Multiple artillery strikes at Chernihiv, targeting and taking out multiple Ukrainian lairs by Krasnapols.


Towards the northern front, Ukrainian hideouts and what appears to be an ammo depot are hit by Russian artillery.


Ukrainian tank or APC got smoked by a BMD-4M of the VDV using drone adjusted indirect fire with HE.

So intriguing to see all these radar with high mobilility getting wrecked by Lancet helped with spotter drones. It look like they are not detecting them at all or the crew is spotting them and just staying still.

There is a minimum dectection distance for all radar.

IT is easy, say the radar transmit 10% of the time, then in the leftover time it detecting the reflected waves.

say the max range is 400 km, means using the above the bling spot of the radar will be 40 km.

Anything closer will reflect back only a fraction of the signal.

So, if they want to detect object in grat distance then they will be blind for the close surrounding.


Hence the reason why the S-300 has the pantsir as a protector/close eye.

Isn't it more to do with the size and speed of the drone? It's difficult to filter out the small and slow moving drones from the background junk.

Houthi drones were launched from Yemen but they still BTFO the Patriots the Saudis operated.

Has Russia picked up pace recently over the last few days with drone/missile strikes? Tempo seems to have picked up recently? Perhaps local production of Gerans picking up pace?

Making some pressure in the north of the country divide forces. . All these strike is to push the Ukrainian to stay still until they end the change-over with Wagner and secure the front there. They have secured some ground along the Oskil river in the northeast.

Ukraine have quite a finite number of patriot missiles to spend, if Russia can lower the number, it will be way more easier to cover the defence against the ''spring '' offensive.

I heard Ukraine may already have abandoned their side of Marinka, because there was no point in holding on to rubble.

The Russians have not moved in however because there was no point in taking over rubble.

I hope the PLA is watching the current events extremely closely as it is immediately applicable to Taiwan, you have Russian attempts to neutralize US ABM/AD via hypersonics and also defense against Ukranian stealthy cruise missiles, both of which are critical factors in any AR scenario. Current scenario is allowing putting hard data to simulation, which is extremely hard to come by.

This is probably more important than any lessons about UAVs or tanks due to PLARF being the lynchpin of any AR scenario.

if you want to know the real efficacy of Russian strikes, see Ukraine's real economic data. Go ahead and click UKRENERGO, generation. Daily production went from ~20 GW to ~10 GW after the war and has not recovered.

As electricity is a fundamental requirement for a modern economy, and 50% collapse in generation would've been catastrophic without a similarly large loss of population, the situation for an analogous occupied territory that doesn't have the capability to send refugees away, and which is far less fuel and food self sufficient, is self evident.

So. No one is bringing it up?

Moscow was attacked by several drones. Some apartments were hit as far as I can tell and no casualties. That said, how in the world did the Ukrainians fly multiple drones over 450 km to Moscow undetected?

Could've been staged by the Russians, or the Ukrainians could have used small drones to make their radar signature basically undetectable. Of course the corrolary of that is that they can't pack more than like a grenade at most. It's meant as psychological warfare; to show that Moscow isn't immune. They can't do real damage.
