Wow. Do we have dedicated trucks like that to drop smoke on that level?

I have never seen anything like that. And it shuts down all drones and infrared guided missiles. That is amazing.

Ukraine ping

This is a 1 sq mile village, pop 800, Russia took near the beginning of the invasion and lost. For comparison, what Russia hasn’t managed in two years with this hamlet, Germany completed with respect to France, Belgium and Holland in 6 weeks, in a campaign where, unlike Russia, which has more equipment and men, Germany had rough hardware and manpower parity with its opponents.


https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilohorivka,_Luhansk_Oblast
[According to the Governor of Luhansk Oblast Serhiy Haidai, a school in Bilohorivka was bombed by a Russian airstrike on 7 May 2022, during the Russian invasion of Ukraine, where up to 60 people died, although only 2 were confirmed.[12][13] On 12 May 2022, a Russian battalion tactical group attempted to establish pontoon bridges to cross the Siverskyi Donets River. They were destroyed by Ukrainian forces, with great losses of life and equipment in the ensuing Battle of the Siverskyi Donets.[14][15][16][17][18] At the end of the battle of Lysychansk, Russia claimed to have captured Bilohorivka along with the rest of Luhansk Oblast.[19]

On 19 September 2022, it was confirmed that Ukrainian forces had regained full control over the settlement.[20] On 20 September 2022, Serhii Haidai, the head of the Luhansk Regional Military Administration, said that “Bilohorivka was Ukraine’s last stronghold in Luhansk Oblast. It was the area of constant heavy fighting. Our defenders have squeezed the invaders out and are in full control of the town. However, it is still under artillery fire. The town no longer exists because the invaders razed it to the ground.”[21]]


And this is before Ukraine’s air force is revived with a fresh supply of Western fighter planes that will make the lives of Russian CAS pilots much more complicated. In the past few months, Russian advances have been fueled by Russian JDAM clones dropped on Ukrainian positions. While costly in terms of airframes lost, they provided Russian ground forces with the momentum to make small advances. That momentum is about to go in reverse, as fresh Ukrainian jet fighters start returning the gesture.

Thanks, but...

Kindly expend the effort to post actual information or don’t mislead us with your headlines. It smacks of laziness.

if you go on youtube you can find video of all militaries, including years old videos of the Russians using smoke dispersal vehicles in exercises.

This is old, old, old stuff and was common in WWII and since.

Something about these smoke dischargers makes me think they are easy to spot.
