The cost ratio in this one hit (actually two) on the left bank.

JOKE?

NSFW for the videos overall.

4 armored vehicles taken out
Part 1: Russian armored convoy obliterated while trying to reach own front line near Kupiansk


Part 2: Kupyansk direction, part 2 of the video where column gets destroyed and all infantry run to the woods. This video shows what happened to that infantry

Last part of this one is brutal when you see the field mouse
Part 3: Ukrainian ambush on Russian armor and infantry in the Kupyansk direction


Not sure how this guy didn't die immediately. Likely did later on.
FPV drone hits shell-shocked Russian soldier

Not Ukraine related, but this video is pretty sweet of a C-RAM System engaging and destroying an incoming drone launched by Iranian proxy forces. Erbil Iraq

Ukrainian partisan attacks in occupied territories force Russia to deploy tens of thousands of para-military security personnel.

Damn, in that third video you can see a rat running onto the deceased just a few seconds after the kaboom that ended it all.

This winter Ukraine is responding to Russian strikes on its cities with attacks of its own, and other updates.

NATO to send mine-hunting ships to the Black Sea to secure grain shipping routes, this time apparently with Turkey's support.

Ukraine is running out of time. Trump wins in November, it is over.

Trump has made a big deal about how it never would have happened had he been reelected. He certainly will try to bring this to an end, but given the way that Biden has tried to blame him for Afghanistan, I suspect that he will play hardball with the Russians, and threaten to escalate if they will not negotiate on favorable terms. Who knows how that would play out.

Trump said himself that he would try to force a deal, and if Putin doesn't want to agree to it, we would arm Ukraine even more.

Nice attempt to stir the pot, though.

One thing I wanted to bring up that was talked about in an Andrew Perpetua X thread that I can't find is that there is a lot of more boring-looking footage of Russian FPV drones striking less explodey targets, namely buildings, trenches, and other fortifications that contain infantry. While footage of these isn't a spectacle, it's important to know that they're happening in great numbers as Russia seeks degrade Ukraine's defensive positions and then take the territory.

Other contributors in this thread probably have more information than I do, but it will be very interesting to see the anti-drone developments and tactics to protect soldiers that come out of this. I'd find it hard to believe there aren't solutions in the works at the very least.

Vid title says T90 torn apart by Bradley. My old eyes can't discern crap on cell, though it appears to me the AFV moved quite a bit compared to others I have seen. For you mech or armor guys can you give us some feedback on the tactics here, crew skill, terrain, why T90 turret spinning out of control, etc?

Min range for TOW is shorter than I thought it would be. Dunno why they didn't try that. Looked pretty intense.

Word is that a massive warehouse in St Petersburg was set on fire by workers in reprisal for Russian Army recruiters visiting and drafting co-workers.

I think he was already dead and the rat was eating on him.

Kind of does, but if you look at the time stamps it's sped up quite a bit. Could just be from compression.

Question: Does the Russian massive reliance on rail systems ultimately cause them more logistic problems than it solves? Pretty easy target it seems to me.

But Germany still stalls on shipping Taurus missiles along with the US dithering with long range ATACM's. General Hodge has been calling for them for a year

Well that would suck for them if true. They don't have a lot of either of those operational.
