The Russian army went crazy, beating up tens of thousands of drones, and the Ukrainian army rummaged

Mondo Military Updated on 2024-01-19

The Russian army is crazy, tens of thousands of drones are scrapped in one meal, the Ukrainian army rummages through warehouses and brings out "veterans", and if you don't use it, it's too late.

Foreword: After the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, the Russian army has been relying on advanced equipment such as armor, artillery, and fighters to occupy a dominant advantage

Next, let's take a look at the current situation of the Russian-Ukrainian war, and is there any equipment that can fight in the Ukrainian army's ** warehouse?

1. The Russian army's electronic warfare is crazy and has achieved a lot of results

In recent times, the West has discovered that the electronic warfare capabilities of the Russian army on the battlefield have been greatly improved, andThe Ukrainian army has become a victim of electronic hunting in the 21st century.

In fact, the United States and the West are very clear about the comprehensive electronic warfare capabilities of the Russian army, and the British media reported that over the years, the Russian army has developed a large number of advanced electronic warfare equipment, and its main goal is to deal with the network information system that NATO is highly dependent on.

And the Ukrainian army is really very different, the electronic warfare ** equipped with it is basically from the Soviet period, and the technical level has long been backward.

Therefore, after the start of the Russian-Ukrainian war, the Russian army, with its advanced electronic warfare capabilities, took the lead in paralyzing Ukraine's national communication system, and many command systems of the Ukrainian army were also damaged.

Fortunately, Western military aid arrivedA large number of technologically advanced ** equipment helped the Ukrainian army offset the local superiority of the Russian army in electronic warfare, so as to survive the "biggest crisis" in the early days of the war.

At the same time, the West also seized the weakness of the Russian army's poor situational awareness on the battlefield, commanding small units of the Ukrainian army to intersperse many times and raid the Russian army's large corps.

2. The Ukrainian army loses nearly 10,000 drones every week

But the self-confidence of the Ukrainian army is always overinflated.

After all, Russia is a military-industrial power that has inherited most of the legacy of the Soviet Union, and its technological heritage is far beyond the reach of Ukraine. After a period of pain, the Russian army's electronic warfare units fully mastered NATO's first-class combat means, and then made large-scale adjustments in tactics and deployment.

At this time, the West made another surprising discovery.

For example, the 155 mm "Excalibur" GPS-guided artillery shells equipped by the Ukrainian army often deviate from the target after launch, and the GMLS long-range guided rockets and ATACMS missiles used by the "Hippocampus" often turn a corner.

There are also JDAM-ER guided gliding bombs and "Storm Shadow" cruise missiles, which are simply not capable of creating a lethal threat to the Russian army.

In addition, there was the "Starlink" system that was in the limelight at the beginning of the war. In the Battle of Kharkov, it played a huge role, but after the Russian army was equipped with a new generation of electronic countermeasures, "Starlink" was also blinded, and the communication network of the grassroots units of the Ukrainian army was at risk of complete disintegration.

In this case, the UAVs used by the Ukrainian army in large quantities are also facing a huge threat, and some analysts point out that the Ukrainian army is estimated to lose nearly 10,000 UAVs every week.

What's more critical is that the successive losses of important cities have made the Ukrainian army lose face.

3. The second line of defense has been broken, and the Russian army is pursuing the victory

Although the Ukrainian side did not officially announce that the "big **" operation had failed or stopped, in the eyes of the West, the outcome of the battle of the Ukrainian army was doomed.

On the one hand, for almost half a year, the Ukrainian army has been mired in a war of attrition, and the recovered territory is strategically almost negligible, and at the same time,The territory actually controlled by the Russian army has expanded by more than 500 square kilometers compared with the beginning of this year.

On the other hand, the nine elite brigade-level units personally trained by NATO have also been exhausted on the battlefield, and all kinds of Western aid have basically been beaten to the ground, and the so-called "big **" has no chance of winning.

More critically, the Russian army's military operation has opened up a posture, opening up multiple fronts at the same time, attacking simultaneously in the Kupyansk, Svato, Crimea, Veliko Novohilka, **Mut and Avadiivka regions.

A few days ago, the elite of the Russian army "Wagner" and the joint commando team composed of the Donetsk Corps,A major breakthrough was made in the south-east direction of the city of Avadiivka, the successful capture of the industrial fortress and the breakthrough of the 2nd line of defense of the Ukrainian army.

For the Ukrainian army, if it continues like this, I am afraid that it will not be able to survive this winter.

4. If you don't use "trump card**" anymore, it's too late

Against such a difficult background, the Ukrainian army finally took out the most anticipated "trump card**".

According to the reportU.S.-aided M1A1 main battle tanks have been deployed to the front lines, and these tanks are well suited to Ukraine's immediate defense needs right now.

Moreover, they are an important manifestation of U.S. support for Ukraine, which means that the U.S. attaches great importance to strengthening Ukraine's defense infrastructure.

In the ** released by the Ukrainian side, the M1A1 main battle tank is sprayed with dark green forest livery. The report mentions,The tanks belong to the M1A1 "Situational Awareness (SA)" model, which the US Army is armed with 650 units.

They are not the latest M1A2 models that the United States promised to supply to Ukraine earlier, and they are not equipped with depleted uranium shells, but the M1A1 SA has some enhancements over the base model.

For example, the upgraded laser rangefinder can accurately measure distances of 200-8000 meters, in addition, the tank is equipped with a new remote-controlled ** station, which allows accurate shooting while driving, and soldiers do not have to risk leaning out to operate machine guns.

However, the US media pointed out that the number of M1A1 tanks proposed by the United States is not large and cannot help the Ukrainian army decide the direction of the war, said Mark Cancian, a retired colonel of the US Marine CorpsIn this case, it is useless to send a small tank unit, and to carry it out is to send it to death.
