Russian special military operation in Ukraine #44

Could a directional jamming system like Murmansk BN, or many Krasukha-4 stationed along the Belarus border provide a blanket against NATO AWACS which are searching for VKS flight paths to pass on to Ukrainian air defense?

What about jamming systems placed in Kaliningrad and Transnistria?

This could solve the problem of tracking of VKS

Couple it with TU214R tracking the emissions of systems on the ground, and a good picture will appear of where Ukrainian AD is stationed and minimize the risk to friendly planes

This is with regard to the ambush of the Su34 , Su35, Mi8 jammer , and Mi8 rescue over Bryansk a month ago

Putin: losses of the Russian Federation in repelling the counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are 10 times less than Ukrainian

The President noted that the Russian Federation lost 54 tanks while repulsing the Ukrainian counteroffensive, some of them are subject to restoration.

The proportion between the dead and the wounded in the structure of losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine during the counteroffensive is 50/50, the Russian leader added.

Surprising that Russia had so many tank losses. That is almost 2x that of Ukraine. I guess they used more armor then men to defend.

Its been several videos with 30 mm shells stopping russian tanks. The ERA dont cover the whole tank, specially not in the rear.

The Ukrainen tank and ifv looses is mostly to mines and artillery by the looks of it. They Russian dont dare attacking with thier own it seems.

Unless you are a complete fool, you will always seek to kill tanks at the maximum range before they can use effective direct fire on you. Engaging tanks with tanks is the last resort really. 1. Artillery, 2 mines, 3. ATGM squads 4 Tanks .

Are you quoting Putin?

If so, did he actually mean TANKS, or "tanks" - aka APCs, IFVs, lord knows what else, etc.

Putin said that the losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are 10 times higher than the Russian ones

MOSCOW, 13 June. /TASS/. Losses among the Russian military are 10 times less than the Ukrainian ones conducting a counteroffensive, Russian President Vladimir Putin said.

At a meeting with war correspondents, the head of state stated that the Armed Forces of Ukraine (APU) had "an unfavorable loss structure." “Of all the losses, and they are approaching an assessment that can be called catastrophic in terms of personnel, their structure of these losses is unfavorable for them, because the losses can be sanitary, or they can be irretrievable. Usually irretrievable losses are 25 percent, maximum 30. there are almost 50 to 50 of them," Putin explained.

According to him, "it is clear that the defending side suffers fewer losses." "But still, this ratio is 1 to 10, as they say, in our favor - we have 10 times less losses than in the Armed Forces of Ukraine," the president stressed.

From another media source at the media conference...

"Russia suffers 10 times less losses than Ukraine," the head of state said.

He stressed that the Armed Forces of Ukraine during the counteroffensive, which has been going on since June 4, have an "unfavorable situation" with losses and "they are approaching catastrophic." In particular, Putin pointed out that in terms of personnel, the Ukrainian troops have 50-50 irretrievable losses, unlike Russia.

At the same time, the President noted that the loss of personnel of the Russian Armed Forces should be announced by the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation. He also said that during the counteroffensive, Russian forces lost 54 tanks, some of which are subject to restoration. Losses of the Ukrainian Armed Forces during the same period amounted to more than 160 tanks and 25-30% of equipment supplied by the West.

See previous post from myself. A point that needs saying here is that the Russians are multiple times able to recover and field repair their damaged or broken equipment on the battle field let alone all their repair factories operating inside Russia. Would actually be interesting to see those stats someday, meanwhile Ukraine has to send whatever they can recover to Slovakia or Poland for repairs.

The losses need to be characterized, otherwise the comparison in numbers is meaningless. How many tank crews do the Ukr forces lose compared
to Russian tank crews.

The goals of the special operation are changing in accordance with the current situation, but in general they remain the same, Putin said at a meeting with military commanders

@DDgeopolitics

I think this is the beginning of a new policy , where the doves have been displaced by the CATO group

Ukraine est delenda - Ukraine must be destroyed

Keep in mind that this article was written by presstitutes. Most likely "Tanks" doesn´t mean MBTs but armored vehicles of all kinds, down to Tigr-M.

Putin needs to talk about overall Russian losses. Whatever he says about Ukrainian once is propaganda per default, the same is valid for Ukrainian side. Contrary what Russia/Putin are claiming Ukraine did take 90 square km and 7 small settlements. However no real breakthrough was done yet, it still shaping and probing phase. Russia claims already that stopped offensive twice... which is of course nonsense. They did not mention general Sergei Goryachev that is supposed to be killed. List of russian generals that are killed but not confirmed is now 11. 4 are officially killed on top of that. Ukraine promised it will be not kind to aggressor and is delivering. For offensive it is still unclear would it fail or succeed, it will take few more weeks for that.

Putin already said 400 Ukrainian vehicles lost

"The enemy was not successful in any of the directions. They have heavy losses," Putin said during a meeting with military correspondents.
The president mentioned that the Ukrainian military is currently attacking at the Shakhtyorsk and Vremevka directions “but fail to reach the front line.” In total, Ukraine is attacking from four directions, Putin added.

"This is a large-scale counteroffensive using, as I said quite recently publicly, reserves prepared for these purposes. It has been going on since [June] 4, and continues to this day, right now," Putin said.

The president also noted that the Ukrainian forces "lost more than 160 tanks [during their counteroffensive], while we lost 54. Some of them can be recovered and repaired."

"According to my calculations, this is about 25% or maybe 30% of the volume of the equipment that was delivered from abroad, that is about it. It seems to me that if they objectively calculate them, they will agree with this number, but as far as I have seen from open sources, Western sources, that is almost what they say, I think. So the offensive is underway, and the results today are what I just said," Putin told military correspondents
Ukraine lost 160 tanks and 360 armored vehicles during the counteroffensive, and this is only what Moscow sees, the president added.

Putin: Ukraine should not exist at the expense of the Russian Federation and in the historical Russian territories
The Russian leader stressed that the existence of Ukraine must be treated with respect, adding that this is no reason to disrespect Russia

MOSCOW, 13 June. /TASS/. Ukraine should not exist at the expense of Russia and in the historical Russian territories, if normal relations are not built, Russian President Vladimir Putin said at a meeting with military commanders.

"As for Ukraine, whatever it is, it exists, and we must treat it with respect, but this does not mean that this is a reason to treat us without respect. That's what we are talking about. If some part of the people, living in these territories, believe that they want to live in a separate independent state, then we must treat this with respect. But why should they live at our expense in our historical territories? If they want to live in our historical territories, then you need to influence on their political leadership in such a way as to build normal relations with Russia, so that no one from these territories threatens us. This is the problem," he said.

At the same time, Putin cited his disputes with the head of Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko, as an example. "How many times we argued with Belarus, we argued with Lukashenko, there were many questions. It is clear, because the president of the country, in this case Belarus, protects his interests, as he sees fit - consistently and harshly. We had disputes, but did it even occur to anyone to start a conflict with Belarus? It never even occurred to anyone to start such conflicts with Ukraine if we had normal human relations. But they made "anti-Russia" as the basis of their own existence and began to strengthen it. This is a problem," the president said.
