KURSK: CV90's are Outflanking Russia in Kursk!

Thanks Sweden !!!!

[@johnwalsh4857]

this is just excellent advertising for future Swedish arms sales, meanwhile the Russian BMPs esp. the newest BMD-4 are wrecks with the Russian crews kaput with their vehicles esp. the tin can BMD-4. Western APCs are crew survival and tougher than the Russian BMPs.

[@MrCastodian]

True, but what is best in the end, all the high end expensive AIFW that takes years to replace or good enough that cost a small part that can be replaced fast? And when comparing losses we can se that the modern Russian AIFV and AFV is pretty good, they have more losses no doubt, but that’s also because they have more of them, when comparing the modern equipment the loss rate is even, it’s the same with Tanks. Can’t compare an AIFV from 1960s with a modern CV-90 or M2Bradly, with that logic we can compare BMP-3M with pbv 301 and call every western equipment bad based on that specific AIFV, or other old AIFV. And crew…Russian crew are not worse then Ukrainian crew. And tin can BMD…It’s not a comparable system, can’t compare an airborne AIFV with an CV -90, they were made for different tasks.

[@ddave2247]

I am Swedish person I agree. I am against this war (I am against war period) .. But I must admit, looking at how Swedish weapon-systems have performed in this conflict I agree with your assessment. The Archer is also doing very well and its even looking like some of our outdated weapon-systems like the rbs-70 (which I actually served on myself during my military service) is still usable. I dont want escalation (not that anyone listens to me) but I cant deny that I am very curious to see how our JAS-39 Gripen would fair in actual combat ... I mean I am man after all ... What man has not always been curious about what modern weapon-systems would be the best in actual combat with its peers? Haha

Weather check here - 2 more weeks of dry and sunny weather Overall, this isnt a bad thing for the Kursk operation. Ukraine still requires benefits of mobile warfare and has to mop up some Russian territorities, in particular those trapped in the western area. So at least two weeks to make things happen with good weather! However, same applies for the Donetsk direction - this seems to favor more the Russians in their attacks like near Prokrovsk. I checked that map as well - a same pattern for coming weeks. Dry and the temperature drops a bit but is still not very significant.

[@MrCastodian]

The problem is that mobile warfare does not work against an in trenches enemy, and Russian forces are that in the area were Ukraine attack now. If they invaded that area 4 weeks ago they would have taken it all the way to the river, now they let the Russians reinforce and in trench themself, and then mobile warfare is just a waste of fuel, Russia have Artillery, Air, Drone and EW advantage, and it’s not conscripts that Ukraine faced of with last time, it’s Marine Infantry and Airborne units. This counterattack is waste of troops, better to withdraw, shorten the defence line and move forces to Donbas.

[@cz1589]

@@MrCastodian You have trenches and you have trenches. You cant compare the surovikin line with what they can build in 4 weeks, close to the frontline in an area that can be shelled and visited with drones all the time. Your claims about EW and drones are close to desinformative. Ukraine has serious drone and EW support here, as well operational information and intelligence control. This push into Kursk is actual a great succes, and its even starts paying off more - Russians with 60.000 troops here. As you said, even some 'elite' units that cant be deployed on other fronts.

[@MrCastodian]

⁠​⁠​⁠@@cz1589Yea, but it is still trenched units and Russia have been proven to build good trenches. Disinformation? It’s a well proven fact that Russia have a way stronger electronic warfare and drone advantage in Kursk, proven by number of geolocations that exist. Did not say that Ukraine are inept, but it’s not comparable to Russia in this area. It’s a success in Kiev and from people like you, there are absolutely no serious western analyst that se this as an a curses, show me one? Ukraine losing ground in Donbas and in Kursk, they have lost many of its best troops in Kursk for what? An area we’re 15k people lived before the war, a few farms. And there are no 60k Russian forces, Ukraine claim that, and say they came from Donbas, but that was proven wrong a long time ago. But please, feel free to prove me wrong, I will gladly read all the sources you provide.

[@marsmaro343]

@@MrCastodian you make sense with your comment as it seems AFU are stuck between the rock and a hard place in Kursk . They are blocked from advancing further and find themselves in a big pocket that is being constricted while losing a lot of equipment and reserves, theyve killed and captured some Russians but they are being pushed out of their well fortified eastern front positions while bleeding heavily in Kursk. The uptick in himars losses around the Sumy region is alarming as they were brought too close to Kursk to provide support which made them easy pickings for the RUAF, that indicates how fraught that operation is and the longer it goes on the more likely it will get a chapter in the book of military blunders.as the Kursk offensive was meant to slow the Russian advance in the east but the Russians have enough reserves to cover them .. just my opinion

[@johanmetreus1268]

@@MrCastodian 650k is the number of losses inflicted since Feb 2022, and includes wounded as well.

[@WolfHeathen]

@@johanmetreus1268 That's the claim. Other sources say very different. They range from 50,000 up to almost 700,000 losses for Russia. The former Ukrainian DA claimed half a million Ukranian soldiers had died while Ukraine don't even report a tenth of that number, and that's despite Russia having consistently taken tens of thousands of square miles in the past 2 years and Ukraine has barely taken any. To claim almost 2.7 million casualties for Russia when their army is currently ~1.6 million (excluding the latest reinforcement decree of an additional 180,000 soldiers) makes no sense.

[@johanmetreus1268]

​@@WolfHeathen "To claim almost 2.7 million casualties for Russia when their army is currently ~1.6 million " Those two numbers have absolutely nothing to do with each other. If an army is 100k strong, it can have taken no losses at all, or have been replaced several times over. "despite Russia having consistently taken tens of thousands of square miles in the past 2 years and Ukraine has barely taken any." Again, two variables without correlation to each other. One aspect is that Bachmut costed a LOT of casualties for a very small area, while the Cherson offensive gained a lot of territory for relatively light losses. The other is that it is not necessary to kill the enemy to take the terrain, it is enough to make them stop holding it. For instance, if the threat of encirclement forces a withdrawal, the terrain is taken without any casualties at all in that place. We know that in every war, enemy casualties are overestimated for a number of various reasons, be it commanders wanting to look good and exaggerating, several soldiers shooting at the same target and each reporting a kill and so forth. Thus, the kill numbers given of the respective MoD should confidentially be regarded as the highest possible losses taken for the other side... while the reports like Meduzas where they searched and confirmed obituaries to strict criteria are the absolute minimums suffered. Any source stating a number outside those upper and lower limits can safely be disregarded as absolute nonsense.

Swesen sendt a whole lot of hese awesome vehicles to Ukraine, and Norway sendt around 200 winter personnel carriers, and I’m sure we will sendmore, and invest more in Ukraine.

hmm starting to think that perhaps the main thrust is following along the highway left of the rail line towards little gloshkovo (not the big one) NE in the direction of snagost. that looks to be a major road junction as well as a rail yard of some sort. any move north towards big gloshcovo would then be a covering action
