2·1 year agoPersonally, I’d prefer verified sources, as that stops wild speculation, but I concede this post was correct.
A broken clock and all that… but I did check DeepStateMAP (linked in OP).
Considering your reasearch of the Telegram user, I will remember them as unreliable and not use them as a source. Thank you 👍
“he’s the only one telling the truth”.
Names were off
DeepStateMap calls it “Kamianske”, Google Maps calls it “Kam’yans’ke”. I guess it’s different translations, and maybe Ukrainian vs. Russian (possibly another strike against the Telegram user).
Anyway, thanks 👍.
I cannot vouch for the source’s credibility, however
DeepState UA shows no update in this area.
The villiage is at 47.5308, 35.3948 (linked in OP) and DeepStateMAP shows changes (in the grey zone) on the 2023-07-15 15:36 and 2023-07-17 23:05.
So, is this guy just way better connected than ISW and DeepState?
DeepStateMAP is known to only update based on visually confirmed or UA official statements.
Is he compromising opsec?
Possibly.
Seems they’re compiling their own map.
I don’t think they are keeping historical data.

- Red - Russian Control
- White - Grey Zone
- Yellow - Recent Ukraine Reclaimed Territory
- Uncoloured - Ukraine Controlled (Not recently changed)

The coordinates for this village are 42.2811, 35.5240. No official update there in weeks. I went all the way to 06/20, no change.
That is not the coordinates for the village. As in the OP, it is at 47.5308, 35.3948 and DeepStateMAP shows changes (in the grey zone) on the 2023-07-15 15:36 and 2023-07-17 23:05. DeepStateMAP is known to only update based on visually confirmed or UA official statements.
Well, they are good for attacking concentrations of enemy soldiers.
The FPV drone files over the “Tulip” and then turns 180 degrees to attack it, almost like they wanted to warn them. If not they should choose a better attack path next time.
Bigger EFP and twice as fast. So do you think it’s capable of travelling 200m before penetration?
(CBU-97 Sensor Fuzed Weapon (SFW) with BLU-108 submunition/skeet)
True. It just seems like a waste of the element of surprise. Maybe he was a high value target.
Apparently that EFP is travelling at 2000m/s (Mach 6) and can penetrate up to 140mm of RHA. They don’t provide the weight of the EFP.
(This might be all wrong and not how it works.) If the search radius is 100m and search angle is 30degrees the triangle would be a=173m (“height”, not accounting for angle), b=100m (search radius), c=200m (longest distance, not accounting for angle). I don’t know if it looks like a ~200m distance or not.

I love the video production quality.
Also, great to see observation systems continue to be destroyed with some regularity.
The problem (for the operator) is once they are detected they will most likely still be there later to be attacked. And they are a static target.
(Supposedly) the aftermath.
This. Presumably the same person who is originally responsible for this video. It’d be better if they stopped.
Agreed.
Similar to IR lasers on rifles, anyone with night vision can see what you’re aiming at (and where you are). Also like watching someone’s tracer rounds.
99.999% M270 because of the two gaps at the front for loading the two pods.
The artillery shell or rocket would have to have been fired before the vehicle stopped. It doesn’t directly hit the white vehicle. It could have been a targeted assassination or an (un)lucky hit.
Blew the top of his head off.
It’s strange to me that they didn’t aim for different people.
Probably along the same lines as the Austrian Rotax engines (they are plentiful, commercially available and stolen).
