Alcune considerazioni sull'articolo dell'Economist sulle difese antiaeree 🇺🇦, disponibile qui: economist.com/europe/2023/06…
-1 I #Kinzhal intercettati dal sistema #PATRIOT su #Kyiv si muovevano ad una velocità di 1240 m/s secondo gli operatori, questo vuol dire che si muoveva 1/6 ImageImage
In regime SUPERsonico invece che IPERsonico.
-2 nelle fasi iniziali del conflitto, comandanti di divisione delle batterie contraeree sono rimasti in posizione nonostante sapessero che sarebbero stati colpiti di lì a breve per garantire la il funzionamento della batteria. 2/6
-3 alcuni lanciatori BUK 🇺🇦 sono rimasti attivi e hanno operato da dietro le linee nemiche, in territorio sotto controllo 🇷🇺, nascondendosi dove possibile e organizzando agguati contro l'aviazione 🇷🇺.
-4 i sistemi occidentali sono talmente tanto automatizzati e semplici 3/6

1. As I had guessed, the attack near the airport in Mariupol killed 150 Russian troops in these buildings. Ukraine has begun to strike Russian forces forming in large numbers to be sent to Bakhmut as the battle for control continues amid the failing Russian flanks. Image
2. Ukraine has begun to focus on destroying rail lines supplying Russian forces in southern Ukraine. Today Ukraine used a small drone swarm to strike near the Russian rail hub at ##Dzhankoi in northern #Crimea causing a derailment on the critical rail line. Image
3. This followed a claimed sabotage attack on a rail line further south in Crimea near #Simferopol at #Chystenke that also caused a derailment. Image

Ukrainian sources reported that Russian forces launched 6 Kh-47 #Kinzhal air-launched ballistic missiles from 6 MiG-31K aircraft at Kyiv, as well as 9 Kalibr cruise missiles and 10 land-based S-400 and Iskander-M missiles at other rear areas of Ukraine Russia overnight May 15-16.
2/ #Ukraine claims to have shot down all missiles, including all six Kinzhals (repeatedly touted by Russian forces as unstoppable) and nine total drones, including six Shahed-131/136s.
3/ It is unclear which systems Ukrainian forces used to shoot down the Kinzhals, but Ukrainian officials previously attributed the defeat of a #Kinzhal missile to US-provided #Patriot air defense system on May 4.

Uno degli attacchi più pesanti degli ultimi mesi è attualmente in corso contro Kyiv.
Al momento, sembra che l'obbiettivo dell'attacco sia quello di saturare le difese 🇺🇦 con droni e Kinzhal.
Video da civili e telecamere di sicurezza di Kyiv mostrano un enorme volume di fuoco da parte delle batterie contraeree 🇺🇦 (video pubblicati in quanto già circolanti su canali Telegram 🇷🇺).
I detriti dei missili 🇷🇺 intercettati sono caduti in almeno 5 distretti della città. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Alcuni dei detriti recuperati dai civili 🇺🇦 in giro per la città.
La prima foto mostra un frammento di grosse dimensioni, molto probabilmente appartenente ad un Kinzhal 🇷🇺. ImageImageImageImage

More from last night's #Ukraine update:

1. #Kremlin Spokesperson Dmitry Peskov contradicted the pre-war Kremlin justifications for the war by asserting that the Russian “special military operation” began as “a conflict between #Russia and Ukraine.” isw.pub/UkrWar051123
2. Two #Kremlin sources told Russian opposition outlet Meduza that the Kremlin saw #Prigozhin’s attempts to blackmail the Russian MoD on May 5 as a “serious threat” and that Prigozhin is not acting in the Kremlin’s interests.
3. The Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) denied official Ukrainian and US reports that a Patriot missile defense system shot down a #Kinzhal missile on the night of May 4.

Two days ago the Ukrainian city of Ochakov (a town close to the city of Mykolaiv) was subjected to intense Russian missile attacks. The attack caused a massive explosion. Russians claimed that it was a huge ammo depot.

Het eerste openbare commentaar van generaal #Surovikin, de nieuwe bevelhebber van de Russische geallieerde strijdkrachten in #Oekraïne, over de speciale militaire operatie.
Surovikin spreekt over de rauwe werkelijkheid aan het front, waarover de Westerse #MSM liever zwijgen.
#Surovikin: 'Wij hebben een andere strategie. We streven er niet naar om snel op te rukken, maar beschermen elke soldaat en vermalen de oprukkende vijand methodisch.Dit minimaliseert de verliezen en vermindert aanzienlijk het aantal burgerslachtoffers.'

#Surovikin 2: 'De speciale militaire operatie heeft de efficiëntie bevestigd van onze luchtmacht en luchtverdediging. De hypersonische #Kinzhal-raketten hebben hun accuraatheid bewezen. Geen enkele van de vijandelijke luchtverdedigingssystemen kan deze raket onderscheppen.'

If anyone wondered what #crashed today in #russian Stavropol' region injuring 6 firefighters, you'd be very much surprised to know that it wasn't a "Ukrainian UAV", but a russian #Kinzhal missile. ImageImageImageImage
And yes, the "booster" or the nozzle's aerodynamic cover didn't separate from the missile upon its separation from the carrier(?), which would probably mean that the main engine didn't ignite.
Bonus: seems like it has a radar seeker? Image

Update #Ukraine .
Heute soll es keine Übersicht über die Lage an der Front werden, sondern ein etwas tieferer Blick auf zwei Begleiterscheinungen des Ukrainekrieges:
1. die zunehmende Selbstjustiz und die Radikalisierung;
2. Erster-Weltkrieg-Waffen im Einsatz.
Thread👇
(1/19)
Laut übereinstimmenden Medienberichten nehmen Fälle von Selbstjustiz in ukr. Städten dramatisch zu.
Vor allem die sog. "Territorialverteidigung" und Kämpfer der "Freiwilligen-Bataillone" fassen Zivilisten, die sie der Plünderei bezichtigen und fesseln sie an Straßenlaternen.
(2/
Für zusätzliche Demütigung werden den Männern auch oftmals die Hosen runtergelassen.
Selbstverständlich gibt es da keine Art von "Gerichtsverhandlung" oder Ähnliches.
Die Menschen werden gefasst, per Selbstjustiz der Plünderei schuldig gesprochen und an die Laternen gebunden.

Update #Ukraine .
Im Überblick:
- schwere Raketenangriffe in #Mykolaiv ;
- russ. Truppen ändern ihre Taktik;
- #Mariupol steht kurz vor dem Fall;
- ukr. Vertreter räumen erstmals schwere Lage an der Front ein;
- Kiew hofft auf NATO-Gipfel am 28. März.
Neuer Thread👇

Russische Truppen führten einen schweren Raketenangriff auf die Schwarzmeerstadt #Mykolaiv aus.
Zum Ziel wurde der Stützpunkt der 79. ukrainischen Luftlandesturmbrigade, der fast vollständig zerstört wurde.
Die Verluste werden je nach Quelle bei 30 bis 80+ angegeben.
(2/25)
Zuvor hatten russische Truppen die Stadt vom Osten und Norden blockiert.
Ein Sturm der Stadt wird allerdings nicht unternommen, stattdessen gibt es immer mehr Raketenangriffe auf Stellungen der ukr. Armee.
Damit zeigt sich immer deutlicher eine neue Taktik der rus. Truppen
