#Ukraine: Extremely Rare Ukrainian T-84 Oplot obr. 1999 tanks currently deployed by the Ukrainian army in the East. It is believed that approximately 6 of them are operated by Ukraine - and in this case likely belong to the 14th Separate Mechanized Brigade.

Maybe because we just found the footage and corrected ourselves?

To be accurate, the T-80BV tank seen here is not a recent loss - it was taken out in early April in #Mariupol - as filmed by a Russian Orion UCAV. However photos from ground appeared just now.

#Ukraine: The Ukrainian forces keep receiving foreign military aid - here we can see a glimpse of M113A1/A2 armored personnel carriers donated by Lithuania - 20 claimed to be delivered. Lithuania received a huge number of these APCs in the early 2000s from Germany.

Sorry, where is the evidence these are "NATO howitzers"?

Apologies- Zaporizhzhia Oblast.

#Ukraine: Near Novopil village, on the border of Donetsk and Zaporizhia Oblasts, the 98th Azov Battalion/Ukrainian Army used a 9M113 Konkurs pattern ATGM to strike a Russian Armoured vehicle- which seems to be successful. However, identification is difficult.

#Ukraine: Tachankas of the Ukrainian army- a Browning M2HB .50 machine gun installed on a Nissan Patrol 4x4 of the Zaporizhzhia Territorial Defense. The M2HB is likely one that was donated by Italy, given the ammo seen here is Italian API-T made by Società Metallurgica Italiana.

#Ukraine: A Russian Orlan-10 reconnaissance UAV was shot down by the Ukrainian forces on the border of Kherson and Dnipropetrovsk oblasts - interestingly, the drone has 2 serial numbers at same time, meaning some parts were cannibalized from a different Orlan.

For comparison, Italian FH70 howitzers are mostly painted in one color and are usually coupled by Fiat 6605 (or similar) trucks.

1,209

#Ukraine: We looked more deeply into this FH70 - and we believe this particular example was supplied by Estonia. It has very distinctive 3-color camo and the most importantly the truck used to tow it is a MAN Kat 1 6x6 - as used by the Estonian army.

#Ukraine: Recently delivered Italian FH70 155mm howitzers in use with the Ukrainian army. Interestingly, the projectiles seen here are Finnish 155 tkr88 (a derrivative of French LU 111 HE) with a range of 24 kilometers. This may be a part of recent undisclosed aid from Finland.
