The video shows the use of a Russian ODAB-1500 fuel-aircraft bomb by a Su-34 aircraft. The ODAB-1500 bomb was used against a temporary deployment point of the Ukrainian army in the area of the settlement of Borovaya, Kharkov region of Ukraine.

Footage of a Russian FPV drone attacking a rare Ukrainian hybrid APC. The Ukrainian APC is unique, as it was created on the chassis of the Soviet-made 2S19 Msta-S self-propelled gun. Presumably, the homemade APC was fitted with a turret from the American M2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicle. As a result of the Russian FPV drone attack, the Ukrainian homemade APC was destroyed. The location of the shooting is not reported.

I just have to ask myself...why?. Bradly doesn't have thick armor, while the hull of the Msta being based on a MBT chassis, also has reduced armor so whats the point of it?

It can go forward and reverse and is more armored than a pickup truck. Right now anything that can go from A to B and shoot need to be used. A shame actually but we see some funky stuff used both sides. Now Ukraine have less options in vehicle salvage, we will see more horrible stuff going forward.

Footage of a Russian Su-34 fighter-bomber using an RBK-500 cluster bomb equipped with a UMPK module. The video was filmed near the village of Malaya Tokmachka, in the Orekhov direction, in the Zaporizhia region of Ukraine. The Russian RBK-500 bomb was dropped on the positions of the 118th separate mechanized brigade of the Ukrainian army. The RBK-500 SHOAB-0.5 bombs were adopted by the USSR in 1969.
