The anti-tank ambush team's tactics on this ambush are messing with me...

 

This freaking war man!

I definitely don't get the Russian mech troops response to this ambush but the more I look at it the more BATSHIT crazy the anti-tank teams tactics look.

They're not only within damn near danger close range to the enemy but they're almost within APS coverage range.

I don't know if they survived but I'm guessing they did judging from the reaction of the troops being ambushed.

BUT THEY SHOULDN'T BE!

Upon further review I don't think there are ANY LESSONS to be learned from this war.

We should treat it as an anomaly.

This thing is so weird, so disjointed, so freaking bat shit crazy that to try to apply this to any future conflicts would be setting ourselves up for failure.

Earlier I made the comment that we should reconsider the use of MBTs, IFV, APC and JLTV type vehicles in the attack.  That was based on how easily the Ukrainians have been picking off those vehicles.

I got pushback from readers and ya know what?  THEY'RE RIGHT!

The tactics are just terrible.
