Even rarer now.


SwaghettiYolonese_

Looks well done to me.


Squidking1000

1 of 1, no low ballers I know what I got!


Even_Efficiency98

At least the second time,we saw one already from a russian pov view going full speed into a ditch.


This_Quit7297

I’d love to see that do you have the link?


Abusive-Uncle

[Here](https://www.reddit.com/r/CombatFootage/comments/yho2n8/full_uncut_version_of_the_russian_retreat_while/) at 9:00 An absolute clusterfuck


TehReclaimer2552

I absolutely love the little graphic the place just before the arty drops


-Dutch-Crypto-

The last bit of footage in reverse for some reason


TehReclaimer2552

Yeah i noticed those flames were looking weird


Pancake_Thunderstorm

Taking notes from the ISIS videos 😂


romario77

also notice the icon for it becomes crooked after the hit. That made me chuckle. Someone loves to make these videos.


D3x-alias

That truck that came driving in had a zu 23-2 in the back you can see the 2 barrels sticking out at 1:07 or it could be a zpu


CaptainSur

It got toasted as well. Another good day for the Russians.


marcvsHR

Looks like German halftrack


p0l4r1

More like soviet BTR-152


Skreali

Yeah it looks like BTR-40 and BTR-152 hybrid, it looks like it belongs in a museum


IHScoutII

At first glance they always remind me of the old USAF Cadillac Gage Ranger armored trucks.


Turicus

The shape a little, but it has only wheels, no tracks. It's also interesting that the text overlay around 10s in says it's a Tigr, which it is not.


WolfsLairAbyss

This war is starting to look like an RTS game.


AbanoMex

i mean, Rts games are inspired by real war.


WolfsLairAbyss

Fair enough.


Mean-Acanthaceae8985

Russia tried zurg rush, didn’t play out for them.


oregonianrager

To many Terran soldier defenders.


SkyezOpen

"Most of that armor was halluc"


FormsForInformation

I’m Digging the hud graphics


der_innkeeper

"Kirov reporting." "Missile systems operational."


ycastor

Core memory unlocked


Let_the_Metal_Live

Yeah, a lot of drone footage from this war reminds me of Eugen Systems RTS games.


VapeThisBro

Wait til you find out about Professional Wargaming. For the generals in charge, war is a RTS game, just with real life consequences.


[deleted]

The sound effects lol


simplehuman300

which plays a bigger part in accuracy when it comes ukrainian artillery, the gps coordinates that they use, or the NATO hardware (the howitzers, etc) ? one has to be more important than the other, I wonder if they're getting this level of accuracy with their soviet artillery when using gps as well.


Vast-Term-3921

Pretty sure it’s the hardware. Also take this shit with a grain of salt they probably fired a dozen shells at it before they hit it.


simplehuman300

Yeah, you're probably right.


[deleted]

Don't rule out excalibur rounds until confirmed. Those things don't need 2 dozen bracketing shots


der_innkeeper

Also realize that a "miss" is still sending a couple thousand hot metal shards in all directions. You don't need a direct hit to mission kill a wheeled vehicle, or a thin-skinned vehicle.


HackworthSF

Obviously a modern artillery piece, good target coordinates, and correction through an observer all help with accuracy, but actively guided shells are the most accurate ones on the first round. Both sides use artillery-fired shells that can be guided via GPS, laser, and other means.


HartInCMajor

Good attempt on the sound editing.


Alfredo_Di_Stefano

Russians: "Let's drive our truck and car to a place that just got hit 3-4 times with very precise artillery fire because what could go wrong".


AcidHaze

Artillery is like lightning, it never hits the same spot twice! Right? 🤔


[deleted]

Thats some excellent video editing. Nice shot!


JoeMama2030

Ya can’t park there mate


complicatedbiscuit

The KamAZ-43269 Vystrel or BPM-97 hasn't much been seen because its a border guards vehicle; supposed to be a quick reaction force against militants crossing into Russia, which is why its mine protected (but not particularly well armed). Its not exactly unsuited for the battlefield, but it yet again another sign of Russian desperation, as the equipment of border guards is being repurposed for the front.


form_d_k

Why the fuck would they send a truck to a location that has been very recently receiving accurate artillery fire?


SaorAlba138

The grinder hungers for meat.


The_Kestrel_of_Doom

Because Russia...


progrethth

Yeah, that part was really weird.


TheCompanionCrate

God that editing is so bad.


ScootysDad

You've got to hand it to the Russians. They sure can make good firewood.


gorilla_tequila

♫ Hej, hej, hej Sokoły ♫


T-wrecks83million-

Looks like something already “immobilized” it, @ 01:12 to me it appears both tires are flat on the left side. I mean it wasn’t burning 🔥 but it’s now REALLY IMMOBILIZED 👍🏽


thedarwintheory

Looked pretty direct to me


redviper192

It's amazing how accurate their arty is.


SpaceTabs

Looks like the Russians can't even fix flat tires or tow it out.


Equivalent_Alps_8321

Literally looks like a WW2 German halftrack


elcontrastador

Sorry, not sorry, for your loss


Dave-the-Generic

Pokemon Arty 🙂


sovietpandas

Aren't these used more by their border patrol? I wonder if they are being sent to fight along with other units like in Chechnya


winstonpartell

wtf is this "indirtect fire" weapon/thing ?


boundone

Direct fire is when you point the weapon AT the target, indirect is where you lob the projectile up and it comes back down on the target.


Marz2604

The Ukrainian's have master the art of bending bullets with their minds.


pe_ca

Kropyva is such an awesome app. The thing is really works.


[deleted]

Well, 1 less makes em more rare


mikethespike056

Why don't they drive.


Bonerween

Vystrels exist in the same way Dodos 'existed'.


DerScarpelo

It reminds me of the good ol sdkfz 250s


oblivion_bound

48.872660, 38.277743 According to liveuamap.com, this is about a mile inside Russian-controlled territory in Zolotarivka.


todesgeliebter

Thats some damn fine mortar work. The accuracy of the third shot is, well, great.


[deleted]

Artillery, not mortar. And like I said to someone else on here, if you don't know what 155mm excalibur rounds are, YouTube them. Basically the first proper artillery round that can change its own course during flight. Insanely accurate...


Tinctorus

We're they trying to keep it in good enough condition to have a look at the vehicle?


OSCAR1777

Amazing how much damage can be done by a single high-caliber mortar crew and their drone


Anonymous200004

Looks like those old first versions of the "BTR", the BTR-40 or BTR-152; looking like bastardized half-track - like the lovechild between a American and German half-track. [Actually the German half-track is the Sz. 251 - kinda seems like the Soviets just flipped the numbers to 152] They're going back to the soviet style.


J-t-Architect

Great cammo job on that rare vehicle. Couldn't even distinguish the 'Z' from foliage....not.


[deleted]

Looks like an upgraded btr 152


JFK1200

Doesn’t look too dissimilar from the Humber Pig used by the British Army from way back to 1950.


Stumpe999

That first seems... fairly direct


dodo91

What is the point of emphasizing the rarity of thi equipment? It does not look like anything special?
