Armchair General's DonbAss Derailed Discussion Thread (Topics Include History, Traps, and the Ongoing Slavic Civil War plus much much more)

No invasion markings on the intact MT-LBs though.

Yep and here is more auditing of his work by an actual US Veteran who doesn't drink the Kool-Aid:




Bigger picture this reveals: The Russians were deliberately using unencrypted comms to send fake shit out to listening and gullible people. They did the same thing in 2014 Donbass Struggle and it was a vital part of turning the tide and defeating the Ukrainian Army. It would also explain all those Generals turning back up alive after being reported dead.

@Zachowon is one of the gullible fools who fell for it and should have known better. Tells us all that he sucks at his job and will get people killed.



Comrades, language, there are still women and children in the city. We must keep it family friendly.



Comrade, we have to pay for all this destruction. Our Insurance doesn't cover this.



More house clearing.
 
Everything on his list is linked to photographic evidence of the losses. It's already validated. Why is his "failure" to validate an already validated thing disqualifying? Shouldn't these Kremlin-cum-gargling shills be able to debunk it? Oh, right, of fucking course they can't.

No it is not, and actual experts looking at these photos can't substantiate the bulk of the claims due to lack of markings, incorrect weather, no one around, in a few cases clear Russian Troops in Uniform with captured Ukrainian Gear being mislabeled. Wrecks so destroyed as to make verification impossible. Etc.

Oryx's list is utterly worthless.
 
Al-Jazeera accidentally recorded Ukrainian troops traveling via ambulance.

Reposting the fakeass story about Russia dropping 50 paratroopers into the waters off odessa was the biggest goof-up. Don’t sniff your own paint.
 
Not only meeting Kadyrov, but also with a Russian General reported to have been killed. Kadyrov brings the dead back apparently. Allah Ackbar Comrade.

But in seriousness, unless the Russians make an official announcement, the soldier is alive.



Comrade, quickly take this medal and smile and people will forget the lie we told.



Given the withdrawal of all VDV Units from Kyiv Region Front and a known concentration of VDV units near Enerhodar, looks like we will soon see another mass paratrooper assault. If Kherson had not fallen and its bridges had been blown, they would likely hip Zaporizhia. But since Kherson fell, likely to be used to seize Kryvyi Rih. Successful seizure of this City is game over for the Ukrainians. RuAF can use it to strike at will at all potential Dnieper Crossings with its rotary wing crafts and intercept any escape attempts easily.

The more one looks, the more clear it is that Russia never actually expected to seize Kherson and breach the Dnieper there. Kherson group was just to watch the Dnieper and make sure the UkA did not try to come across it there while the Sea of Azov was secured. Russian Generals were just as shocked as the UkA high command when Russian Tanks just rolled across the bridge and decided to run with it and see what they could get. Which was a solid lodgment opening up Kryvyi Rih as a target.



The new shipment of drones didn't last long. And combined with photos of damaged munitions for TB-2s being captured, its likely the TB-2 was largely a non-issue with few successes and then promptly shot down.



Mariupol nearing completion as the Russians continue to give the UkA no quarter for making them fight for the city block by block.



Place military weapons and formations in a civilian area, the protection to the Civilians is forfeited.


Comrade fsb - all generals all alive? Gerasimow,too?
1.Ukrainians lied aboud snake island,but russian told truth about Kiev,which they never try to capture.SUUUURE.
Russian never tried to take Kherson,and do that by accident- WHICH MEAN,THAT UKRAINIANS WOULD LIBERATE IT NOW IN MORDOR SPEECH.

2.All Tr2 drones are destroyet and not issue.AND THAT IS WHY RUSSIAN COULD NOT ADVANCE.

3.Marjunpol arleady fallen,but russians still could not take it.BECOUSE NAZIS THERE FIGHT.So,great russian army could not defeated not even soldiers,but nazis.

4.Those nazis use human schields - AGAINST RUSSIANS,WHO ARLEADY BURNED CITY? REALLY? using human schields have sense against people who care about cyvilians,not kgb psychos.

5.Russians are killed only when russians say so? REALLY ? so,the same dudes who lied that they do not start war,and later that they would take Kiev,now start talking truth?

