Battle of Kharkiv - Animated Analysis 

Great! Great! Great!

Thank you for your sacrifices. We will never forget this.

@@sikuter the counter offensive isnt going very well :(

@@sikuter You are american, you caused the war, shut up now.

​@@NoSaysJo Given the balance of power, it is naive to think that the result is now being measured by territories. It was initially obvious that a quick break was impossible. Now the main thing is the ratio of losses and how many reserves the opponents bring into battle. When attacking fortifications, Ukraine manages to achieve a loss ratio close to 1 to 1, without air support this is an excellent result. And most importantly, the Russians regularly use reserves, while Ukraine does not. Fighting with negligible results but significant losses will continue for a long time, but in this state of affairs the Russians will not have enough trained and mobile reserves left and the front will be broken. And only then will we see rapid movement, many prisoners and trophies. Our officials have warned you that we need long-range weapons, ballistic missiles and jets. It is absolutely logical that having only armored vehicles and artillery, we are forced to act as in WW2. Sorry, war has its own rules, we cannot make a miracle and show a beautiful show to Western viewers. We are forced to use what we have. The fact that we survived the first months without any significant help is a miracle in itself. We will win, it depends on you only at what cost. And the problems will not end there, it will be necessary to make decisions about what to do with Russia and how to restore Ukraine. Your countries will spend much more money on this than they are spending on the war now. Investing in our army now will save you more resources later. Believe me, you don't want to Ukraine turn into Iraq. A million veterans must be integrated into civilian life. All these people will be able to go to any NATO country without any problems. You will be able to meet them personally. Especially if they can't find work in Ukraine. If they will disappointed and offended by the result of the war, it will be a disaster for all of us. Our warriors must get the victory they deserve.

​@@NoSaysJo If you look Oryx (losses are almost 1 to 1, and in artillery, Ukraine's losses are many times less despite the fact that ukrainians are attacking) and, in general, everything is not that bad. I am Russian, but I am against the war and it seems to me that only the "cold" part of the counteroffensive is going on now. Destruction of artillery , large ammo depots . Even Russian military correspondents (who are not afraid of criticism from Z-people) confirm that this is the tactics of UA armed forces "before the storm": clear minefields to the first line of defense, find weak points and destroy the logistics of the Russian army, depriving them of ammunition and equipment, capturing highground and THEN strike. There was something similar with Kherson. Ukrainians also suffered heavy losses at first, and then they slightly changed tactics and began to take out logistics

Certainly, more planes were shot down, but I honestly had trouble finding more footage to prove that. Don't want to share something that is not 100% verified. The lack of footage is explained by the fact that many planes crashed in the fields, so even if photos exist, it's almost impossible to geolocate them and therefore show them in animation.

Not that I'm defending Russia but your thinking is strategically unsound. In war, a good commander prepares for what could happen, not what they think will happen; Japanese commanders in WW2 suffered from wishful thinking and this was one of the reasons they lost.

@@danielr5343 I am not saying that bringing the riot gear was a bad idea. I am just saying that it proves they were planning to occupy the cities in spite of claims the russian thrust south was a feint and that it flies in the face of their propaganda. Though shoving their special police unit into the teeth of the ukranian army was very much strategically unsound.

Lies

@@OlegVulkanov What exactly lies: is it your impotent dong or IQ-level?

Расскажи эту брехню всушным генералам и офицерскому составу, которые сдохли от ударов по располагам, которые слили именно пророссийски настроенные жители Сум, Николаева, Харьковщины, Запорожья, Донбасса, Одессы и других регионов. Их же в твоём хохлятском манямирке не существовало. Ну значит и мёртвых ком состава всу не существует) у вас же втрат нема - контрнахрюк как там?

I guess most people want to wait till the war ends befor they start analys it

Exactly what i was thinking

The Guy is from UA or Ukrainian. I dont think he wants to discuss lost Ukrainian battles, only victories.

