You can see the airburst around the 36 mark.

War is hell. I hope these guys are ok.

Ok, I feel compelled to write this. This thread is what I read in the evening and again in the morning. As a former battery commander in Germany from 1985-1989, I have a keen interest in how this is going to turn out. I hope the Russians get everything that's coming to them. Things have not changed in 37 years.
As a former tank company commander in Germany during the same time period, I agree.
Also, tanks remain viable and frankly essential in war. The Russians are demonstrably exactly how not to use tanks. Combined arms, with the armor, infantry, artillery, aviation, air defense, and other multiplying assets worked together are a fearsome force.
I am very surprised at the incredible lack of coordination that the Russian forces are demonstrated. Just completely astonished.

This looks like a very effective way to clear an entire block of snipers.
Hopefully there are no civilians left in those buildings

Also, very surprised by the range of that line charge, that's quite a distance

It's like every Russian generation learns the exact same lessons all over again. No one's studied military history. Not even their own.

As an offensive force, the Russian army is a gigantic joke.

Sanctions steadily clamping down on Russia's economy. TIMELINE.

Taking the War to Russia. Surprised this hadn't happened sooner.

Quote:
'Ukrainian missile strikes' blow up oil facilities in Russia supplying troops in Donbas as British intelligence says Putin's forces have 'yet to achieve a significant breakthrough' and many units are 'exhausted'

  • Explosions rocked two oil storage facilities - one of that at a military base - in Russian city of Bryansk overnight
  • Blasts, though to have been caused by Ukrainian missiles, sparked huge fires which raged into the morning
  • Bryansk is a logistical hub supplying Russian forces in Donbas, where Putin's main offensive is taking place
  • UK says Russia has yet to achieve any 'significant breakthrough' of Ukrainian defences in the region, because of poor logistical support and ongoing fighting in Mariupol tying up troops

You can hear the missile coming in before the explosion.

You would think all that vaunted air defense they talk about would have seen it coming. HMMMM...maybe it works about as well as their logistics lines.

I'm assuming they are using Tochka SRBMs. Ukraine had several dozen at the beginning of the war. Interesting in that they only have a 120km advertised range. Not sure what else they could be using.

Maybe a dumb question, but how does Ukraine mark Russian equipment they've captured so they don't get shot? Paint over the Z or V? Fly a Ukrainian flag?

I was curious about this and tried to track it down on Google maps. Best I can tell, the group of buildings is a university. I would assume they haven't been holding classes there for some time.

I believe this type of action was discussed here... That looks like a helluva accident.

Though he's the only one reporting this as far as I can tell. We'll have to wait for confirmation of the authenticity and details.

We'll stop sending things to kill your troops with when they stop being in Ukraine. Until then, happy dying, ***holes.
