The BREM-1 tank evacuator was created on the basis of the T-72 and was put into service in 1975 and is intended primarily for the evacuation of T-72, T-80 and T-90 tanks. To lift cargo, the BREM-1 is equipped with a swivel crane with a lifting capacity of up to 12 tons. The machine transports various equipment for repair, one of them is an ESA-1 electric welding machine. BREM-1 is armed for self-defense with a NSVT heavy machine gun located on a turret above the commander's hatch, and thermal smoke equipment is an additional means of protection. The 840-horsepower V-84MS engine allows the BREM-1 to reach speeds of up to 60 km / h on the highway. When towing a T-72 tank, the speed on a dirt road does not exceed 10-15 km/h. Currently, there is a modernized version of the BREM-1M, it is being built on the basis of the T-90 tank.

You are wrong, good sir. They did not lose 72 in a single day. They lost 72 in a SINGLE battle. Their total loses for that day was around 100.

Serial production of the BM-30-D "Spokes" remote-controlled uninhabited combat module for the KamAZ-43269 "Shot" armored car has begun in Russia. The Spica combat module is equipped with a 30 mm 2A42 automatic cannon, a 7.62 mm PKTM machine gun, as well as an AG-30 automatic grenade launcher. The module has a modern sight with television and thermal imaging channels and a laser rangefinder. A lightweight and simplified version of this module without the AG-30 grenade launcher is also installed on the Typhoon Airborne armored car. The Spica combat module will also be installed on other Russian armored vehicles and armored personnel carriers.

The Terminator tank support combat vehicle is designed to operate as part of tank units in order to defeat anti-tank weapons and enemy manpower. The armament of the Terminator BMPT is two 30 mm 2A42 automatic cannons, a 7.62 mm tank machine gun, automatic grenade launchers AG-17D and ATGM Kornet. In terms of protection, the Terminator can be compared with the T-90 tank, and in some ways it surpasses it. For example, it is equipped with a dynamic protection system "Relict". The BMPT is protected from enemy anti-tank melee weapons within 360 degrees. The machine was put into service in 2018.

The work of the 2S5 self-propelled gun "Hyacinth-S" combat crew in Ukraine was shown by the Russian Defense Ministry. The Russian self-propelled gun 2S5 was adopted in 1975 and received the nickname "Genocide" for its high efficiency and reliability. Unlike other self-propelled guns, Hyacinth was not supplied to the USSR in any country in the world. To facilitate the work of the loader, the ACS is equipped with a chain sender of the projectile and charge. The ammunition of the installation is 30 shells, the rate of fire is 5-6 rounds per minute, the firing range of active-reactive projectiles is 33 km, the 2X5M modification has a firing range of 37 km and has digital guidance systems. The crew of the ACS is 5 people, the range of the installation is 500 km.

The king of Russian mortars, like many Russian artillery, is romantically named 2C4 "Tulip". The pretty name of the flower hides a monstrous power that inspires fear and respect, by the way, the shot of its 130 kilogram mine leaves a funnel in the ground with a diameter of 10 and a depth of almost 6 meters. Now there are no analogues of the Russian "Tulip": it significantly surpasses conventional artillery and is a record holder. 2C4 "Tulip" is intended primarily for the destruction of bunkers and fortified positions, of which a huge number has been created by the Ukrainian army in the Donbas. The mortar began to enter the army in 1972 and now Russia has 390 pieces in storage, 40 of them are actively used. Due to the large weight of the mines, the mortar barrel is lowered to charge and the combat crew of the machine, consisting of 11 people, manually with the help of a lifting mechanism, put the mine from the trolley on the tray and send it into the barrel. The rate of fire of the mortar is 1 shot per minute, the range is 9.5 km with conventional mines and 19 active-reactive. For protection, the mortar is equipped with a 7.62 mm PKT machine gun. The "Tulip" shot is fired by the gunner using a special remote control. The transported ammunition of the "Tulip" is 20 high-explosive artillery mines, or 10 active-reactive. The successful baptism of fire "Tulip" took place in Afghanistan and Chechnya. The 2C4 self-propelled gun weighing 27 tons is equipped with a diesel engine with a capacity of more than 500 hp and can use kerosene as fuel, the speed of movement on the highway is up to 60 km / h.

