M113 armored personnel carrier

A number of these are wheeled robotic systems.

But the order of funding, if we look at it, is a third to a quarter of what, say, the robotic M113 program received, what GuardTech would've received historically, what we received historically.

We're seeing either small procurement activities or small development contracts in the order of sub $2 million, which s- when you talk ground-based autonomy, that's not enough to move the needle if you look at, like, a Forterra or, you know, an Overland AI out of the US who are doing real off-road autonomy solutions.

Yeah.

if it was on the market, right? The Egyptians now manufacture their own armored cars, even their internal security vehicles are from Musser brand armored vehicles.

They use Bradleys, M113s, modified M113s, very advanced.

They got rid of all the BMPs, T-55s.

I am not joking.

Did you know that? We don't have army field hospitals.

Because Ukraine's infrastructure is so secure that once you are medevaced and they get you to a medical stretcher unit, like an M113 medical unit, then they immediately transport you to a major hospital.

And that's where all the surgeries are going on.

And this is not World War II level devastation.

They carried Hamilton, he couldn't walk, to a bunker.

An M113 armored personnel carrier carried them to brigade headquarters.

Gene Hamilton was going home.

When the rescue team arrived at Dong Ha, a reporter pushed forward through the crowd and said to Tom Norris, "It must have been rough out there.

Ukrainian losses across all sectors exceed 1,400 troops, with multiple armored fighting vehicles, motor vehicles, artillery guns, electronic warfare stations, and counter-fire radars destroyed.

Western origin losses include one UK-made Spartan armored personnel carrier, one US-made M113 armored personnel carrier, one US-made HMMWV armored vehicle, and two Canadian-made Senator armored vehicles.

operational tactical aviation, attack drones, missile troops, and artillery strike logistics centers, fuel, power and transport infrastructure, assembly workshops, UAV storage areas, and temporary deployment areas in 148 areas.

Russian aerospace forces shoot down one MiG-29.

The Such group liberates Oryakovatka in the Donetsk People's Republic.

Strikes hit two mechanized brigades, one airmobile brigade and one territorial defense brigade near Kondratovka, Nakanarovka, Nikolayevka, Slavyansk, Kramatorsk, Cherkaskoye, Druzhkovka, Kurtovka, and Viroliubovka.

Enemy losses in the Schuch sector amount to up to 260 troops, 1 UK-made Spartan armored personnel carrier, 1 US-made M113 armored personnel carrier, 9 armored fighting vehicles including 1 US-made HMMWV armored vehicles, and 2 Canadian-made Senator armored vehicles, 23 motor vehicles, and 4 field artillery guns.

This sector shows the most notable Western-origin armor attrition in the reporting period.

It inflicted losses on four mechanized brigades, one marine brigade, and one border detachment near Cilice, Izium in Kharkov region, Majaki, Lozovoje, and Volchiy Yar in Donetsk People's Republic.

Losses were more than 210 troops, four armored fighting vehicles, including one U.S.-made M-113 armored personnel carrier, 15 motor vehicles, three field artillery guns, including two Western-made.

Taking more advantageous lines and positions is less visible than a settlement capture, but it can improve observation, cover, and the ability to bring fire onto Ukrainian logistics and forward positions.

The destruction of the M113 and two Western-made artillery guns continues the erosion of Western origin and NATO standard systems.

The liberation of Kutyevka and Pershamarevka continues multiple-axis pressure along the Kharkov and Donetsk fronts.

The loss of one Ukrainian electronic warfare station in Zaporozhye degrades local jamming and early warning.

Destruction of a U.S.-made M-113 armored personnel carrier and two Western-made artillery guns continues erosion of Ukrainian NATO standard inventories.

Strikes on fuel, power, transport, and UAV-USV assembly and storage sites reduce Ukraine's capacity to sustain long-range strike generation and logistics.

What do you got, what do you got entered?

Well, I happen to have an Australian M113 from the Vietnam era.

Uh, and they were all personalized.

There was only four or five of them in this, uh, at this camp, at this base.

And so I figured I happen to know an Australian-

[laughs]

... who might have ridden in an M113 from time to time as a trooper, so I put that person's name on the side, and that would be Dave.

That's me, yes.
