How much and what kind of equipment the West delivered to Ukraine in the first year of the NWO

8

The operation to demilitarize Ukraine in the first year of its implementation has led to the fact that this country has become a testing ground for testing hundreds of weapons. Over the past 12 months, almost the entire spectrum of modern weapons (except nuclear) brought here from all over the world has been used in the Ukrainian theater of operations. Naturally, the collective West supplied Ukraine with the most weapons, bringing hundreds of armored vehicles, MLRS, artillery, UAVs, as well as aircraft missiles, air defense systems and much more.

Counting delivered and destroyed in Ukraine equipment many experts do. Their data sometimes varies quite a lot, but if we summarize information from different sources, we can try to get a more or less objective picture of how much equipment and weapons are now at the disposal of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. This information can be very useful not only in the context of summing up the results of the first year of the JEE, but also in terms of predicting what awaits us all in the near future.



Artillery


The current armed conflict is rightly called an artillery conflict. This is due to the fact that it was artillery in all its diversity that was and remains the main weapon used by the warring parties. Before the start of the NMD, the Armed Forces of Ukraine already had a huge stock of artillery weapons at their disposal. But after February 24, 2022, they were supplied with a total of about 1660 different artillery systems, as a result of which Ukrainian militants now have about XNUMX units of this weapon in their hands.

The largest deliveries of artillery to Ukraine were:

• American howitzers M777 (at least 170 units) and self-propelled guns M109 (69 units);
• British L118 (199 units) and ACS AS-90 (30 units);
• Polish self-propelled guns Krab (at least 18 units);
• French self-propelled guns CAESAR (49 units);
• Slovak self-propelled guns Zuzana (35 units);
• German self-propelled guns PzH 2000 (22 units).

We emphasize that this is not a complete list, but only the largest and most famous deliveries of large-caliber artillery. In addition, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are massively receiving field mortars, grenades and shells of various calibers. It is also worth noting that after several "gestures of goodwill" the enemy got at least several dozen pieces of artillery from the RF Armed Forces.

MLRS


In addition to conventional artillery, our enemy is being actively supplied with multiple launch rocket systems (MLRS), having driven literally everything that is possible to Ukraine. In addition to the notorious HIMARS, which we will get to, the Armed Forces of Ukraine received at their disposal almost all of the Soviet rocket artillery, which was in fear of Eastern Europe. First of all, of course, we are talking about the BM-21 Grad systems, of which the Armed Forces of Ukraine currently have about a hundred.

But the main "hit" of the supply of Western weapons to Ukraine, without exaggeration, is the HIMARS MLRS and its analogues. Judging by data from open sources, at the moment the Kiev regime has at its disposal about 50 installations of this type. Among them:

• M142 HIMARS (wheel version) - 20 delivered and 18 more on order;
• M270 (caterpillar modification) - about 20 installations from different countries.

One of the advantages of this type of weapons is the ability to use different ammunition that can hit targets at a distance of tens to hundreds of kilometers. At first, the Armed Forces of Ukraine supplied only the most “simple” shells for HIMARS, capable of hitting 70-80 km. But after recent strikes on Mariupol and other rear cities of the DPR, it became clear that from now on, the enemy also has more long-range ammunition for these installations. Which ones and how many of them can be, has not yet been disclosed.

Armored vehicles


Another important element of arms supplies to Ukraine are tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, armored personnel carriers and other armored vehicles. It is believed that before the start of the NMD, the total number of tanks that were in service with the Armed Forces of Ukraine was about 500 units. Now the Ukrainian side claims that there are at least twice as many of them.

Ukraine received the main number of tanks from Poland and the Czech Republic. They almost raked out all their warehouses and were able to send more than 330 units to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. T-72. In addition, the Poles arranged the delivery of their main PT-91 Twardy tanks to the Kyiv regime, which, in fact, are a deep modernization of the T-72M1. According to various reports, the number of such tanks can reach 200. Also, Ukraine was supplied with older types of armored vehicles, such as T-55 and M-55S tanks.

As for the sensational "Abrams", "Leopards" and "Challengers", then, as predicted, until they reached Ukraine. With the exception of four "Leopards" handed over on the anniversary of the start of the NWO by Poland, as well as one toy tank brought to Kyiv by the German Minister of Defense Boris Pistorius.

