Ukrainian Tanks Take On Inexperienced Russian Conscripts In The Kharkiv Region 

Looks like the only thing they haven’t seen is some sleep 😴

The old guy, my guess the commander, I really don't want to know what he saw. War is hell

Looks like they could do with a two day pass to recharge their batteries.

Thousand yard stare

That can also get you actually into trouble, when the enemy is not just fleeing quicker as before.

@@hartmutvonknallundzubumm9073 WRONG ! YOU FIRE AT THE ENEMY IMMEDIATELY UNLESS YOU HAVE A PRIOR SPECIFIC INSTRUCTION NOT TO DO SO.

@@thepilgrim6375 True. That's the conventional ROE on the battleground. I'm a Southern Filipino, and during our war in Marawi with the ISIS, its basically shoot on sight. Only exception are rebels holding a white flag while walking naked and civilians.

@@user-bm5ht8ze2t Love your username

@@user-bm5ht8ze2t That's so interesting! I've since left the philippines to escape so much death. so in Marawi the rebels had to be (1) naked and (2) holding a white flag in order to be not shot on sight?

It is actually potentially good for Ukraine, however they may need to grind through another 400k or so Russians; before there is sufficient discontent in Russia to finish this war.

@@MrYegr they’re going to have to start sending women and old men soon…. Russia only has 140,000,000 citizens. How many are beyond military age? How many are women? They’re running out of military aged men.

@@Glostahdude not true actually apparently one million men showed up when they where going to mobilize they sent many home do to not being able to fight imo it’s not about not being the right age it’s the will to fight

@@Hellllllo852 so why were they taking them out of prisons then?

Your brain washed by propaganda stop watching sky news

Maybe they have get small Stalin out from putin. Where we get our hitler to friend of him? Some point they turn infighting each other at russia, maybe even before Christmas or soon after? Let's see.

More like the second world War 2

I always interperated Russia during the second world war to be very high intensity in terms of manufacturing tanks and other weapons, as well as charging high numbers at the enemy. And yet all we see is old tech at the end of its shelf life?

@@aviationismylife6814 World War 1 on the Eastern Front was very bad also. And they lost which gave them Communism. 😨

Adolf did the same thing in April 1945. Look what happened to Adolf.

This is what the Russians don't get: Language and nationality/national identity is not the same. For example, in Austria they are speaking German, but they have an own identity as Austrians and don't want to be occupied by Germany.

Most people in Donbas want to be Russian or form their own state why can’t Ukraine understand this 💀

Well, they certainly don't want to live under a corrupt, oppressive, dictatorship anyway.

Great video from "peron" -- "How lies destroy armies" Highly recommend channel. Retired librarian Michigan / U.S.

While I have no problem with firing at retreating Russians, I'm not keen on firing without coordinating first. That's how friendly fire incidents happen, especially as both sides are using the same equipment.

What does E6 and E9 mean?

Nazis just blindly shoot at civilians most of the time, so they don't need any confirmation. Got videos from Russian artillerys only 5km away from their target and they got all the time of the world to destroy it before leaving. That was main battlefront and shows how shit the surveillance of the Nazi regime and their NATO masters is. If you are unable to detect artillery in the open only 5km away, you are pretty much blind.

@@solar0wind they are ranks for enlisted soldiers, if not mistaken, those below the rank of lieutenant but could be below the rank if sergeant.

That's why the Russians are so inept. The zeroes hand the conscripts a rifle at the front and run away before they get shot by their own troops.

They are outnumbered and outgunned. The fact that they are still succeeding is a testimony to their bravery.

@@coyote2239 The Ukrainian military leadership has made this exact point over and over, and it's especially true with air power. This is about weapons supplies, not the performance of the soldiers.

And get half the USA army budget in terms of support i'm quite sure [edit: people pointed out it was 2% I dont know where I got half from but its not half] [I am almost sure that's more then Russia's] So the fact they have not pushed Russia out completely yet say's enough about how their army actually is.

