Fantastic drone footage has emerged showing the remarkable courage and tactics of a single Ukrainian tank, which successfully ambushed a whole column of Russian armoured vehicles
The convoy fired rounds into nearby buildings and also directed fire across neighbouring fields, seemingly at targets off camera, but the lone Ukrainian tank remained hidden as it continued to pound the invaders with shells, ultimately destroying two vehicles
Military historian Frederick Kagan says he knows of no parallel to a major military power like Russia invading a country at the time of its choosing and failing so utterly.

What video game is it from?
He was shooting between buildings so they couldn’t tell where the fire was coming from......................
The drone taking the video also functions as an excellent artillery spotter.
Home court advantage coupled with real time drone and satellite intel is powerful advantage.
Russian are pretty stupid?
The Russians apparently have no idea how to protect armored personnel carriers in a convoy.
Nothing good ever happens during convoy duty...
Daily Mail propaganda is always good for a laugh.
You soil yourself but the mindless trolls will love it.
All Part of Putin’s Plan©️. Forcing the Ukrainian forces to use up all their ammo on untrained conscripts before Pooty-Poot sends in the hardened reserve on a fleet of hypersonic missiles.
Aside from the flowery narrative, it seems that the Russian convoy’s plan is just to push through this “ambush.”
That doesn’t seem very smart. Does no one “flank” any more?
While that tank in in a pretty good fighting position, it has to be rough on the women and children in the associated houses.
foreign invadors have no match in sheer will power against defenders under an existential threat to their homeland
The Heart of Ukraine
Ukrainian support - Do you hear the people sing?!?

The Putin - Xi Freeper wing crushed.
- Despite element of surprise, ccd, and a flank position, the UA tank crew knew they were far outgunned, with a good chance they were not going home. Bravery and willing self sacrifice here.
- Russian tracer rounds clearly reveal disorientation to UA contact/target.
- Unable to see UA contact, bit realizing they were in ambush, line armor should have “broken off” with intent to regroup. Yah, you are in a village, but this is near amazing to me.
- In TaC, not knowing the position of UA fire, at least two rear elements of armor should have broken off and performed a type of enveloping flank (sweep).
- Potential fear of getting off hardball involved (mud), which has been a real and terminal problem for Putin’s offensive land and energy grab to present. Some reason for not going with the basics involved.
As an old IA, this was real.
Amazing footage.
