Collimatrix Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 The Ukrainian Civil War, prior to the quasi-ceasefire agreement was a for serious war. There were big combined arms maneuvers; tanks supported by infantry and artillery, the works. Everything but manned air power and WMDs. One observer had a story about two Ukrainian mechanized brigades being wiped out in a few minutes by an MRLS barrage. The combat escalated from people waving flags and fat guys riding in pickups with knives to actual war in a hurry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donward Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 Not that any real coverage of the fighting is shown over here. I guess at this rate, the only question is who could lose battles and equipment faster, the Ukrainians or Saudis? Collimatrix 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoooSeR Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 Note that rebels losses structure shows that "tanks / others AFVs" casualties ratio is much higher, showing that they used IFVs and APCs in direct combat with units, well-equipped with AT weapons, much less frequently than UAV/VSU.

Brick Fight Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 So after the Bellingcat report on MH17, Russian government officials got mad on a few occasions and made attempts to call them out, eventually contacting Bellingcat directly. When asked for evidence of fakery, the Russian MFA came out with this (direct links to pdf downloads): Russian: https://www.bellingcat.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/%D0%9E%D1%82%D0%B2%D0%B5%D1%82-%D0%91%D0%B5%D0%BB%D0%BB%D0%B8%D0%BD%D0%B3%D0%BA%D1%8D%D1%82-21042016.doc English: https://www.bellingcat.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/MFA_response_1_en.pdf It turns out they may have plagiarized some blog posts. Bellingcat's proof: https://www.bellingcat.com/news/uk-and-europe/2016/04/22/mfa-plagiarism/ And a rebuttal against the MFA letter: https://www.bellingcat.com/resources/articles/2016/04/22/the-russian-ministry-of-foreign-affairs-presents-its-evidence-of-mh17-fakery/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
