As per the US MIC profit plan, which is proceeding rather well in the scrapping of all the SU/Russian gear in the ex WP by the Russians.

BREAKING:

Slovakia has presented its plan of transferring its 12 MiG-29 fighter jets to the Ukrainian Air Force.

Business Insider reports that the planes will be delivered after Poland and Czechia agree to protect Slovak air space until the country receives its F-16s from USA.

Slovakia rejected a swap deal with Germany that would send their entire tank fleet - 30 T-72M1 - to Ukraine in exchange for 15 late-80s standard Leo2A4.

Russian Defence Ministry report on the progress of the special military operation in Ukraine (June 22, 2022)

Russian Federation Armed Forces continue the special military operation in Ukraine.

The enemy suffers considerable losses.

On June 21, an attack launched by high-precision armament of Russian Aerospace Forces resulted in the elimination of up to 500 servicemen of the 59th Mechanised Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU), as well as their armament and military equipment deployed in the workshops of Okean shipyard located in Nikolayev.

Servicemen of a battalion from the 57th Mechanised Infantry Brigade that had been defending near Gorskoye, Podlesnoye, Vrubovka (Lugansk People's Republic) refused to obey the order of their command and abandoned all their positions after losing more than 60 per cent of personnel.

This night, Ukrainian command evacuated up to 30 wounded and 8 killed American and British mercenaries to prevent their capture by units of the Russian Armed Forces in view of the possible defeat of the units from the 14th and the 24th mechanised brigades near Nikolayevka (Donetsk People's Republic).

Russian Federation Armed Forces launch attacks at the military facilities located in Ukraine.

Operational-tactical and army aviation have eliminated: 5 munitions depots of the AFU near Sidorovo, Verkhnyaya Kamenka (Donetsk People's Republic) and Miropolye (Sumy region), 1 Buk-M1 air defence missile system near Kurakhovo (Donetsk People's Republic), as well as manpower and military equipment in 151 areas.
Missile troops and artillery have neutralised 253 manpower and military equipment concentration areas of the AFU, as well as 6 munitions depots near Lisichansk, Verkhnekamenka, Mirnaya Dolina, Loskutovka and Podlesnoye (Lugansk People's Republic).

A fuel terminal that provided the AFU military equipment with fuel has been destroyed in Nikolayev.

Within the counter-battery warfare, 13 Ukrainian multiple rocket launcher plattoons have been neutralised near Ostroye, Gornyak, Kodema, Dzerzhinsk, Kalinovo, Zoryanoye, Dmitrov, Novolugansk, Novgorodskoye, Leninskoye, as well as 10 cannon artillery plattoons at their firing positions near Stepnaya Dolina (Nikolayev region), Spartak, Podgornoye, Nikolayevka, Leninskoye, Zaytsevo, Semigorye and Dzerzhinsk.

A U.S.-manufactured AN-TPQ artillery reconnaissance station has been destroyed near Nikolskoye (Donetsk People's Republic).

Attacks launched by aviation, missile troops and artillery have resulted in the elimination of more than 620 nationalists, 24 tanks and other armoured combat vehicles, as well as 27 special vehicles.

Russian air defence means have show down 1 Su-25 of the Ukrainian Air Force near Barmashevo (Nikolayev region) and 1 MiG-29 near Apostolovo (Dnepropetrovsk region).

In addition, 16 Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicles have been show down near Bolshiye Prokhody, Malaya Kamyshevakha, Novodmitrovskoye, Vesyoloye, Belyayevkam Brazhkovka, Chervonoye, Dolgenkoye, Suligovka, Yasinovatoye and Snake Island.

3 Ukrainian Tochka-U ballistic missiles have been intercepted near Pashkovo (Kharkov region) and Novaya Kakhovka (Kherson region), as well as 14 projectiles of a multiple rocket launcher near Snake Island, Yasinovataya (Donetsk People's Republic), Novosyolovka (Lugansk People's Republic) and Suligovka (Kharkov region).

