"And it's not so much like the money, but it's also the ability to replace them, as in to build them. So if the Russians aren't building these anymore, then they cost a gazillion dollars. It doesn't really matter. They can't replace them. So it's both the money, but really the replaceability of them."
Hello Team
🎦 00:00.000-01:10.120
- Jonathan welcomes the team to a Ukraine War Update Extra.
- This video is a data-driven look at spreadsheets detailing equipment losses for both Russia and Ukraine, compiled by Andrew Perpetua (AP).
- It follows on from a previous video covering the first 10 of 19 backlogged loss lists from AP. This video will cover the remaining nine lists (11-19).
- The analysis covers the period from around 11th March onwards, coinciding with the Ukrainian withdrawal from the Kursk incursion, which is expected to show significant Ukrainian losses.
🪦 DISCLAIMER FOR GENERAL STAFF LOSSES DATA
- These are real people with real lives and real families who love them. Don’t let the numbers sap your humanity.
- These numbers probably aren’t accurate but they’re the best we have and we don’t need them to be accurate to be indicative of patterns of activity.
- All losses are estimates. Losses cannot be counted with accuracy because of the conditions on the ground.
- Both sides would see it to be of their advantage to minimize their own losses maximize the other side’s losses.
- Neither side releases their losses but we have enough transparency from the Ukrainian side to have confidence in they are indicative.
- Personnel losses are hard to count. If a soldier gets injured, heals up, and returns to the front line only to get injured again, is that one loss or two? Also, how to deal with losses from PMC’s or soldiers fighting with RF from occupied territories?
- Equipment losses are hard to count. If an AA complex involves several parts and one part gets disabled, is that a loss, or a fraction of a loss? If a tank gets disabled, repaired, back into the fight, then disabled again, is that one lost tank or two?
- All recorded losses are vulnerable to multiple reporting. We have already seen numerous cases of multiple drones in the air reporting the same loss from different angles as multiple engagements.
- Losses are not always reported on the same day they occurred. It is frequent that drone losses are reported at least 24 hours after other terrestrial equipment losses. Certain losses may not be reported for days or weeks for military intelligence reasons.
Data Deep Dive Disclaimer & Viewer Appreciation
🎦 01:11.100-01:55.580
- Jonathan acknowledges this detailed spreadsheet analysis won't appeal to everyone and might be considered boring by many.
- However, he caters to the "sad and geeky" viewers (like himself) who appreciate this level of data.
- He gives a shout-out to Matt from New Zealand ("Chibro") who expressed gratitude for the previous data video.
Loss List Analysis (Day 1 / List 11 - approx. March 11th)
🎦 01:55.600-08:04.820
- Jonathan begins analysing the 11th loss list from Andrew Perpetua's backlog.
- Ukrainian Losses:
- AN/TPQ-36 radar (Humvee-mounted type).
- Captured M115O military engineering vehicle.
- Two captured Bradley IFVs (likely from Kursk withdrawal - "That's going to hurt").
- Artillery: Three 2S22 Bohdana self-propelled howitzers (SPHs), L-119 towed howitzers noted as now being produced in Ukraine via BAE Systems. Jonathan notes the shift towards sustainable, indigenously produced equipment like the Bohdana.
- Damaged BM-21 Grad MLRS.
- Destroyed Leopard 1A5 tank.
- Damaged T-90A tank (Jonathan speculates it might be a previously captured Russian tank operated by Ukraine).
- APCs/MRAPs: Significant losses (nearly 10 APCs, 10 MRAPs), mostly Western-provided (Strykers, French VABs, Swedish PBV 302, Finnish Sisu, MaxxPro, Senator, QFP), but many are damaged rather than destroyed, offering hope for repair.
- Numerous Humvees and civilian vehicles.
- Russian Losses:
- No air defence systems listed.
- Artillery: Older towed howitzers and a couple of SPHs.
- Tanks: Around 14 tanks listed, with almost half (6) being 'track garden sheds' (tanks used primarily for transport/assault with add-on armour, not direct tank roles).