Death to Ukraine

Did you know that the expression "Slava Ukraine" it appeared in the second half of the 20s of the twentieth century in the "Legion of Ukrainian Nationalists". Later, did the OUN(B) (Bandera group of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists) like this greeting. This slogan was used by those who were allied with Nazi Germany during World War II. These were Bandera members, followers of Stepan Bandera, the leader of the OUN. As it is now - the modern famous Ukrainian song "Our Father Bandera".

yes because of US and NATO... dont think its all on ukraine... its nato avacs and precision munition from nato

@@yukuzoona6604 The Russians have plenty of weapons so why haven’t they won with that logic? The Ukrainians have the will to fight and the Russians largely do not, they’ve demonstrated far better Command and Control of their forces and strategic planning and deception, and lastly they simply have better field discipline and grasps of tactics. I’d also add the Ukrainians aren’t using NATO weapons to attack civilian targets while Russia uses advanced Iskander missiles to attack apartment buildings.

@@Rimasta1 Well said sir...and that is why even though the price is infinitely high for the defenders... the invaders will NEVER "win"...unless they go back home. Their country is one of the largest in the world, they should enjoy it, instead of bringing death to a smaller neighbour or anyone else!!

@@yukuzoona6604 No it is because these people are defending their land from a fascist horde. Even with obsolete weapons. And of course, wer are obliged to help these men to defend their country. The West is behind those brave people and always will be.

@@Rimasta1 Well, I think that's not what he meant. When the Russians claim they fight NATO they are partially right. Ukraine gets Nato training, real-time reconnaissance via platforms like AWACS, they have access to modern satellite communication and imaging tec, the supply chains for ammunition and spare parts are managed by foreign countries for Ukraine, and you can bet that Nato generals are also involved in the planning of the offensives. Not to mention all the money, weapons, and munitions Ukraine gets. Modern warfare is far more digitalized and interconnected than in the 80s and that's what Russia is now learning the hard way.

well in last months tanks are many times used as artillery pretty much, offering support from long distance while being safe against enemy attacks

Quite.

No tank can carry enough of a load to last all day. You heard him say they were firing 50 rounds a day. (I wonder how many are Russian lend-lease. Not only do the Russians treat their men as cannon-fodder, they supply the shells to make them so.)

Totally

@Stephanie Wilson Yes, many times ruZZian supplied tanks and munitions. In the video when loading the tank with munitions the guy said this is trophy munitions. In other words, munitions that were abandoned by the retreating ruZZians.

No. It's Ukrainian nazis

What is victory? Putin withdrawing from the Ukraine and wrecking it again in a few years? There is an interesting lecture from 2015 on youtube about the 2014 war, and the professor said, Putin only needs to keep wrecking the Ukraine, he doesn't need to invade it. My opinion is victory would be invading Russia and taking out Putin. Not likely because of M.A.D. A more realistic path would be a Russian withdrawal, and a compromise / solution to NATO expansion whilst conceding the Crimea and agreeing to open back up the canals that feed it water. Or fight so hard, that you instigate a coup that takes Putin out. From the start, Blair was hinting the latter would be the most realistic path to victory.

@@katedebt9150 as well you'd know that the alliance was broken immediately in June 1941 when Nazi Germany refused to support Ukrainian independence.

It's a difference of doctrine. Western armies don't have nearly as many tanks as the Russians so we spent a lot of time building small but effective anti-armour weaponry for use with infantry. Russia on the other hand spent a lot of ressources building anti-air weaponry since the west rules the sky. As such Ukrainian tank crews in theory are less vulnerable when driving around than Russian tank crews. Only in theory though since any weapon if used correctly is deadly and in 99 out of 100 fights it's the one who spots and engages the enemy first that wins.

It's not insane from an economics point of view. Its sadder, that humans have to fight over resources (the Eastern Ukraine is one of the most resource rich places on earth.) But, as my economics teacher used to say, 'resources are scarce, and mans greed is infinite.' - the real reason for all wars, even though they are often disguised to the people as being about more motivational things such as religion, good vs evil, freedom and democracy, or protection and survival (as in the Iraq war and the WOMD threat.) Putin's no different and using the same excuses for the same reasons our ancestors fought over access to a stream or fertile land.

Russia can never win this. Not with Ukraine being backed by 40 countries around the world including NATO. And Putin knows that just by the use of one single nuke then Russia gets vaporized.