Ya...the Germans won the first 3 battles kharkov....lost the 4th one and now the commies lost the most recent battle against the ukrainians. A 1-4 record in the battles of kharkov is pretty bad 🤣

to add, it takes around 10 minutes drive from that school to the city centre( excluding traffic) and 15-20minutes ride to circular highway

Thank you for the valuable insight and your service!

Words can never express the respect I have for the people of Ukraine defending their country.

@@TheWarArchive thank you for your work

They are not full armies, but rather a convenient way of representing the units involved. It's easier to say 1st Guards Tank Army instead of showing a naming 2nd Guards Motor Rifle Division, 4th Guards Tank Division, 47th Guards Tank Division, and 27th Guards Motor Rifle Brigade. By the way, Russians also use a crazy mix of Brigades and Divisions which makes it even more confusing because a Division might have a similar size to a Brigade which breaks all the rules. So, names of formations do not really mean a lot.

Russians only used FSB Security forces in the initial invasion. As a result they kept the names of their armies even though majority of the units in those armies didn’t participate in the invasion.

The US and I think most of NATO uses relatively standardized formations sizes, but Russian formation sizes, where they are standardized and just different from western ones, and oftentimes are focused on WWII era heritage with keeping the names of previously much larger formations alive. From what I can tell, squads, platoons, companies, battalions, brigades, and to a degree divisions are approximately the same size as western ones, but corps, armies, and army groups vary massively from western ones, and even within Russia. It's also important to note that as the war goes on, there are more instances of understrength units that are smaller than you might expect by the name.

Deus abençoe você e sua família por sua consciência limpa 😊

Idk if other Ukrainians would agree but I think we should take pro Ukrainian russian people in after the war, for population and workforce reasons. It would be a win win for us both. Thank you for your support

@@olegbobrovskiy3244 that's would be great, I think Ukranians will eventually think like you do and we will understand eachother like we did once...

@@stellarktg5149 You have to take matters in your country in your own hands first. They cant lock you all up.

We're very sorry for you

Thanks for mentioning that! I did not want to put too much in one video, so I will probably make a separate one about Trostyanets to make sure all details are covered. Don't know how soon, but it is on my list.

There is no glory when you turn against your brother.

@@arnoldvezbon6131 who pootin and his BOTS? you're right!! They against 🇺🇦 GLORY to ukraine and the heroes of Ukraine!! 🇺🇦❤🇯🇲!! The world stands strong with UKRAINE!!

@@DUBSTEP_KUSH305 if you are so convinced when are you going to get some of that glory? They could use the help.

@@arnoldvezbon6131 thats not ur deal arnold

How the f you even understand his incomprehensive mumbling??

Yes, exactly.

In general, yes, but there are a lot of complications to that. First of all, they are usually portrayed as an anti-democratic, far-right paramilitary group. This is mostly false, but such a representation is usually pushed by pro-Russian people who use it as an excuse for war. Freikorps is indeed a right-wing paramilitary group, but I would not call it entirely far-right. As well, they obviously are not against democracy and freedom, actually quite the opposite. They are ready to die for these values, as we can see in this video. The symbols that they are using at some point were utilized by Nazis, but I do not think that's a big deal. After all, these symbols are initially based on gothic runes, Nazis did not invent them. The use of these symbols is a way to connect to the origins of Western civilization, which Freikorps admire. Even if you look up their official website, you will not see any far-right propaganda.

not enough

Thanks! RU-vid indeed reminds me of a Matrix movie with all those strict algorithms doing weird things. Of course, due to RU-vid rules, I am careful with what footage to include and what to leave out. I am currently considering Patreon or something like that to be able to provide all the footage and be more independent from RU-vid monetization. But for now, enjoy my videos here!

I guess we can get to the history business with full attention after the war is over.

Yeah, the first video on the channel.

When are you going to the front they could use all the help they can get now a days...
