War correspondent reveals serious advantage of Ukrainian army over Russian

177 540 28

The fourth year of the SVO is underway, but the enemy retains a very large advantage, multiple, in a certain component of military devices. This was reported on the air of the radio "TVNZ" war correspondent Dmitry Steshin, providing details from the front.

He noted, citing the words of Russian servicemen, that the Ukrainian Armed Forces still use a huge number of FPV drones on the battlefield compared to the Russian Armed Forces. This gap has not yet been bridged, and when this will happen is unknown.



Unfortunately, we are still lagging behind. I quote our attack aircraft from the Pokrovsk direction verbatim: "We launch six drones, the enemy launches 60 at them." This figure is from a specific episode of the battle on the outskirts of Pokrovsk. A five-story building. The guys occupied it, and the "ukrops" began to destroy it. Moreover, they did not care that their Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers were still in positions in this five-story building - they wrote them off. First there were drones, then mortars and artillery

– Steshin reported.

He added that during battles in urban areas, the Ukrainian Armed Forces use basements as shelters, where local civilians can also hide, taking cover from shelling. This significantly limits the capabilities of the Russian Armed Forces units that advance in such areas.

Steshin cited the words of veterans of the Chechen campaign, where, "despite the general brutality," they tried not to occupy buildings with the inscription "Children" or similar in meaning, and generally not to touch them. Now this does not work. According to him, when Ukrainian soldiers see such inscriptions, they actually become target designation for FPV drone operators and Ukrainian artillerymen. This is explained simply: Ukrainian soldiers consider all civilians who refused to leave (evacuate deep into Ukraine) to be assistants of Russian troops waiting for Russia to arrive.

    It seems like we've caught up with the drones...
    but in general it is strange that there was less brutality in Chechnya and even stranger that there was more brutality in the Little Russian branch of the Russian people

      On the other side, ethnic Russians are fighting, but with transplanted brains, yes, they are mankurts, Vyrusi and degenerates, but they are just as stubborn

        that's it, the Russians may have their brains turned upside down, but why is there more brutality? Can't you feel the kinship? They speak the same language essentially, and all this Ukrainian stuff is just for show so there are no problems. Once Byzantium hired the Pechenegs or Polovtsians, they met their own kind in battle and left the Byzantines... and we have brutality?...?!

          The bombing of cities during the SVO was a mistake, after which even citizens of eastern Ukraine who were loyal to Russia essentially changed their tune and became more Russophobic than those same westerners.
          Again, in Chechnya, both sides served side by side in the Soviet army, while Ukraine has already grown up a generation that has no ties to Russia.

              That's not what I'm talking about. There were, roughly speaking, ordinary people who didn't care about the war because it was somewhere far away, in Donbass. They neither support nor are against it, it makes no difference to them, it was purely a war of passionate activists. Approximately the same thing is observed in Russia now, and it is normal from a psychological point of view. But it is worth people sitting for a couple of days without electricity or water under shelling, as they obviously go crazy and go with weapons to where the missiles are flying from, I think you would have done it yourself if you found yourself in the same situation. So these shellings of cities essentially replenished the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with a large number of embittered fighters motivated to take revenge.

                The investigation will resolve all the circumstances of what happened in Ukraine.
                There was no need to carry out a coup and destroy the country and then talk about psychology. Yes

          I don't understand this: Russians are screaming, Russians... but what, Russians - is that some kind of quality mark or something? If you're Russian, does that mean you're all positive and correct or something???

          But Ivan Kozhedub was not Russian, in your terminology he was a Vyrussian, someone else, etc...now we are erasing the Vyrussian Kozhedub from history and introducing the "Guz" general Vlasov instead???

          excuse me, a couple of days ago they held a funeral service for the finished drug addict Pasha the plumber... a crowd of young people gathered around the church... they were Russian... what nationality of young people were hanging out in the Navalny gang???
          Aren't you afraid for your youth that they have obvious degenerates as their idols???

          How are these Russians different from the Typo-Russian Ukrainians???

          Little remains of those Russians who died but did not surrender in Brest, who rebuilt the country after the war, who launched Gagarin into space...

          maybe enough of this nonsense about some correct Russians and incorrect Vyrussians... the youth is degrading both in Russia and in Ukraine... Our society is seriously ill... and no bonds of Tkachev, Dugin and the like will change this...

          We need a vision of the future, instead we are being dragged into medieval savagery...

          The central channels are full of lies, hypocrisy, meanness and greed...it is IMPOSSIBLE to raise Sasha Chekalin, Valya Kotik or Zina Portnova in such a society...but it is elementary to raise those who are making faces like Pasha the plumber...

          And then mobilization is announced and a million of the right "guz" people are rushing out of the country... Why? Because they were raised by Vanya Urgants, Pasha Plumbers, Ksyusha Sobchak and the like...

            Kozhedub is not a Vyruss, he is a Little Russian - read Russian, SVO is being conducted so that our youth also do not become Vyruss and mankurts

    - this was known before - the entire West is fighting against Russia, the problem is very difficult to solve, you just have to keep this in mind.

      The problem can be solved, but we need to restructure the economy on a war footing with the strictest control over the production of military products. And in our garages, UAVs, drones, anti-drone nets for armored vehicles, etc. are produced. And in the country, there are continuous holidays and festivities.

