Special forces of the SBU arranged a real “road of anger” against the enemy
Every step of the occupiers on Ukrainian land turns into a death trap, carefully planned by the special forces of the Central Security Service “A” of the SBU. High-precision strikes do not leave the enemy a chance - they die together with the wreckage of their equipment.
Yes, over the past week, our soldiers “minus”:
▪️ 10 tanks
▪️ 33 BBM
▪️ 18 artillery systems and MSWs
▪️ 4 air defense systems and one EW/REP system
▪️ 219 vehicles
▪️ 25 UAVs and 22 communication antennas
▪️ 148 enemy fortifications and firing positions
▪️ 2 warehouses with ammunition
176 occupiers were also destroyed.
I wonder about this as part of the visually confirmed data. Hamny destroyed and unrepairable vs repairable, etc.
There are plenty of estimates out there, but it’s extremely scattered. The problem is that there are dozens of conditionals attached. For example, if a vehicle was just damaged was it actually recovered? If it was recovered, was it actually repairable? If it was repairable, did it make it back into service? If it made it back into service, how does it count against all previous estimates?
I exaggerated a little, but the point remains. Especially with Russian vehicles, actual numbers are so obscure, probably even their own commands couldn’t give you an answer.
So. Probably the most reliable way to make educated guesses is to make estimates on visible reserves factoring in visually confirmed total losses. Covert Cabal and his buddies on YouTube seem to do a fairly good job of tracking Russian reserves using the latest satellite pictures.
After all of that, I don’t have a good answer for you. There is a somewhat reliable way to get “before and after” data but anything that happens in between is anyone’s guess.
On the flip side, not every drone hit is going to be debilitating to armor. I catch myself going: “where’s the secondary explosion?” quite a bit, I want that Russian equipment destroyed, but sometimes I just don’t see the confirmation.
Yeah, I have seen it take one drone for a kill or as many as five (or more), depending on the armor. Still thought, a top-down hit on tanks are going to be rough. Even if you don’t have confirmation, you can make a good guess on the damage based on where the hit was, the attack angle of the drone and the explosive used.
