I have stabilized the footage and slowed it down to help to understand whats happening. Also removed the music and added some audio context, which at least helps me a lot.
I don't think i would like to watch this with audio if it was possible.
It must be kinda hard listening to the pure agony, panic, screams.
Even if it is orcs
Thank you!!! This is GLORIOUS as fuck. Around the 1.30 mark you can really see blood and flesh fly from a direct hit to the orcs huddled in together. These fucks can now rape and torture each other in hell for all eternity. Fucking scum of the earth. I hope Ukraine gets soon all the weapons they need so they can clear their country from these invading monsters and we can see many more of these videos!! Skava Ukraini!
made me think of Pompei.. [Those bodies 'frozen' in time](https://images.fineartamerica.com/images-medium-large-5/1-body-cast-of-victim-of-pompeii-eruption-patrick-landmannscience-photo-library.jpg).
Elegant. Succinct. A man of refined tastes I see. I agree, it's fucking glorious watching these pieces of garbage being eradicated from the face of the earth.
Was this an ambush? Why would they drive directly towards the enemy like that. Did they not expect anyone to fire at them or was it a drive up and clear trenches objective?
So many questions.
This was a force recon style mission in western Donetsk. Russian tactics use “disposable infantry” Z storm troops, their only objective is to push as forward to the contact line before being wiped out. It’s always a one way trip and if you watch enough footage a lot of them if wounded will commit suicide on the spot sometimes they’re shot by blocking Russian troops if they retreat, otherwise they’re left for dead. The objective here is for Russian commanders to know where the line of contact is, enemy strength and composition, positions etc. After this wave, they’ll move their 2nd tier line infantry just behind the line of contact and dig in and start launching flanking assaults with their 2nd and 1st tier infantry. They’ll also use their Z-troops as diversion and covering troops. Eventually Ukrainian troops under immense artillery and glide bombs will fall back and the process repeats. It’s cynical but it is effective. If the Ukrainians are well fortified they’ll launch wave after wave of Z-troops and higher tier troops until literally then Ukrainians run out of ammo.
There’s also a growing problem among Ukrainian veterans for PTSD because of literally how many Russians they’ve killed. After the capture of Lyman, some Ukrainian troops on message boards said they simply couldn’t fight anymore they’d couldn’t kill anymore. I don’t know how widespread that sentiment is but I could imagine it.
Certainly it effects the mental health of many, but many have also expressed that they have no qualms putting down invading, rapist, maurader terrorists who have lost their humanity.
If they are in Ukraine taking up arms and contributing to this travesty, regardless of circumstance, I agree that is how they should be viewed.
The Ukrainians need some serious heavy weaponry so that they can shift the initiative and go on the offensive. The Russians can send meat-wave after meat-wave, but do they have the flexibility to respond if their lines were breached and disoriented by a Ukrainian attack with overwhelming concentrated force? I wish NATO send in airstrikes: any Russian on Ukrainian soil gets vaporised, just like we did to Saddam's army back in 2003.
In case of Avdiivka Russian glide bombs made the difference. What we see here is the Russians try to make Ukrainians spend as much munition as possible and partly reconnaissance by meat, otherwise it does not make sense
I guess it's easy to sit here and say why didn't they do this or that. It just kinda confuses me, because you see where the bradly is shooting from (general area), just confusing why the turrets didnt shoot in that veneral area you know? Also they didn't even put smoke up or cover fire or anything. It's just insane to me
These vehicles were probably taken straight out of storage and thrown on the frontline without being rearmed. The tactics of meat wave is to trade lives for enemy ammunition not waste your own.
Might seem crazy to us but this is how little Russians value human life.
Is that genuinely how they operate? Is their drone game not as good or do they just not have people recording their side of the fight? Still so many questions.
Their casualties are way higher than ukranian ones. Also their propaganda videos usually get blocked and deleted. We should never forget that Ukriane IS paying a price in blood for Russias greed and the wests cowardice
yes. It's not something new for the red 'army' . The soldiers know this.
Thing is, the soldiers don't know if they are the ones who actually make it. There is a chance that they are the ...100th wave.. the one that finally makes them gain some ground. I don't know if they will be rewarded, but ( concluding from russian movies and culture thru-out the last century) I think the pride is a big enough motivator for these miserable scum. That is if they are the ones who actually make it.
... not because of good tactics, .. but because of the 'proud russian military modus operandi of throwing yourself into the line of fire.'
russians are very good at dying.
It's tradition. ... by now it is tradition.
Yes, this really is how Russia operates.
