‼️🇷🇺Framework of the breakthrough and assault of Russian infantry to capture a Ukrainian opornik in the Kharkov region

▪️2 Desertcross-1000 all-terrain vehicles break through close to enemy positions, the infantry is unloaded and immediately a squad of ten soldiers enters a shooting battle, approaching the enemy trenches.
▪️The soldiers fire from machine guns and grenade launchers. They are also supported by fire from a tank (at the beginning of the video in the frame on the left). As a result, the supporter was taken.

Several people here have asked what a good estimate of russian casualties is - here's one estimate. the interesting finding is that russian losses are now lower than at any time, deaths in the range of 20/day. IMO the estimate of 52000 since the war started is low but possible.

🇷🇺 Epic liquidation of the Khokhlyat BEC!

The vertical pilots of the marine fleet, delicately maneuvering on their Ka-29, destroyed an enemy unmanned boat.

💥The soldiers fired from course cannon weapons, machine guns, and also from a Kalashnikov machine gun from the airborne squad! And then one of the bullets hit the right place, causing the Khinzir BEC to detonate the R-73 on top

Best job in the world!

This is the big week with putins innaugerration and victory day celebrations, ukraine is certain to try for the kerch bridge or the event itself. So later this week when they fire 50 cruise missiles at the bridge and poke a small hole in it they'll jump around like they won the war.

 Russian gunsmiths have developed another anti-UAV weapon for infantry soldiers.
The device is equipped with 12-gauge hunting cartridges with buckshot; inserted into an underbarrel grenade launcher; When a UAV is detected, the fighter fires a shot.

Comment from Russian military forum 

The analogy with "Pantsir" suggests itself,
where cannon armament, the very last stage of defense, is,
in principle, very good, I like it, cheap and cheerful,
where you can quickly switch from 5.45 to 12 gauge,
if you don’t have one, drone I managed to shoot it down and it’s already close,
but you can’t give Saiga-12 to everyone. Let it be for now.
Of course, electronic warfare equipment and their suppression of enemy drones is even better,
and the 5.45 - 12 combination is still a last resort for protection against it,
so the appearance in the arsenal of such a simple device, and it is clearly useful,
gives the fighters additional psychological confidence, which is extremely important.
...And on occasion, you can plant a bunch of this happiness (buckshot) into the carcass of a nasty Ukrainian, or a group of them,
if you don’t have time to reload the magazine, and even out of simple mischief...and what will happen.
This device is very useful in all respects

🪖 Destroying an enemy BEC. The guys' story.

“We worked as usual at night, detected targets by the heat, requested fire on the target, our board entered the zone and the work began,
1 regular BEC was destroyed, and 2, which had been circling for a long time with missiles and wanted to be launched at our MI-8, we found it and unwound it.”

The guys fired a machine gun from a Ka-29 helicopter.

Circled around with missiles for a long time and wanted to launch them at our MI-8.”

But for some reason I didn’t launch them. Probably he didn’t know that it was enough to turn around so that the helicopter was in the desired hemisphere.

But for some reason the helicopter categorically “did not want” to be in the desired hemisphere! )) Strange 😁

A significant event in the history of aerobatic teams was the MAKS 2007 air show. Then, in August 2007, for the first time in the history of world aviation, a horizontal “barrel” was made as part of a group of nine combat aircraft, called, due to its outline and uniqueness, the “Cuban Diamond”💎

👉 ATGM - crown, reset - funeral!

😎Staff of the joint work of the ATGM crew and UAV operators of the 14th separate guards special forces brigade in the Northern Military District zone.

🫡Far Eastern warriors discovered the M113 Armed Forces of Ukraine, which was heading for rotation. Having quickly cooperated, the ATGM crew was the first to work. After the American iron hearse stopped, the UAV operators destroyed it with an elegant drop.

🤩It’s a pleasure to watch such coherent work!

All that was left was a trace on the ground... I'm a little puzzled, what could have exploded like that?! But beautiful! 

Lol. No shit.
