Interim results of the operation
"Summer Dismemberment"....

At the beginning of June, the liberation
operation of the Ukrainian forces started,

which had no definite name and the plan of
which, at first, was not clear until the end.

A rapid breakthrough? A diversionary strike
with concentration on another direction, or?...

June itself showed that in addition to the task
of pushing the supply strip with small forces,

an important point in the idea was the
exhaustion and exsanguination of the

enemy. And the record June in a number of
losses was a direct confirmation of this.

But, a month and a half has
passed and what can be summarized?

For a month and a half of active fighting, the
Russian occupants lost almost 29,000 fighters. At

the same time, the June figure of 20,500 is the
fourth for the entire period of full-scale war.

The figures were higher only
for January-February and March,

when manic storms of Bakhmut were
carried out by crowds of convicts.

298 tanks were destroyed . Not the highest figure,
which is explained by the fact that tanks are now

mostly on the second line of defense, and in
the supply line there are not so many of them

to set records of burning. On the other hand,
the result as for the average is quite decent.

In a month and a half Russia lost
541 Armored fighting vehicles.

Some may say that it is not much, because in March
2022 the occupants lost 889 units, but that was

in March 2022. Now the Russians have a serious
problem with compensation of losses, in particular

Armored fighting vehicles, as well as a shortage
of medium and light armored vehicles in the units.

Artillery. The absolute record of destroyed
Russian artillery in June and the stable

dynamics of destroyed barrels in July
showed a staggering total of 989 pieces !

Similarly, and MLRS - 105 units.

At the same time records in these
categories in July are not excluded!

I have explained why this happens more than once,

but the main message is the deterioration
of the quality of Russian artillery,

counter-battery warfare and the use of
MLRS extremely close to the battle line,

which makes them a target not only for Ukrainian
artillery, but also for various kinds of drones.

The number of air defense systems destroyed
in a month and a half was 92. This is the

highest rate of air defense destruction,
both in terms of numbers and dynamics.

But most importantly, the air defense
assets are among the most problematic

to compensate, which undermines the
effectiveness of the entire system.

Statistics on aircraft (2) and attack
helicopters (12) are not very encouraging,

which is understandable. The enemy mainly
uses airplanes for dropping corrective bombs

outside the range of Ukrainian air defense
and operating mobile groups with MANPADS.

And since the June downfall of helicopters,
they have been used more cautiously.

Drones - 676. It should be understood that this
is a total of all drones that are shot down,

starting from Shahed-136 kamikaze drones and
ending with Orlan-10 reconnaissance drones.

The figure is high, but it includes
drones shot down in the rear.

Vehicles - 797. The activation of enemy logistics
has led to an increase in vehicular casualties.

Especially now they are trying to switch to
warehouses on wheels, after regular destruction of

ammunition depots. The record of March 2022 cannot
be surpassed yet, but everything is still ahead.

The high rate of losses of
special vehicles is 206,

which is also explained by the need to
use them as part of the intensification

of hostilities and their appearance
in extreme areas of the battle line.

Thus, we see a picture of steadily and
systematically increasing losses of the

occupants, in countering not even the main
strike group of the Ukrainian defense forces.

That is, the essence is what I was talking
about at the very beginning - the exhaustion

and exsanguination of the
enemy with smaller forces.

And tell me, what else to call this operation,
if not "Summer Dismemberment" of the second army

in the world by the fifteenth army? I look
forward to your options in the comments ...
