Have the Ukes expends all of the Javelins we gave them? I haven't seen any recent reports of their use and I know they were going through them as fast as we could supply them 6 months ago.

---

We have been giving them TOW missiles which supposedly we have literally 1000s in inventory .. some of the newer TOW missiles are wireless similar to the Javelins

Russia has been running out of tanks. Nothing for the Javelins to hit.

We have given "over 10,000" javelins and "over 4,000" TOW. My understanding is the TOWs are mainly for use by vehicles like the Bradleys

Nice advance but still 15 miles from the strategic town of Tokmak unfortunately.

An Advisor to the Head of the Donetsk People’s Republic, Denis Pushilin has announced that the Russian Armed Forces have completed preparations for a Full-Scale Offensive in the Kharkiv and Luhansk Regions of Northeastern Ukraine.

Russian Sources are reporting that Ukrainian Forces along the “Kupiansk” Frontline in the Kharkiv Region have begun to Withdraw, at some points up to 2km, towards the West Bank of the Oskil River where Positions are stated to be more Defensible.

As has been said before, this twitter account is one of the least accurate OSINT accounts. I'd take what he says with a grain of salt... It often posts sensatiomalist claims on both sides for more engagement.

However, I expect Russia to gain some land in this offensive... But they will likely get bogged down in tje population centers north of Kupiansk. Their offensive moves (with the exception to Wagner) have been very ineffective, and Ukraine has had a lot of time to prep for this offensive. Russia hasn't visibly been able to disrupt Ukraine's logistics either.

.......and also TOW on some portion of the 2,000+ HUMVEEs we've given them.

US significantly ups artillery ammo production along with similar increase from EU, latest on fighting around Kupiansk, more drone attacks on Russia and other notes.

Today's SITREP.

That's a big hole

AeroXplorer is aware of rebound regarding this article. Our editors would like to clarify that this article is solely referring to autobrakes, the braking system that is usually used in tandem with reverse thrust. Brakes used by the aircraft for ground operations are still functional, as only one of four brakes are being deactivated, not all four. AeroXplorer cross-checked the story with multiple sources and confirmed the validity of the information. We apologize for any confusion.

Ah.

I'm guessing that tank wasn't present long. I counted 14-15 shots in 90 seconds and they only carry like 40 125mm rds, and less at the ready

Still a sad state of affairs for Aeroflot

I know it's hard to tell but that building was at one point a restaurant and coffee shop.

Damn they roasted that coffee at too high a temp. Gonna make Starbucks look smooth. Was wondering when we'd start seeing that video.

Maybe a bit more of a concrete currency effect, the Ruble is also tumbling against the Yuan.

Most Russian drone groups rely on donations from Russian citizens, almost always in Rubles. This may significantly hurt their ability to acquire Chinese drone parts. pic.twitter.com/4EVDnYy59s

Even after the clarification, that's less than ideal. They're probably doing it for lack of consumables or spare parts, so it's only a matter of time before this impacts other things.

"Impacts" being the operative word.

I d find it difficult to believe so many people are still living in the City Centers. After a year of War I would have at least moved my wife and kids to the Countryside in a safe town further away from areas being targeted by Russia.

Not exactly a wealthy country. A lot of people don't have that option. If that is where you are earning an income and that's where you stay.

It's a parts shortage issue and they lose payload for each deactivated brake. They cannot deactivate more than a few.

I really hope the northern push was to pull all the Russian supplies and reinforcements away from the deep south so they could launch across the river and make a run for the coast.

I hope so too but the Russians have quite a few defensive lines including trench systems, comms, artillery revetments, obstacles, anti-tank ditches and minefields. A run for the coast is very unlikely.

Very interesting. Anyone know anything further about this "ASRAAM based SAM system"?

The Russian defensive positions are significantly less in the Deep South around Kerson than they are in the east.

The landing spot that's been publicized was at the eastern end of one of those fortification belts. My guess is they scouting defenses or trying to pull troops away from another landing spot. They've also posted a higher than normal number of videos of their riverine patrol boats. I wonder if they'd be able to hide/disguise pontoon bridge sections close enough. You're going to need to get 2-3 minimum up PDQ if you really want to create a break out there. 7 rubber boats with a total of 50 guys going ashore isn't going to cut it.
