The Russian armed forces are steadily advancing during the NWO. Ukrainian units must withdraw. In addition, a huge amount of different equipment – both Western and left over
The militants are forced to abandon various vehicles, both military and civilian, in the city limits of Artemovsk and its suburbs. Judging by the video published by the RVvoenkory Telegram channel, Bandera left only on one road the Kia Sportage crossover of the first generation, an old Zhiguli, as well as two SUVs reminiscent of the Mitsubishi Pajero and UAZ Patriot.
This is understandable. The spring thaw has turned the tracks into muddy tracks. Even frame all-wheel drive “rogues” with a decent ground clearance will not pass there. So they get stuck and become easy prey for Russian artillery.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine often use pickup trucks modified for military needs. Various photos show Mitsubishi L200 and Ford F−150. The Americans themselves call the latter ‘lapper’. Such semi-trucks get stuck in the mud even faster. After all, these are the same SUVs, only heavy ones, because, as a rule, there is a heavy machine gun or something similar in the back.
Fairly modern western armored vehicles also fail. So, a few months ago, Finland handed over a batch of Sisu XA-180 armored personnel carriers to the Ukronazis. Now we know about the destruction of several of these “boxes”, and one even became a trophy. Experts say that the XA-180 has weak protection and firepower. So the number of Sisu destroyed will only grow. But the “Finn” has all six wheels powered and the first four can turn. That is, it should be quite reasonable.
There are many American MaxxPro and HMMWV (Hummer) in the Ukrainian forces, as well as British Husky TSV. They were united by one thing: limited suitability for current conditions. At the beginning of the campaign, there were complaints about these products of the Western army, and now their shortcomings have been fully revealed in all their glory.
It is not easier in the Ukrainian Black Earth and the Turkish Kirpi. In the video published today by Rossiyskaya Gazeta, no fewer than four tractors can be seen trying to pull an armored car out of the mud. And they don’t do that very well. The fact is that a car with good mine protection is designed for patrolling, but on good roads. Off-road, all-wheel drive, as we see, is waiting for trouble.
Former Soviet equipment, such as the BMP-2, performs much better. For example, the soldiers of the 93rd brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine quickly escape through the low-rise buildings of the suburbs of Artemovsk: it is easier to hide from drones and artillery.