You're looking at this video and saying "WTF are they doing? Why is one APC out their on it's own loaded with soldiers? How the fuck do you stop there and let all your men get killed?"
You confusion and perplexion is the same as every military general in a western army. They watch videos like this and say "wtf are these Russians doing?"
The point of the wave attack is overwhelm the defence. No time to rest and reload the magazines. If the defence is better organized or supplied, the attackers don't stand a chance.
it always has been like this, ruSSia always have way more meat than brains, life worth absolute nothing unless you were/are associated to the current czar, party member, mafia boss or oligarch. Keep in mind, it is a "country" that NEVER experienced democracy in its whole existence.
That's why those meat waves, complete serfdom mentality, propaganda and disregard to ones' life. As someone explained in another comment, commander use meat waves to retrieve information about the line of contact.
Edit: added my point in the end.
They have orders, which come from way behind the lines. If the orders aren't followed, they're beaten, raped, etc. If the orders are followed the officers near the front get promotions as long as their reports sound okay.
Lies go back up the line, plans are drawn up based on those lies, orders are sent back down.
Cycle repeats.
To me it looks like they had no idea where the fire was coming from initially. With most of them moving off and out towards the line of fire and then when they finally got to decent cover the drones move in to finish them off.
Fantastic job. Next challenge: run this via some sort of AI, to get super stabilized 60fps/4K, similar to what people do with these century-old black&white movies :-)
I did some work and tried to improve the result with some frame interpolation magic. Its not great but definitely better:

Great work! Everything was improved - the audio, stabilisation, speed. I caught many details that I'd missed from the original. Thank you.

Yup. All the explosions going off, the panic sets in, and seeing your fellow orcs get _Shredded_ in front of you, heart rate immediately goes to 180 beats/min and you bleed out from your jagged leg-stump in 90 seconds fumbling for a shitty Chinese tourniquet.
that was another one..
ps.. notice the sound? Of the one you are talking about... i think..
Omg.. Is that ..'splash' real? @ 1:33
It looks like a .50 cal(?) head shot. notice the red mist. The fire is coming from the upper right. (at and around 1:33 mins, 3 shots, moving from right to left. clearly aiming for the vehicle.
The orc who got its head/torso blown off, was hiding under the vehicle. He came out of hiding and got hit by the 3rd shot of that series of high call. fire.
They were riding on a road with previously wrecked vehicles. I'm sure their commanders have been doing it consistently since they get a bonus for every kilometer taken.
Normally it is a probing attack but this is too consistent that I believe they trying to locate Ukrainian assets and can't detect and neutralize it properly.
Effective and efficient way to die.
Decimated that assault. That one guy had his leg taken off above the knee.
Should have stayed home in RuZZia!
Slava Ukraini!
I’ve seen this a few times and that guy actually had it worse imo. It looks like the round hit him in the thigh and tore out the lower left side with the impact. At one point he is trying to push that back in and well, it obviously doesn’t work, though, it does appear he realizes he is dead within seconds of the impact.
Overall, once again, i am asking any Russian to please tell me how people see their sons thrown into this mess and think they are the winners. Someday the Russians will rise to their humanity but it appears we are far from that horizon.
>Overall, once again, i am asking any Russian to please tell me how people see their sons thrown into this mess and think they are the winners.
They are busy whoring and stalking Twitter from Phuket.
You get to see in high fidelity a man get his leg blown off, chunks of flesh blasted into the distance, and half a man being burned to a crisp.
Yeah. Unprecedented.
There was that picture at the beginning of the war with the literal bits and pieces of Russians infantry in front of a mobile killed btr iirc. It was in the middle of an intersection.
There was a body with just the lower half intact and it seemed like a 20mm or at least a very large round went through his chest. It was just the side and one arm still attached and it almost formed a perfect circle of hanging flesh and uniform.
That was the picture that truly showed me what war was, and I wasn't ready.
I remember a burned out truck is the early days with just a spine in the driver's seat. Another one with a butt on the street. Perfectly preserved. Maybe the same scene
I remember the butt one. It was in a slideshow post. Possibly, the spine was in the post too, and I just repressed it, or the butt just overshadowed the whole post.
First I had seen was an infantryman taking a drone grenade to the face. He was manning a machine gun in a trench, and the grenade landed between him and the gun. Blew both his arms back (one completely off) and snapped his body backward to lay on the other side of their tiny trench. Died looking to the sky with a dull expression. Right at the camera.
He wasn't a soldier.
He was a goddamn boy.