- A much higher proportion of Russian combat assets (tanks, IFVs, AFVs, APCs, IMVs) are listed as destroyed or abandoned (irretrievably lost) compared to damaged.
- Huge number of ATVs compared to Ukraine, especially Chinese Desert Cross 1000-3 'golf buggies', quads, and one motorcycle.
- Many civilian vehicles, mostly destroyed.
- Comparison: Russians lost slightly more pieces of kit overall, but this difference is largely due to the high number of ATVs, trucks, and civilian vehicles. Ukrainian combat asset losses are slightly higher, making it a more challenging day for Ukraine, though mitigated slightly by the higher proportion of damaged vs destroyed equipment.
Loss List Analysis (Day 2 / List 12)
🎦 08:04.880-13:49.134
- Jonathan analyses the 12th loss list.
- Ukrainian Losses:
- Destroyed 9K33M3 Osa short-range tactical air defence system (details its older nature and short range: ~10-12 km).
- Destroyed AN/TPQ-48 radar.
- Three engineering vehicles.
- Captured M777 and M119 towed howitzers ("Ouch").
- Destroyed AHS Krab SPH (Polish/South Korean co-production).
- Other damaged artillery.
- Three tanks (incl. one 'track garden shed').
- Damaged Bradley IFV.
- Significant APC/MRAP/IMV losses, but luckily most are damaged, not destroyed. Includes many Strikers (7 listed), Snatch Land Rovers, Panhard VBL (Pantera T6), Australian Bushmasters, and Senator MRAPs (Jonathan notes the evolution of the Senator from a basic vehicle to an MRAP variant).
- Few trucks, ATVs, and civilian vehicles (used by civilians).
- Russian Losses:
- Destroyed Buk M1 air defence system (hit by GMLRS).
- Six boats (sunk/destroyed/damaged).
- Artillery: D-48 (85mm anti-tank gun - Jonathan questions its utility as indirect fire), many D-30s.
- Tanks: About 9 listed, with 6 being 'track garden sheds'.
- IFVs/APCs: About 7 IFVs and 7 APCs lost, including one BTR drowned then hit by FPV drone.
- Many ATVs again: quads, motorcycles, Chinese 'golf buggies'.
- Numerous civilian vehicles.
- Comparison: Overall losses appear roughly similar ("one for one"). Combat asset losses are comparable, but Russia again loses significantly more ATVs and similar light vehicles.
Loss List Analysis (Day 3 / List 13)
🎦 13:49.613-19:47.394
- Jonathan analyses the 13th loss list.
- Ukrainian Losses:
- Significant surveillance and comms equipment (Jonathan considers these less critical than combat assets).
- Destroyed 2S22 Bohdana SPH and French Caesar SPH. Jonathan discusses the cost difference ($2.5m for Bohdana vs ~$5.8m for Caesar) and questions if the Caesar is worth over double the price ("Are you better off buying two and a bit Bogdanas for a Caesar? I would have thought so.").
- Destroyed Leopard 1A5 tank (notes their vulnerability compared to Leopard 2s, and general trend of using tanks for indirect fire due to drone threats).
- Destroyed Bradley IFV.
- Few AFVs.
- Large number of APCs (~12), MRAPs (~10), and IMVs (~6), with a high proportion irretrievably lost. Includes Turkish Kirpies (captured/abandoned/destroyed), Strikers (4 irretrievably lost), M113s, Humvees, Bushmasters, BAT UMG.
- Russian Losses:
- Destroyed Buk air defence system.
- Couple of electronic warfare pieces.
- Howitzers and an MT-12 Rapira anti-tank gun (again questioning its usefulness).
- Four tanks (mainly older types).
- About 8 IFVs (mainly destroyed, one BMP-2 captured).
- Some AFVs/APCs.
- Vast number of ATVs: ~20 quads, motorcycles, golf buggies.
- Huge number of civilian vehicles destroyed. Jonathan links this to a video he showed from Belgorod depicting a 'road of death' with ~20 destroyed vehicles on a short stretch, illustrating the scale when multiplied across the entire front line (now including the northern border).
