The Russian military repelled several large-scale attacks by Kiev forces in the South Donetsk and Zaporozhye directions between July 22 and 23.
While repelling the attacks, the Russian military reportedly destroyed seven German-made Leopard 2 main battle tanks and American-made Bradly infantry fighting vehicles. Video footage that surfaced online did show at least three damaged or destroyed Leopard 2 tanks as well as a fourth Leopard 2 and a Bradly vehicle receiving direct hits from FPV suicide drones.

Vlad is hunting down the West’s wonder weapons with great efficiency.
“Be sure to see the videos, many discount Southfront, but their acquired geo- located videos speaks volumes of truth…..US Bradley’s, MRAPs, M113’s, Strykers, Leopards and more getting absolutely crushed.”
Well, was there any requirement for them to work in combat, or something?
Why are we supplying targets?? Damn...just damn..
Can’t open them
Hmm... Southfront? Sounds totally reputable.

Was this offensive just to give the Russians their confidence back ?LOL
Mines. Slowed down to a crawl, no de-mining equipment, no air superiority. This is NOT what mechanized armor was supposed to do. Yet, for many years I have been told that the Leopard II was “best tank in world”. Maybe overrated.
Armor on armor victories? Not that I have seen or heard of from Russian Tanks.
Anybody know if they have knocked out a Challenger II yet? Wondering how it does with the mines.
Fake news once again. No one other than this is reporting such losses:
Oryx:
20-21 July vehicle losses, confirmed
RU=45 with 11 tanks destroyed - mostly T-80s
UA=24 with 1 Bradley destroyed
Our resident female Ukraine Propaganda Minister will not like this report.

The real lesson is that in the modern technological era both land armored vehicles and naval surface combatants are obsolete coffins for their crews. The drones are becoming more stealthy, smaller, more lethal and cheaper by the day.
How hard is it to fake the geolocation display on a video?
Asking for a friend.......
Stop telling us things we don’t want to hear! Putin is dead and the Ukrainian democratic forces are marching on Moscow. Wow! Now I feel better.

Shows the danger of relying on weapons designed for fighting the last war.
The plethora of sanctions that were supposed to cripple Russia didn’t work either. In fact a case can be made that they have backfired.
So are the ukrainians ill prepared to operate this equipment, or is it inferior to the Russians have, or what?
Good job.
