The scale of the war in Ukraine is staggering. For context, while the British Army is just 73,000 strong. According to US officials, Ukraine’s armed forces have already suffered more than 70,000 dead and 120,000 injured.
So, what problems do Ukrainian medics face on the frontline? How are they tackling them? And what lessons should Western medics learn from the war in Ukraine?
To find out, we spoke to two volunteer medics from the Ukrainian Hospitallers Medical Battalion, Brandon Mitchell and Iryna Knyzhnyk. They shared their experiences on the frontlines of the War in Ukraine.

In Vietnam a wounded US soldier on average would be in a hospital faster than a civilian in the US would be because of air evacuation. Getting control of the airspace would go a long way to helping soldiers to survive in Ukraine. No only in that wounded could be airlifted out but in suppressing artillery.

Artillery has always been the biggest killer on the battlefield since the First World War; the proliferation and use of drones as seen in Ukraine has made artillery even deadlier.
@UzumakiNaruto_
@UzumakiNaruto_ 2 месяца назад
I'd say that although drones have made artillery more deadly that drones themselves are now the number one killer in Ukraine. You can hide from artillery strikes and survive even intense barrages however with suicide drones and explosive dropping drones, they have become mini precision guided weapons that troops cannot escape from. Cheap and plentiful there are so many targets on the battlefield these days that you can now strike with drones that you probably wouldn't want to waste an artillery shell on even if you could hit it with one shot. Right now there's no scarier weapon on the battlefield than an armed drone piloted by a good operator.

@@UzumakiNaruto_ Quad or octo 7.62 mm with a directed and scattered triagonaliating Microphones with filters that sort of act like short range radar (without the need for a radar-signal). I would say one can put up a protective zone for 500 meter radius around any encampment for a cost of less than $1k. Then sure they may start mounting RPG-7 onto the drones and cause the need for the radius to extend to 1km, but still that causes them to invest more in the drones than no defense at all around the ukraine encampments. And seriously, force them to keep 500-1000 meter distance with the surveillance drones forces the enemy to invest in more expensive optics and technology. Then you can replace the 7.62 mm bullet with the more expensive 12.56mm one.

They have total mobilization, we should not forget that Ukranian SSR is the second largest country by numbers and in industry after RSFSR aka Russia in whole post-USSR, Russia brought about 30% of its soldiers into this country, plus a lot of countries help Ukraine with money/equipment, satellite intelligence, they stay in the role of defenders, which is easier in terms of counter-attacks and the construction of defensive lines. There is nothing surprising in this, the usual tactics, strategy and logistics. They are not a sry for this "banana republic" or a country from the Middle East; it is at least incorrect to underestimate them. Especially in their position, above described The most scary thing for modern war is that Ukraine is essentially a huge field with some forests in east. It is difficult to maneuver unnoticed there, everything is open and visible. Therefore, it is not surprising for both sides that the artillery and drones has taken a dominant position and now their war is essentially a game of whack-a-mole, WWI v2.0

In the first year artillery played a lesser role, and the tactics used by Russians that were similar to WWII tactics caused serious losses in the attacking Russian forces,while Ukrainians on defense had many privileges.

Average age of ukranian soldier on front line is 43…think about that. Meanwhile russia are recruiting between 30-50k every month and they are volunteering. Russia are about to unleash their latest fap 3000 bomb. Their fap 250..500…and 1500 are causing havoc right now. Then there are the hypersonic missiles that cant be shot down. Kiev has been under massive missile attack past 4 days…why…because they have no defence lefft. Its over. That twat zelensky should surrender now…but noooo…he wants to lower conscription age to 18…so limited training then sent as target practice for battle hardened russian soldiers. Does that make any sense to you at all. That is the usa making that call btw…they dont care about ukrainians…they just want to hold the line until after the election. Horrible bastards.

Russian artillery is extremely inaccurate so they use it to saturate an area, the vast majority of shells and rockets don't hit anything of value but due to the sheer amount fired they still inflict heavy damage and account for the majority of Ukrainian casualties. On the other hand, Russia suffers insane number of casualties in frontal assaults on Ukrainian positions, to Ukrainian FPV drones and drone-dropped grenades. In addition to that, Ukraine has inflict heavy casualties on Russia using HIMARS for precision strikes, in contrast to how Russia uses its own artillery. In the Battle of Avdiivka alone in 4 months Russia lost twice as many combat vehicles as Ukraine did on the entire front over 9 months (which includes the failed counteroffensive).

The actual number is somewhere between 400k to 800k potential Ukrainian casualties. According to Yuriy Lutsenko "former Ukrainian prosecutor general" Ukraine is losing close to 30k soldiers a month with upwards of 500,000 dead. Zelensky himself said Ukraine is suffering 500 casualties a day. Also the Russians aren't using 60k shells per day, that's just a theoretical number of shells all their artillery pieces can fire in a day that an analyst came up with and journalists have mistakenly repeated. The real number is somewhere between 5-10k, Ukraine is using 2-3k on average. With a high point of 20k shells used by the Russians during the battle of Bakhmut and 6-8k for Ukraine during it's summer counter offensive.

