Footage of a Ukrainian M1A1SA Abrams tank being destroyed by Russian FPV drones. The tank was used by Ukraine's 425th Separate Assault Regiment "Skala." M1A1SA Abrams are rarely used these days, mostly being kept in the rear. The M1A1SA Abrams tank is manufactured in the United States. The M1A1SA Abrams tank was presumably delivered to Ukraine from Australia; the last tanks from this shipment arrived recently. The video was filmed near Pokrovsk, and the M1A1SA Abrams tank was destroyed by drone operators from the Russian 76th Airborne Division.

Footage of an attack on a Russian armored column near Dobropillya in the Krasnoarmiisk sector. There are no details of the battle. Ukrainian FPV drones and artillery actively targeted the column.

The video is edited to show the active moments of the battle. The authors did not show the entire battle. Ukrainian media reports that reserves are currently being sent to defend Dobropillya, but they are also in short supply.

A combat scene in Ukraine featuring a Russian 130mm towed gun "M-46" belonging to the 58th Guards Army of the "Dnepr" Force Group. The video was filmed near the village of Novodanilovka in the Zaporizhzhia Oblast, and fire is directed at Ukrainian army strongholds. Long-range M-46 guns entered service with the USSR in 1951. Technical information about them is available in the link to the video in the comments. Judging by the video, the gun is used in a single fortified position and is not being replaced.

Ukraine's 425th Separate Assault Regiment "Skala" displayed the US-made M1A1 Abrams tanks they are using. Forty-nine decommissioned M1A1 Abrams tanks were delivered to Ukraine from Australia. Previously, 31 M1A1 SA Abrams tanks were also delivered from the US, and they were used by the 47th Separate Mechanized Brigade "Magura." As The New York Times reported in March 2025, Ukraine had 11 tanks left from the American shipment; other sources say five tanks remain. The M1A1 Abrams tanks from the American shipment have now been withdrawn from the front lines. Tanks from the Australian shipment are already in use; their use was recently demonstrated in the Donbas. In the Ukrainian version, the M1A1 Abrams tanks have been fitted with additional blocks of the Soviet-era Kontakt-1 dynamic armor. A folding mesh grill has also been installed on the roof of the M1A1 Abrams to protect against drones.
