2S22 Bohdana from serial production are spotted on front-line. They have slighty different armored cabin and more automatic fire system than still used prototype

The first M1117 Guardian Armored Security Vehicles finally arrive in Ukraine, a year ahead of schedule!

The 425th Assault Battalion Skala posted a video on their social media of them using the vehicle in a training exercise.

The US Senate Defense Appropriations Sub-Committee had been pushing the DoD to figure out how to expedite the pending refurbishment work to get these vehicles ready. It's possible that Greece agreed to surrender some of their positions in the queue to facilitate this.

Sweden just announced a day or so ago that they're giving Ukraine all of their Pansarbandvagn 302 (pbv 302) APCs.

It certainly is.

These coop tanks really do need to have a flock of chickens installed, this one had forgotten that little detail, along with the main gun ammo and the filling for its ERA blocks. Then they could provide some useful service, by providing some eggs for the platoon's breakfast...

It may be a Russian attempt to make a British style Boiling Vessel, ie BV or "bivvie"??

And only a T-62 under that lash-up tin shed, I wonder are the models using the old war memorial T-34s coming in perhaps a month or two once they lever those off thier plinths?

Blyat-mobile is apparently a nickname for these things. Most suitable!:)

Oh, and chickens do have thier uses in modern warfare, as already proven by us cunning British!:doh:

So perhaps adding a few chooks might provide the Russians with some additional electronic warfare potential, by keeping the jammers power supply hot in winter?

F-16s are now operational and have flown combat missions in Ukraine as of 31 July 2024.

So call them being available August 2024?

Meanwhile, what appears to be a North Korean Bulsae-4 M-2018 Non-Line-Of-Sight (NLOS) ATGM vehicle has appeared near Kharkiv on an Ukranian UAV's cameras.

I built an icon for it yesterday and added it to the NK and Russian OOB's

That said what this means in RL is the Russians now have a missile that does the same job as a hunter-killer drone only a bit quicker and more efficiently than a drone and likely longer range. The downside is the launch vehicle is a bigger target for a hunter-killer drone than a drone launch site would be.........betting these things will become a priority target PDQ
