    How Hot is Ukraine Gonna Get?

    in Combat Mission Black Sea

    Posted

    Im really interested to learn which european country will be replacing its tanks with Merkava, to sent its own tanks to Ukraine.

    Hundreds of old Merkava tanks on the way to Europe: all the details about the historic deal

    40 years after they entered service in the IDF, hundreds of Merkava tanks of the 2nd and 3rd marks are expected to be sold to two foreign countries, including for the first time to a European country. The tanks went out of use in recent years, remaining in warehouses - but after the start of the war in Ukraine and the renewed demand for armored war vehicles, they were tested and found to be suitable enough to sell

    How about the team on the left lane lost all mine ploughs and tried to join the team doing the right lane breach?

     

     

    PS. Left and right described from the perspective of the direction of movement, i.e. as if standing on the top of the picture facing down.

    That's the pic I still doubt is legit, which means I think it is fake and the later published vid isn't able to convince me. We have 2 disabled ARVs in front of the left lane and 1 disabled ARV in front of the right lane. If the pic is legit it would mean that minefield never got breached at al at this spot and the Btl. CO decided to breach the minefield at another place. If so, with which equipment did he do that after losing 3 ARVs?

    As you see, either something doesn't fit or we (or only me) are still missing important information to reconstruct what happened there.

    I think we are way too far away to make judgments on this battle.

    Sometimes in war, battalions just get waked even when no nobody makes a mistake.

    Yep, we don't even know if it was the deliberate decision of the Btl.CO or if he was ordered to change direction. To many unknowns to make a judgement.

    However the unlucky result is, that Ivan now can take a closer look at the 2A6 and will use it for his propaganda.

    More info on the battle and how the footage ties into it. Russians managed to milk a lot of information war material out of this <battalion sized action.

    Thanks that helps with understanding. However, what I totally don't get is, why on earth the Btl. CO decided 2 times to have his Btl. move transverse in front of enemy lines. Big NO NO and I guess he, if at present still in charge, would have had a small "discussion" with Brig. CO about that. Well maybe we learn over time why this Btl. acted as it did.
