The Russian army uses Shturm-S self-propelled anti-tank missile systems in battles in Ukraine. The Shturm-S self-propelled anti-tank complex was put into service in 1979. The complex can hit not only armored vehicles, but also low-speed air targets. "Shturm-S" has proven itself well during the fighting in Ukraine, one of the crews driving the "Storm-S" was able to destroy 4 enemy vehicles at a time. At a maximum range of 5000 meters, the anti-tank system of the complex can hit a target meter by meter in size with a 90% probability. The guidance system of the ATGM complex has high noise immunity due to the use of 2 special codes and 5 frequencies when guiding missiles. Calculation of the machine 9P149: 2 people. Ammunition 12 missiles "Sturm". Rate of fire up to 4 rounds per minute. The power reserve of the car is 500 km. Details of the combat use of the Shturm-S complex in Ukraine in an interview with two crews.
An episode of the work of Russian artillerymen with a gun - howitzer D-20. The Soviet 152-mm D-20 howitzer was put into service in 1953, howitzers of this series were used in many conflicts and are in service with a large number of countries, including the Ukrainian army. The maximum range of howitzer fire with a conventional projectile is 17400 meters, with an active reactive projectile 24 kilometers. Howitzer deployment time 2 minutes, calculation 8 people. More details about the work of artillerymen in Ukraine in the video.
Germany handed over to Ukraine its advanced TRML-4D radar from HENSOLDT. The TRML-4D radar was developed in 2018 and is intended for the IRIS-T SLM air defense system, which we will talk about later. The radar is capable of tracking up to 1,500 flying objects at an altitude of up to 30 kilometers and tracking them at a distance of up to 150 km for aircraft and 60 km for supersonic missiles. A four-dimensional radar is capable of identifying targets not only by range, height and speed, but also by its size, just like the radars of the Russian S-400 air defense system do. The TRML-4D radar unit includes an onboard power generator and can be transported by any truck. While one TRML-4D radar has been delivered to Ukraine, 3 more will be delivered in 2023.
The crew of the Russian Tor-M2 air defense system spoke about their combat work on UAVs in Ukraine. The calculation shot down the UAV of the army of Ukraine "Fury" and "Valkyrie". SAM Tor-M2 is considered one of the best systems for working on small targets.
The Ukrainian army began to use the Swedish light anti-ship system RBS-17. The complex is capable of firing at ground targets. The Robotsystem 17 was developed in 1987 and is a transportable tripod for a rocket launcher. RBS-17 uses the American AGM-114C Hellfire missile with a high-explosive fragmentation warhead and a semi-active laser seeker that requires target illumination. Several RBS-17 launchers can operate under the control of one observation station. The RBS-17 complex was discontinued in the nineties. The firing range of the RBS-17 complex is 10 km.
A Russian Ka-52 helicopter attacked an infantry fighting vehicle of the Ukrainian army with a Vikhr guided missile. Filming of the battle in the Svatovo area.
A Russian Su-35 fighter dropped bombs, presumably a FAB-250, and evaded a Ukrainian soldier's MANPADS missile. The location of the battle in Ukraine is unknown, the FAB-250 bombs seem to slow down, as the explosions occur at the end of the video.
The pilot of the Russian Su-34 fighter-bomber spoke about combat work in Ukraine. Each star on the body of the aircraft is 10 sorties. The main purpose of the sorties of the Su-34 crews is to search for the air defense of the Ukrainian army, which works sporadically, which is why it is difficult to detect.
