Not a technique, but a "deadly trap": the revenge of the Russian Federation in Vovchansk turned a disaster (video)
A week after the liberation and cleaning of the Volchansk aggregate plant in the Kharkiv region, the enemy sought revenge. "It ended in a catastrophe for the Russians," the publication said. Attacking 30 buildings of the enterprise, 17 tractors of MT-LB, three tanks and numerous infantry "crashed into the wall of Ukrainian fire power". Among other things, the 57th OMSBR applied against the invaders of UAV with grenades. "When the smoke was scattered, 16 mt lb and the tank were broken.
There were literally a bunch of dead and mutilated Russians around the corpses," the media described. Russian fighters entered the battle on 13-ton MT-LB, about 10 people per car. They probably hoped that mines would be more dangerous than drones. This assumption was not absolutely unfounded, because outdated technique with thin armor burning from explosions of mines from below. However, the damage from the drones was underestimated by the enemy.
"Ukrainians are constantly improving their unmanned ammunition, adding more sensitive lands and more powerful explosive shells. So the infantry that rolled to a chemical plant could be sufficiently protected from mines, but was catastrophically vulnerable to the drones," the edition explained. The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation gets from the warehouses more and more MT-LB of the 1970s to replace the lost newer and more heavier BMPs.
However, the infantry, which has to move on this technique, faces a difficult choice. The Russians can go inside, but then they run the risk of blowing up on a mini, or from above, becoming a light target for UAV. Defense forces are also forced to restore MT-LB to replace lost equipment. However, they are mostly in defense rather than attack, so defenders can leave the car and burn.
The invaders often do not have other options other than to roll on their "deadly traps" and try to cross the gray zone to get to Ukrainian positions. The media stressed that until the Armed Forces were launched, they could mostly wait for the invaders on the spot. Increasingly, the enemy will attack outdated armored tractors, which will become easy prey for drones.
We will remind, on September 30 about a large-scale mechanized storm in the Volchansk direction was reported by the fighter of the 24th OSHBS Stanislav Bunyatov. He conveyed that the defense forces destroyed 16 mt-lb and shot down one tank. Also on September 30, Kharkiv spokesman Vitaliy Sarantsev informed that after his release, the aggregate plant in Vovchansk became "target # 1" for the Russian Federation.