Ukrainians have definitely lost alot of men, but the Russians have lost even much more. If the Ukrainians and Russians both had the same population size, Russia would've ended this war a long time ago with all their losses. Right now they're staying in the fight solely because of the size of their army and their ability to draw from a much larger pool of men to throw their lives away in Ukraine. Its crazy to see countless videos of Russian losses everyday and yet they still keep attacking without a care in the world with how many men and how much equipment they lose as long as they achieve their objectives.

A huge impact to this would be the kind of ballistic helmets they are wearing. Modern helmets are not tested compared to even ancient helmets. They adapt based on what is in style, what looks cool. The current FAST helmet rated SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER than a French WW1 helmet made of leather. Let that sink in. They aren't ballistic rated to stop rifle rounds. And they kill you if you get hit with artillery. But they're basically all we have right now. That or Chinese knock offs which get even more people killed.

Artillery has always been the big killer in warfare. It also causes a high percentage of the badly wounded because of the massive blast radius and shrapnel. Artillery is semi direct. it is aimed at an area, normally. Not a particular person. That means it is used against massed enemy formations like platoon or battalion sized units. Some of the shells being lobbed at these men contain 100-200 lbs of modern high explosive. By contrast a hand grenade, which is a very deadly weapon contains at most half a pound of TNT PETN or RDX. I don't know the data exactly but I wouldn't want to be within 50 yards of a 203mm shell when it lands. That's a huge damage radius. Then you've got mortars, grenades, bombs, rockets, missiles. Men carry rifles into battle but they kill each other with the big guns.

Drones are the new deadliest weapon on the battlefield now. I don't think there's a more frightening sight than seeing a drone coming towards you and knowing that its going to be hard if not near impossible to dodge one or more attack drones if the enemy drone operator really wants to kill you. If there's one weapons system that I could completely remove from my enemy's arsenal it would be drones of all types.

Quick maths time According to this, 60,000 artillery rounds per day have been fired by Russia so after two years thats over 42,000,000 rounds. And are responsible for over 70% of Ukrainian casualties. Meanwhile Ukraine has lucky to be 5,000,000. So with 70% casualties caused by atry, how exactly would Russia have more casualties?
@UzumakiNaruto_
@UzumakiNaruto_ Месяц назад
Because Russia hasn't been firing 60k shells consistently for the past 2+ years? That was only for a brief period of time that they were firing so many until they too were suffering a shell shortage to a degree which is why they're buying shells from North Korea. Also that 70% casualty rate from artillery doesn't apply to this war because drones have been causing a large proportion of casualties these days and might've even overtaken artillery as being the biggest cause of casualties.

Truth is, Ukraine casualties are too high for the world to cope with so they aren't being told the true numbers. If you doubt this, why is France talking about sending troops to western Ukraine if not to free up those Ukrainian troops to man the eastern line?

@@tommyt4259 *nope, the whole war Russia has had roughly a 10/1 arty advantage while simultaneously out producing NATO in arty rounds.* Russia is outproducing NATO countries in arty rounds because Russia relies much more on arty than NATO does. When you have vastly superior airforces and have tons more precision guided missiles you tend to rely less on artillery to support your troops. Also you don't take into account that NATO nations are ramping up their arty shell production and have a much greater capacity to produce shells as well as every other type of modern weapon compared to Russia if they chose to put more funding towards it which they're currently doing now. *Also they are made producing drones and high end ones at that (eg lancet). Truth is, Ukraine casualties are too high for the world to cope with so they aren't being told the true numbers.* I think anyone who has followed the war closely would acknowledge that Ukraine has taken significant casualties, but you'd have to be INSANE to also not acknowledge that the Russians have taken far, FAR more casualties during this war. You can't have watched all the videos from this war and see how the Russians really don't give a damn about their troops and how many casualties they take as long as they achieve their objectives. To put it simply if Ukraine and Russia both had about the same population size, the Russians would've ended this war LONG AGO because of the massive losses they've taken. This war wouldn't be going into the 3rd year and Russia would've either retreated or been pushed out of most if not all of Ukraine by now. If Russia was doing so well and taking so few casualties then they wouldn't be announcing another wave of mobilization for 300,000 more troops just a few days ago would they? Like I said if they had the population size the same as Ukraine they would've been done for by now.

Currently Russia use around 10k per 24H but the tops for russia has been as high as 80-90k per 24H Ukraine is currently in an extreme disadvantage due to massive lack of shells from west. They are currently using around 1k per 24H. the highes they have had is about 9k per 24H and that was during the start of last summers Offensive battles. They have plugged some parts of the massive shortage with Drones but that is only a short term stopgap. Artillery is an extreamly important part of any offensive operation as it also protects forward attack infatery. that is something no Drone system ever can hope to achive in a large enough scale.
@xycid
@xycid 2 месяца назад
that's correct. at the beginning of the war (Mariupol, Rubizhne, etc), russian artillery fired up to 60k/day. But since they planned for a quick offensive, the 60k/day wasn't sustainable, and within months it dropped to 10k. The reason it took russians many months to capture Bakhmut and Avdiivka is b/c they no longer can 60k/day. So what russians are doing now is using heavy 250-500kg glide bombs to supplement their artillery (so-called "KABs). These have been effective, and Ukraine is trying to knock off as many russian Su-34 (bombers) as they can.
