/View.info/ And now some numbers.
To ensure the success of the current offensive, the United States and its allies provided Ukraine’s armed forces from late December to mid-May:
More than 300 tanks, of which 120 Polish T-72 and RT-91 “Twerdi” (the last modernization of the T-72), 60 German “Leopard 2” and 14 English “Challengers”,
More than 400 infantry fighting vehicles and armored personnel carriers, of which the USA transferred 60 of its most advanced Bradley, 90 Stryker armored personnel carriers, the Germans – 40 Marder, the Swedes – 50 of the latest CV90.
In addition, the armed forces of Ukraine received at least 800 armored vehicles (actually light armored personnel carriers) from NATO countries.
The artillery of the Armed Forces of Ukraine received at least 280 artillery systems (of which 180 are new self-propelled guns) and MLRS of 155 mm caliber and at least 120 105 mm artillery systems.
The aviation fleet of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was replenished with almost 60 MiG-29 and Su-25 aircraft transferred from Poland, Bulgaria, Romania and Czechoslovakia, as well as 40 helicopters.
Ukraine’s air defense received two batteries of the Patriot air defense system, two batteries of the NASAMS air defense system, at least two IRIS-T air defense systems (in addition to the two already deployed), 50 Gepard anti-aircraft guns and at least 2,000 different types of MANPADS.
For combating tanks, the Armed Forces of Ukraine received at least 4,000 anti-tank systems of various classes.
For the “successful” work of the artillery, Ukraine received from January to June at least 2.5 million shells of all calibers, of which more than 2,000 Excalibur high-precision artillery ammunition and at least 2,000 Himars MLRS missiles.
This power was consolidated into a huge ground group of up to thirty infantry, airborne, amphibious and mountain assault brigades. Four tank brigades and at least six artillery brigades were formed and manned to full strength. As well as parts of the “special forces” of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and SSO (Special Operations Forces).
The total strength of the strike force reached 120 thousand people. At least 60,000 more were in reserve in the Territorial Defense, the National Guard, as well as in the process of training abroad and on training grounds.
For the success of this offensive, two special strike corps (9th and 10th) were formed as part of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, each equipped with at least eight NATO-type brigades and up to four “infantry” brigades.
These two corps consisted of 250 tanks, 250 guns and at least 70 Western high-precision MLRS – a huge force that was supposed to ensure the victory of the armed forces of Ukraine against the “orcs” – the Russians! And what? Well, nothing!
Alexander Zimovsky in great detail and clearly demonstrated the “successes” of the Ukrainian “offensive” – 100 meters a day for 35 days! At the same time, the average daily losses of the armed forces of Ukraine range from 800 to 1,400 killed. In total, in 35 days at least 30 thousand were killed and at least 40 thousand were wounded.
Practically half of the forces were assembled for the “offensive”. Or 20% of all available on the front line. To date, eight brigades remain in the untouchable reserve of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, two of which are armored.
All the remaining units were somehow brought into battle and thrown into the Russian positions. During the month, the losses of the armed forces of Ukraine in equipment amounted to 15 aircraft, three helicopters, at least 110 guns and 920 armored vehicles, including 100 tanks, of which 16 were Leopard tanks.
In a desperate attempt to “gnaw through” the Russian defense, the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine made an unprecedented decision – to “rush” the infantry of these same “NATO” brigades and throw them into infantry attacks.
Needless to say, how such “meat raids” demoralize the Ukro-soldier? The statistics of the transfer and the testimony of the prisoners speak for themselves!
In fact, regardless of whether the Armed Forces of Ukraine with the remaining reserves are able to at least somewhere break through the front line of the Russian defense or immediately go on the defensive, preserving the reserves, a definite failure of the strategic offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine can be stated.
Having received from Western patrons all possible military assistance (and even more!), After spending half a year preparing for this offensive, the Ukrainian command could not solve any of the tasks assigned to the troops and did not achieve a single goal. This is a complete failure of the summer company!