- Comparison: Russians lost significantly more equipment overall, driven by the massive numbers of ATVs, trucks and civilian vehicles. Excluding comms gear, Ukraine lost slightly more core combat assets, with a worrying proportion being irretrievably lost. Jonathan notes that Russia uses ATVs/etc. for attacks, blurring the 'combat asset' distinction.
Loss List Analysis (Day 4 / List 14)
🎦 19:47.894-24:16.573
- Jonathan analyses the 14th loss list.
- Ukrainian Losses:
- Destroyed 2S22 Bohdana SPH and another AHS Krab SPH.
- Highlights the sheer volume accumulating over 19 days, e.g., 7 M113 APCs irretrievably lost just today.
- Captured BTR-4E IFV.
- Four Western-provided MRAPs destroyed.
- Eight IMVs lost (6 destroyed), mainly Humvees, also a Titan.
- Jonathan hopes these high losses are mainly linked to the Kursk operation fallout.
- Russian Losses:
- Destroyed Pantsir S1 air defence system (second one noted in these lists). Jonathan discusses its cost (~$15m) and short-to-medium range (~18km), deeming it a "decent bit of kit".
- Damaged BM-21 Grad MLRS.
- Numerous old towed howitzers (D-30s, M-46s, D-20s - 1950s era).
- 139 personnel listed killed today (compared to ~100-120 on previous days).
- Only three tanks listed.
- About 8 IFVs (almost all destroyed).
- About 6 APCs (one MTLB captured, rest irretrievably lost).
- Many ATVs again: motorcycles, Desert Cross golf buggies.
- Many trucks and civilian vehicles, including numerous UAZ-452 'Bukhanka' vans modified into flatbeds ("Party Loaves").
- Comparison: A better day for Ukraine overall. Russian combat asset losses are broadly similar in number to Ukraine's, but Russia again loses vastly more trucks, ATVs, and civilian vehicles. The Pantsir loss is significant for Russia.
Loss List Analysis (Day 5 / List 15)
🎦 24:16.573-29:05.087
- Jonathan analyses the 15th loss list.
- Ukrainian Losses:
- Captured M577 command post vehicle and another destroyed (notes it's an older M113 variant, so not a massive loss but still hurts).
- Engineering vehicles.
- Artillery: Two 2S22 Bohdana SPHs, FH-70 towed howitzers (notes these are UK/German/Italian co-productions, provided to Ukraine by Italy and Estonia, not the UK).
- Captured Bradley IFV (previously listed as abandoned). Jonathan discusses how equipment listed as 'abandoned' might later be re-listed as 'destroyed' (e.g., hit by drones subsequently). This is a known factor in AP's lists and slightly reduces the net new losses counted over time for both sides.
- Abandoned Marder 1A3 IFV.
- Abandoned YPR-765 (Dutch M113 variant).
- Five APCs (mainly M113s).
- MRAPs/IMVs including Iveco LMV and Humvees.
- Russian Losses:
- Damaged Osa air defence system.
- Three BM-21 Grads (2 destroyed, 1 damaged).
- Four D-30 howitzers.
- Excavator.
- Five tanks.
- About 12 IFVs, but most are damaged, not destroyed (only 5 destroyed/abandoned).
- Few APCs.
- Many trucks, quads, civilian vehicles, and more motorcycles.
- Comparison: Russians lost more equipment overall, again due to trucks/ATVs/civilian vehicles. Core combat asset losses seem comparable between the sides. The damaged Russian Osa balances the captured Ukrainian Bradley/M577s somewhat.
Loss List Analysis (Day 6 / List 16)
🎦 29:05.327-31:22.807
- Jonathan initially shows the previous day's list by mistake (29:27.067), then corrects himself and analyses the 16th list.
- Ukrainian Losses:
- Significant surveillance and comms equipment.
- Artillery: Older Soviet-era pieces.
- Two tanks (including one Ukrainian 'track garden shed').
- Couple of IFVs.