I wanna see the accuracy of this thing, you always show the moment of shooting but you rarely show the moment of hitting the target.

The Russian Ministry of Defense showed the work of TOS-1A "Solntsepyok" in Ukraine.
The TOS-1A heavy flamethrower system is rightfully considered one of the deadliest weapons of the Russian army. The weapon is truly terrible as 24 rockets with a caliber of 220 mm. literally burn everything around. The thermobaric mixture of projectiles creates a cloud of explosive mixture and then undermines it. After detonation, the pressure rises sharply and then drops, the pressure drop leads to a guaranteed death of the enemy over an area of up to 40,000 square meters. TOS-1A "Sun" is a 2001 modification of the TOS-1 "Pinocchio" system developed back in 1980. The firing range of the installation is small, only 6 km, so the tactics of use, quick access to positions, strike and retreat from the front line. The shooting accuracy of "Solntsepek" is up to 10 meters. Readiness to open fire on a target from the moment the vehicle stops - 90 seconds. The crew of the car consists of three people. The installation was created on the basis of the T-72A tank and is equipped with a V-84MS diesel engine with an 840 horsepower. With. The speed on the highway is 60 km / h, the range is 550 km. In March 2020, Russia introduced a new missile for the TOS-1A with a range of 10 km.

An artillery system that gets destroyed by enemy counter battery fire or e.g. via an airstrike is nothing unusual and has no bearing towards the effectiveness of e.g. a TOS-1A as such - which is indeed a fearsome and highly effective weapon system.

In that conjunction I keep wondering that the RF are not making use of their thermobaric bomb arsenal, via aircraft.
Just as the USA till recently, the Soviet Union also deployed them in Afghanistan with devastating results.

Russians doesn't have PGMs thats why their jets doesn't even have pods.

This war just showed that Russians were not a fearsome enemy against the NATO.

3-4 squadrons of Nato aircraft can cripple their entire Air force easily.

Would you have a source for that claim?
e.g. Kh-59MK2 multi-purpose missile!! Even China has a couple of 100's of them in it's inventory - purchased from Russia
And one doesn't need PGM to drop a thermobaric bomb from an aircraft

The Russian Ministry of Defense showed the combat work of the calculation of the 220-mm MLRS "Hurricane" in Ukraine, the calculation of the installation receives target designation from the UAV "Orlan-10". The video shows the 9K57 Uragan version mounted on the ZIL-135LM chassis and put into service in 1975. In terms of the main characteristics of the Uragan MLRS, it significantly surpassed the B-21 Grad MLRS, the area of destruction increased 10 times and amounted to 42 hectares. The main task of the Uragan MLRS is to defeat the enemy at distances from 10 to 35 km; when firing at short distances, a brake ring is put on the head of the missiles. For the first time, the installation underwent a baptism of fire in Afghanistan, thanks to it the troops were successfully withdrawn, the MLRS carried out strikes on the Mujahideen concentration areas for a day, transport-loading vehicles brought ammunition without stopping. The vehicle develops a maximum speed of 70 km/h and has a very high cross-country ability, overcoming fords 1.2 m deep. The number of shells in a salvo of one combat vehicle: 16, salvo time - 20 seconds. The calculation of the combat vehicle - 4 people.

The Russian Defense Ministry showed footage of the combat duty of the crew of the Nebo-SV radar and the combat work of the Buk-M3 air defense system. The calculation of the 1L13 "Sky-SV" radar station searches and detects targets and determines their nationality by sending a "Friend or Foe" request. Based on the results of the target's response, the radar crew makes a decision to destroy the target and transmits the data to the crew of the Buk-M3 air defense system. The detection range of fighter-type targets at high altitudes reaches 380 km, at low altitudes up to 65 km. The Russian radar "Nebo-SV" was put into service in 1986.
The station "Nebo-SV" has become the main means of reconnaissance of an air enemy in air defense, forming a duty radar field in the operational link of military air defense. The high combat and operational characteristics of this station have been repeatedly confirmed in various exercises and during combat duty by air defense formations. The system is also in service with Iran.
