Russia strikes boldly!VDV airborne stunning Antonov airfield, what exactly is happening in Ukraine?
Wow!Staring at those shocking war scenes, my mood was like a roller coaster, soaring up all of a sudden, and then suddenly falling to the bottom. In the confrontation between Russia and Ukraine, there was one battle that simply stunned me, and that was the airborne raid on Antonov airfield by the Russian VDV. Not to mention how thrilling it is, it's a battle that shocks the whole world!
On February 24, 2022, the Russian-Ukrainian war officially began, and the surging flames of war instantly ignited the entire battlefield. The Russian army actually made a crazy and bold plan: to arm a fleet of *** aircraft to cover 200 VDV airborne troops and take Antonov International Airport, 10 kilometers outside the Ukrainian capital Kyiv. It's a shocking plan, like a movie plot. And the comparison of troops at this time is even more staggering, the Russian army only has 200 VDVs, while the Ukrainian side is an armored brigade, with 3,000 people, I was a little confused at the time.
However, the Russian VDV actually dared to challenge this huge disparity in forces, as if D**ID was against Goliath. They used the "merry-go-round" tactic, combined with the armed *** aircraft group, and successfully tore through the defense line of the Ukrainian heavy armored brigade. All this is really staggering, thinking about the fact that NATO has not dared to make such a big move since its establishment, and the Russian army actually did it, it is unbelievable.
Netizens also expressed their shock, and some praised the courage and tactical cleverness of the Russian army, believing that this is an operation that NATO cannot learn. However, some people began to question how the Ukrainian army could be so passive and defenseless against the VDV of 200 people. Everyone had a heated discussion on social **, full of expectations and curiosity about the development of the battle situation.
However, it's not that simple. Although the Ukrainian army was pushed out of the Antonov airport, they destroyed the runway before departure, which plunged the Russian army into chaos. The Russian VDVs were originally ambitious and seized the airport, but they did not expect that the trap set by the Ukrainian army completely disrupted their plans. This airborne raid seemed easy, but it became difficult in an instant.
The excellent counterattack performance of the Ukrainian army is impressive. They made full use of the terrain of the airport and took strong countermeasures, which made the Russian army VDV suffer. The commander of the heavily armored brigade had anticipated the surprise attack of the Russian VDV, and although he failed to hold the airfield, he destroyed the airstrip before leaving, forming a strong defensive line. This excellent response makes people can't help but praise the Ukrainian army, as if seeing the heroic resistance of d**id at this moment.
The tide of battle fluctuated near the airport, with a fierce street battle between Russian VDVs and Ukrainian forces. Although the Russian VDV was driven out of the airport at night, they were not discouraged. During the day, a counter-charge actually recaptured the lost airfield. It's unbelievable that 200 lightly armed soldiers managed to fight 6,000 heavily armored troops!However, despite the success of the battle, they were eventually encircled and annihilated due to the lack of backup.
In order to keep this elite force, Russia sent armed *** to fly over the airport 24 hours a day to provide fire support to VDV soldiers. This kind of all-round support is quite rare in the war, and it has also put the Ukrainian army under immense pressure. Despite the loss of one Ka-52 armed ***, they persevered and supported the VDV without stopping. The intensity of this battle is simply beyond everyone's imagination.
In the changing tide of the war, the Ukrainian army finally drove the Russian army VDV out of the airport, but it was not over. The Russian army adopted the method of ground troops, and the light armored units directly broke through the encirclement of the Ukrainian army, and finally picked up 200 VDVs. This scene is a bit like a hero rescue in a movie, but the reality is far more thrilling than in the movie.
To sum up, the battle was simply magnificent, and every turn was full of the impermanence and cruelty of war. Whether it is the audacity of the Russian VDV or the excellent counterattack of the Ukrainian army, it is breathtaking. The battle was not only a contest of strength and strategy, but also a test of courage and perseverance.
However, what makes me feel helpless is that even in such a fierce battle, the Ukrainian army cannot escape the fate of being beaten passively. The two forces that were once brought out by the Soviet Union are now showing very different fates. After the so-called "Westernization reform", the Ukrainian army has turned out to be nondescript, and the level of tactics has dropped sharply. Such a performance makes people can't help but choke their hearts and sigh where the glory of the past has gone.
There is no doubt that the Russian VDV showed great combat effectiveness in this battle, but I prefer to believe that this is not only a victory for the Russian army, but also a victory for Chinese power. This kind of brave performance is deeply admirable, and it also makes me more confident in the future of the team.
Of course, the cruelty and impermanence of war are also fully demonstrated in this battle. The dedication of every serviceman deserves our admiration, whether it is the Russian VDV or the Ukrainian army. This battle has made me more aware that peace is not easy to come by, and that peace is cherished and everyone who strives for peace. I hope that there will be fewer wars and more peace in the future.
