Translation:

In one battle, Mykolaiv paratroopers destroyed 5 tanks and 4 enemy infantry fighting vehicles.

The enemy once again tested the stability of the defense of paratroopers of the 79th separate airborne assault brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, who are carrying out combat missions in Donetsk region.

At dawn, the Russian occupiers began an assault on the positions of the Maroon Berets from Mykolaiv. To achieve the effect of complete surprise, the enemy used smoke. However, reconnaissance noticed the advance of the enemy column in time and the artillery of the paratroopers began to inflict fire damage on the enemy.

Together to victory! VAT - Always First! Glory to Ukraine!

      Yeah, certainly agree there. Their use will be more and more limited to niche circumstances. Exploiting breakthroughs and pushing on positions you reasonably believe don’t have ATGMs might be their primary purpose going forward.

      If we are able to develop an effective weapon to counter drones and ATGMS, it may bring back much of the tank’s lost effectiveness. Laser weapons are starting to become a thing and some active protection systems do exist, though it is questionable how effective they are in combat in their current state.
