It began on October 8, 2022, to give the battered Russian army a chance to come to its senses by giving us shells. For 224 days the guys stormed that city. There was only PMC Wagner, there were no shells, there was no airborne forces and anyone else who could help us with shells, as Konashenkov said. We were helping ourselves, but not to shells," said the head of the PMC "Vagner" Prigozhin.

Curious if they mean the hull and turret, or just the actual glacis. I know the drivers port is a weakened zone, but that'd be surprising.

A few images of KO'd Leopard 2 on Twitter now. On Russian accounts so idk if authentic, but plausible. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1665735979427037184

 Looks like "the spot" may have been captured by Russians. Skepticism is merited of course. Theres vid of guy walking around area too with the vehicles in background.

Chalks posted:Good lord their optics are trash, no wonder they can't tell a tractor from a tank. Its the same group as shown a bunch today. Its actually interesting comparing the image there and missile flight time vs the tractor vid. Tractor was closer presumably but quality is worse, vs there where its further away yet better. Ambient atmospheric conditions presumably are a big factor illustrated in comparing and how they effect thermal imaging.

dumby posted:Got it from this guy: https://twitter.com/imetatronink Obvs he's pro Russia (more anti-US), but one of the more neutral observers I've found. So much of the infosphere on this is just straight propaganda from both sides. "The Ukrainians are apparently determined to continue feeding their men and NATO's armor into this new Zaporozhye meat-grinder. And, as widely predicted by many, neither the German Leopard 2A6 nor the American M2 Bradleys are a match for Russian firepower. This is a massacre." Buddy, if this is what a neutral viewer looks like.......

decoys are prob way to go. "Make them turn on their AA so we can locate and shoot it" is like over a half century old as a tactic.

Chalks posted:Here's a fascinating video claiming to be footage of Russians attempting to shoot down a Storm Shadow. Looks like they fire two missiles but can't hit it. Flies much lower and is presumably significantly harder to detect on radar so more difficult to react. Those engagements were pretty drat close. Id imagine 1 was intercepted, 1 hit bridge. Versus a top-tier SHORAD system thats a very good result.

APKWS for plinking designated targets via rocket could be useful, but then youd need an expendable drone capable of designating for a heli with a comparatively short range and at that point you can just drop a GMLRS round on it

Tuna-Fish posted:Nope. Ka-52 is the best rotary wing platform available to them specifically because it doesn't have to do that, and can fire ATGMs instead. It's lovely compared to an Apache because it has to hover in place when doing that, but it's still a pretty nice capability. KA-52 has some interesting longish range weapon too which I forgot the name of. Like 15km or so. Cant carry as many as Vikhr though. Surprised US never went for something Brimstone-tier for range, but meh.
