Judging by the location of the monument in the video, the missile strike was inflicted on one of the decision-making centers - the Headquarters of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Streltska Street in Vinnitsa

Artillerymen of the group "V" with the help of UAVs discovered a column of enemy armored vehicles moving along the forest plantation and opened fire on it.

The enemy attempted to escape, but was destroyed by accurate fire.

Well, the core of the usage of HIMARS or MLRS system like that is to disrupt your enemy logistic.

First of all, there are virtually no way you can stop Russian from launching Artillery Attacks, as long as they have rounds and tube, they will continue to be doing so, the question now become how you can mitigate such attacks.

Now, you can do it in one of the two ways, target the main supply effort (or Main Line of Communication)or disrupt their region supply depots (The one that serve the immediate area). Both are each of their own. As I mentioned before, if this was me, and when I get my hands on MLRS like M270 or HIMARS, I will go after their Main Line of Communication (Kupiansk) , because you disrupt the normal flow of supplies, it will not stop the onslaught for now, since the "Ready to Use" stuff are already distributed, but it will hamper the supply effort, effectively your line of supply will be interrupted and will have a hard time filtering supply. That's very simple, you disrupt the supply coming from Russia, you increasingly lower the amount that supply get to the front.

True, I mentioned targeting trains and the train stations before they start distributing to all parts of the regions. Targeting the main artery. Still need ATACMS as well to target Sevastopol and other supply depots that's a little further beyond the frontlines.

What the Ukrainian is doing is the other way, they are targeting the regional depots. Which make immediate disruption to the Russian supplies in the frontline, it basically lower the Russian warfighting capability by taking their supply out. This is harder task, may not be as useful (because there will be multiple supply dump serving the same area and you need to hit them all) but this will stop the immediate flow of supply.

As for why the Ukrainian do what they did, my educated guess is that they dont have enough HIMARS or M270s to make a large scale interruption that would work in Kupiansk. Which is why they are doing these hit and run type tactics.

The Russian is in strategic pause at the moment, which mean they are regrouping, and intelligence estimate they are probably 40-50% understrength, and in military term, they are culminated, unless the Russian can raise another 30-40 Full size BTG, they probably aren't going to move anywhere inland. Even after R&R, what I heard is they manage to raise 10 BTG of "volunteer" This is not going to be enough for the push.

Figure they would still continue using artillery and missile attacks while they are on a pause with the rest of the troops and mechanized units because not sure why they would pause firing artillery unless it was disrupted so they just firing what they have now but with more missiles instead.

Russias targeting capabilities are either awful or their intentionally targeting Ukrainian civilians. Either way, Russia is an incompetent terrorist Nazi state

You're a joke and fake...I think enough people see that already. But keep peddling your BS.

Exactly how is he a joke for pointing out facts?

 

[Dalit]

The only jokes here are you and the other Russian Nazi bootlickers. Ukraine has lost only a handful at most of M777s. They've proven to be an excellent addition to Ukraines forces. The US just announced another 150K+ 155mm shells for Ukraine. You don't send that amount if those systems are ineffective.

You are on the losing side bud. The Russians are advancing as we speak. No amount of shells can stop Russian gains.

 

[gambit]

...it's ironic that the Ukrainians are the ones suffering the most from the attrition warfare, not the Russians, despite their very heavy losses.

The initial expectation was that the Russian military WOULD NOT incur heavy losses. Then it was downgraded to SHOULD NOT suffer heavy losses. Now it is downgraded more to WILL suffer heavy losses. The Russian military is suffering heavy losses from and adversary that is smaller and is literally begging for help. Against US/NATO? It will be Desert Storm redux.

Russia has gained control over large swaths of land. Russia is entering more regions as we speak. The losses you talk about are irrelivant in such a context.

US/NATO are only good at initiating regime changes in third world nations. When it comes to real adversaries US/NATO can only provide light weaponry and watch from a safe distance.

Exactly how is he a joke for pointing out facts?

He can't even identify an M777, or doesn't like to admit when evidence clearly shows one being destroyed, while most other military people clearly can. He claims to have "served" in Ukraine and "field stripped" an M777. You then be the judge whether he is a fake and a joker. See his posting history, he makes up all sorts of crap, even his own identity.

Expectations by whom? If the Taliban and the Iraqis had the same degree of support and equipment as the Ukrainians do, the US would have suffered the same fate as the Russians are suffering now. You also seem to be blind to the losses the US/NATO would suffer if they were to go up against an even bearable peer. You haven't fought a peer since WWII.

The US/NATO have been occupying toothless nations over the years. The real test was to fight against a worthy opponent like Russia, but they backed off. Russia won't tolerate BS in its immediate surrounding. Russia means business and throughout this military campaign we have seen exactly that.

The US/NATO are all talk and no trousers, bunch of Hollywood Rambo wannabes who are brave fighting against third world tin pot dictatorships and peasant goat herders, and even then they manage to lose in the end.
