The War in the Ukraine

Russian units have begun using FPV drones for ambush attacks in Ukraine. Drones controlled via fiber optics are used. It is implied that the drone does not fly to save battery power, but waits for a target near the road. The video shows a strike by a Russian FPV drone on a Ukrainian BATT UMG armored vehicle in the border area of the Kursk region, possibly in the Sumy region of Ukraine. The BATT UMG armored vehicle is manufactured by the American company The Armored Group, a review is available on the channel. The video also shows several attacks on pickup trucks used by the Ukrainian army. In one of the videos, during the flight of the FPV drone, you can see an unfinished anti-drone corridor on the road. The Russian army is also installing this defense against drones.

Grad MLRS strikes at Ukrainian minefields and positions at the Zaporozhye front.


Russian fighter armed with X-31P.


I would think the strike on the RADA radar complex might actually be an X-31P strike rather than an Iskander.


RADAs have been typically taken out by Lancets previously.


FAB-500 hits a location in Kherson said to be a drone workshop and warehouse. Allegedly up to 30 may have been killed.


Ukrainian T-80BV knocked out by FPV in the Kupyansk direction.


Damaged CRARRV previously depicted hit by a drone was captured and evacuated by the Russians in running condition. To sum up. This is an armored recovery vehicle based on the Challenger tank. It's likely the Russians are going to fix it up and use it as their own instead of parking it in a museum.


Compilation. FPV interceptor drones of the 61st Marine Guards Brigade working on various Ukrainian UAVs and drones.


Six Gerans reportedly arrived at Kharkhiv. In many videos recently I don't see or hear Ukrainian air defenses, which reportedly has many members sent to the trenches. This opened many opportunities for Geran strikes, and as usual, Ukrainian numbers on claims on drone kills are BS.

Operators of the 61st Guards Marine Brigade of Russia showed footage of interceptions of Ukrainian reconnaissance and attack UAVs. Unknown models of Russian FPV drones are used to intercept Ukrainian UAVs. The video shows the interception of Ukrainian Furia, Lelek, and Shark UAVs. A heavy drone of the Baba Yaga type and a Darts kamikaze UAV were also shot down. Technical information about some UAVs is available on the channel.

An episode of the evacuation of the Russian Desertcross-1000 buggy, using another similar buggy model. The Desertcross-1000 buggy is made in China. During the evacuation, a Ukrainian FPV drone appears. The soldiers start shooting at it, causing the Ukrainian drone to fall. Judging by the video, one of the fragments of the fallen drone hits one of the soldiers. But then the soldier suggests continuing the evacuation, apparently a symbolic injury. It is worth noting that the soldier shoots at the drone with a machine gun, while there is a shotgun near the buggy. It is unknown why he does not use it. The drone could have been shot down with a shotgun with one shot.

The strike on the Ukrainian Kherson Shipyard with FAB-500 aerial bombs with UMPK modules was carried out by Russian aviation. The shipyard is located on Korabel Island in the western part of Kherson. The strike was carried out by a Russian Su-34 frontline fighter-bomber. Technical information about the FAB-500 bombs is in the link to the video in the comments to the video.

New footage has emerged of abandoned Ukrainian military equipment on the border between Russia's Kursk Oblast and Ukraine's Sumy Oblast. Judging by the video, the military equipment has not yet been removed. Possibly due to the threat of drone attacks. The video has been shortened. The video shows an abandoned Ukrainian Stryker armored personnel carrier, an M113 armored personnel carrier, a Bushmaster armored personnel carrier, pickup trucks, and other equipment.

Footage of the aftermath of a strike by Ukrainian HIMARS MLRS on a group of Russian Mi-28NM and Mi-8AMTSh helicopters in the Belgorod region of Russia on March 24 has been published. We previously showed this MLRS strike, but judging by the video, our conclusions were wrong and the attack really took place. As was recently reported, the Mi-28NM was restored, but the Mi-8 will probably be written off. As can be seen in the video, the armor of the Mi-28NM helicopter cabin and canopy withstood a hit by tungsten balls from a GMLRS M30A2 missile. A local resident reported to the Ukrainian army about the temporary base with helicopters.