In total, 211 airplanes and 132 helicopters, 1,308 unmanned aerial vehicles, 349 anti-aircraft missile systems, 3,733 tanks and other armored combat vehicles, 594 combat vehicles equipped with multiple rocket-launching systems, 2,081 field artillery cannons and mortars, as well as 3,801 units of special military equipment have been destroyed during the special military operation.

But of course fanboys will state otherwise, it is true if Russia has fleets of drones like predators in the skies, Ukraine would be in way more pain then it is now.

The MQ-1 Predator was retired in 2018

Well, Russia has fleets of Ka-52, Mi-28 and other helis in the sky. Plus the deadliest drone ever: Orlan-10.

Snake Island before and after. Not sure, apart from burnt vegetation, what the photos show.


Ukraine has claimed a 'significant' victory against Putin's Black Sea forces after pounding the Russian garrison on the strategic Snake Island.

The southern operational command said it had 'aimed strikes with the use of various forces' on the island, causing major losses to Kremlin troops.

Satellite images show the damage wrought by Kyiv forces, with burning vegetation and a tower destroyed in the fight for the island.

The Russian Pantsir anti-aircraft system, a radar station and vehicles were all damaged in the attacks on the island which has been a major battleground throughout the war.

It is just the latest blow for Putin who has suffered 'extraordinary' losses with pro-Russian separatists in Donetsk losing 55 per cent of its troops, British intelligence said today.

The Ministry of Defence said Russia's outdated weapons and equipment have hampered their success, and the Kremlin will now have to deploy reserve units to the Donbas to make up for the losses.

Clearly there is a lack of sophisticated drones in quantity like the American MQ-1 Predator. It would make a big difference on the battlefield.

Everyone keeps saying that but in Syria and Libya and Afghanistan... having lots of drones does not seem to be that useful.

I think people see drones and think they are all seeing all destroying super weapons... but they are a resort of the US because their planes are too expensive for the jobs they do now so they need something else... and Ironically their drones are more expensive than most Russian modern aircraft.

Could also use the T 90 M on a larger scale.

Don't take this personally, but that is as dumb as Vann... why do you think the T-90M would be invincible?

These troops are using the equipment they operate normally with... throwing them into all brand new vehicles they have not operated before, or maintained and expecting them to fight an enemy is something a child would suggest... or a marketing director at Boeing... wanting the new toys to be used so kids parents will buy the models...

As a counterpoint, use Kalibr and Iskander in large numbers, which are a last generation weapon.

Both of which have been in service for a decade... Onyx for two decades... the Kinzhal is the new weapon and it seems to be used against deeply buried weapon bunkers.

Even so, I think that the initial problems of the Russian army were due to misguided tactics, not due to the weapons used.

Considering the mission is to rescue a neighbour from nazi occupation the tactics were normal and justified... the fact that most Ukrainians don't have the spine the further west and north you move is hardly a surprise now but could not be anticipated with any certainty before hand.

Also Hole trying to bring up Afghan is fucking retarded, the Taliban did not fight in the open field, they relied on tactics that made using drones against them fairly pointless because therewasn't large concentrations of enemy forces, they are a guerilla force, they pop up attack and disperse. Sp by the time drones arrive, there is nothing present to kill.

And the Ukrainian forces stand out in the open lined up in ranks fighting the Russians like real men... hahahaha...

Compare this to the current war in Ukraine and there are THOUSNDS of troops in open areas,tanks, AA systems etc, Arty that drones can hunt down and kill.

Hahahaha... yeah.... but those thousands of troops are in cities and villages hiding behind the local civilians, and the few tanks and AA systems they have are scattered all around the place carefully hidden till taken out to use... and then taken out...

Most US success with drones killing is over territory where there is no open conflict and the targets are unaware they are about to be murdered by a murder bot... along with anyone nearby of course...

IMO russian generals are not updated on drobe technology and are still not using them effectively. We can see on the ground russian soldiers being happy with their civilian drones launching grenandes after they saw how ukrainian ones worked very well.

Whining about lack of drones used by Russia.... oh they would be doing this so much better if they had drones like the US does...