@@austindarrenor No side can truly win it - only claim winning it. We may never know who won it. There is a seminar by a professor somewhere on RU-vid from 2015, that explains the troubles in the Ukraine and Crimea. He said, Putin doesn't need to invade the Ukraine. He just has to wreck it every few years to halt the West taking advantage of all the untapped resources it offers. People do not want to invest in unstable countries. However, the Russians leaving Ukraine will be seen as a victory for the Ukraine. My guess is, from reading all the news, not just western news, is that Russia will agree to leave in return for keeping the Crimea, a secret agreement for opening up canal routes to supply it with water, and some agreement not to join NATO. That is a win for Russia, but the Ukraine will claim a win in driving the Russians out.

@@austindarrenor To answer your Nuke theory. It's not that simple. My dissertation for my economics degree was on M.A.D and how the most stable time in our history was when the Soviets, in 1949, developed their first nuclear bomb. That now is beginning to not be the case with the development of so many Tactical nuclear weapons - of which Russia has more than NATO combined; potentially including more advanced ones. It's no longer the case that if one tactical nuclear weapon is fired on the battle ground that a government would press the doomsday button. Only someone very naive would think this. Trump realised this when he was in office, and widened the budget, but was it too late? Putin may well have struck at precisely the right time. Not that they would be used, but it's a psychological card up the sleeve. There would be an unacceptable number of deaths on the battlefield should NATO put boots on the ground - in theory, without doomsday weapons being used, as there would be no incentive to wipe out the human race even if you were losing.

@@roderickthered4981 The way it's been going for 9 mos now if Russia's military continues to get beaten down with massive war dead, loss of equipment and humiliated maybe Putin's inner circle will get exasperated and decide just to get rid of the guy once and for all. Putin's a relic of the old Soviet USSR. Probably 90% of Russians want to be integrated with Eu for its freedom and prosperity. Most of the population of Russia is to the west and geographically are part of Eu and that's where they belong and they know it.

Thanks for your service and insights.

Maybe the commanders see it as encouragement for their troops, and a deterent to the Russian troops. Maybe they actually need the equipment.

Poor M-85 ... intended to replace the M2 HB .. nope. I wonder though .. we never let the LT play with the M2 if at all possible as he would screw it up. Come to think of it .. a LT can screw up almost anything. I think they put out an electrical field to mess up the radios.

@@kathleenmccrory9883 Definitely seems that way. Makes sense.

Ukrainian T64s are decent. I'd love to get them Leo 2s quickly but training time might be an issue, I guess =(

It's the training, it's hard to go from eastern tech to western, which is why America hasn't sent any jets.

@@manda60 The T64s don't have thermals, they can't fight against more modern Russian tanks. In a tank battle, whoever sees the other first, wins. But they will receive 90 upgraded Czech T-72 tanks.

@@scratchy996 Russia had modern tanks?

I dedicate my comment to all the miserable commentators and Ukrainian prostitutes! Now Russia is at war not with fucking Ukraine, but with a large bloc of NATO and its allies who supply mercenaries, weapons, supplies and just move your brains for once and think why America has clung to this unfortunate Ukraine, which as a country is insignificant! Country of beggars and drug addicts!

They lived under russian bondage for three centuries. They know what that means. They know what they're fighting for. They remember the centuries of terror, the famine, the deportations, the russification. They'll never go back. Putin and Russia already lost Ukraine. Ukraine will be free of Russia. Forever.

KYIV, Jan 6 2022 (Reuters) - Ukraine's pro-Western opposition accused President Volodymyr Zelenskiy of autocratic behaviour on Thursday after a court froze the assets of Zelenskiy's predecessor Petro Poroshenko and two television channels that once belonged to him. The Associated Press • 13/05/2021 A top Ukrainian opposition politician with close links to Russian President Vladimir Putin was placed under house arrest Thursday, days after being charged with treason. Viktor Medvedchuk, who heads the Opposition Platform for Life party, the largest opposition force in parliament, denies the charges brought against him last week and says they're politically motivated. The Guardian Sun 20 Mar 2022 Eleven Ukrainian political parties have been suspended because of their links with Russia, according to the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy. The country’s national security and defence council took the decision to ban the parties from any political activity. Most of the parties affected were small, but one of them, the Opposition Platform for Life, has 44 seats in the 450-seat Ukrainian parliament.
