Russian special military operation in Ukraine #28

Instead of reparing the bridge russian engineering troops filled the whole thing up with gravel. New road will be hard to destroy.

Most Russian MLRS, TBMs can now be tracked and neutralized effectively.

Not sure how this is going to help them. Ukraine forces should already be aware that the front is covered by artillery. The downed troops being sent in banzai style in cars and taken out by artillery, coming back in body bags or left there as fertilizer should be clear evidence.

The Russian artillery is placed outside of range of the Ukraine artillery to cover the frontline, so counters by artillery is out of range. I'm not wrong, am I?

No Ukraine has long range arty that can match the russians, the russians just have more of it.

I guess in a week or two the Russians will shift to more strikes along the lines of contact and in the areas behind them. Followed by artillery strikes to prepare the ground offensive.

Also, which regular electrician wants or can focus his efforts to fix stuff when there is serious risk of a double tap strike?

Distance from Russian artillery to frontline is different than distance from Ukraine artillery to Russian artillery. Could be twice the distance shells need to travel. That is assuming Russian artillery has not been deployed to far in front.

What Ukraine gun can match the 207mm, and what rocket can match the Iskander. Then there is Geranium....

Most arty is within range of each other normally, further you are the worse the accuracy unless you are using guided shells but that's expensive

Systems like Iskander aren't meant to be countered by radars like author and which 207? the gun alone doesn't dictate range

Reminds me of the log roads used in Belarus during the GPW

Interesting analysis from a US colonel, talks about 100k killed, up to 400k wounded Ukraine soldiers, how Russia so far has been pretty friendly and only using minimal troops focused on strong defense and creating attrition on Ukraine side but is now massing troops and that a massive offensive is expected in nov/dec when the soil is frozen. They guy is pretty unbiased as you can be.

As soon as this radar is turned on it will be toast. Just like all the other radars delivered for that purpose.

But its the newest wunderwaffle, it makes a nice breakfast, and is instaneously better than anything the Russians have because it cost billions as it sent all sorts of money to the marketing firms to call it a "game changer"* and even more money into the off shore accounts of the billionaires who run the MIC.

* Seriously, the billions they get paid to produce propaganda and the best they can come up with is game changer? Hell, after getting Covid after three game changing rounds of the wunderwaffle by pfizer and seeing the Nato supplied wunderwaffle equipment supplied to the wehrmacht do absolutely nothing to change anything, I think game changer is a euphamism for money changer or money launderer

I think Russia Post should issue some stamps.  Surovikin, the bridge, one dedicated to engineers, and those cranes just look cool.  See that is what normal states do.  They commemorate achievements, heros, and monuments.  Psycho Nazi states celebrate stuff that didn't happen (ghost of chicken kiev, ironically he died of salmonella ; snake island) or the destruction of things even if the damage was rebuiltm

Hello, is it know what hit the bridge?

Yes it was Mario Andretti. He missed the corner at the last appex in 1976.

If it works. No need to re-invent the wheel.

Triple-pay. At least. Plus some incentives.

Some Wagner guys had fun.

 Can´t decide how to feel after reading this. 

Some VDV guys from the South

First pic of the new russian wunderwaffe.

Genderless double adapter. The plug and play kind.

I report nothing that is not already in local news. OpSec, ya know.

Any idea what has been hit today?

I have no idea what was hit. We can not see the launches but we surely can hear them and we know which direction they are heading too. That and our baby girl REALLY does not like the missiles and she doesn't think too highly of the Migs, either. Dries, she tries to jump up and catch them to play with them. Unsuccessful so far but she does try and that little stinker can really jump high.

You are all wrong.
It was a Marvel superheroes squad.
Dot.

Actually it was Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox. He sends his regrets as he didn't mean to. After carving out the Grand Canyon with his pick axe he wanted to see the black sea that the ancient Ukrainians did. Was not impressed, and in fact he got tired when the Ukes told him he was actually based on a Ukrainian folk hero. He got tired and passed out and babe the blue ox escaped after Paul dropped the lead and gored the bridge. Paul felt terrible about it and took off back to the American west to avoid blame.
