Russian military recounts burning of US Bradley infantry fighting vehicle

"The armored vehicle group advanced under the cover of tanks and artillery. They intended to make a lightning attack, namely to bring in infantry using Bradleys. In this photo, only three vehicles are visible, but in reality there were many more in this field. There were three more behind, plus a Leopard tank that was shot down at the end of the landing," said the company commander nicknamed "Admin".

His unit organized defense in the area between the villages of Rabotino and Verbovoye. The company consisted of mobilized soldiers.

"Our company consisted of mobilized soldiers. We were called up, trained on the training ground, then placed in position and held our ground. We waited for the enemy," - the soldier nicknamed "Mukha" answered the question whether his comrades before the special operation were professional soldiers.

According to the "Admin", the American infantry fighting vehicles were able to approach the Russian trenches, so the infantry under his command had to destroy them with mobile anti-tank grenade launchers. Already at the first stage of the attack, the ones who knocked out Ukrainian military vehicles were not only infantrymen, but also other units.

"It can be said that the anti-tank grenade launcher crews burned 90% of the enemy's vehicles. Artillery helped a lot, as did our engineers," said a soldier nicknamed "Monakh".

According to "Admin", after the Russian army repelled several attacks, the Ukrainian armed forces changed their tactics. The main battles took place at a distance of 700-800 meters, the soldiers in his unit used heavy machine guns to fight. But there were many cases of close combat that required the use of submachine guns. According to "Admin", the Ukrainian army tried to advance into their stronghold under the cover of smoke, but the enemy infantry encountered heavy fire.
