The cost of Russian equipment destroyed this year is at least 8 billion US dollars.
From January 1 to October 1, 2024, the Defense Forces of Ukraine destroyed 10,373 artillery systems of the Russian invaders. This was announced by the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine on its website.
The “darkest day” for the army of the aggressor country was September 22, when, according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Ukrainian defenders destroyed 81 enemy artillery systems,” they added.
It is noted that the 1st artillery division has 18 artillery barrels, and the artillery brigade has 72 artillery installations. So, during 9 months of this year, the Defense Forces conditionally destroyed 144 enemy artillery brigades.
They added that the cost of Russian equipment destroyed this year is at least 8 billion US dollars. This is an approximate figure, which is based on information from open sources and average prices for weapons and military equipment on the world market.
“In this way, enemy self-propelled guns, howitzers and guns destroyed or disabled without the prospect of restoration are perhaps the most expensive scrap metal in the world. Russia’s expenses for war, the occupation of foreign land, and the killing of Ukrainians could be directed to solving internal social issues. For $8 billion In the United States, for example, an aggressor could build 13 modern sports arenas or 18 healthcare facilities equipped with the best samples of medical and diagnostic equipment,” the Ministry of Defense added.
The war in Ukraine is the loss of the Russian Federation
Over the past day, the total combat losses of the Russian occupiers have approximately amounted to 1,210 people, and since the beginning of the full-scale invasion – about 671,400. This was reported by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Rushistes don’t care. As long as they can sell their oil to the two sh!tholes of the planet, india and china, they can make billions indefinitely. They should lose 1 billion worth of equipment each day to feel the losses
Could be accomplished if the West had real leaders in place, instead of all those pathetic pussies.
