Yep it is sad, people eventually loose interest.Nikel wrote: Mon Sep 25, 2023 8:45 pm Strange nobody posted this, must be a sign of what they call "war fatigue".
There's a video floating around with multiple intercepts of incoming missiles having the characteristic "snap" of pantsyr missiles detonating in the air, but a single missile manages to make it through and impact the building. Shows how important better low altitude coverage is so you have enough time to detect/intercept all the missiles and enough radars so when others shut down for repairs more can be brought up to cover the gap.
AFU claims three dozen officers dead.
RUMil claims one guy missing.
I imagine the truth is somewhere in the middle, in the past Ukraine has killed over a dozen generals that months later showed up alive in some random press release video and "sunk" ships that later returned to port undamaged. Both sides frequently lie claiming all missiles were intercepted unless it is a very public location.
Footage of the immediate area has no signs of the parked luxury vehicles, panicked underlings and large rescue operation one would expect for "three dozen" officers buried under rubble like with the AFU officer meeting in the pizzeria.
After the drydock strike and destruction of the LST I can't imagine they'd be stupid enough to have such a big meeting on the surface in broad daylight with just one Pantsyr-S2 to cover it, there are many soviet era command bunkers in the area and likely more still as they've been turtling since 2014. No matter the stupidity of individual officers all it takes is one guy to say it is a bad idea.
What is an "administrative headquarters"? is it like bookkeeping? or deciding what missiles to launch?
