☆ The battle of Kursk hinges on the Russian railroad

Related storiesExactly how overloaded the Russian rail network may be isn't clear. Despite the humiliation of foreign troops occupying Russian soil, Russian forces continue to grind forward in bloody attacks at places such as Pokrovsk, in the Donetsk region. Relying on trucks would require an extraordinary number of vehicles, so it seems likely that Russian forces at Kursk will require multiple railheads that depend on a limited number of railroad bridges. However, Ukraine has captured data about the Russian railway system, which will make it easier to disrupt operations, Fraser noted. Barros believes that Ukraine could seriously disrupt Russian rail traffic and logistics if the US would lift those restrictions.

☆ Video appears to capture the first use of Russia's monstrous 6,600-pound glide bomb in Ukraine and the immense destruction it causes

Read previewNew video footage appears to capture the first combat employment of Russia's 6,600-pound glide bomb in Ukraine, a highly destructive capability that analysts say could be a tremendous problem for Kyiv. The munition was outfitted with a unified planning and correction module that turns it into a glide bomb, meaning it could have been air-launched from far away. Reportedly the first video of a Russian FAB-3000 UMPK glide bomb strike. Advertisement"Russian forces have already increased guided and unguided glide bomb use against Ukraine, particularly in Kharkiv Oblast, to devastating effect," they said. Unlike conventional gravity bombs, glide bombs have flight control surfaces and are standoff weapons.

☆ Russia's increasingly turning to fast ATVs and motorbikes to find Ukrainian targets, but they're very vulnerable
  + stars: | 2024-05-13 | by ( Jake Epstein | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
Read previewRussian forces are increasingly relying on light and fast vehicles like ATVs and motorbikes to move troops to the front lines, conduct reconnaissance of Ukrainian positions, and execute assaults. Ukraine's forces were operating quad bikes as early as April 2022, just weeks after Russia launched its full-scale invasion, to ambush Russian forces. AdvertisementWhile Russia's lighter vehicles are more vulnerable to Ukrainian attacks than its heavy armor, Moscow has still lost scores of tanks and armored vehicles on the battlefield, including to Kyiv's exploding FPV drones. AdvertisementRussia hasn't completely turned its back on its armored vehicles, though. Last week, for instance, Moscow launched a new assault in Ukraine's northeastern Kharkiv region and tried using armored vehicles to break through defensive lines.

☆ The wild-looking Russian 'turtle tanks' that keep showing up may not be as crazy as they seem

Its new "turtle tanks" may look silly, but there are indications they may be effective. Some OSINT pages highlighted the turtle tank's role in the assault on Krasnohorivka.

The Russian turtle tanks are a clear step beyond the widely documented "cope cages" both sides have relied on to try and shield their heavy armor throughout the war.

☆ Ukraine war footage captures a different kind of exploding drone driving for miles on a suicide mission to blow up a bridge

Read previewNew footage from the war in Ukraine to show an unmanned ground vehicle loaded up with explosives driving for miles to hit a road bridge. Eventually, the drone makes its way to the underpass of a large road bridge, subsequently exploding beneath it. Video was posted a week ago.https://t.co/SSvl2IaRcZ pic.twitter.com/tTbqKI5E7S — Rob Lee (@RALee85) June 12, 2022Some UGVs, like the THeMIS vehicle Ukraine has, are designed to evacuate injured troops and transport supplies. UAVs, which have shaped much of the fighting in Ukraine, are often employed for one-way strike missions, dropping explosives, and reconnaissance. Ukraine has also used exploding drone boats, unmanned surface vessels, or USVs, loaded with explosives, to strike targets at sea.