A quick reminder that the actual commanders of Russian Troops are not actually known for OpSec reasons unless the Russians announce their names. Gen. Mordvichev for example was allegedly killed in a strike on a command post due to intercepted radio calls. Issue though is that Russia is using fake radio transmissions for its own purposes and the bridging of the Donets near Izium caught UkA by surprise as they had no indications of it from Radio Reconnaissance.



Europe knows which way the wind is blowing. Russia is and always has been a First Rate Power and Putin's bitchslap to all the EU leaders just reminded them of that fact.







Shamelessly stealing a Hezbollah Nasheed Comrades? Have you no shame? Other than that looks like a UkA Marine along with some territorial defense volunteers and maybe one UkA Paratrooper captured. Probably an ad hoc unit formed as the defenses were broken and units were mashed together.



Any US official claiming they know how many Russians are killed is to be dismissed immediately. Russia has been releasing the names of the deceased and people claimed to be dead have a habit of showing up alive later.

I also find it hilarious that the Pentagon feels the need to give briefings on a war they are not involved in, instead of you know, explaining how they lost to the Taliban and can't win the wars assigned to them.


Poor,naive child.
Russians talking truth about their loses? since when?

UE covering before mighty first rate power Russia? poor child,thera are GERMANS,WHO ARE HIDDEN RUSSIAN ALLIES.THEY ARE HELPING THEM,BUT COULD NOT DO IT OPENLY AS LONG AS PUTIN MURDER CHILDREN.

Chechen traitors still could not capture Mariunpol.Which is defended by nazis,not soldiers.Such a great guys they are !

USA not involved? who is giving weapons and recon info to ukrainians,then?
And running from Talibans - you knew,that it was Biden work,not Pentagon.

Back on the job.



Build up in Kherson with redeployed units and individual replacements to bring units back up to full strength.



The hunt continues.



If you don't understand this, you weren't paying attention. Kyiv units had V and O and in combined total amounted to 40,000 troops. The bulk of the Russian Army and Messaging was on the Z and Square Z units on Kharkov, Donbass and Kherson fronts where the bulk of the combat power was.

Kyiv was never the intent except in the minds of "Western Experts."


Big if true and would be the first high level defection.


So id shoigu come back from Gulag to say that USA are cyberattacking,it means,that kgbstan would cyberattack.It is Mordor speech,remember.
2.Redeployed from kherson? so,ukrainians are really winning there.
3.Kadirowites still could not tale Marjunpol,we get it arleady.
4.KGBstan tried to take Kiev,failed,and now say that it was planned from the start,and only goal is Donbass.
IF YOUR IDOLS REALLY WONTED THAT,THEN DONBAS WOULD BE ARLEADY TAKEN WITH ALL KGBSTAN FORCES SEND THERE.
 
Jesus dude, calm down.



Also, I wasn’t aware I’d time traveled back into the 1940’s.

I am not Jesus,you would see difference when you meet HIM.
And no,we are not in 1940 - both soviets and germans have real armies in those times.
About UE - once it was ruled by England,France and Germany,but England left,France is no longer important,so UE now do what germans want.

What about the reports of Russian mutinies and fragging?

Western/Ukrop propaganda/fake news?
 


Most of Italy right now.

Regardless of political orientation.

I swear many in the left and right (and extremes) would PROBABLY gladly side with the Russia if they invaded.

Maybe I am exaggerating and / or being hyperbolic, BUT the Italian gov would LIKELY find itself with 2/3 of the population potentially be fifth columnists because they are so much fucking despised.

The remaining third wouldn't lift a finger for them out of cowardice or are part of the army and law enforcement.

PROOF :

 
Not going to lie - if it was cheap enough, I'd totally go for one of those Scooby Doo vans. Probably be a fun field-beater out here on the prairie. :D
I think I know why the DPR is using Scooby Doo vans.

They have to fight expose the "Ghost of Kiev", the "13 of Snake Island", and other supernatural creatures that the Ukrainian SS is summoning via their occult powers. :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:

You know, if you're going to complain about pro Ukrainian sentiment being suffused with propaganda and dubious claims spawned from the fog of war, it would make more sense to do that in an environment where that's actually happening.

