Recently, the war between Russia and Ukraine continues, and judging from the current situation, the Russian side seems to have a certain advantage on the battlefield. In Avadika, Russia used aerial bombs and long-range rocket artillery, especially the Russian army's Tornado rocket launcher, which carried out all-round carpet bombing of Ukrainian targets in this area, and this round of bombing has also achieved great results, effectively occupying several strategic locations.
Russian commandos have now broken through the Promka industrial complex, and this is the first time that the Russian army has successfully broken through this industrial complex since the start of the war in eastern Ukraine in 2014. The breakthrough took the Russians a week of combat time, and their next target was the Vinogradniki quarry and farm.
Of course, in the face of the fierce offensive of the Russian army, the Ukrainian side is not sitting still, and they have also used a series of advanced weapons in their hands to launch a certain degree of counterattack against the Russian army. The Russian army will use rocket artillery to suppress the positions of the Ukrainian army during the battle, and the Ukrainian side will take the opportunity to send a reconnaissance drone to reconnoiter targets in the rear of the Russian army.
As soon as the Russian rocket artillery fires, the Ukrainian army's reconnaissance drones will be able to immediately use the infrared system to locate the Russian army's rocket artillery. Of course, the Ukrainian side will not rush to attack, they will send a second drone to track the Russian rocket artillery, and will not attack until the supply base of the Russian rocket artillery is discovered.
At present, the Russian army has discovered this problem and has developed a special countermeasure plan for it. The electronic warfare units deployed by the Russian army on the front line began to work, and they constantly sent electronic jamming signals to the battlefield to shield the connection between Ukrainian drones and satellites, so that Ukrainian drones crashed because they could not receive the signal. Since Ukraine's reconnaissance drones cannot be effectively used, the Russian army's rocket artillery base will not be attacked by the Ukrainian army's Hippocampus rocket artillery, and the Russian army has effectively avoided the loss of troops.
At the same time, Russia has an advantage in artillery fire in the front-line zone. According to the statistics of the French media, the artillery superiority of the Russian army on the front line is at least 6 to 8 times that of Ukraine. In other words, once the Ukrainian side fires a shell at a Russian target, it will be hit back by 6 to 8 shells from the Russian army, and the density of such firepower is very amazing. And now the Russian army has chosen this time point for counterattack is also very good, because it is the autumn period between Russia and Ukraine, a large number of roads are muddy, and it is impossible to effectively pass armored vehicles, and the Ukrainian army cannot obtain sufficient combat materials, which is an excellent offensive opportunity for the Russian army.
Russia and Ukraine are currently fighting fiercely on the periphery of the Avadiivka coking plant, which has been transformed into a huge fortress by Ukraine, with numerous internal buildings and complex underpasses. The Ukrainian army is currently surrounding several core positions of this factory to resist the attacking Russian army, and this complex factory has indeed brought huge losses to the Russian army. Since the Russian army launched its general offensive in October this year, they have lost more than 600 armored vehicles in this area, but at the same time, they have also achieved two copies of this area, cutting off the supply routes of the Ukrainian army in the encirclement.
Now in its 20th month of fighting between Russia and Ukraine, both sides have paid a huge price in this long war, and NATO, which has been supporting Ukraine behind it, is now facing the problem of its ammunition depot being largely emptied for Ukraine. Senior NATO officials have publicly called for the need for a stronger military-industrial complex to fill the void in its ammunition depots. But no matter how this war continues, in fact, both sides have deviated from their original strategic goals, and now, no matter which side they are, they will not give up easily.
Take Russia as an example, the current combat scope of the Russian army is also in the four states participating in the referendum to carry out attrition operations, and as time goes by, Russia's combat scope is getting smaller and smaller, and the fighting between the two sides has also entered a stalemate. Whoever attacks faster will lose more. In other words, the current battle between the two sides is a state of eliminating the strengths of one and the other, and no one can defeat the other, and the final decision is the competition of endurance.
