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. Loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles 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 a vehicle is captured and then lost in service with its new owners, it is only added as a loss of the original operator to avoid double listings. When the origin of a piece of equipment can't be established, it's 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.

I just LOVE clicking on the door knob’s screen name these days... 😉😂😂
I’ve noticed that we aren't subjected to your bullsqueeze and rabid hate-posting any more, door knob - ever since you rode the lightning...
“stunning and brave” Kaja Kallas...
The AI bot mucus is missing in action, too.
“And just like that, all the Ukie shills are gone...”
I did Nazi this coming about the first president of the Commission of the European Economic Community and one of the founding fathers of the Europeein’ Union...

I read the complete article linked at the bottom about this event involving Estonia and Russian Foxhound planes. Several plane photos are shown. Apparently Russian planes have been regularly entering the airspace of Baltic countries for much of the Cold War. The air forces of these countries have made it a point to ALWAYS show the Russians that their presence is known and not welcome. This time Estonia decided to show them a thing or two (or not). Actually they used NATO’s highly developed secret tracking and approaching methods to creep right up on the planes and suddenly announce that they were now under the NATO country’s control. Russia scrammed out of Estonian air space like scared rabbits. The methods developed are described in detail at the link.
Here is the impression this info made on the article’s author. “I’m going to be honest and say I was thrilled when I was shown how this was done, genuinely excited at how things have progressed and at the same time how little credit NATO and its organizations and members get for having quietly kept working towards ensuring the peace, while staying on top of the future of air combat.
I was equally moved by the fact that we don’t see what happens behind the scenes often enough. It was made public that the Russians had been told informally that threats of a shoot down scenario if they carried on with these provocations, are now very real and not just the words of an idle threat. It was backed up with the very real message NATO could achieve this and they would barely even know about it. All Russia has to do is ask its Foxhound pilots.
Russia understands only strength. NATO demonstrated it has the will and the capability. Quad erat demonstrandum Valdimir.”
I hope that our President is fully informed about this successful eviction of the aggressive Russians. I’m sure he has questioned NATO’s dedication to defense business in the past and is now learning the seriousness of their current intent. I was wondering if it would be possible to force one of these planes to land on threat of being shot down? Perhaps that is why there were several of them, specifically to prevent any wayward Russian pilot from bolting to freedom? In the past were there always several at one time, or are several planes at once a development of the Ukraine war?
NATO now outproduces Russia for Artillery shells. North Korea has cut deep into their reserves, and are getting down to shooting their wad:
North Korea halves shell shipments to Russia as its own stockpiles run low
Kyiv Post (15 Nov):
“Pyongyang has cut its artillery shell shipments to Russia by more than half in 2025 due to dwindling stockpiles, Vadym Skibitskyi, deputy head of Ukraine’s military intelligence agency (HUR), told Reuters on Nov. 14.
North Korean artillery ammunition enabled Russia to maintain its firing rate in 2024, but this year, that support has declined markedly, with both the quantity and quality of munitions delivered to the Kremlin significantly reduced.
In 2023, North Korea supplied Russia with about 6.5 million artillery shells from its stockpiles, taking the opportunity to strengthen ties with Moscow following the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Skibitskyi told Reuters.
Yet no shipments were recorded in September, though some were tracked in October, according to Ukraine’s military intelligence.
Skibitskyi added that roughly half of the shells arriving from Pyongyang were so poorly maintained that they had to be sent to Russian factories for refurbishing.”
Another night, another Russian oil refinery in flames (Ryazan).
Kyiv Independent (15 Nov):
“Ukrainian forces struck an oil refinery in the Russian city of Ryazan and hit several other military targets in Russian-occupied territories, Ukraine’s General Staff reported on Nov. 15...
...The local oil refinery was struck, with explosions and a large fire breaking out at the facility, according to Ukraine’s General Staff.
The Ryazan oil refinery produces gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, liquefied gases, and other petroleum products. It manufactures about 840,000 tons of TS-1 aviation fuel annually, which is used by Russia’s Aerospace Forces, the General Staff said.
Ukrainian forces also struck a Nebo-U radar station in Russian-occupied Crimea, a military train near Tokmak in occupied Zaporizhzhia Oblast, and a concentration of Russian personnel near Vovchansk in occupied Kharkiv Oblast...
...Russian oil product exports dropped by 17.1% in September compared to August, totaling 7.58 million tons, due to ongoing Ukrainian drone attacks, according to Reuters.”
Good news for pro-Americans is that not only are we and our global allies vasty recovering our weapon manufacturing mojo, we are also greatly improving commonality of the ammo and weapons we all produce.
Another thing brought home to us from the Russian/North Korean European war, is that while our weapons and ammo are mostly interchangeable per the rules, they still have/had many slight variances which we needed to improve.
More than a dozen explosions and widespread fire at the Ryazan Oil Refinery last night.
Kyiv Post (15 Nov):
“The head of the Unmanned Systems Forces (USF), Robert “Madyar” Brovdi, also confirmed the strike on the Ryazan Oil Refinery, writing on Telegram:
“The Ryazan Oil Refinery (Rosneft) was pecked by the USF Birds early on the morning of Nov. 15. It’s a producer of jet fuel and TS-1 aviation kerosene - about 8% of total output in the ‘swamps’ [Russia] - as well as gasoline and diesel of all grades.”...
... He added that gasoline is becoming increasingly scarce in Russia - and that both gas and oil “burn very easily.”
Russian media reported more than a dozen explosions at the refinery, while videos circulating online showed a glow, fire, and heavy smoke.”
“Novorossiysk Oil Teminal (Shekaris) offline. It shipped 25% of Russia’s seaborne crude.”
This one needs to be hit each time it gets patched together with parts n baling wire. The Novorossiysk population is 262,293, this city is heavily militarized, so Russia may have good solid defenses for it.
Excuse me Dimwit, have you seen adorno or ftrpilot? How about marcusmaximus? Speedo in Texas?
LOL Speedo in Texas LOL
Wha happen to mucus? Wha mucus doink?
Haven’t read the article but it seems to me of the secret tracking and approach methods are detailed as the gleeful author notes, then the Russian know them and will find counters - so much for that ‘secret’.
😂😂😂😂

I didn't know that rancid POS was missing. Talk about well earned :P marcus too. The USAID money must have dried up.
A topic you have no grasp of or real interest in.
“...so Russia may have good solid defenses for it.” (Novorossisyk)
They tried.
Russia’s top of the line S-400 Air Defense System around Novorossisyk was part of their losses.
Lots of hits, and big explosions there.
