He is a good “story teller” alright. Except his stories aren’t true. The Russians are killing Ukrainians at a rate of 10-1 and the Ukrainians have taken somewhere in the realm of 2 million total casualties. The American Joint Chiefs of Staff document says that 176,000 Ukrainians have been killed and they are taking 10-1 the deaths of the Russians and that they have 6 non fatal casualties for every dead.
9:10 - "we've recently seen some T-72s in Ukraine fitted with what's colloquially been called cope cages" I just love how cope cage has become accepted terminology.

A low-quality study based on NAFO misinformation. But he could have analyzed what is available to a tank museum. For example, conclude that Soviet 9M117 "Bastion" missiles fired from T-55, T-62 or BMP-3 can hit even the latest Western tanks, including M1A2 Abrams, from ranges twice as long as their range, which means they remain out of range. One such missile may not destroy an Abrams and will be neutralized by active or explosive armor, but a second, third... a tenth is unlikely. Therefore, thousands of such missiles and their newer modifications are eagerly waiting for the Abrams to practice shooting at it.

Being a Russo-Ukrainian, I cannot tell you how thankful I am, and grateful, that you kept this analysis apolitical. Most Westerners are not prepared to accept the frames of reference that us Slavs live within, thus fail in their analyses to do their own intelligence any form of justice whilst insulting the vast majority of us. The diligence and thoughtfulness shown on this channel is what makes Western sources, and indeed any source that follows such a methodology, as great as they are, for there are many Western sources that revile the idea of not making their own ill-informed political opinions known to all. Phenomenal work Mr. Copson. Excellent pronunciation of Russian as well, top class for someone who does not speak the language.

Were the tactics used early on really the same as soviet WW2 tactics? Correct me if I'm wrong or feel free to elaborate, but In WW2, they'd have multiple waves, each with corresponding support elements in the air and on track, with the objective of pushing forward until they were at the edge of stalling, and then, very importantly, transition into creating and holding a beachhead for the next group that was just behind. Thus always preparing the way for the continued assault of fresh and supplied units. I might be wrong, but to me the tactics used in Feb 22 seemed to have degenerated rather than carried over from WW2, as when the front units were halted there was no second fresh wave just behind them to carry on the attack with fresh supplies

Nice recap and analysis of the year of fighting in the Ukraine.
Cope cages were seen from the start of the war. They were often "unofficial" additions by the crew hoping to protect from top attack missiles. But they were ineffective for that. On the other hand, as the war progressed, and drones dropping "presents" into open hatches the idea of cope cages on top started to make sense. So, the concept of "cope cages" has evolved during the arc of the war. From a joke to useful. But useful for a totally different threat than envisioned at the start of the war. At the start they were intended to deflect very old anti-tank weapons that were not being used, and in theory against modern weapons that the cages were totally inappropriate for. Now, a year later they can use cages to deflect grenades/bombs dropped from drones into open hatches and to protect from kamikaze drones trying to fly into those hatches too.
Bravo! Nice job. Interesting and informative
Very interesting and informative. Good job!
As mentioned in the video, mission-based tactics only work if the junior officers and NCOs are highly trained and competent. If not, it's a recipe for utter chaos and disaster. This was probably THE major advantage for the Wehrmacht - an extremely competent officer and NCO corps - well trained in combined warfare and mission-based tactics. Even privates were expected to show personal initiative.

@@p_serdiuk drones sit too high for trophy. A system is needed to detect them way before they get near to the general vicinity of the tank so they can be eliminated before they get a chance to drop a mortar, or take away the ability to keep them spotted for artillery etc.
Excellent video. Thank you.