Snake island has barely been mentioned since it happened, and the ghost has come up twice in the past week that I recall, once by planefag noting that the degree to which pro russian posters will deny its even possible is strange, and once by me, in which I noted most knowledgeable people probably know he's likely not real but will keep saying he is purely because it gets under the skin of pro-Russia posters.

Pushing this mischaracterization of the other side doesn't help you, because anyone reading the thread can see it's not true, and so it doesn't make the Ukrainian side look bad, it makes your side look bad because you're busy fighting a strawman version of the pro-ukraine posters.

And by "actual experts" you mean random Russian bots on the internet.
 
Oh, i still remember the number of times the US declared some ISIS or Al-Qaeda dude killed, and said bastard re-appear time and again.
Face it, during warfare thinking that someone is dead and is being dead are very different things.
Like, for example:
You receive info that the target is in place X, so you bombard place X. And report the target dead.
But, he can survive or not even be present.
That happened time and again in all wars.
 
Armchair Warrior is a US Combat Veteran from Iraq and Afghanistan. He is as pro-American as they come, but doesn't do his own stash because of how well that worked in Iraq and Afghanistan.

The same is true of the others.

Take their advice and don't do your own stash.

What the hell is "don't get high on your own supply" supposed to mean as advice for how to do amateur open source military intelligence on twitter? Are you suggesting that people should ignore the intelligence assessments of friendly sources and use intel from the enemy, because something something russiaboo obsession with insisting the US lost the afgan war?
 
Most likely, along with a handful of actual cases that is normal in all Armies.



EU to get gas has to open an account in a Russian Bank to convert Euros to Rubles to buy gas. Petrodollar is dead. Putin will likely follow up by requiring all Russian Exports be paid for in the same way.



Well this was an interesting rescue mission UkA actually attempted. I recall a similar operation in the Donbass War where DPR misinformation warfare led to a similar trap being laid. You think the UkA would learn that Russia has actual encrypted communications, couriers, and untappable field phones and a history of trolling the shit out of people.



Well this will take a little work to fix.



Ukraine's message strategy is disjointed, contradictory, and at odds with reality and disproven quickly.



Yep. US DoD statements should be discarded without question. They aren't fighting this war and have zero actual clue of the ground situation or what Russia's plans are or their OOB.


1.Russians do not kill their officers,and other armies are doing the same.

2.Russia wont be payed in rubel.EU agree- poor naive child,EU mean germany,and germans are Putin allies,who must hide it as long as Putin is murdering children and ukrainians are still fighting.So yes,they would do whatever Putin want.

3 two ukrainians heli was schoot.According to you,they do not have air forces anymore,right?

4.Yes,your idols desroyed Marjunpol.But - why do you think,that they would rebuild anything?

5.USA have satelites,so they knew when russian are,and see where fighting is,too.
And which info whe should hear? russian? dudes,who first said that they do not attack,then that they would take Kiev ,and now that they never tried that?







Despite being larger than it started out at, UkA is less well armed, not capable of depot or battalion shop maintenance work, no longer has a Navy with ships, its remaining aircraft are bunker queens with very little ability to operate, and they have to allocate fuel carefully and use civilian vehicles to move the bulk of their men and equipment around. This all comes at the expense of their civilian economy which is imploding and causing more people to flee in search of food. UkA might not give out, but the economy of Ukraine certainly will and that will force a default loss on the UkA with no means to support itself.


So ,kgbstan could still no take Marjupol.Idiots.What they expected,when they said that there would be no prisoners?
they should act like soviets in Poand in 1939 - first promise everything,then take prisoners,then mass graves/gulags.
Putin is too stupid yo copy his idol.

Ukrainian army is destroyed - and that is why russians could not take Kiev.

Their economy is collapsing,unlike russians when they could not produce tanks anymore.
Their air forces are hangar queen,that is why russians could schoot 2 ukrainians heli.

I knew,that you must use kgbstan propaganda - but please,think sometimes.It not hurt.

P.S If russian mobilize and keep throwing fresh meat/reservists into meatgrinder,they would capture ruins of Kiev.
But tell me,would it really be victory?
