Re: Ukraine OOB New and Old Toys
 

I just read some article from https://en.defence-ua.com/weapon_and...ine-11351.html and NK has also other version of Bulsae-4 M-2022 installed on small truck 6x6 which rather wasn't sent to Russia.

And since 2016 also Bulsae-4 mounted on Mi-2 helicopters. That is interesting story about Mi-2 in NK. They were imported from Poland in parts and are know locally as Hyŏksin-2. First appears in 1977 in the DPRK unarmed then were fitted with four 4x 9M14 Malyutka (Bulsae-1) 1980-1984 manufactured. Insted of Malyutka they can carry two 57mm UB-16 rocket pods or 4 Malyutka & and two 57mm pods. And now Malyutka were exchanged to Bulsae-4.

There is nothing in that article besides a vague reference to "TV-guided missile in development" so until better info is found I am not going to build that into the game. Global security has a similar vague reference..
That could be anything

Challenger II moving at speed in Kursk oblast with a folded up cope cage.

Re: Ukraine OOB New and Old Toys
 

The overhead cage is really not that folded up but what I found new and interesting is what appears to be a double-layer screen on the back rear hull

If you move that video frame by frame it eventually shows it to be a single layer standing what appears to be a couple of feet away from the rear of the vehicle

Marder 1A3 with cope cages

Re: Ukraine OOB New and Old Toys
 

Can someone kindly explain what kind of website this is? Where is it based? Who has put this information together? I'm a bit paranoid about clicking on links to websites that I don't know very well. On the other hand, I would like more information on the weapons systems being used in Ukraine.

I'm especially interested in drone technology, but the library has few recent books on drones, and most of the websites I've seen are site I have never heard of.

None of my books cover newer weapons systems. I have a Jane's warship recognition guide published in 2006, and an armored vehicles recognition guide published around 2005, etc.

Re: Ukraine OOB New and Old Toys
 

It's X ( twitter ) and all it's doing is showing the Marders with the added protection cages. Since it shows a moving vehicle and a crewman I would suggest it came from the Ukrainians in Kursk

That's just my opinion, I didn't post it

Re: Ukraine OOB New and Old Toys
 

Ah, I see. I don't use Twitter.

And I apologize for the double post above. I tried to edit my original post, but somehow wound up creating another. Then the site would not let me delete the original post.
