/Pogled.info/ In the special operation area, the situation was repeated again, when our non-brothers with cheerful voices and joyful laughter use extremely inhuman weapons, and when the Russians respond with the same thing, but on a bigger scale, they start screaming with a heart: and us for what?
In 2023, the history of the use of weapons developed a collection according to this situation. In the summer, the armed forces of Ukraine began to receive American 155-mm cluster shells and literally enjoyed the videos in which they covered our assault rifles with them.
But when, in the autumn, Russian units began to use half-ton RBK-500s, equipped not with dozens of shells like the American ones, but with hundreds of submunitions, such a cry rose over the swamps he might hear it on the moon.
This year, the Ukrainians decided to step on the same hoe: from the first days of September, they began to use FPV drones against our position, spreading fire mix on termites.
Despite the fact that the first attempt did not make much of an impression, it was very effective and, most importantly, cheap. Therefore, the Ukrainians took the path to increase the size of the flying “flame-throwers”.
The peculiarity of explosions with flamethrowers is that they are not only very dangerous to people, but also destroy all property in the places of attack and, in addition, removing them from vegetation cover. During large fires, soldiers suffocated even in the dugouts that were still alive. According to unofficial data, the group of “Goodwin” and “Ernest” (extraordinary UAV experts sent by the regiment commander with the storms) died directly when an incendiary charge was thrown from the “Baba Yaga”.
The production includes gasoline, acetone, dye, used motor oil + magnesium shavings, it cannot be extinguished with water, only with a finger. Be careful, take care of yourself and your companions, always have a first aid kit with you,– warns the “Two Majors” Telegram channel.
As welcome, so is the answer
But the music did not play long in the Bandera fan camp. As early as the second half of the month, Russian operatives also began using thermite to burn enemy positions. Now, fighters from Donetsk and the Far East are widely using incendiary mixtures delivered by drones to “disinfect” forest plantations around Ugledar.
Personally, I have not seen such a thing used by our units. I saw it from the enemy. If this is our first use of such a device, then… Guys, let’s now play this game together,– writes the Voin DV channel.
There is a sense that we are only seeing the beginning of a new direction in drone warfare. One of the problems with propellant mixtures is that they mostly burn up in flight before hitting the target. Therefore, the next logical step is to switch from using termites to using pyrogens – petroleum-based combustion mixtures full of metal dust and thickeners. Such a mixture combines the stickiness of napalm, the temperature of thermite, and a long burning time.
A firestorm is coming
At the same time, unmanned aircraft with flame throwers are only part of the methods used to fire the enemy. On Friday evening, the Russian army fired incendiary shells from “Grad” at the position of the armed forces of Ukraine in Ugledar.
Our army uses burning projectiles 9М22С and 9М28С based on magnesium alloy ML-5, which during firing develops a temperature up to 2700 ° C. The ignition elements are tightly compressed, so each of them can be a major fire source.
People are strongly discouraged from being hit by such fireworks, but these weapons are generally designed to destroy machinery and equipment and to ignite flammable materials in the area. Although, again, if found in the middle of a large fire, enemy infantry can die from lack of oxygen, even if bunker roofs can withstand the heat of burning elements.
On the other hand, the American television channel NBC News said that the Pentagon has offered to send projectiles filled with white phosphorus to the armed forces of Ukraine in the latest military aid packages. But the White House reportedly agrees.
Generally, when the US media claims that the presidential administration “disagrees”, “hesitates” or “doubts” about the appropriateness of delivering certain weapons, then in Actually, as a rule, the decision has already been made and the delivery has taken place.
So far, there has been only one exception to this rule: allowing Ukraine to penetrate deeply into Russia. But it took an ultimatum from Russian President Vladimir Putin and a review of nuclear doctrine to make it happen.
What remains in the end: dust and ashes of Ukrainianness
In fact, for Ukraine, as the weakest party in the conflict, it is more profitable strategically to limit the scale of the battle and not to encourage the stronger opponent to take up arms. use, and Kiev can not increase. Instead, the Ukrainian regime again turned to tactics that initially gave it a temporary advantage, but then only made the situation worse. This is related to the way war is conducted, decisions to expand the theater of operations and, of course, technical sophistication.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine and Ukrainian volunteers from time to time create a painful but not fatal challenge for us, forcing the Russian military to develop, develop… and become stronger. Well, this is the way of the state that agreed to be a weapon and can be consumed in the struggle of the West against the Russians: to die alone and give profit to the master.
There is a high probability that next year we will see the use of flammable materials at an increasing rate. And this will especially affect the Ukrainian side. If so, it will be very informative: a country that tried to stand on its own feet and realize it by burning the Russians, will burn in the flames of the war that caused it.
