Donbass Fighters Addressed European, US Taxpayers, Showing Trophy Equipment In Lisichansk

The Russian military organised an exhibition of military equipment left by the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Severodonetsk-Lisichansk metropolitan area. According to the Russian Defence Minister, Ukrainian forces lost 196 Ukrainian tanks and armored vehicles, 12 aircraft and one helicopter in the battles. The AFU abandoned 39 units of tanks, 11 guns and mortars, 48 anti-tank missile systems during the retreat from the city.

The exhibits include Ukrainian weapons as well as foreign equipment supplied by the Kiev’s Western allies.

“Well, here is an exhibition of the achievements of the Ukrainian Defense Industry, which was kindly provided to the Russian troops and the Luhansk People’s Militia in the city of Lisichansk. Now there is such an exposition here, you can see which samples of weapons were taken as trophies during the operation to liberate the Severodonetsk and Lisichansk agglomeration.

You see there is a self-propelled artillery system “Carnation”, there are tanks T-62s, BMP-2s, several units at once.

In fact, there are dozens of pieces of equipment here, and of course this area cannot accommodate the entire line of weapons that were abandoned by Ukrainian troops during the retreat.

The fact is that almost all the ways to retreat in the direction of Seversk were cut off, i.e. there were only field roads along which Ukrainians could leave, but without equipment. There were cases when they tried to break through in columns, the columns were destroyed by the allied artillery of Lugansk troops, Russian troops. They had no chance to escape in large columns, so they were thrown here. The equipment is all in working order.

Tactical signs “Z” have already been applied to many samples of equipment, they are fighting as well as samples of small arms are fighting.

Well, for example, the British armored car “Saxon AT-105A”. Here “Varta” is also an armored car, already of Ukrainian production. The famous “Cossack” is also a vehicle for transporting personnel for delivery to the front. This is a “Cougar”, a regular “Grad”. “MT-LB” is also used to remove the wounded from the battlefield. These are vehicles for pontoon crossings over water barriers, across rivers. Here are a little “tired” – “BRDM” and the anti-aircraft missile system “Osa”.

This is the line of equipment that is presented at this impromptu exhibition. Of course there is actually much more equipment, several dozen units.”

At the rate he is going with this, Biden will completely drain our reserves of irreplaceable ammunition and further deplete the national treasury before this is over, and that is just if we are lucky. It only gets worse from here. I’m starting to see less yellow and blue yard decorations on display by the self righteous as the war drags on..

  mike’s comments–right on point.
  
  the stuff “Joe Biden” sent to UKR–a lot was just sitting on shelves or in warehouses with circuitry and batteries drained down, corroded, or inoperable in the UKR field. clearing out of “old barely-maintained stuff.”
  
  now–the MIC will have to build “new stuff” for the continental defense of America and there are four big monsters they face:
  
  1) lack of computer chips/programming boars/circuits for weaponry, 2) personnel–yeah! real live men and women who originally put these weapons together and had pride of workplace, intimate knowledge, tricks, tips, and hacks to get ‘er done. they been either retired, fired, or their jobs outsourced to India or China. Hey–maybe the MIC can buy ‘puter chips and staff from the CCP? Whaddaya say, “Joe Biden?” You’ll get your 10% rake off for that, 3) production lines, machinery, and facilities–either non-existent or mothballed to make any “new” 3rd and 4th gen weapons we gave away, and 4) testing and research facilities for new weapons. you don’t just cobble together new weapons and toss them to the Quartermaster and say: “here–see if these work.”
  
  one of the very few things enumerated in our laws that FED GOV is required to do: protect the nation–gradually and intentionally being drained down to nothing.
  
  as James Wesley, Rawles just commented on a podcast: get used to “YOYO.”
  
  “Your on your own,” Bro. Get prepared now and harden your hearts for the “coming attractions.”
  
  Tough sledding ahead, BUT–we’re too many for the “Visiting Team” and America is too damn big to tyrannize all of it.
  
  WE
  WILL
  PREVAIL