The Ukrainian army began to use the German IRIS-T SLM air defense system. The medium-range air defense system IRIS-T SLM was created on the basis of an aviation missile by Diehl Defense. The air defense system began to be mass-produced in 2014, but so far it has not yet been adopted by Germany. The complex uses only the Sweden version and Egypt. Perhaps the supply of air defense systems to Ukraine will help the sales of the complex on the world market. The IRIS-T SLM air defense system is a cross between the Russian Buk-M3 and TOR air defense systems. The complex uses IRIS-T air-to-air missiles. They are equipped with an infrared homing head used at the final stage of the missile's flight, the missile's speed is Mach 3. The launch range of the IRIS-T SLM missile is 40 km, the reach in height is 20 km. Judging by expert opinions, the complexes are inferior in some ways and superior in some respects to the air defense systems of Russia. There are many opinions on them, but so far air defense systems are not very popular on the market. Among the shortcomings, the possibility of recapturing the target with an infrared head at low altitudes is noted, but all this is guesswork, since the complexes did not participate in hostilities. The standard equipment of the air defense system includes a command post, radar and launchers with anti-aircraft missiles. The cost of the IRIS-T SLM complex is 178 million euros, missiles are 400 thousand euros.
Footage of the assembly, launch and combat operation of the Russian Kub-BLA kamikaze drone. The Cube was developed in 2019 by ZALA AERO, a member of the Kalashnikov concern. The drone is made of radar-absorbing materials, which makes it virtually invisible to the radar and air defense systems of the enemy. The drone develops a speed of up to 130 kilometers per hour and carries a payload of 3 kg, the duration of the drone flight is 30 minutes. Advantages of the drone "Cube", hidden launch, high accuracy of bombing and ease of use. More details about the work of the drone in Ukraine in the video.
the air battle with the Su-24 tactical front-line bomber of the Ukrainian Air Force. Developed in 1975, the MiG-31 still remains unsurpassed in the class of heavy fighters.
An episode of the work of PMC Wagner in Ukraine has been published. After storming a stronghold in the Zaitsevo area, the soldiers of the PMC Wagner take prisoners of the Ukrainian army in the Bakhmut direction.
The Ukrainian army received the first Armtac 400 demining vehicle manufactured by the British company Armtrac Ltd. The Armtrac 400 is the largest in the British manufacturer's line of demining equipment. The machine is equipped with a 3-meter rotary cultivator that plows the ground to a depth of 55 cm and withstands the detonation of anti-tank mines equivalent to 10 kg of TNT. According to the developers, a skilled operator of the complex can clean more than 2.5 thousand square meters in an hour. The complex can be controlled by an operator from an armored cabin equipped with air conditioning, or from a remote control, being at a distance of up to 800 meters from the car. The cost of Armtac 400 is about 500 thousand dollars.
A column of military and automotive equipment of the Ukrainian army came under attack by Russian artillery in the Nikolaev-Krivoy Rog direction. According to preliminary data, an armored vehicle of the Ukrainian army and three vehicles used by the military were destroyed.
One of the commanders of the PMC "Wagner" revealed the details of the rapid offensive of their units in the battles in Ukraine. As it turned out, PMC "Wagner" use the tactics of the fire shaft in their offensives. Details of the work of PMC "Wagner" in the video.
A miniature homemade sapper robot was created by Russian craftsmen. The main purpose of the machine is the clearance of territories from mines of the PFM-1 Petal type. There are no technical details of the machine, it is known that the weight of the robot is about 250 kilograms and it is controlled remotely, as can be seen from the video, the robot is quite fast.
Russia is moving troops to the settlements between Brest and Malorita, this is in the west of Belarus. Directly to the south are the Ukrainian cities of Lutsk and Lvov. Officially, this is not commented on in any way, military analysts report that this is supposedly being done to block the western border of Ukraine and this should have been done at the very beginning. If Russian troops reach the city of Stryi in the Lviv region of Ukraine, it will be possible to block almost the entire border and limit the supply of weapons to Ukraine.
The commander of one of the Russian tanks participating in the battles in Ukraine is eighteen-year-old Daniel. Despite their young age, this crew already had three enemy tanks destroyed.
The Mi-24 helicopters delivered by the Czech Republic to Ukraine appeared on video. In the video, you can see how the Mi-24 helicopter of the Ukrainian Air Force launches unguided missiles in the pitch-up mode. The pitch-up mode allows you to attack with unguided missiles without entering the air defense coverage area. This method is used by Russian and Ukrainian aviation.
