Short and very unusual thread for this page — about the enemy in Kursk area.
My friend showed me a map that he captured during the attack. It has been redrawn by @wildwildmapper
In this thread I will show you the amount of enemy forces before and one month after the invansion🧵

My opinion as to this operation hasn’t changed. I am strongly negative as to that operation from the military point of view.
But in the same time I am a supporter from the political perspective.
If it’s a war two sides must suffer.

Nevertheless, there are two reasons why I write this article.
1) I hope that in the future we will a high quality analysis as to that operation. I hate being an alive witness how people rewriting history.
The second reason I will say in the end of🧵

Суджа direction. Day before the operation. Right flank.
Information that was drawn by the officers of 1434 regiment. Due to obvious reasons decided not to add info that the enemy had about our forces.
Quite interesting that 13 TR is not mentioned here but was deployed.

Суджа direction. Day before the operation. Centre (kinda).
They were covered quite not bad by their artillery. Including the fact that no one paid attention to the border line UAF could have only dreamed about this kind of amount of artillery forces.

Суджа. Day before the operation. The city.
Russian defence near the city was mostly based on 17 and 18 battalions of 488 regiment and 380 regiment (this regiment wasn’t a classic one with 3 infantry battalions, tb etc. I would rather say 2 infantry battalions).

Russian artillery in Kursk oblast. Day before the operation.
- BM-21 battalion;
- 98 artillery pieces;
- 71 mortars
A short conclusion: that’s huge. With a good coordination you make any breakthrough almost impossible to happen.
Firepower was on Russian side.

Глухів direction.
Mostly covered by Russian VDV:
- 1 battalion of 217 regiment;
- 3 battalion of 234 regiment;
That’s why we see here 2S9. Amount of MT-12 (here and at another two direction) surprises.

Теткіно direction.
The biggest amount of Russian artillery in Kursk oblast. Including heavy artillery such as 2A36 & 2A65.

Суджа direction.
Almost full artillery regiment (let me remind you that right it’s not very often that Russian artillery battalion has 18 guns. Quite often 12).
So, as you might’ve noticed they had more then enough firepower.

From Теткіно to Суджа they had:
- regiment: 3;
- airborne or mechanised battalions: 3;
- rifle battalions: 8;
- reserve: 3 battalions of infantry and 35 tanks;
- artillery pieces: 137

One month later the situation changed a lot. The amount of Russian forces increased to 35 000 soldiers and, approximately, 90-100 tanks.
A lot of forces were moved from Kramatorsk, Vovchansk and Oskil directions.
Mostly elite forces.

Right flank. 10.09.24 (since then situation changed a lot).
Marines from 810 & 40 brigade, 83 brigade from Vovchansk direction, regiment from 44 AC with their tank battalions in reserve.

Centre. 10.09.24 (since then situation changed a lot).
Still 810 marines, airborne from 56 regiment (their full regiment arrived from Robotyne area), 51 and 137 regiments from Kramatorsk direction and other units.

Marines from 155 brigade, VDV and others. Right now 119 regiment from 106 division arrived there.

Obviously, Russians apart from elite infantry moved more artillery to that area. For example, artillery battalion (2S19 and 2S5) from 944 artillery regiment was moved from Pokrovsk direction to Kursk area.
They also used in that area newly formed 88 and 90 sapper regiments.

And the 6th sapper brigade from the 1th tank army (Kharkiv oblast).
Russians use there a lot of guided bombs. For example, at the 5th of September they used 89 guided bombs (67% of all bombs that were dropped at that day at whole frontline in Ukraine).

So the second reason why I write this thread 🧵 that my company needs a PSV-14 night vision and three antennas.