The US is a participant in this war and they are supplying the Orcs with all sorts of drones and they are losing... wow... drones... mazeballs...

Whatever.

That is an extremely immature statement, as we all see that the role of drones is huge.
Only question is, what kind of drones.

I would say he is right... lack of drones on Russias part will not lose them this conflict and no amount of drones for the nazis will save them from Russian artillery and air power...

Both sides are using drones in large numbers and it is embarrassing that some are complaining that Russia does not use enough when they don't know how many they are actually using.

They keep making statements though.

So Russia promised an appropriate response to Lithuania's blockade, but except from a military response I cannot imagine any other outcome. I hope it will not come so far.

You might have missed all of Lithuanias backtracking about how it is not their idea and that they are only implementing EU policy etc etc etc.

Container OTH covers all of Ukraine.

Most OTH radars have blind spots within 1,000km of the antenna location and would not cover Ukrainian airspace just because they are pointed in that direction...

They show how desperate the UK is to remain relevant in this conflict... latest blow Putin has suffered.... hahahaa.

Russia claims hundreds of casualties during strike in Ukraine

As many as 500 Ukrainian troops from a single brigade were killed in the city of Nikolaev, defense ministry said

Russian strikes on a shipbuilding plant in the Ukrainian port of Nikolaev killed as many as 500 troops on Tuesday, the Russian defense ministry claimed during a daily press briefing on Wednesday.

The troops belonged to the Ukrainian Army’s 59th Mechanized Brigade, the report said, who it’s believed were taking cover at the Okean Shipyard. The facility is located in the southern part of the Ukrainian city that stands on a major river some 60 kilometers inland from the Black Sea.

The ministry said the Russian Air Force had used precision weapons to strike the plant’s workshops, killing Ukrainian service members and destroying arms and military vehicles.

As a result of the strike of the Russian Aerospace Forces, up to 500 servicemen of the 59th mechanized brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with weapons and military equipment, located in the shops of the Nikolaev shipbuilding plant Okean, were destroyed.

British intel confirmed the presence of large Russian formations beginning an offensive in the east

Something has changed due to the major strikes in Nikolayev, and apparently a general collapse of the front in the east

British intel is the last place I would turn to for reliable information about this conflict. Their daily reports on the situation reads like a fantasy novel written by a teenager.

Why repeat this total nonsense?

It's nothing but Ukropi propaganda, pure and simple.

I have been "hors de combat" for the past week due to an abnormal heat wave, here's an entry about the general situation, explained in layman terms, I will try to add another entry regarding recent developments of the Zolotoye cauldron

EDIT, and here's today briefing

Poland has already been waiting for a few years now, for its already fully paid fighter jets from the U.S.A.

It is stupid for them to count on other countries to defend their air space.

The polish government is more or less a puppet of Washington. The decision was made there and now Warsaw has to obey orders.

The collapsing sectors of the Donbass front are the reason why Russia isn´t bombing the shit out of Dnjepropetrovsk or Nikolayev.
They were able to liberate a swath of land in less then a day. Behind the fortified lines of the Donbass there are a few trenches in the
Dnjepropetrovsk region but nothing compared to the fortifications in Donbass. The Russian Army could break trough these lines and
liberate like half of the region in a matter of days, without much fighting = a lot of settlements/villages taken over without much damage.

Confirmation by who ? Ukraine ?

Gotta laugh at these accounts who think they are being objective by doubting the Russian mod and Ukraine mod equally.

Knock some sense into your head will you

Well that's what objective means you express the same doubt for both sides and don't take either sides unproven claims has fact.

What you want is for everyone to believe in everything russia says has facts while not believing a single dam thing Ukraine says (Unless it suits your narrative).

Only a moron wouldn't question both sides this is a war both sides are going to lie if you cannot expect that, that's on you but don't bitch and moan if others don't

Russia has lied to try and cover up some tactical failures, such as the river crossing etc.

Sure you can argue Ukraine has made way bigger lies and they have, but that doesn't mean every single claim Russia makes is true also.
