T-80s are actually based on the slightly more advanced T-64, instead of the disposable T-72.  Its decent for what it does but still has that fatal Soviet design flaw of storing its ammunition in the floor of its turret.

Apparently, the Ukrainians have mines that can be "planted" with artillery, and fire them into the path of tank and IFV columns. The mines disable the tanks/vehicles, the crews bail out leaving hatches open, and then drones drop bombs through the open hatches, rendering the tank or IFV unsalvageable or difficult to salvage.

Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

It also leaves the Ukrainians the option of recovering and refitting a disabled tank or IFV, depending on the seriousness of the mobility kill, and how difficult recovery would be.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Whether it's a target or a feint, breaking through near Mariupol to the Black Sea would making supplying or evacuating Crimea very difficult for the orcs. Russia has been concerned (and probably preparing) about this ever since the Ukrainians liberated Kherson and that entire side of the Dniepro.

A breakthrough to anywhere near the coast on the sea of Azov would cut off the land bridge for everything to the west, including Zaporizhzhia, Kherson and Crimea.  And I'd imagine there is a plan to take out the Kerch bridge more permanently as well.

Going to be interesting to see where the axis of advance is headed.  Melitopol, Bryansk, and Mariupol are all possible.

War comes to Putin's doorstep: Wealthy Moscow region is hit by kamikaze drones 'with blasts within earshot of Vladimir's official residence' 'in revenge for attacks on Ukrainian capital'

Moscow was under siege early today from suspected Ukrainian drone attacks
It came just hours after Putin unleashed a volley of suicide drones at Kyiv

By RACHAEL BUNYAN  and WILL STEWART
30 May 2023

Moscow was attacked this morning by suspected Ukrainian kamikaze drones just hours after Russian President Vladimir Putin unleashed yet another volley of strikes on the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv.

Several buildings were damaged in wealthy suburbs of Moscow, including the elite district of Rublyovka to the southwest of the capital.

One suspected Ukrainian drone exploded into a mushroom cloud near the village of Usovo, which is just down the road from Putin's official Novo-Ogaryovo residence.

'[Putin's residence] would be in earshot of the explosion,' one local said.

Explosive drones also struck blocks of flats in Leninsky Prospekt and Profsoyuznaya Street about six miles from the centre of Moscow, reportedly wounding several residents and damaging the buildings.

It would be such a shame if a drone destroyed his house and another drone destroyed Lenin's tomb.
