The terrorist country Russia began to lose equipment on the battlefield faster. Over the entire period of a full-scale war, the ratio of losses of tanks to combat armored vehicles fluctuated between 1.47-2.17, but in March 2024 it increased to 3.87 and 6.80 over the last 10 days.
OSINT analyst Richard Vereker, who tracks the losses of Russian military equipment, drew attention to this on the social network X. He noted that the “anomaly” is getting worse.
“Russia has been losing tanks and infantry fighting vehicles every month since the start of the war. More infantry fighting vehicles than tanks, with an average of 1.87 infantry fighting vehicles per tank. Typically, the ratio was quite close to the average, reaching 2.17 in May 2022, and a minimum of 1.47 – in March 2023. However, in March 2024, it is much higher – 3.87, and even higher than 6.80 in the last 10 days,” Vereker noted.
The analyst suggested the reasons for the acceleration of Russian losses.
“I don’t know the reason, perhaps it has to do with tactics or the availability of vehicles, or perhaps the Russian elections are a factor, but it is happening and seems to be accelerating over the course of the month,” the investigator stated.
He added that he regularly checks the indicators, and they grow every time. That is, for every destroyed tank in Russia there are already 10 lost armored fighting vehicles (infantry fighting vehicles, armored personnel carriers and other armored vehicles designed for protected movement of infantry).
As OBOZ.UA reported:
– Ukrainian border guards in the Kharkov direction conducted experiments on Russian invaders . Based on the results of the experiment, the fighters found that out of six invaders hidden in a hole, on average, one remains.
– British intelligence reported that the pace of the offensive of the Russian occupation forces in Ukraine has decreased in recent weeks. This is partly due to significant enemy losses in the Avdeevka area of the Donetsk region.

I’m fine with that!
Many factors involved in this:
– Firstly and foremost, Putin ordered a full offensive, without any regard for lifes or equipment, to exploit the “window of opportunity” opened by the ammunition shortage of the AFU.
– That equipment losses couldn’t be adequately compensated, but an increasing share of rusty mothballed tanks, guns, and APCs were given to units instead must have consequences.
– That desperate commanders, short on operational tanks and APCs, equppied assault troops with quads and golf carts certainly increased losses, too.
– With this huge bloodtoll, there’s less experienced soldiers every day. Hastily trained mobbiks have a lower life expectancy at the frontline.
All in all, the rise ain’t a surprise at all, but the unavoidable result of these factors. This shows that RuSSia can’t win this war of artrition!
🤨👎
There will never be anything else but out of the ordinary high losses for the cockroach army, no matter what they try. It’s because their experienced soldiers are either eaten by stray dogs already, or are crawling around in mafia land as invalids, begging for a few kopecs. And, the shithole has only corrupt potato generals as leaders and cocksuckers in the lower ranked officer corps, neither of which would ever qualify being officers in a real army.
