1/ @aXielMeMer9432 and @waffentraeger just found a lot of updated images boht on Google and Livingatlas. Among these, there are several major storage bases, and as usual, the pattern is them becoming depleted. Let's see a few of them.

2/ Before going deeper, I want to make clear I haven't yet counted any equipment left at these. Still, just a look at them shows that they're not much left.

3/ First of all, the 6018th Central Tank Reserve Base. This one was included in @Vishun_military's recent report, but now it's available for all to see that last September most remaining useful equipment was gone.

4/ Mostly the scrapyard remains filled, but little else remains.

5/ The 943rd is another paradigmatic case of study. @waffentraeger analysed it months ago, but now he have more recent footage from last July.

6/ This base is all but abandoned, mostly destroyed hulls remain. Besides that, a few 2S5s, tanks, BMPs and D-30s. Maybe up to 30 pieces of equipment in total. Risk of Ukrainian strikes, this base is located in Crimea) probably was a deciding factor.

7/ Another base, featured in one of @CovertCabal's latest videos, is the 904th, near the Ukrainian border in Bryansk. Mostly empty now, and the remaining equipment dispersed due to the risk of Ukrainian strikes.

8/ Two more interesting bits of data: 1) we noticed equipment being withdrawn from all bases, even trucks:

9/

10/ and 2) MT-LBus also being removed from bases where they sat unmoved for years and in small quantities:

11/ And ocassinally also old BTRs:

12/ Also increased moutains of cannibalized hulls and spares parts everywhere, which fits with decreasing amounts of mothballed and unusable vehicles. But that's all for now. Hope it was interesting!
