And/or Russkies running out of MANPADS.

There is stuff floating around, nothing concrete mind you, that the Russian supply is cut in Robotnye area.  This would seem to jive with that.

Ho. Lee. Shit.

One does not abandon their own, they try to save their own. Except if you are called Russian. Shocking, but telling footage.
The 59th mechanized destroyed a Russian 9A52-4 Tornado with an FPV drone. After the crew knew the launcher was done, they fled.

Despite all the shit going on in the world there are still some amazing people.

Kharkiv residents wish Happy Birthday to Fuminori Tsuchiko. He sold his home in Japan and moved to Kharkiv to open a cafe in the city. The cafe offers free hot meals to about 1,000 people a day.Thank you, Sir! Happy birthday! https://t.co/G0A1bt6uej

Russians are going to hit that with a missile if they can.

The SBU attacked the Krasnaya Yaruga electrical substation in the Bilhorod region that supplied Russian military facilities.

 

A Ukrainian FPV drone stopped the movement of a Russian KamAZ after which the crew ran off. Another FPV finished the job.

Relatives of the mobilised men from Tatarstan are puzzled as to why the battalion was placed on the zero line in Svatove direction, and not in defence as promised, and is taking "colossal casualties" as a result.Regiment number 1234.

 

Ukrainian "Baba Yaga" drone visit: Russians were left wondering as to what could have caused such damage to their T-80 tank that forced the gun fully underground and made the rest of the tank unrecognisable. Presumably, Zaporizhzhia direction, 14 October.

Im not sure what the military term is for when even your armor is forced underground. But I know the literary term is “foreshadowing”

There should be some late 1970s porn waka-waka guitar music in the background while they look at the tank, because that’s usually a sign someone’s about to get fucked.

So... the numbers of Russian casualties in these reports is 2x-3x each day from what is was a few weeks ago.

Yeah, there's been an uptick in dead Russian videos - the OSINT folks are geolocating everything, and I don't remember exactly where, but in a few areas they tried to ramp things up.  The Russians tried to launch a....counter-counter-offensive? in a few areas and got chewed the fuck up, and the Ukrainians hit some units on the ground, and Ukrainian aircraft (both fixed-wing and rotary) seem to be more active.

Also seems like the Ukrainians hit some speciality equipment - not just the run-of-the-mill tanks or APCs, but some C&C stuff, MLRS, radar, etc.

It almost feels like the Ukrainians have some new drone hardware in the mix as well, seems like they are able to kill more Russians/hit more hardware.

And everyone's focused in Israel/Hamas right now so it's all flying under the radar.

We get a meal at work from culinary. Unfortunately, the current chef tends to lean into "healthy" meals like turkey meatloaf, Kale and eggplant. On the occasions we get something decent like prime rib they fuck it up with their version of cheesy grits which do not reheat in a microwave worth a fuck and quinoa. WTF is quinoa? The oriental meals are pretty decent and consistent quality. I miss the old days back when I started there. We got to order off a menu and one option was 2 bacon wrapped filet mignon with baked potato. Guess what I ordered 5 days a week.

Avdiivka, just north of Donetsk, is where the Russians have been throwing a ton of resources and personnel at the Ukrainians. The Russians have lost a ton of tanks, IFVs, and APCs there in the last week or so.

Is this a bit?

Surely this is a bit.

Military hardware fails more often than people think, it's just that it's not caught on video - YouTube has plenty of mortar/RPG fails.

I've seen a mortar round fail, similar to the video below, and it's a pants-shitting moment, even though in theory they've got safeties that prevent detonation in case of an accident like that (ask @Scheiss Meister if it ever happened to him).

Rockets...I only ever shot AT4s, and only a couple, but I was told the minimum arming range was I think 10 or 15 meters, so if that RPG-7 has a similar minimum arming range, those guys are safe, but still shitting their pants.  These weapons have pretty simple but cool mechanisms to prevent them from arming/detonating if they drop out of the launcher/mortar in a misfire.

What I would find funny, is if we find out that Kim sent them back crap the Russians had sold them over the years they knew didn't work.  It wouldn't shock me in the slightest if over the years, Russia knowingly sold the North Korean's busted shit, and now Kim is returning the favor.

Oh HELL yes it happened to me and yes, I pissed my pants.  When we first changed from the M-2 to the M-224 60mm mortars our armorers decided that they wanted to shoot a 60, so they grabbed a new-in-box gun and set it up.  Dumbasses didn't clean it first, so the barrel was full of cosmoline.  As I said elsewhere, we used WP rounds (with an effective kill radius of 100 meters) to set the base plates, so they dropped a WP round to set the plate.  It made a weird sucking sound and dropped about 15 meters in front of the gun, which was also about 40 meters from me and 45 from where the ammo was stacked.  Of course it didn't go far enough to arm, so it didn't go off, but how much do you trust the lowest bidder?  It looked remarkably like the example in the video.

More to @atomheartbevo's point, I saw quite a few 60mm mortar rounds and LAAW rounds that fell less than halfway to their targets due to malfunctions in the propellant charges.  Thank God for functioning safeties.

But other than that, how was the play Mrs. Lincoln?

 

I do wonder if the Russian thinking was that with everything going on in Gaza and what not, if they thought US surveillance efforts would have been refocused elsewhere.  Considering they would have had to mass this kind of force prior to the actual action, if that is the case it would indicate they had fore-knowledge of the Hamas attack.  In any event, whatever they may have been thinking, it's not going well.  

I've also read unsubstantiated stuff that indicated the Ukrainians knew they were going to do this and set a massive ambush for them.  Considering the losses, that part seems plausible.

600 days of defiance against Russia's full-scale aggression. Freedom is gained by a will that does not give up. Freedom founded on unity always prevails. The goal is to not waste time. Not lose unity. Not let doubts undermine our resolve. Every day, we must add to Ukraine's strength. Every day, we must destroy the occupier. Every day, we must make every effort to ensure that Ukraine’s future belongs solely to Ukrainians. I thank everyone who is fighting and working for Ukraine’s freedom. May the memory of everyone who gave their lives to preserve our nation be eternal and blessed. We will undoubtedly prevail.

These numbers are wrong, Ukraine doesn't have superiority except in localized cases, and it's misleading because Ukraine received a one-time batch of ammo from Korea for the counter-offensive. We won't get those anymore because there is no ammo in such numbers anymore

Propagandist Sladkov is preparing his audience for the lack of any actions by Russia in the coming months and says it needs 5-10x superiority over Ukraine to advance again. Looks like the past year was just not enough for the second military in the world to accumulate potential.