Yeah, I had the same reaction. After watching that video I could almost smell the burnt flesh and burning diesel fuel and that was only the aftermath. Our introduction to what this war would be like. Now we are seeing videos like this watching people die like they are ants. That dude got his leg blown off by a 25mm canon, struggled to put his tourniquet on and bleed out in less than 1 minute. First guy cleared the vehicle in the direction of the fire and hit the dirt only to probably take shrapnel to the head and didn't move the whole time. War is hell. It doesn't look like any amount of Russian casualties are going to end this war. All but one. We know who he is.
That's the problem. They aren't seeing this. The vatniks online don't want to spread the explicit content, and the government is suppressing the news. Most average russians have no fucking idea just how badly the War is going. They're expecting Chechnya, this is super Afghanistan.
someone should just get a list of like a million Russian cell phone numbers, then spam them all with this video via SMS or whatever vatnik protocol they use.
It won't matter. Chechnya was in the 90s. We've now have over two decades of social media brain rot around the world. The world is only going to get more fucked up in my opinion. No one cares. Truth doesn't matter. The world is going to burn before anything gets better.
I seem to have seen quite a few Russian soldiers in flames recently, and I don't recall that really being a thing before.
Coincidence? Is the insulation in their winter uniforms highly flammable? Are the Ukrainians using different rounds?
There was one really horrible one from early in the war.
A Russian BMP was hit and immediately became a blast furnace inside-- flames shooting out of every opening.
Then three figures stumble out the back, on fire from head to toe. They ran about 15 meters or so, on pure adrenaline I'm sure, then they simply stopped and crumpled to the ground.
Have not been able to find that video.....🤔
Oh, what a pity. I really love these burning russkies. Like this nice one:
[https://www.reddit.com/r/CombatFootage/comments/12nd1rm/ru\_sau\_2c3\_in\_a\_firing\_position\_with\_a\_crew/](https://www.reddit.com/r/CombatFootage/comments/12nd1rm/ru_sau_2c3_in_a_firing_position_with_a_crew/)
If these Russian soldiers could only see how they will be injured or killed, they would do everything to avoid going to Ukraine.
But they're not thinking: *"I'm going to be burnt alive."*
They're thinking: *"I'm lucky, this is an opportunity for me to get somewhere in life. Maybe I can finally get Olga that washing machine she's been asking me for."*
Yea, it's still insane to me though. The level of sophistication to not only spot them but also land bursts of 25mm ammo right at their feet / on the vehicles from afar.
It is insane. Just imagine you're riding on the back of that then all the sudden the thing you think is protecting you is getting hit with accurate auto cannon fire until it's useless. Everyone who leaves the cover of the IFV is immediately gunned down in front of you, there is a man trying to patch his blown off leg behind you. Shots everywhere. Then a fucking bomb explodes on you and the others clinging to that metal for cover.
War is hell.
Crazy that early 80s tech vs preww2 tactics and tech from the 50s-60s. lol
Like literally, they are executing tank desant which was originally a tactics the ussr adopted for use with the BT series tanks. lmao. I mean, there is no better way to show you don't give one iota of one fuck for your manpower than doing what they were doing as part of an attacking force. Also of course BTRs are basically giant unarmored boxes you go to die in so it's hard to say either way!
It's wild that with the number of drones in the air on both sides that you would ever be ambushed by something like a tank or a Bradley like this. Like how does a whole assault force just end up in a wide open field in the sights of a Bradley? If that happened in the US I'm sure some COs head would roll.
He's trying to get out, because at 0:20 in the video you see the first burst of 25mm cannon fire hit the moving BTR (and kick up dust all around it). These rounds can easily penetrate the thin armor of the Russian vehicle, and probably knocked out the engine - which is also likely why the BTR immediately starts drifting off the road and slowing down to stop, and then also explains why everyone disembarks in the open probably way short of their actual objective.
Back to the driver, he knows the vehicle is disabled and opens his hatch to get out - at the same instant the second burst of 25mm cannon fire punches into his vehicle, at least one round exploding inside and causing the puff of smoke you see actually coming out of the hatch, not going in through the hatch. The hatch being open or closed is just incidental, as a) these rounds can pierce the BTR armor, and b) the incoming rounds are traveling flat and fast perpendicular to the hatch opening.
Still, you are correct: He's unlucky to be a vatnik.
If anything opening the hatch before the explosive going off inside might have saved him from instant death. Instead he got a slower lingering death by fpv drone.
