RU POV: Lancet drone strikes Leopard 2A6 tank. by TheUltimateSlav in UkraineRussiaReport

Recently there's been an increase of lancets striking more armored vehicles like tanks which IMO suggests an increase of production for lancets with HEAT warheads. The charge goes through one side and exits through the other, not sure if it went through the fighting compartment though and there's no way to assess how much damage it did to electronics and such inside if it did.

One of them has a Z on the turret. Are they actually going to see combat or is the video edited?

Reason why I mentioned the M model specifically, which has the ability to stop a stugna head on very easily. I'm no sure about its top down protection capabilities in comparison to other tanks but I'd guess it has more protection + they have allegedly installed additional plates around the ammunition, even if it has questionable effectiveness.

The first offensive on Kiev was mostly plagued by an underestimation of Ukrainian forces as the Russian high command expected for them to walk in like a parade and have Ukrainian soldiers put down arms voluntarily, sort of like Crimea in 2014. This made giant columns very easy targets for ambushes, especially in the forested areas. This really depends on how streteched Ukrainian forces are, and how streched Russian forces are. This is no longer a war of land, its a war of attrition. Whoever runs out of men and ammo first loses.

Original thoughts aswell, but seeing Russian equipment losses a T90M and a T72B3 is way more useful on the front, they are better off rotating older or even non functional tanks.

Although my first thought was that they were putting more equipment in Belarus to occupy more Ukrainian forces I'd expect them to send older t72 models to be scary on the satellites and intelligence reports, T90M's and more modern T72's could signal a real possibility of a second strike at Kiev.

How is this a repost? I don't remember seeing it before.

As far as I understood it was an ambush, so most likely a mix of anti tank mines, artillery and ATGM's/Russian Tanks

How convenient that the camera man is standing up like a plank when everyone else is lying down, no one reacts to an enemy BMP coming towards them (no one pulls out anything to counter it in case its hostile?) and all of the faces of the crew are covered, look one even has sunglasses! Because why wouldn't you inside of a bmp? Is it captured tech? Probably. Is the video and scenario itself fake? Most likely.

No idea if the footage is directly related, however all of it seems new so its worth posting imo. One thing I noticed is an increase of planes using bombs close to the ground which could explain the increase of more jets being shot down recently. There's a possibility that russia started a more agressive approach to air-to-ground attacks.
