  2. Oof, solid hit. Is it normal to have such a large crew? was like 8 guys in there…

  3. Russia must seriously be running low on vehicles and tanks at this point.

  4. Yes Seargent Ivan, we waited until the first 2 mine clearance vehicles went in…..

  7. I saw that coming a mile away. It seems to be very common placing mines where burned out vehicles are blocking the road. Almost to the point where it would make sense to shoot the ground before driving around. It’s possible there are just too many recks to do this, but I was kinda expecting it to be the first reckage, but ended up being the second.

  8. Idk how peoples and ORYX are able to identify models for russian stuff, it’s just a cope-cages fest a this point…..

  9. It may be as simple as the troops heading back to the short segment of trench to take cover while the LT decides on what Plan B is for the mission, but I’m not seeing a lot of enthusiasm to press forward in what I assume is the intended direction of attack.

  10. Are they always conventional mines or are they using whatever a less loaded term is for IEDs?

    Edit: this could obviously have very easily been and probably is, conventional antitank mine, just the way the drone was watching it made me think that IEDs could be pretty potent.

  11. You don’t have to pass an IQ test to be a Russian tank driver.

  13. Perfect mine ambush. Knew where they were most likely going to go – right around the hulk of the previous armoured vehicle.
