I try, I mentioned them earlier in relation to the vehicles the MOD flog off with 250 miles on the clock and 7 k price when they cost just shy of 90 k new. 
If the military were to drive similar military vehicles in the U.K. the police would arrest you for various offences
btw see the other thread, the Kerch bridge is repaired.

Perhaps related to the shortage being reported on the front lines - Russia experiencing major supply problems - and a few aircraft won’t close the gap.

Norway is sending a new military aid package to Ukraine. It contains:

- 55,000 units of winter clothing;
- 55,000 bandages and individual packages;
- 30,000 field rations.

Russia and it’s missing 1.5 million uniforms… 1.5 million!

- 1M109A3GN 155mm SPG;
What does that jumble of numbers and letters before 155mm mean? One M109A3GN or a Million 109A3GN - whatever that is ...???? Or...???
Are we expected to know what SPG is...?
Please, try not to be too clever with obscure mlitary acronyms, we aren't all that- er - 'knowlegeable"...
It's an American Self-Propelled 155mm Howitzer. It's REALLY NOT that difficult!

Trench warfare 2022 - footage circulating online of apparently Russian Thermal Imaging quadcopters operating with impunity over the trenches, dropping grenades on the poor soldiers huddled below. Probably Ukranians on the receiving end.
As if it wasnt miserable enough in those conditions. Spare a thought.

Multiple groups, some moving, some not, so not sure if we're talking about the same thing. Its a Russian propo post, and the Thermal Imaging quadcopter looks high tech.
As much as I hope it wasnt the Ukranians getting hit, I think it's likely.
As a general point, we should face realities rather than focussing entirely on the other side's defeats.

The endless cold.
The endless glutinous mud.
The endless Russian shells.
The endless death.
The endless Russian attacks.
These pics give a visual sense of what Ukrainian troops defending the town of Bakhmut are enduring.

That’s not mud, this Is mud… note they say NATO gear does not cope was well with it, something NATO will have to look at. It looks like the gun barrel failed too.

To contrast the PBI in the trenches and mud to the sterility and high tech in the HQ - was ever so..
Footage of a Ukrainian command center near Bakhmut, showing a pretty good look at the information-sharing capabilities on the front, including drone footage livestreamed over Google Meet.

There have been reports of guns wearing out their barrels etc due to the amount of ammunition that is being put through them, I seem to remember reading the US is to set up a repair base in Poland for some of their equipment. Plus they will need parts to repair those weapons damaged.
With all of this mud, out of interest do they have track extensions for the type of stuff in use?