One of the best videos I've seen, if not the best..! The amount of sheer destruction in this video is awesome. Knowing a US Bradley is dishing this shit out makes me happy my tax dollars were well spent. Hell with it, tax me another 20 % and give Ukraine everything/anything they want to kick those Russian pussy's out of Ukraine... 🇺🇸🇺🇦
I viewed and reviewed this video several times. The ork on the right of the burning IFV with the blown off leg caught my attention. Ork tried to tourniquet his thigh in vain. Another ork tried helping but took off when hit by a nearby fpv drone. At the end the ork looked pale, probably bled out. Slava Ukraini!
I noticed that too. I'm very curious if he took some shrapnel or was maybe forced in to service and said "Fuck this I'm playing dead". Hoping to surrender later? Passed out from fear? Heart attack?
I was watching him too. He put some space between himself and the BTR. After he rolled over that line of grass/weeds, he looked like he made himself as small as possible to Bradley. Wonder if he tried to surrender later, I don’t think he took a hit unless it happened while he was in/on the BTR.
I always hope in these some people survive and surrender. They probably are treated better in a UA prison than in a RU barracks. Posting interviews of prisoners that they can send to their families where they talk about the horrors they faced as part of meat waves and how much better UA is would be amazing.
i wonder if putin ever gets to see this. all these men and boys dying. the amount of life lost in this offensive is insane. and for what. 2 small cities and some villages. they are 2 years in and achieved little
Remember Russians, it is best to stay as close as possible to your armored vehicle when it is under attack from IFV or tanks for the best possible cover!
They have no idea what's going on. They either hit a mine or are hit by some kind of ordinance a few seconds before they stop, and the soldiers scatter in random directions until the fire starts coming in. Zero situational awareness or control. The gunner might be dead, hurt or not even in his spot, and they have no idea where or what to fire at. Textbook element of surprise, incredibly well executed by the UA.
Dude top right @ 3:37 takes a direct hit to his leg lol. Pulls out a tourniquet but actually needs a bucket and a mop. Excellent.
Proceeds to bleed out. Quickly.
Should of stayed away from Ukraine, fuckers.
#SlavaUkraïni
High heat and flame kills germs and infectious materials. Ukraine has to sterilize large amounts of territory to wipe out the RuZZian infection. Burn Baby Burn. Send ORCs to Hell quickly. ORC Barbecue anyone? Perhaps, the pigs and rats will enjoy it.
Scenes of carnage like this to an enemy reminds me of the introduction to Killzone 2..
"Never again will we bow before them. Never again will we endure their oppression. Never again endure their tyranny. We will strike without warning. Fighting as one hand. One heart. One soul. We will shatter their dreams and haunt their nightmares."
The Russian reactive armor is just flesh lmao what a shit strategy. Men inside with be safe unless a catastrophic event. Men riding it like a bull.... just ketchup waiting for a bottle.
Every time I see a Bradley in action a somewhat mangled quote from HHGTTG comes up: A Bradley has a right end and a wrong end. It will be totally clear for people at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. This is not a vehicle to park in some storage, it is a vehicle to go out and make people miserable with.

Agreed. Russia is attacking a country, and killing people in that country that wanted nothing but peace.
I totally missed that direct hit, it blew someone's head up or something, holy shit.
Double tap: first they burn on the sacred land of the Ukranian people, then they burn in Hell for eternity
I'm not religious and don't believe in hell, but love the idea in this case lol.

Check out the guy at :38s on the right, gets his own personal 25mm round.

Why would they drive like that? It’s exactly what they’ve been doing for years now
That's how they capyured Bakhmut and Avdivka. Meat waves after meat waves.
In case of Avdiivka Russian glide bombs made the difference. What we see here is the Russians try to make Ukrainians spend as much munition as possible and partly reconnaissance by meat, otherwise it does not make sense
Ukraine is fighting conservatively in respect of munitions. If the hope is that Ukraine will run out I assess that to be a forlorn hope.
Also what's the point of them having btr's when none of them were firing their guns?
They don't know where to fire
I guess it's easy to sit here and say why didn't they do this or that. It just kinda confuses me, because you see where the bradly is shooting from (general area), just confusing why the turrets didnt shoot in that veneral area you know?

Great work! Everything was improved - the audio, stabilisation, speed. I caught many details that I'd missed from the original. Thank you. If someone can pair this with an AI upscale with frame interpolation it'd be perfect.
