I just finished counting the BTR-70s and BRDM-2s at the new footage from the 349th (I forgot about those two types of vehicles). Two interesting things: BTR-70s went down from 222 earlier this year (266 prewar) to 141, while BRDM-2s went up from 215 to 260. Image So BTR-70s still look like they're being pulled from storage for X or Y reason (re: in the linked thread I explained possible reasons for this).

By now probably all main storage equipment types are below 50% of the prewar inventory. Image

Specially if you consider that most of the footage is +6 months old.

1/ A thread on some storage bases we missed during all our previous counts. Image 2/ A while ago the crew of @tochnyi published an article on the Russian logistics system and its facilities. Ever since, I've been looking at some of the bases noted there that we never noticed before. tochnyi.info/2024/09/logist…

1/ Final thread on stored Russian engineering vehicles. This times we'll take a look at a miscellaneous mix of engineering vehicles, such as minelayers, mine clearing vehicles, trench diggers... and see whether they're being used or not. Image 2/ As with the other two engineering threads, this won't be an in-depth analysis, just a overall glance at their storage stocks. Re: ARV and pontoon threads:

1/ Short thread on the status of Russian stored pontoon equipment. Let's see how it's looking after the many river crossing operations the Russian army attempted during this war. Image 2/ I don't think anybody needs to be explained why potoons are so important for any miltary: they allow engineer units to set up river crossings needed to carry out operations through water bodies.

According to this information, Russia should be able to restart production of W-46 engines needed to refurbish old T-72 Urals/As. This means that they'd be finally able to refurbish those tanks, that until now have barely been touched, as shown by @HighMarsed.

1/ Last thread about the mid-2024 AFV count update in collaboration with @CovertCabal. This one is about MT-LBus and also BRDM-2s, as those don't seem worthy of a thread for themselves. Image 2/ As usual, first the video:

1/ Thread on the status of stored BTRs in mid-2024 with the collaboration of @CovertCabal. Some trends starting to appear in storage bases regarding older BTRs, and they are very interesting. Image 2/ As usual, first here is the video with Covert:

1/ Thread on the state of Russian BMDs in storage in mid 2024 in collaboration with @CovertCabal. Some interesting trends to analyze here. Image 2/ First of all, here's the video with Covert:

1/ A summary of the state of Russian storage bases and stored BMPs in mid-2024 with the help of @CovertCabal. 2/ First of all, here are the overall numbers of stored Russian APCs and IFVs, and also a comparison with the tally in early 2024. As you can see, over half of the prewar amount remains, and over a thousand have been pulled out from storage since this year began.

1/ A couple days ago @CovertCabal released his MT-LB count video, done in collaboration with me. I was celebrating my birthday AFK this weekend, but now it's time to make a thread about it. 2/ First of all, here are the current numbers: Image

Time to reassess my predictions and see how far off I was this time. For one, the numbers aren't that different. They apparently have stopped unmothballing stored BMDs and most BMPs are so broken that they are still in storage, but they do have started to take a lot of BTR-70s, MT-LBus and also MT-LBs are mostly gone.

Looks like other bases such as the 1295th are practically empty too.

There might be some equipment left at the 187th after all, tho.

A kind soul (not sure if he wants to be mentioned here) just sent me a lot of recent footage. Many interesting things. The 187th is completely empty now.

A few days ago someone said that I didn't have a chart showing all AFV numbers together, so I'm reposting this tweet. Numbers have changed a bit, I'll update it ASAP, although there hasn't been any breakthrough footage so far.

1/ Small thread on some insights on stored Russian military trucks. Image 2/ Like I said in the past, Russia has an immense number of stored trucks, probably in the 40-50k ballpark. However, most are junk, parked there for decades without proper maintenance.
