🇷🇺🇺🇦🇺🇸🖇 @Rybar on the Leaked Secret US Docs

Last week, photo materials & documents marked SECRET & TOP SECRET unexpectedly appeared on the Web reflecting data on the preparation of the AFU for the spring-summer campaign from the training of Ukrainians to the deadlines for the supply of arms

It is pointless to go into details of what is specifically written in these documents, since all the content has already been sufficiently analyzed by our colleagues from War History Weapons , Search engine ZVI and LostArmour

We focus only on a few important points

🔻 How true is this data?

It's no secret that the West is been preparing the AFU for an offensive. On the basis of the structure of the combined armed forces of NATO, 2 army corps were formed as part of the AFU, which included, among other things, the brigades indicated in the documents

If you look at the dates of the preliminary completion of the preparation of new formations, the transfer of weapons & military equipment- we can conclude that the information as of the end of February was not far from reality. Getting this information in the public domain is not such a big problem: as we wrote about this back in early February

In reality, the deadlines have changed a long time ago. Various difficulties arose somewhere in manpower, somewhere in the supply of equipment and other arms

❗️ As a result, only 47th, 67th, 117th and 118tn Mechanized Brigades from the list are now fully combat-ready, for the rest, the date of full staffing was postponed to May-June, and the 5th Separate Tank Brigade to December

🔻 So this data is real?

In the leaked lists at the end of February, only nine brigades are being formed but in fact more than 20 were being trained at various training grounds in Ukraine and in Western countries. And ready for the beginning of April:

▪️ 9 AC
➖47th, 67th Mechanized Brigades
➖3rd Separate Assault Brigade
➖1st Separate Special Purpose Brigade
➖4th Separate Tank Brigade

▪️ 10 AC
➖115th, 116th, 117th, 118th Mechanized Brigades

The 21st, 22nd Mechanized Brigades & 77th Air Assault Forces' Separate Airmobile Brigade are equipped. Currently, the AFU in the state have 12 combat-ready units (to one degree or another) which are quite realistic to use in the spring-summer campaign, 13 more are in the process of formation

🔻 For what purpose could the documents be published?

Other "leaked" documents dealt with obvious things, the fact that the US is listening to the leadership of South Korea Separate documents talked about the lack of shells, failures in the products of the Western defense industry and the general "unpreparedness" of the AFU

And luckily, just a couple of weeks before the large-scale counteroffensive of the AFU , such convenient TOP SECRET files appeared on the Web. It all looks like a controlled leak & a massive disinformation campaign

This is also confirmed by the large-scale information support from the media giants WSJ, WP, CNN & others who are trying to overtake each other in an attempt to show how uncombat-ready the AFU are & in every possible way encourage the Russian military-political leadership to make a mistake

While in Russia they relish the lack of AFVs or SAMs in the AFU, the West continues to supply the AFU, Public demonstration of the southern regions as the main attack direction (however obvious it may be) can be a red herring

The offensive may begin somewhere in the Belgorod or Bryansk region. In the Kharkov region, near the border with Russia, a multi-thousand grouping of the AFU is noted incl. a unit of 67

🔻The AFU really had & still have problems at the preparation stage, in some brigades they are quite significant: lack of time, people, weapons affect the quality of trained formations; this is certainly taken into account in the US

In case the announced plan to “seize Crimea” fails- allegedly leaking secret info will make it possible to justify the failure against Russia by the inability of the AFU to properly implement the military assistance issued by the West