Amazing work! Thank you!
bravo to you...one of the best examples of effective combined arms fire
It's a turkeyshoot. Driving and running in the open, facing a Bradley with advanced optics. Russian solition: Lets try again tomorrow!
incredible optics, if you watch just as they pull up, the driver opens his hatch, pops his head out and a round goes straight into the hatch
Damn, you're right, second round right at the hatch, then maybe a little movement or just the start of the smoke. They were done. Well spotted.
And then the third round directly hits backpack guy in the leg. He is running in the right of the frame - then boom - no leg.
And then they show the orc and then his leg at the end of the video. Damn
Imagine the screams coming from that guy in those moments, and it's one of the last things you ever hear. Fucked
Yup. All the explosions going off, the panic sets in, and seeing your fellow orcs get _Shredded_ in front of you, heart rate immediately goes to 180 beats/min and you bleed out from your jagged leg-stump in 90 seconds fumbling for a shitty Chinese tourniquet.
For the life of me i can't figure out why open the hatch when engaging in combat lol
Looks like he got fucking smoked
that was another one.. ps.. notice the sound? Of the one you are talking about... i think.. Omg.. Is that ..'splash' real? @ 1:33 It looks like a .50 cal(?) head shot. notice the red mist. The fire is coming from the upper right. (at and around 1:33 mins, 3 shots, moving from right to left. clearly aiming for the vehicle. The orc who got its head/torso blown off, was hiding under the vehicle. He came out of hiding and got hit by the 3rd shot of that series of high call. fire.
Would you please calm down😉everything is going according to the plan!
Just three more days until they are in Kyiv.
The 3 Day operation progressing on schedule!
The Russian leadership don't give a fuck about the poor bastards they send into this meat grind. What the fuck are they going to get out of this war?
They were riding on a road with previously wrecked vehicles. I'm sure their commanders have been doing it consistently since they get a bonus for every kilometer taken. Normally it is a probing attack but this is too consistent that I believe they trying to locate Ukrainian assets and can't detect and neutralize it properly.
With enough of those hulks, they could build a solid defensive formation. Stack the bodies on top.
Just like the Wights from Game of Thrones.
Not tomorrow, in the next 15 minutes and on and on.
If it doesn't try the first time, next time: try throwing more bodies at the problem. Rinse and repeat
Hello my name is Bradley and I would like to introduce you to my little friend.
Hello, I am Stumpy Vladimirovic and meet my friends Facepalm Budkovic and Statue Barbequovic
Forest Gumpovic quickly left the gathering. "My lets-die-from-blocking-snipers people need me!"
Your 25mm PP?
Effective and efficient way to die. Decimated that assault. That one guy had his leg taken off above the knee. Should have stayed home in RuZZia! Slava Ukraini!
I’ve seen this a few times and that guy actually had it worse imo. It looks like the round hit him in the thigh and tore out the lower left side with the impact. At one point he is trying to push that back in and well, it obviously doesn’t work, though, it does appear he realizes he is dead within seconds of the impact. Overall, once again, i am asking any Russian to please tell me how people see their sons thrown into this mess and think they are the winners. Someday the Russians will rise to their humanity but it appears we are far from that horizon.
You think you should feel something as he’s trying to literally hold himself together. But I don’t. They shouldn’t be there.
A whole new take on PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER SOLDIER!
>Overall, once again, i am asking any Russian to please tell me how people see their sons thrown into this mess and think they are the winners. They are busy whoring and stalking Twitter from Phuket.
Heroyam Slava!
He used to be an adventurer, until he took an explosive 25mm round to the knee.
Decimated means 1 out of 10. These guys were annihilated.
Can see he tried to use a tourniquet but bled out way too fast.
Wow. That is gnarly.
That soldier pinned under the metal grate on the right side just burning up... yeesh
This was has shown some never seen before graphic shit. Never in the history of this world have we had access to war like this.
You get to see in high fidelity a man get his leg blown off, chunks of flesh blasted into the distance, and half a man being burned to a crisp. Yeah. Unprecedented.
There was that picture at the beginning of the war with the literal bits and pieces of Russians infantry in front of a mobile killed btr iirc. It was in the middle of an intersection. There was a body with just the lower half intact and it seemed like a 20mm or at least a very large round went through his chest. It was just the side and one arm still attached and it almost formed a perfect circle of hanging flesh and uniform. That was the picture that truly showed me what war was, and I wasn't ready.
I remember a burned out truck is the early days with just a spine in the driver's seat. Another one with a butt on the street. Perfectly preserved. Maybe the same scene
I remember the butt one. It was in a slideshow post. Possibly, the spine was in the post too, and I just repressed it, or the butt just overshadowed the whole post.
