But as usual the US nerfed it. It has no ERA for example. They only added spaced armor to it.

Never thought one day I may see a national flag of RF on a M2 or M1...
"It has no ERA for example"
And they have no independent para sights for the commanders either...

Take a look at the size of the protest at around the 0:48 mark.
And then look at those on the other side of the police cordon opposing them at 0:12 or so. There's like 40-50 of them, no more. And they're waving EU and Ukrainian flags and the standard slogans.
The presence of this pathetic anti-Russian counter-protest to the much large main one - only serves to highlight the anti-NATO character of the main protest

Ministry of Defense: Wagner Group detachments occupied two quarters in Artemovsk.
MOSCOW, April 17 - RIA Novosti. Stormtroopers of the Wagner Group liberated two more quarters in the northwest and in the center of Artemovsk, the Ministry of Defense reported.
"In the Donetsk direction, assault detachments over the past day captured two quarters in the north-west and in the central part of the city of Artemovsk," the report says.
The department stressed that the fighters of the group were assisted by units of the Airborne Forces, as well as military personnel of the South group of troops. As specified, they fettered the actions of the enemy on the flanks of the assault squads.
The Ministry of Defense also noted that aviation made 22 sorties in the Donetsk direction, and the artillery of the Southern Group of Forces completed 54 fire missions. As a result, it was possible to defeat the units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine near Bogdanovka, Chasov Yar and Konstantinovka in the DPR. The enemy lost a total of over 270 soldiers and mercenaries, one tank, an infantry fighting vehicle, seven armored fighting vehicles and five vehicles.
At the beginning of last week, the founder of the Wagner Group, Yevgeny Prigozhin, said that 80 percent of Artemovsk, including all administrative centers, plants and factories, is under the control of Russian units.
At the same time, he later stated that it was too early to talk about the complete encirclement of the city. In turn, a Wagner Group fighter told RIA Novosti that the Ukrainian army was being "squeezed out with ticks" from this settlement.

Interestingly, if that is at the front, they saw no need for a Z etc on it.

"Last week, a highly-classified Pentagon document showed that four out of nine JDAMS fired by Ukrainian pilots missed their targets due to Russian GPs jamming capabilities. The document says that other artillery systems such as the M270 and HIMARs are also being impacted by Moscow’s forces using GPs jamming."

Ukrainian topic already becoming very unpopular. It’s not that there is sudden support for Russia in eastern Europe, but more or less people are tired of Ukrainian bullshit. And rubbing Ukro flags into domestic protester noses is not helping. Especially when you consider that even in anti russian countries majority of people are pragmatists who simply want better life for them and their children. But atlantists are idiots. If EU had a spine and wouldn’t be cowards, they would chose Hungarian stance

In Moldova they're also all protesting only with Moldovan flags.
Yet the pattern is the same, they despise their current government for moving to drag them into the war, and they agitate for neutrality
I think the same thinking is at the back of people's minds in Czechia too. Otherwise for what would they be so opposed to their government's policies, they know perfectly well after all that the same inflation, energy prices and so on are all a consequence of the same NATO blockade and sanctions on Russia.

Ukraine is Using Ethnic Russians as Cannon Fodder.
Looks like the claim about it I have posted on here before is true.
While the real ethnic Ukrainians get conserved/spared or get to serve in the elite nationalist units.

Ukrainian formations continue preparations for the spring campaign along the entire frontline. In #Kherson region, the activity of the AFU on the right bank of the #Dnieper has increased. The number of mortar shelling has increased and additional forces have been redeployed to the line of contact.

According to the Ukrainian commanders, crossing the river is a necessary step for a successful offensive with a broad front, as it will allow the Russian forces on the left bank of the #Dnieper to be constrained, despite the potential losses.
The objective of the initial strike from the right bank of the #Dnieper is to divert the attention of the RF Armed Forces by using the length of the river to their advantage.
![:pushpin: 📌](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/emojione/assets/png/1f4cc.png?v=2.2.7)
The most likely sites are the #Kinburn Peninsula, #Kherson and Nova Kakhovka because of convenient terrain for both manpower and equipment. That is where the engineers of the 808th Pontoon Bridge Regiment are stationed.
Given the increased activity of both Ukrainian infantry and information and psychological operations

Old video, it was towing M777 and hunted down with other transport vehicles.
The point is, not all HIMARS have that spaceship looking cab. Which the nafo f-heads all use to claim that no hmars have ever been destroyed
