaling spam. Go to any moonbat neighborhood to see that alongside the rainbow flag of faggery. All hail Sodomy ! All hail their globalist Soros overlord ! Right, Sleazy ?
Borschit for dinner?
Not at all, sir. We have a serious leftist globalist trollbot spam problem on FR, and Sleazy is only one of several causing enormous divisions and dissension here. This one is not a serious poster, and encourages mass-murder of Russian citizens. A genocidal troll has no business being on a serious, Conservative website.
Problem is the alternative is very hard to find
It’s suppressed vigorously
My own experience is the Russian side has much higher veracity which is pathetic
Russia
Has been fairly open on deployments artillery numbers and losses and casualties
Ukraine has let go limited numbers of their losses and has focused on propaganda about Russias losses which defy truth
Likewise I’ve watched 100s of videos of Donbas and Luhansk survivors who squarely blame ukrop forces as a rule
They cannot all be lying or staged
Nor do they appear so especially when pat lancaster gets to the home minutes after a loved one has been killed by artillery
And that doesn’t count small arms atrocities by ukrop drive by militias
The Soros gang here simply doesn’t care
How do u discuss reason with folks believe Putin is the same commie as Brezhnev
Only thing in common is both are autocrats
