I think you're better off in the other Ukraine thread (the one ostensibly for "news posts") where you and the rest of the buttblasted Ukrofags can circlejerk about the Ghost of Kiev and the Phantom Single Tank Destroying a Column of Tanks Unopposed of Kharkov in peace without anyone telling you you're retarded.

I completely forgot the Hungarian election happened on Sunday.
These are even better results than I expected, especially glad to see that Our Homeland did better than expected.

Was it ever explained why Russia decided to use Z of all symbols?
They should've used a vowel, so it'd be funnier when people outlaw it. Maybe Y, and reverse psychology Ukraine into calling it Kiev. Better yet, the Russians should have painted rainbows on everything, to make that the new forbidden symbol of hate.

I thought tits didn’t resist the force of death but I guess tit eval is a superpower that I must use responsibly now.

It's a simple identifiable symbol that's hard to mistake for anything else. Any meaning is definitely post-hoc. They should've gone for "A" or "U". Then when the G*rmans and assorted retards went around banning letters they'd be doing it to a vowel and have to off their alphabet.

The video is obnoxiously cut, but you see at least three burning wrecks and a bunch of corpses. Question is if the Ukrainian tank is one of the wrecks, or if the tank got one kill and the rest was artillery fire.It's a great video but I guess "STUNNING: watch a tank in defilade destroy an APC and fail to stop the rest of the convoy" wasn't on message enough
Still ballsy though. Like I said earlier it's a Wittmann moment. Basically a lone suicide attack against an entire armored convoy. There's even a moment where a Russian tank fires at the Ukrainian tank, but the building it uses for cover catches the shot.
Just like Wittmann's ambush it's unclear how severe the losses are to Russia. But it's a propaganda win for the Ukrainians and it wasn't the worst idea to use an ambush to slow down the convoy to make them a easier target for the artillery

You're not wrong. Have you seen the RVN diaspora Fakebook groups? Some went from Remember South Vietnam to full-blown Ukrainian propaganda machine from Day 1. No it's not Fall of Saigon II, just two Eastern Slavic oligarchies-kleptocracies duking it out.

I believe Z,V and others are strategic markings for regiments or their direction. The popularity of symbols actually increased with pro-war sentiment among Russian citizens, and the government recognized this.
Although government propaganda is pretty shitty compared to genuine support,
This is from the ministry of defence.

I would love to see that because this one is just
"tank shoots" cut "burning wrecks" cut " tank shoots" cut "burning wrecks"
with a bunch of footage from a completely different area and artillery bombardment sliced in-between for some reason.
I will gladly and proudly take an "L" if someone can actually produce the OG clip. No cuts or edits. So that we can actually see the hits that destroyed the vehicles in question.
Because the shots that were filmed actually just show an (admittedly brave AF) UKR tank shooting at everything but hitting nothing. Seriously:
0:07 Seemingly a miss. Round impacts behind the vehicles (which dont seem to be hit)
0:14 Hit (kinda) . Clearly impacts dirt in front of target and ricochets into back/turret of APC.
Technically a miss, but the round was still enough to cause the target to start smoking near the turret.
Also burning wreck appears in that location after a cut, indicating that this was indeed a kill.
That makes for 1 (one) recorded kill.
0:47 Does not seem to connect. Impact is not visible. Targeted vehicle drives off (visually) unharmed.
Thats 3 shots fired from a tank and 3 misses, with one luckly shot disabling a target despite being a miss. Thats not exactly Kurt Knispel tier work.
Also, the rest of the video just shows random clips and artillery fire hitting near (presumably) the same convoy.
This whole war is just ass when it comes to actual combat footage. The Syrians duct-taped gopros to tanks.
This is edited more than a montage parody and does not even show one clean hit from this super-tank that ambushed "an entire" convoy.
Not to mention that things are far worse than i thought if the Ukies are already at the "Last Tiger" state of the war.
Or, that tank was not alone and unsupported, making that "one tank" claim even more of a lie than the supporting artillery (that is clearly visible) already is.

Dude, it's from the Dmytro Korchynsky Brotherhood Battalion. I'm pretty sure we can trust them, they were in Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain

Clueless about equipment, but read something about this British Starstreak manpad ( some of which have been provided to the Ukrainians recently) being a badass addition to their collection of shooty gadgets.

He obviously isn't mad, he's only on the Russian side for personal reasons. He thinks he'll get more

You mean like this?
oh, wait, here's a picture of one.... I'm trying to calculate how many of these they would need and how fast they would have to be stuffing hapless folks in there to cover up the traces of "tens of thousands" of war crimed.

One of the copes I've seen in this thread from ukebros is that the Ukrainian army is now stronger than before because they've captured hundreds of pieces of Russian armor or something, seeming to handwave over the fact that the Russians have posted plenty of videos of destroyed or captured Ukrainian armor. If the AFU was really sitting pretty when it comes to vehicles, why is Zelenskuyi begging NATO for APCs and tanks? Aid which both the UK and Germany have refused to give.
This article doesn't mention, but I believe the count of the hardware being sent by the Czechs is 63 pieces total. These ancient probably rotted out pieces of soviet era gear could move what, 500 soldiers max? If you believe Wikipedia, pre-war Ukraine had thousands of vehicles. If their inventory is now somehow greater due to captured Russian vehicles, these 63 pieces mean jack shit and are a symbolic gesture at best.
Between Russian air strikes (which we know have hit AFU bases), artillery, and tank/infantry strikes you have to be absolutely delusional to think that a lot of the AFU armor (possibly most of it) hasn't been destroyed. On top of that over the last 3 weeks RAF strikes have been targeting fuel and oil depots, if your goal is to move thousands of soldiers for a counter attack at Kherson or Kharkiv or Donbas you're gonna need a ton of fuel.
I think it's unclear at this time if the AFU would have the gas to launch such an assault, let alone the vehicles. This is also why a Ukrainian invasion of Belarus or Russia is insane. By their own accounts they've damaged railways and blown up bridges, who knows what their actual supply lines look like.
