The number of vehicles, aircraft, naval vessels, and weapons systems lost by Russian forces since the start of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine has surpassed 15,000, the open-source investigative project Oryx announced on March 24. The figure includes 2,856 tanks, 135 helicopters, 106 aircraft, 20 naval ships, and
That’s an unbelievable amount of materiel lost for so little gain. Visually confirmed destroyed Russian tanks now outnumber the tank fleets of all but six other countries
Am impressive showing by Ukraine. Russia has had to dig DEEP into reserves and even field T fucking 55s. You know, the things that squared off against bradleys and Abrams in 1991 and got their shit ROLLED? Not too mention the spectacular damage to Russia’s air capabilities in the past month. A whole bunch of jets destroyed, 2 A-50s shot down, another one (or more maybe) droned on the ground, THEN a facility for fixing the damaged A-50(s) gets blowed up. Just… Goddamn. The quantity is great but the quality of their strikes are top notch as well. They’re kicking Russia in the balls over and over.
On top of all that: Russia lost a whole naval fleet. To a country with basically no naval capabilities.
20 freaking ships. Just gone without them actually taking part in the fight.
As Oryx only publishes visually confirmed data taken from open sources, the real numbers of Russian losses are likely significantly higher.
the sub they lost was in for repairs and was only a few years old
I still smile every time I see the sub crossed out on a black sea fleet bingo card.
there should also be a General/Admiral bingo card, or a trophy case… including the ones who have fallen down stairs and out of windows, of course…
Absolutely valid kills.