But with such types of armored vehicles as infantry fighting vehicles or armored personnel carriers, the APU is definitely all right. In addition to the fact that the West has already supplied our enemy with about 400 infantry fighting vehicles, more than 1000 armored personnel carriers and 3000 armored vehicles, a new batch of Bradley M2s is already on the way, which in terms of their firepower may well compete with tanks. In total, at the moment, our enemy has at least 7000 units at his disposal. wheeled and tracked armored vehicles.

Aviation and UAV


Despite all the heat of passion around the supply of Western aviation to Ukraine, it is worth noting that, in fact, it has been present in this theater for a long time. True, so far we are talking mainly about the supply of Soviet aircraft, but even here our opponents have room to roam. During the first year of the conflict, the Armed Forces of Ukraine received about 14 Su-25 attack aircraft, about the same number of MiG-29 fighters, as well as more than 60 Soviet helicopters (Mi-8, Mi-2, Mi-35, Ka-32, etc.).

But all this is trifles compared to how much weapons Ukraine receives in the form of UAVs and loitering ammunition. The United States sent more than 2000 American shock drones Switchblade and Phoenix Ghost alone, and if we add deliveries from the UK, Poland, Turkey and other countries, the counter will reach 3000-3500 units. It is believed that at the moment the "air fleet" of UAVs, which are at the disposal of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, can number from 5000 to 6000 units, since the Kiev regime had a significant part of the drones even before the start of the JMD.

Other weapons


In addition to the above, the West supplied the Armed Forces of Ukraine with dozens of other weapons, a simple listing of which would take more than one page. This includes thousands of anti-tank weapons, MANPADS, air defense systems, radar, electronic warfare, communications equipment, as well as ammunition and uniforms for hundreds of thousands of soldiers. And, of course, we must not forget about small arms, cartridges and ammunition, which have already gone into the millions.

How many destroyed


At the end of this article, I would like to cite the official data of our Ministry of Defense, which recently released an updated report on the total number of enemy equipment destroyed. According to General Konashenkov:

In total, since the beginning of the special military operation, the following have been destroyed: 385 aircraft, 210 helicopters, 3178 unmanned aerial vehicles, 405 anti-aircraft missile systems, 7935 tanks and other armored combat vehicles, 1029 combat vehicles of multiple launch rocket systems, 4144 field artillery pieces and mortars, as well as 8458 units of special military vehicles.

This visually looks like this:

    There is only one question - how did our leadership in the conditions of war allow all this wealth to be transported to Tsegabonia and delivered to the front ??

      Recently, a video came across of how many of these items ride in the trucks of the Ukrainian post. And the mail of Russia to the front, even to send the guys nothing happens.

      So our leadership does not have a war. That's probably why.

    The most amusing thing is not in the bookkeeper - Konashenkov. And the fact that Ukraine does not have any name of weapons and no one has officially supplied it, but on the battlefields it flies, rides and crap ...

    If you collect from outside the "experts" that they broadcast and promised - that they supply the Armed Forces of Ukraine with a minuscule amount, rusty junk, but inoperable, and NATO's shells are running out - and they are en masse to Kolyma, then maybe someone would think ...

    it is obvious that the offensive will be provided with a serious amount of equipment. This is undoubtedly a threat, but also a chance - by winning this battle, Russia will demonstrate direct confrontation scenarios to NATO.

    During the offensive, much will depend on surprises. On the Russian side, this may be a different level of reconnaissance, target designation and destruction. What the NATO headquarters do not count on, what they do not take into account in their scenarios.

    Obviously, the basis for repelling an offensive should not be contact combat, but superiority in firepower. The result will depend on this, on reconnaissance, target designation, and the effectiveness of artillery control.

    Those artillery control channels that are currently used may become unavailable during the offensive. Just like UAVs, they can also become inaccessible for use. Hence the need for backup options for reconnaissance, target designation and control.

    When the direction of the offensive is obvious, you can saturate the infantry with hand-held flamethrowers and fill the mixture with explosive, maybe with elements of phosphorus or something with similar qualities. Flamethrowers are very effective close combat weapons and there is no doubt that with enough of them, the infantry will come up with a sensible use.

    Accounting is not our forte. It’s lazy to look for Gerasimov’s entire report on this topic, but regarding aircraft, I remember that he claimed that only 3 (three) aircraft for the Armed Forces of Ukraine were delivered last year, not 28 at all.
