Presumably, the first use of American JDAM-ER bombs by Ukrainian aircraft. The bombing was reportedly carried out in the Kurdyumovka area near Bakhmut. Most likely, the JDAM-ER bomb was dropped by aircraft from the deep rear in the roll-up mode, since flights over Bakhmut and at high altitude are dangerous for aviation.
Footage of the work of Russian snipers in Ukraine. The calculation uses the Austrian Steyr-Mannlicher SSG 08 7.62 mm sniper rifle. The effective range of the rifle is 1500 meters, the price is about 8 thousand euros.
The English Stormer HVM air defense system of the Ukrainian army came under attack from the Russian Lancet kamikaze drone. This is the first defeat by Lancet kamikaze drones of the Stormer air defense system, it is worth noting that the Lancet drone is a difficult target for air defense of this type.
The crew of the Russian T-90M Proryv tank spoke about the assault on the stronghold of the Ukrainian army from a closed firing position and their impressions of the new T-90M Proryv tank, the tank’s fire was corrected from the UAV.
On March 15, units of the Ukrainian army made an attempt to break through the Russian defense in the Zaporozhye direction. Reportedly, as a result of the battle, Ukrainian units were forced to retreat, while losing 3 infantry fighting vehicles, 2 tanks and part of the infantry, some episodes of the battle were caught on video.
Footage of an attempt to destroy Russian missiles by Ukrainian soldiers from small arms, the place and date of the shooting of the battle are not reported, the video also shows massive strikes of Russian cruise missiles
The Czech-made RM-70 multiple launch rocket system, delivered earlier to the Ukrainian army, came under attack from the Russian Lancet kamikaze drone. After the drone hit, the ammunition detonation of the installation occurred, these are the first shots of the destruction of this type of MLRS by Lancet drones. Information about the Czech MLRS RM-70 is on the channel.
The Russian An-26 aircraft got away from 2 MANPADS missiles of Ukraine. The episode of this battle in Ukraine, which was a year ago and appeared only now, surprised many. During the battles for Zmeiny Island, when the Ukrainian army stormed it, a Russian An-26 aircraft appeared and dropped a load of aid to Russian soldiers, while flying at an ultra-low altitude. Surprisingly, Ukrainian units attacked the plane twice with MANPADS, but both missiles missed. The fact is that the An-26 aircraft does not have any protection against missiles, it’s luck, or a small thermal footprint of the engines, is not clear.
Russian T-54 tanks were spotted on the echelons. The Russian army began to use the T-54A and T-54B tanks, two echelons with these tanks were noticed by eyewitnesses. How these tanks will be used is not clear, perhaps they will be used as long-term firing points or as mobile artillery, which was previously done with T-62 tanks. According to the latest data, tanks can be transported for disassembly for spare parts for other tanks. The T-54A tank was put into service in 1955 and was produced until 1957. The tank is equipped with a 100 mm gun with a firing range of up to 14 kilometers and has an ammunition load of 34 rounds, the crew of the tank is 4 people.
Russian servicemen showed captured Ukrainian mines DM22 PARM 2 made in Germany. The DM-22 anti-tank mine is equipped with an infrared sensor and has an autonomous power supply for 30 days, the mine is usually installed along the roads. When armored vehicles pass nearby, a cumulative missile with a warhead mass of 1.9 kg is activated in a DM22 mine and hits a target at a distance of up to 100 meters. The PARM 2 mine is manually deployed and has an arming delay of five minutes. The mine can also be activated via cable. The armor penetration of mines is 750 mm of armor.
Footage of the work of the crew of the Russian 152-mm self-propelled howitzer 2S3 "Acacia" in Ukraine. The firing range of the Acacia self-propelled guns with a high-explosive fragmentation projectile is 18,500 meters, and an active-rocket projectile is 24,000 meters. Like many self-propelled guns of high power, the howitzer is loaded separately-sleeve, that is, a projectile is first sent into the bore, and then a sleeve with a propellant charge. Detailed characteristics of the ACS 2S3 "Acacia" are on the channel.