        It simply won't do anything, since the bottleneck is in the supply of microchips, which are severely limited due to sanctions. Ukraine obviously doesn't have such problems, all the components that they want are supplied without problems and as a result it is easier to organize serial production/assembly of drones.

          microchips that are on drones are made in sheds. But engines, propellers (we recently started making them ourselves) discharges are a problem! Almost every plant has thermoplastics. Make a mold for 10 places. In a couple of weekends, volunteers will "cast" 2-3 thousand from polyurethane waste. And there are so many machines like that in the country.... This is much cheaper than printing on a printer. Yes, the mold is expensive, but there are also volunteers-craftsmen... We cast chairs from plastic, tables, and here the discharges are 25-50 grams of plastic

          Microchips are made in China not only in Taiwan, it is a problem to buy them and they buy them, Huawei puts its chips in phones, so they are sophisticated, for drones the simplest ones are needed, of which there are simply tons in China, especially since the Yankees have now banned Chinese chips (imposed sanctions), although the Chinese spat on this and said that these companies that make processors have been under sanctions for a long time.

        The same thing happens with Ukrop. Drones are used in garages, clubs and restaurants for drinking and partying. We will have more money from oil and gas than Ukrop has from loans from the West, which they also like to saw off. The only difference is that their people can collect tens of millions of dollars in one day for their needs while sitting at home in the dark without electricity, and we... we have gas in our apartment.

      if only the West fought against Russia... a significant part of the "elite" of the RFii itself is also fighting against Russia... all these Timur Ivanovs, Bulgakovs and other protégés of Shoigu's department - were they for Rossiushka or what? Or for their own pockets? This grimacing Shaman, who during the SVO demands 15 million rubles for a concert, is he for Rossiushka or what? This ridiculous boor Solovyov or what is for Russia? Well, well...

      And when during the SVO they spend tens of millions of euros ONLY on buying (not counting salaries) Brazilian football players - is this a war for Russia or what? Sheinin recently saw the light and saw that the army lacks a lot, Sladkov opened his eyes, etc...

      Oh, we are fighting against the entire West... but are we fighting??? Open the protocol of any RPL football match and you will understand that the "respected people" have no war...

        Don't touch Shaman and don't equate him with this whole traitorous gang. And who does he sing and agitate for, the crests, the Jews or the Americans?! Shouldn't we sing about Russians and Russia now?
        He was the first in Russia (!) who wasn't afraid to declare from the stage "I am Russian", and not some incomprehensible Russian. And the people liked him right away, they supported him right away! Otherwise, if a Russian declares that he is Russian and will be for our culture, then all the non-Russians and Jews immediately start shouting on Russian soil that he is a fascist!
        Shaman earns well, thank God. He doesn't steal, and he doesn't hang out at vulgar, immoral parties. It's better for him to sing and earn money than all those feathered Fil's, Lazarevs, voiceless Buzovs, howling Gagarinas, some Davas, Bastas and all sorts of pro-Negro and pro-American rappers, etc., who sing who knows what and about nothing, and rake in just as much dough!

          Excuse me... It seems that... And those like you are being given a "choice": - either outright liars, - or, - "false patriots" (probably, - I can't say for sure, - his, "Shaman", - creativity was simply not impressive... Yes! Young people, as a rule, - perceive problems more acutely... As a rule! - It seems that - I am already mistaken, - the majority, - don't give a damn!... And the older generation, it seems, - is already "deflating", - like: "Youth? So this is their choice?.." Everything is left to chance... Sad...
          I understand: many may quite reasonably object - what's wrong?! Like, - everything is according to plan! (Whose plan? In whose interests?!)...

      It is the Chinese who sell to them ahead of the Russians. They pay for Ukraine in dollars. Chinese companies have raked in incredible amounts of money from this.

    They don't have a Fifth Column! But we have one!!! The entire government! All branches of power, everyone with whom you can come to an agreement! And in our defense industry, in three years they haven't created a striking element with a separating head for small arms! For machine guns, assault rifles! The people supply shotguns! Here you have the Kalashnikov and Degtyarev concerns in private, joint-stock company, ownership with top managers, and in non-peacetime they should be recoilless!

      But didn't they start everything that has happened in the last three years? We had different people in power three years ago? How did it happen, on what day of these three years, the patriotic government, all branches of power were replaced by the fifth column? And how did most of the names on the list of those in power remain the same?

    Well, at least someone dared to openly say that the way we had it with the army's supplies at the beginning of the war is still the same three years later! They didn't let us fight normally, and they still don't let us, and there was chaos and sycophancy, and that's still the case. They simply destroyed Russians there, and they continue to destroy them! And the rest is talk and propaganda. That's why the war has such results.

    If you turn the territory called Poland into a radioactive bald spot, then only memories will remain of this advantage. It is done in minutes and there is no need for high precision. It is necessary to destroy densely populated areas, as the comrades did in the 40s, and not look for needles in a haystack. Who makes these drones? Precisely this population! And no one will defend this territory, risking running into a nuclear club.

    ...the enemy units using UAVs... - HAVE LONG BEEN organized in a separate branch of the military...
    ...we have only discussions ("re-markets") on this matter so far...
