Ukraine's armed forces have captured a "mysterious container" that could be part of one of Russia's most advanced electronic warfare (EW) systems currently in service, according to a Twitter account that monitors weapons seized or destroyed during the conflict.

Twitter user @UAWeapons shared photos of a container and a military truck, identifying the first as likely to be the command post of a 1RL257 Krasukha-4 mobile EW system.

EW systems, first developed by Britain during the World War II, are considered among the most important fighting elements in modern warfare, although they often don't get the same media attention as heavy artillery.

Perhaps the Ruskies, being leaders in the ecology movement, put all their trash in containers and haul it off so the environment isn't damaged by tin cans and such!