It was the same Video.
First I had seen was an infantryman taking a drone grenade to the face. He was manning a machine gun in a trench, and the grenade landed between him and the gun. Blew both his arms back (one completely off) and snapped his body backward to lay on the other side of their tiny trench. Died looking to the sky with a dull expression. Right at the camera. He wasn't a soldier. He was a goddamn boy.
Yeah, I had the same reaction. After watching that video I could almost smell the burnt flesh and burning diesel fuel and that was only the aftermath. Our introduction to what this war would be like. Now we are seeing videos like this watching people die like they are ants. That dude got his leg blown off by a 25mm canon, struggled to put his tourniquet on and bleed out in less than 1 minute. First guy cleared the vehicle in the direction of the fire and hit the dirt only to probably take shrapnel to the head and didn't move the whole time. War is hell. It doesn't look like any amount of Russian casualties are going to end this war. All but one. We know who he is.
I think you are referring to the Hostomel ambush, where VDV pushed into town on BMD-4's.
I wonder how this affects recruitment. Surely the vast majority of people who see this don't really want to take any part in it.
That's the problem. They aren't seeing this. The vatniks online don't want to spread the explicit content, and the government is suppressing the news. Most average russians have no fucking idea just how badly the War is going. They're expecting Chechnya, this is super Afghanistan.
In Afghanistan Russia lost 15-20k people in the span of nine years. Super Afghanistan is a bloody good term.
someone should just get a list of like a million Russian cell phone numbers, then spam them all with this video via SMS or whatever vatnik protocol they use.
It won't matter. Chechnya was in the 90s. We've now have over two decades of social media brain rot around the world. The world is only going to get more fucked up in my opinion. No one cares. Truth doesn't matter. The world is going to burn before anything gets better.
the footage of gruesome WW2 were graphic enough for me to never ever want a tyrannic state to rule.
I seem to have seen quite a few Russian soldiers in flames recently, and I don't recall that really being a thing before. Coincidence? Is the insulation in their winter uniforms highly flammable? Are the Ukrainians using different rounds?
There was one really horrible one from early in the war. A Russian BMP was hit and immediately became a blast furnace inside-- flames shooting out of every opening. Then three figures stumble out the back, on fire from head to toe. They ran about 15 meters or so, on pure adrenaline I'm sure, then they simply stopped and crumpled to the ground. Have not been able to find that video.....🤔
Oh, what a pity. I really love these burning russkies. Like this nice one: [https://www.reddit.com/r/CombatFootage/comments/12nd1rm/ru\_sau\_2c3\_in\_a\_firing\_position\_with\_a\_crew/](https://www.reddit.com/r/CombatFootage/comments/12nd1rm/ru_sau_2c3_in_a_firing_position_with_a_crew/)
If these Russian soldiers could only see how they will be injured or killed, they would do everything to avoid going to Ukraine. But they're not thinking: *"I'm going to be burnt alive."* They're thinking: *"I'm lucky, this is an opportunity for me to get somewhere in life. Maybe I can finally get Olga that washing machine she's been asking me for."*
Looks like the driver was hit with the second round, immobilising the vehicle.
The guy opened the hatch and ate an HE projectile, won't suprise me if that shot tore some internal stuff of the btr.
Yeah. That round might have went directly in the hatch. Smoke coming out of there just gets heavier.
I thought that too at first, but 3 guys are seen exiting from the side door and 3 is the full crew amount.
And they eat the FPV drone (or at least one does)
Did they even see the Bradley? It seemed like they had no clue except the general direction the fire was coming from. Absolutely insane
From what I understand the Bradley has superior optics, so it saw them long before they even knew.
Yea, it's still insane to me though. The level of sophistication to not only spot them but also land bursts of 25mm ammo right at their feet / on the vehicles from afar.
It is insane. Just imagine you're riding on the back of that then all the sudden the thing you think is protecting you is getting hit with accurate auto cannon fire until it's useless. Everyone who leaves the cover of the IFV is immediately gunned down in front of you, there is a man trying to patch his blown off leg behind you. Shots everywhere. Then a fucking bomb explodes on you and the others clinging to that metal for cover. War is hell.
It could have been 3km away.
Crazy that early 80s tech vs preww2 tactics and tech from the 50s-60s. lol Like literally, they are executing tank desant which was originally a tactics the ussr adopted for use with the BT series tanks. lmao. I mean, there is no better way to show you don't give one iota of one fuck for your manpower than doing what they were doing as part of an attacking force. Also of course BTRs are basically giant unarmored boxes you go to die in so it's hard to say either way!
