In Russia’s defense, the Ukrainian 23rd Independent Tractor Brigade has been extremely effective.
I can see why they would target the poor John Deere’s.

Compelling video:
- Wounded at close range
- Still assaults objective
- Good self-evac back to safety
- Battle buddy doesn’t get distracted, and keeps attacking
- Good self-aid
- Next buddy immediately renders good aid
UKR has solid infantry!

He is trying to launch a grenade from a so-called “cup launcher.” A couple of issues:
- He double loads the launcher (:7 seconds and :27 seconds)
- It appears he uses a live round (:16 seconds) instead of the blank round he should use [can’t tell definitively from the video, but

Classic: They attempt another assault across the same field, apparently hoping to catch the Ukrainians by surprise, since no one would be stupid enough to mount a frontal assault across the exact same terrain two times in a row. He seems genuinely surprised assault

I’m no historian, but I seem to recall Stalin allied himself with Hitler and invaded and partitioned Poland in 1939 before Hitler inevitably turned on his “ally.”
It’s understandable why the Poles aren’t thrilled with the so-called of getting their land back.

Don’t forget that each Armata also needs its own armored recovery vehicle.
On the other hand, the Ukrainian 112th Independent Tractor Brigade will be happy to haul them off the battlefield when they break down, and their marginally trained crews surrender.

Very minor point, but it appears the Ukrainians were using MGM-140A. The main difference with the 140B/D is the slightly increased range due to decreased warhead weight (130km vs 165km). Both use the M74 APAM submunitions.
I hope they also get MGM-168As - 300km+ range!

Improvised armor (“Hillbilly armor”) made from what looks like John Deere tractor ballast weights (photo of weights credit John Deere).
My guess: they found them on a Ukrainian farm, looted them and welded them on. Useless, but probably makes the crew feel better.

Agreed. They lack the supplies, training cadre and infrastructure to train more than ~350,000/year. And that’s to a minimum standard.

These are the indicative estimates of Ukraine’s losses due to Russian looting as of Dec 28.
Due to usual Russian pre-retreat looting in Kreminna, losses were heavy today.

This is what happens when you use Google translate. What Medvedev really said was:

Put this in perspective:
- RUS hasn’t managed a battalion-level+ offensive since July 2022
- Wagner (technically illegal) is the 1 RUS unit showing any progress
- Wagner’s progress (RUS main effort) is literally measured in blocks
- RUS has tried for 9 months to take UKR’s 54th

Highly unlikely it was destroyed:
- Lancet charge is too small (1-4kg)
- Looks like all the white smoke is from Leopard’s smokescreen canisters being set off (yellow circle)
- Explosion is black smoke (visible first 3 seconds after impact) - from Lancet
- Fire suppression (Halon)

The unintended irony is he probably didn’t have to request fire on his position. Russians have been pretty about hitting their own troops with friendly fire on their own.

- Stabilizer legs are wrong

They don’t appreciate the irony: 50+ nations support Ukraine, so they conclude it must be some sort of international Satanist cabal.
The better explanation is that 50+ nations support Ukraine because of Russia’s unprovoked invasion.

Yes, 100%! Even though no Patriots were harmed in the filming of that potato-quality video, I can confirm southern Ukraine is now a free fly zone for Russian aircraft. Send in the (remaining) A-50U, Su-34 and Su-35s.
Looks like Russia might have hit a German MAN KAT 1 8x8 truck.
