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.

Looks like mass missile attack from Russian aviation will still happen shortly.
South Padre might be a good place to watch starship. That is if the FAA allows it.
Zaporizhzhia city hit with 17 Russian S-300 missiles within 1 hour. Kharkiv hit by almost the same number of S-300s.
Interesting story here.
Ukraine Has Exactly One T-80UK Command Tank. It Just Fought A Dangerous Solo Battle Near Bakhmut.

I’m guessing Vuhledar is a large part of it.

Another reason is they have gone back to sending armored vehicles in columns - easy kills
Missiles?
The Ukrainian army has **captured exactly one Russian** T-80UK command tank that independent analysts have been able to confirm.
The Russians have thousands of S-300 missiles, but they are inaccurate for ground attack, even though they pack a non-trivial 200-300lb warhead (depending on which variant).
They can keep up sending occasional waves like that for years, but just as a terrorist tactic against the civilian population (a war crime), or to try to wear out Ukrainian Air Defenses/drive up costs. They are not going to take out the nation’s life support systems with those, like they threatened to do with their cruise missiles.
Those are old Soviet AA missiles repurposed for ground attack. A terror bombing campaign in the finest Russian tradition. Bombing women and children is all Russia can do at this point.
With Patriots due to arrive shortly, perhaps UKR is launching S-300 missiles in A/G mode.
As BeauBo notes in another post, S-300 warheads vary from 200 to 300 pounds.
I am not sure if Tochka U have the range to attack Berdyansk.

75 miles and there is supposed to be a Ukraine SRBM that can.
Besides there is nothing preventing a ship launched TochkaU
