The Kremlin tells us every day they shoot down all ATACMS, and yet there are thousands of videos showing them hit their targets. I wonder if the Kremlin realizes the entire world is laughing at them as a bunch of clowns and thugs 🤣🤣

This site is a limestone quarry which produces blocks for construction. These blocks are ideal for building on-site revetments from for missile storage. There are similar quarries in the area where pictures on google maps show the bricks. Thus, ammo storage being destroyed is a reasonable claim, though unprovable with this imagery.

It’s very hard to say what’s really going on. ATACMS achieves high accuracy at long range by using GPS / GLONASS. If the Russians have good EW then that’ll be jammed (maybe). If ATACMS navigation is jammed then its terminal accuracy will be poor. Hopefully, ATACMS has good ECM resistance, in which case, if the target was correctly identified and targeted it’ll be wrecked.

Then, more recently, the ATACMS took out 4 S400s, 2 S300's, a radar installation and a very important Fundament-M air defense system. Those were with the secret ATACMS the orcs didn't know about.

Since you sometimes flash some video on the screen right from the start that NEVER gets viewed. You can't even hit the back button because that damned settings menu pops up, again for 5 seconds. Just record a tiny lead in clip saying something like "heres another report..." then started that report and it would be SOOOO much better watching you

If you compare the burning marks with the last images then you can quite clearly see that they hit tree or forrest areas. But for sure with a purpose

@Nobodyisperfect-us6pk 16 күн бұрын

Sorry, but must not. With 160 km, it is just in range (165 km) of the ATACMS Block 1 M39 missiles, which Ukraine has first received and till now used. These were already for long time in storage to be upgraded to other versions, Ukraine has received and is receiving these, till now not upgraded. The Block 1 M39 are not really precise but also do not need as they are carrying 950 subammunitions. So these subammunitions will end up in a circle of 200 and more meters. It is likely, that some of the subammunitions will end up at the forest areas. As said these old versions are not really precise, even not GPS guided; as not precise they had to use cluster/sub- ammunition. Also if the subammunitions will hit an ISKANDER starter with missiles, it will pop and burning missile parts will end up in several hundred meters of distance. So these burning marks around this area can be easily been explained.

You know the problem with these types of missile attacks is that they amount to harassment attacks. They just slow an enemy down unless there's a follow up. Like you'd attack something just before you come in with a division. In order to destroy capabilities you need around the clock attacks. For example after Okinawa the Enterprise became the first in the world to do around the clock operations and they almost single handedly destroyed the Kamikaze threat. They would send the same pilots back to the same area again and again and again.

@W1se0ldg33zer 16 күн бұрын

I think the only times I've seen Ukraine do something like that has been on the Black Sea fleet and on a couple of larger SAM sites. Maybe they've done that more to other areas just not shown but the idea is to take out capabilities. Attacking someone once then leaving just doesn't really do much - like the Nazis would gather up a large amount of planes and attack something like Malta for example - so then they'd just repair the damage and continue on there. Just slowed the Allies down.

Ukraine with munitions is like many on food assistance. Often when they get their monthly allotment they spend it on more expensive foods instead of planning out the entire month. Then they do with very little at the end. No saving for later. Similarly, Ukraine gets a shipment of a limited quantity high value munitions, then burn through it right away. Unless US gave them 10s of thousands of ATACMS they are using them too fast. Also, why don't any of you creators talk about that the recruitment age of males (only) for Ukrainian soldiers is 27, TWENTY SEVEN. Their country is invaded, being destroyed, but they won't take the young men 27 and under, ( or under 27, not sure). They are thinking about lowering that to 25, big woop. While many countries that are supporting them, and their adversary, start at 18. This is causing the beginnings of wavering support.
