The War in the Ukraine

Doesn't look like a T-80BV. That's a BMP-3.


My previous post I mentioned a trophy BMP-3 lost in the Ukrainian assault in Urozhaine, there were two trophies in fact. For the Ukrainians to throw two valuable trophies is indicative of not just the value of the mission but also of these vehicles. The BMP-3 with it's 100mm gun is proving to be a valuable support vehicle, you can use it as APC, you can use it as artillery support, and you can use it as antitank and antivehicle with APC rounds.

With regards to the BMP-1, I see a good deal of the version with 30mm guns retrofitted, the 30mm gun is more effective than the original 76mm.

P-18 radar knocked out by a Lancet. A bit of trivia, the P-18 is a distant relative to the Type 517 radars used with the PLAN. This is a very low range radar as far as 250km, resistant to stealth measures due to the VHF, at the expense of accuracy. These makes them prioritized targets by the Russians. As these are no longer made for quite a while, they are irreplaceable.


Lancets takes out SPGs.

The work of the Snake --- a Meteorit UR-77, laying it's line directly on Ukrainian positions. As previously note this mine clearer is often used with other purposes rather than mine clearance.

Long range guns using laser guided ammunition working with drones is clearly the work horse of the war. Using MLRS with the same guidance would be quite impressive. Drones are force multiplier big time.

I came across this on-field interview(English subtitles) with an Ukraine FPV drone squad. No ground breaking revelations, but its relatively interesting seeing the equipment and drones they use and hearing them recount missions and aspects of their daily lives. Worth a watch on a slow news day or if you want to see the more human element behind all the drone attack clips.
