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.

Would be strategic, guess they found resources to divert from attacking cities and farm fields
Many say the Russians take time to adapt, we will see
Russia attacked the storm shadow base several weeks ago at night and I think they had partial success. Then they wasted a bunch of missiles attacking Odesa grain silos and docks which was a Putin temper tantrum. I think Ukraine was prepared for the air base attacks today but we’ll know if there are more storm shadow launches soon. I just don’t understand why Russia attacked the airbases in the daytime. Just weird.
Brandon won’t give ground launched ATACMS so Ukraine has to jump hoops to air launch storm shadows. It’s a huge waste of valuable air frames and danger having to air launch all these storm shadow deoccupation operations instead of just rolling out ATACMS and launching.

So what is the “ice water” ?
That a Russian invasion has caused injury and death to Ukrainians and…..
Wrong, this is a war between evil and evil.
On one side we have a guy who murders his political opponents. On the other we have a slimy, gay-dancing, grifting actor who is a puppet to the WEF/UN/EU/Scumocrat Party and RINOs and is rabidly supported by every single individual and entity which is pushing unlimited abortion, the vile LGBTQWERTY agendas, the mutilation and sexualization of children, the vilification of Whites, Christians and heterosexual men.
It exalts in degeneracy, corruption and totalitarian censorship. That group of scumbags is also part of the crew which stole the 2020 election, installing a hyper-corrupt potato in place of the real winner.
And let's be honest, Youcrayne is a hyper-corrupt sort-of-country which has been the European center of child trafficking and the "elite's" money laundering playground for years.
Not one more cent of US taxpayers' money for Youcrayne. Let them slug it out with Russia by themselves. Both countries have been at each others' throats for decades. Their circus, not ours.
Those losses, and the fact that Youcrayne;s infrastructure is being systematically demolished, means that this must all end now, regardless of what the Deep State and their supporting actors want.
And no, I don't want to hear that bullshit that "this will end when Russia withdraws blablabla," because that will not happen.
No, Ukrainians are not being “absolutely slaughtered”. They are brave men fighting for their country and just as in our war for independence, the cost is high. You are an apeasenik who supports rewarding the criminal invaders.
The city of Kherson has been liberated and the citizens there are indisputably grateful to be free from Russian occupiers. Let’s see what else can be liberated if we get serious about providing some worthy aid to Ukraine.
Welcome to the thread always nice to see a new name on FR
appreciate your comments and slurs.
You may not want to hear it but the solution is for Russia to withdraw, but you know that and act like that is not an option and the only way to stop this is for UKRAINIANS to surrender and that is up to them.
BTW Russians are losing a shed load, you don’t activate 60 year olds and run to North Korea and Iran if things are going swimmingly
but you know that as well
While the rhetorical salvos fly back and forth across only two threads each day -- one posting in seconds, and one pretending to prayerfulness -- it is certain that this war between non-NATO Ukraine and non-NATO Russia ( and so a proxy was between NATO and non-NATO Russia ) is not being won clearly as yet by NATO. Why? The fighting continues, as Western war materiel sources are being depleted against a foe which was supposed to have been "a gas station pretending to be a country."
The monetized "mother-promoted" YouTuber takes in more in donations than does Free Republic, as YouTube data shows, and so what is demonstrably true is that the cottage industries which have sprung up around this war in daily rhetorical salvos is, like the military-indusrial complex of which Eisenhower warned, simply about money. And as I see it, open therapy for those who need it desperately.
What is without disagreement is that in the US, some veterans are in greater need of help than our government cares to give, and other veterans are being displaced in some cities to "make way" for migrants pouring across the southern border. None of these sorts of concerns concern those who avid to cheer the continuing loss of materiel and lives in a non-NATO war deeply involving NATO.
The larger frame of funding the billions being used is piling on to the rapidly increasing $32 trillion dollar debt which our kids and grandkids will be paying. But "yeah Ukraine" emotionally satisfies in these threads, because believing in the current Biden-led government is no longer an issue for some conservatives. Consent has been manufactured, public relations has triumphed, and the lock step march continues uncritical of the fiscal mess at home. Because -- "yeah, Ukraine." It just feels so-o-o good.
For now. The bill will be presented later, after the "tip" and"fees" are added on. For a circus not mine, and for clowns not mine. And as Robinson has written, "a controversial foreign war where we were not attacked."
But one finds they are after all someone's circus and someone's clowns. Let the clown salvos continue! They have no effect on what is really happening. Ergo my view that these threads are emotional open therapy.
I don't give a damn about either country. and neither do the vast majority of Americans. There's too much to worry about in America right now. Let those two crapholes slug it out with each other on their own as they've been doing' off and on, for a century now.
I loathe both countries. Let them slug it out between themselves as they've been doing for a century now. No more US taxpayers' money for the child trafficking, money laundering, Nazi-infested craphole that Youcrayne is.
The LMUR has an optical/thermal imaging seeker, with 2 launch modes.
In the first one, the target is marked by the operator before launch, and the carrier helicopter can turn away directly after the missile launch.
In the second mode, the missile is launched without it being locked on a target.
It first flies in its direction, using inertial guidance with satellite navigation providing corrections.
The image from the seeker is transmitted back to the helicopter via a datalink pod.
The operator can select the target and change it while the missile is flying towards its area.
The LMUR is the first Russian ATGM capable of being used in this fashion.
This second mode of operation is the only one in which the missile can be used at its maximum range, due to the seeker's limitations.
You claim to not give a damn about either country but you spend hours on these threads slamming Ukraine. And you don’t give a flip about the taxpayers’ money or you would be attacking so-called welfare instead of Ukraine’s five percent of the defense budget.
Here is a fact for you. Ukrainians in the temporarily occupied areas are not going to give up. There will NEVER be peace in Russian controlled Ukraine. The sooner the criminals are kicked out, the sooner peace will reign.
Joe left Americans behind, and got 13 Marines killed by withdrawing from Aghanistan, so he could fund a war in Ukraine.
No FIRMS fires at the Storm Shadow air base this time. Last attack a month or so ago, FIRMS showed fires at certain areas of the base.
Do you also “loathe” the Americans in Texas who now have good jobs shipping American energy to Europe? Or are do you, like Brandon, hope to cut American energy production?
By any objective measure Ukraine is still Ukraine. It should be no surprise to see a Quisling fifth column in the west cheering on the Kremlin’s latest colonialist wars of choice. They’ve always been among us and rooting for America’s enemies. Shame on them.
Of course not, but I sure do loathe the American scumbag politicians and bureaucrats, the EU, the WEF and all the other vile "elitist" individuals and .orgs who forbade a negotiated end to the war and instead boycotted Russian energy and sent Youcrayne weapons and cash, causing EU energy costs to go absolutely exponential thereby impoverishing millions of Europeans. I currently live in Europe (Italy), so I know how badly everyday folks and businesses of all sizes are being crushed by this.
And of course, I utterly despise the American and European "elites" like the Romneys, Bidens, Pelosis and Kerrys, who have added to their mostly ill-gotten fortunes via the grift and influence peddling "jobs" they and their filthy spawn have gotten in Youcrayne.
By your statement it is clear that you are happy that some people, besides the aforementioned filth, are benefiting from the misery of both Youcraynians and Europeans.
Ugh. . .