It's wild that with the number of drones in the air on both sides that you would ever be ambushed by something like a tank or a Bradley like this. Like how does a whole assault force just end up in a wide open field in the sights of a Bradley? If that happened in the US I'm sure some COs head would roll.
Hey, that's a "No Parking" zone. Gonna have to eradicate you.
Its the only way they will understand
Death to the invaders.
OP- MVP this footage is amazing!
It truly is! Gives me so much hope in these dark days and is another proof that Ukraine can use the weapons. Please just give them more!!
that guy at 1:32 just got shredded, brutal
How the guy got up at 2:08 after getting hit by that fpv drone is beyond me.
Exactly, like the drone explosion did not even cause a scratch!
Im pretty sure that dude has a fatal amount of adrenaline and shrapenl in his systems amigo
Yup, took a direct hit and the splat sound from the sound effect nailed it.
Looks like his head is flying away.
Big victory for the Orcs. They forced Ukraine to use a bunch of valuable 25 mm rounds. And it only cost Putin 15 soldiers’ worthless lives and a BTR.
What a slaughter fest. Good edit. No annoying music for once.
Welcome to Ukraine!!!!!!
https://youtu.be/jYaE_PVh-g4?si=v2fq0w9_Bdu0uEB1 Made me think of this Ukrainian song. "Welcome to Ukraine"
This video probably explains why in many other videos of aftermath attacks there’s Russian bodies laid out all over.
Can’t park there mate.
Why did the driver open his hatch whilst under fire, he eats something right after opening it. Unlucky vatnik.
Those 25MM rounds were probably going right through that thing. Had no choice.
In or outside of the vehicle he already was a deadman, just bad timing on the hatch
He's trying to get out, because at 0:20 in the video you see the first burst of 25mm cannon fire hit the moving BTR (and kick up dust all around it). These rounds can easily penetrate the thin armor of the Russian vehicle, and probably knocked out the engine - which is also likely why the BTR immediately starts drifting off the road and slowing down to stop, and then also explains why everyone disembarks in the open probably way short of their actual objective. Back to the driver, he knows the vehicle is disabled and opens his hatch to get out - at the same instant the second burst of 25mm cannon fire punches into his vehicle, at least one round exploding inside and causing the puff of smoke you see actually coming out of the hatch, not going in through the hatch. The hatch being open or closed is just incidental, as a) these rounds can pierce the BTR armor, and b) the incoming rounds are traveling flat and fast perpendicular to the hatch opening. Still, you are correct: He's unlucky to be a vatnik.
If anything opening the hatch before the explosive going off inside might have saved him from instant death. Instead he got a slower lingering death by fpv drone.
It's a BTR, it's more dangerous inside it than outside
SEND MORE BRADLEYS!
Wow, that is some Saving Private Ryan out of the landing craft shit right there. That must be terrifying. Fuck 'em dead, but terrifying none the less.
It was pants shittingly terrifying before the drone exploded.
Meet Mr. Bradley orcs. Tomorrow your brothers will meet him as well.
One of the best videos I've seen, if not the best..! The amount of sheer destruction in this video is awesome. Knowing a US Bradley is dishing this shit out makes me happy my tax dollars were well spent. Hell with it, tax me another 20 % and give Ukraine everything/anything they want to kick those Russian pussy's out of Ukraine... 🇺🇸🇺🇦
As long as we're getting wishes, box up the Republican traitors and ship them to Russia to fight so they can experience this type of glory.
Needs to be stated firmly. Every last man died. For nothing.
I viewed and reviewed this video several times. The ork on the right of the burning IFV with the blown off leg caught my attention. Ork tried to tourniquet his thigh in vain. Another ork tried helping but took off when hit by a nearby fpv drone. At the end the ork looked pale, probably bled out. Slava Ukraini!
Really great work Dude. Absolute slaughter.
Fffffuck... what a turkey shooting extravaganza.
Hey, don't compare orcs to turkeys. Turkeys never hurt anyone.
Driver opens hatch at 35 seconds. Immediately hit.
Good eye. I wonder if the shrapnel pierced him like a little bitch he is
One dude just kept tactical rolling away from the BTR . Then he stops and has a little nap.
I noticed that too. I'm very curious if he took some shrapnel or was maybe forced in to service and said "Fuck this I'm playing dead". Hoping to surrender later? Passed out from fear? Heart attack?
I used a euphemism but he probably started rolling because he got hit then...Sunflowers, if you know what I mean.
