Russian troops in the Kursk region drowned their own APC-D on the crossing: details

Analysts of the Defense Express portal told about it on January 17. Social networks are already actively spreading photos and even memes that emphasize the absurdity of such a decision. After all, there is no information about the priority or malfunction of the equipment used in the network, and this may indicate that Russians could well use their own well -in -chief armored vehicles in such a rather comic way.

As you know from open sources, Russian BTR-D is a technique that the Russian Federation has inherited from the USSR. Such a landing armored personnel carrier is considered to be the main basic technique in the Russians. It is intended for transportation of weapons, ammunition, transportation of personnel and wounded, fuel and lubricants, etc. In this case, open sources contain information that BTR-D is a technique that is able to move at a speed of 10 km/h forward and 1. 5 km/h.

That is, such an armored vehicle can easily cope with water obstacles, if used as intended and according to technical features. Instead, the Russians, as we can see, have a different use for the APC. However, at the time of use in the role of the crossing was defective, the actions of the military of the Russian Federation can still be called inappropriate. Defective armored personnel carriers could well be used to remove the components that would be required to repair other pieces of equipment.

"Of course, everything can be much more prose-Russian paratroopers have tried to overcome those rivers on their APC-Ds," they suggest in Defense Express. However, even in this case, the situation remains comical. After all, instead of saving equipment (one of the main principles of Russian troops in combat), soldiers decided to leave everything as it is, and to use the "drops" to cross the river Vybrid.
