Russian special military operation in Ukraine #36

Fake news that Ukraine is making up. I personally wouldn't have a problem with this. But it aint happening

Russian fighters in the uniform of the Armed Forces of Ukraine penetrate the headquarters and destroy Ukrainian officers

In one of the new messages, they write that PMC "Wagner" in Ukrainian pixel camouflage with yellow and green armbands penetrated the positions of the 17th tank brigade through holes in the defense and reached the battalion's command post, where they shot officers and soldiers with pistols with silencers.

None of this has happened.

It's their idiotic response about the recent video. They are lying when there is no need of lying. They are making Wagner look even more James Bond evil than they are.

But let them dream and create myths about Wagner.

It kinda works, if you watch Ukrainian soldiers they are complaining about "Zeks" (prisoners) attacking them non stop. You can clearly see that they fear a prisoner with a knife ending up in a narrow trench more than an artillery strike on their heads.

Dumb think tanks

So Kiev can't supply Bakhmut efficiently coz T1302 & T0513 highways are under Russian control , also M03 is few kilometers away and could be easy blocked by continous shelling .



Report from the French TV on Bakhmut:

There is a constant flow of wounded Ukrainians to the hospitals, in one military hospital alone receive around 100 wounded soldiers a day.

Talking about Ukrainians fearing Wagner

“They are unstoppable, they never give up, they are like ORCs”

What are the Orcs they always mention on both side ?

Ukrainian S-300V. I wonder how many launchers of these systems they had. Anyone have any data?

Top US Navy official says US may need to choose between arming itself or Ukraine in the next 6 months, due to depletion of its own weapons stocks

At least 48 launchers for 2022.

We are in a black phase already.





By the way, tons of Wagner made materials from Soledar and surroundings.
The whole area is literally stuffed with dead Ukrs. Dozens and dozens of corpses, everywhere.
The MoD report of about 700KIAs in the last 3 days only is obviously true.

... and Anal Julian is tasting medicines he applied so generously to the others, and didn't like it ...

When the Americans do this they make movies about it. 


Abandoned Krab

Captured Krab? Well ofcourse Ukrainians don’t care about NATO technologies falling into Russian hands. There is something this Korean machine can teach Russians. Probably battle management systems are most interesting. Not that Ukrainians used them.

Clever, cheap and easy to roll out.

"Artillery coordinates will be determined by sounds. Our military has developed good software for Android smartphones/tablets. It determines the coordinates of enemy artillery by the sounds of shots.

In the magazine " Arsenal of the Fatherland” report that this is a non-standard artillery reconnaissance tool used along with sound-measuring systems in service with the Russian army. The authors of the publication specify:

“Four sound meters with smartphones (tablets) are located at a distance of 3-6 km from the line of contact. And with the help of such software, the time of detection of the sound of a shot is determined both in automatic and in manual mode. Time synchronization is based on the data of the satellite navigation system. If there is a connection between smartphones, internal synchronization occurs. The obtained values ​​are transferred to the central plate. And the coordinates of the sounding target are calculated. Which is quickly covered with a copper shell."

Off topic but a word about Poland. They have a good army but nothing that could contain a russian attack. Their f-16 are outdated. They don't have an AD to stop russian missiles and the size of the country allows to hit anything with Iskanders. Meanwhile they don't have weapons to hit russian key target.

Their only solution would be an ukrainian scenario where they loose their conventional weapons and stick with special forces attacks with some long range rockets systems. They have the same nationalists like ukraine but most of population would flee the war.

Of course that's a 1 vs 1 scenario. In reality Nato would support them.

Note the shrapnel clouds.

Flying back to St. Petersburg

Mildly unsettling.

It is not Korean.
Krab is an AS90 made in Poland. But the mighty Polish MIC was unable to weld a hull strong enough not to crack while shooting, they had to ask Koreans. So we can call it an AS90/Hyundai bastard.

Clever, cheap and easy to roll out.

These kinds of systems are often used in city security structures. Sound source triangulation made by the microphonic net allows for determining the location of shootings, crashes, unrest etc.

The krab was photod by a ukrainian behind ukrainian lines. It hasnt been captured. This can be seen by the obviously ukrainian uniform pixels in the photo.

If the front of the enemy is weakened, this should be exploited.

The front of the enemy currently seems to colab.

Ukraine says that Soledars defenses are holding, the city is not occupied. Relayed by all major news media now.

I don't often use internet speech, but ROFL. What a circus, insert compulsory Baghdad Bob and Der Untergang memes.
