Yesterday we had a task near Vovchansk and I have a couple words to say about Russian tactics, artillery ammo, some politician bullshit from the USA and others.
A short thread🧵👇

My guys and I left our base at 4:00 in the morning. At 5:00 we were in Vovchansk.
Firstly it was calm. Even bugs didn’t fly a lot and weren’t disturbing me.
We had a task to find/prepare a normal place for our future recon operations.

We had a task to find/prepare a normal place for our future recon operations.
A couple of places we have found were quite bad and dangerous so we moved forward.
Apart from my gun and ammo I carried approximately 35 kg on me. Firstly it was not bad.

We walked approximately 5-6 kilometres and took a break. Checked a map where to go.
Due to the specific of our work, air recon, we need to consider hills for better connection with a drone.

Finally found a place. Need to say that there a lot of drones in the air (recon Mavic and FVP drones).
Constantly hiding in the bushes. Cause you never know whether it’s Ukrainian or not.

Found a nice place and started digging.
It took a us a couple of hours (that’s not a finished project).

And now the most important thing: from 6:00 till 15:00 EVERY minute Russians were firing from 6 to 12 artillery shells. Every minute without stopping. U may count the approximate total amount.
And 5 guided bombs.

Our forces also fired back. Approximately 25-35 mortar shells, 10-20 artillery shells and 15-20 MRLS rockets.
That’s about artillery shelling advantage.

Thanks God they were not firing at us.
All their artillery placed in Russia. They are firing everywhere and burning everything: villages, Vovchansk, forest.
But we cannot fire back with US (and others) supplied artillery from a safe distance.

What I don’t really like about modern Russian tactics — it’s quite situational actions. I mean it’s very hard for them to deploy tanks and AFVs.
So they just use stormtroopers and sometimes they reach success.

Russian operational group «North» doesn’t have enough tanks and mechanised units to use them. Cause they will loose them very fast and it’s impossible (inside of a group) to replace them.
Apart from advancing they also need to defend the border line. Remember that.

Right in Vovchansk the 138 Russian brigade mostly employed. And some stormtroopers groups. That is not enough .
So in the nearest future they will deploy the 83 air assault brigade from Bachkmut direction.

Folks, right now we have an urgent need to fix two our cars.
The price is not very big (500$) but considering the fact that we fixed the previous time our cars on our own (from the salary) we would appreciate your support:
osint4ua@gmail.com
That’s our PP