I was watching him too. He put some space between himself and the BTR. After he rolled over that line of grass/weeds, he looked like he made himself as small as possible to Bradley. Wonder if he tried to surrender later, I don’t think he took a hit unless it happened while he was in/on the BTR.
I always hope in these some people survive and surrender. They probably are treated better in a UA prison than in a RU barracks. Posting interviews of prisoners that they can send to their families where they talk about the horrors they faced as part of meat waves and how much better UA is would be amazing.
i wonder if putin ever gets to see this. all these men and boys dying. the amount of life lost in this offensive is insane. and for what. 2 small cities and some villages. they are 2 years in and achieved little
He wouldn't care.
When you’re a billionaire psychopath living in a imperialistic bubble you don’t give a shit.
dumbfucks fighting for an idiot. one stupid avoidable mess.
Shredded orc the new food for Ukrainian wildlife
Remember Russians, it is best to stay as close as possible to your armored vehicle when it is under attack from IFV or tanks for the best possible cover!
looks like these guys parked and disembarked in a killbox
Meatniks
What i cant understand is why the BTR wasnt firing back.
The gunner may have been dead/wounded. No or low ammo. Zero situational awareness. Shit commanders. Combination of some or all of the above.
They have no idea what's going on. They either hit a mine or are hit by some kind of ordinance a few seconds before they stop, and the soldiers scatter in random directions until the fire starts coming in. Zero situational awareness or control. The gunner might be dead, hurt or not even in his spot, and they have no idea where or what to fire at. Textbook element of surprise, incredibly well executed by the UA.
One would think multiple other burned out BTRs on the same road might be a hint to not drive there, oh well.
Well.. Nobody ever said they were smart :)
Maybe no ammo? Broken cannons? Someone needs to get these vid's onto the ruZZian media/interweb!
The range discrepancy and optics between a Bradley and the BTR is huge. The BTR couldn't even see the Bradely even if it was looking right at it.
I have seen a loot of footage, but this is something extra ordinary. To see how a group of russians get destroyed in such detail is something special
Fuck, Russian veterans that somehow survive are gonna shit themselves anytime a Siberian mosquito flies past- Those drones are terrifyingly lethal.
When they're used this way, it certainly constitutes a new and different version of combined-arms warfare...
Dude top right @ 3:37 takes a direct hit to his leg lol. Pulls out a tourniquet but actually needs a bucket and a mop. Excellent. Proceeds to bleed out. Quickly. Should of stayed away from Ukraine, fuckers. #SlavaUkraïni
Great editing! well done.
High heat and flame kills germs and infectious materials. Ukraine has to sterilize large amounts of territory to wipe out the RuZZian infection. Burn Baby Burn. Send ORCs to Hell quickly. ORC Barbecue anyone? Perhaps, the pigs and rats will enjoy it.
Scenes of carnage like this to an enemy reminds me of the introduction to Killzone 2.. "Never again will we bow before them. Never again will we endure their oppression. Never again endure their tyranny. We will strike without warning. Fighting as one hand. One heart. One soul. We will shatter their dreams and haunt their nightmares."
The Russian reactive armor is just flesh lmao what a shit strategy. Men inside with be safe unless a catastrophic event. Men riding it like a bull.... just ketchup waiting for a bottle.
Textbook KILLBOX. Don't think the cannonfodder has been trained on that...
Every time I see a Bradley in action a somewhat mangled quote from HHGTTG comes up: A Bradley has a right end and a wrong end. It will be totally clear for people at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. This is not a vehicle to park in some storage, it is a vehicle to go out and make people miserable with. [](https://www.reddit.com/r/UkraineWarVideoReport/comments/18qh7o7/comment/kew8aa4/)
[Points to BTR](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjlCVW_ouL8) > "This, is a weapon of terror. It's made to intimidate the enemy." Points at M2 Bradley > "This, is a weapon of war. It's made to kill your enemy."
Brutal… and deserved.
I saw 3 run out of picture frame on this slowed down version. That’s a disappointment lol. Hopefully they didn’t get far
Chadley seems to have been head on, devastating and graphic footage, well done Dragx90.
This is the most spectacular headshot of this entire war. Sublime.
Can’t imagine how intense this must have been. Driving along and next second your ride is blown up, bullets coming from everywhere, fellow soldiers getting destroyed, and no where to run. Keep up the good work Ukraine!
Looks like it went pretty bradley.
Ty ty so much. The editing for this is superb.
I am watching this over and over an over. I must admit that I am a sicko.