- Quite a few APCs (Strikers, M113s feature heavily).
- Captured Australian Bushmaster MRAP.
- Captured Humvee.
- Several MRAPs lost/damaged.
- Few IMVs.
- Notes several vehicles listed as 'abandoned and hit', potentially appearing on previous lists as just 'abandoned'.
- Quite a lot of civilian vehicles (mostly damaged).
- Russian Losses:
- Couple of artillery pieces.
- Four tanks.
- Seven IFVs.
- One IMV.
- Most Russian combat assets listed are irretrievably lost, but the total number is lower than Ukraine's.
- Many ATVs again: golf buggies, quads, motorbikes.
- Significant number of civilian vehicles, but fewer than Ukraine lost today.
- Comparison: A worse day for Ukraine. They lost more core combat assets and more civilian vehicles than Russia on this day.
Loss List Analysis (Day 7 / List 17 - approx. March 17th)
🎦 31:22.807-34:46.787
- Jonathan analyses the 17th loss list.
- Ukrainian Losses:
- Considerable comms equipment.
- Damaged 2S22 Bohdana SPH.
- Destroyed M1 Abrams tank ("That's going to hurt a bit").
- Three captured vehicles: Bradley IFV, BMP-2 IFV, BTR-60PB APC. Jonathan suggests captured vehicles often indicate Russian advances into previously Ukrainian-held/contested areas (likely Kursk/Belgorod related).
- Total of about 6 tanks lost.
- IFVs: Losses include two Bradleys (one captured, one destroyed), but mostly older Soviet types.
- Large numbers of MRAPs, APCs, IMVs lost, including Senators, M113s, MaxxPros, Kirpies. Drones (Night Vision, FPV, Vandal/Lancet) seem responsible for many losses.
- Russian Losses:
- Destroyed Pantsir S1 air defence system (the third one noted in this batch of lists).
- Destroyed Zoo Park 1 counter-battery radar system. Jonathan highlights this as a major loss, noting its high cost ($10-15m) and importance.
- Destroyed 2S7 Pion heavy SPH (long-range system).
- Destroyed D-30 howitzer.
- Tanks: About 12 lost, with a good half being 'track garden sheds'.
- IFVs: About 15 lost.
- Other AFVs/APCs/MRAPs/IMVs: Mostly irretrievably lost.
- Many trucks, a huge number of ATVs, and civilian vehicles.
- Comparison: Although overall Russian losses are higher (due to ATVs etc.), and combat asset numbers might be similar, Russia suffered two very significant high-value losses (Pantsir S1, Zoo Park 1). Despite the painful M1 Abrams and captured Bradley losses, Jonathan suggests Ukraine had the upper hand today due to the high value of the Russian systems destroyed.
Loss List Analysis (Day 8 / List 18 - approx. March 18th)
🎦 34:46.787-40:01.821
- Jonathan analyses the 18th loss list. Both sides suffered heavy losses.
- Ukrainian Losses:
- Three M577 command post vehicles (M113 based).
- German Berger Panzer armoured recovery vehicle (ARV).
- Five engineering vehicles lost/damaged, including German Wisent 1 mine-clearing vehicles.
- Captured 2S1 Gvozdika SPH. Jonathan finds this notable, suggesting it was likely captured deep behind former lines (perhaps broken down during the Kursk withdrawal).
- Tanks, IFVs, AFVs, APCs lost.
- Large list of MRAPs, including Bushmaster, Kirpi, Kirpi 2 (updated Turkish 'hedgehog'), Senator.
- Captured Humvee.
- Other IMVs, including destroyed Ukrainian-made Novators.
- Overall, a challenging day for Ukraine with significant losses of useful kit.
- Russian Losses:
- Mi-28 attack helicopter (crashed due to pilot error inside Russia on March 18th).
- Artillery: High losses today, potentially due to a released video montage. Includes 3 BM-21 Grads (hit by night vision drones) and three damaged M1989 Koksan SPHs (North Korean provided, hit by GMLRS cluster munitions, likely in the Kursk region - Jonathan recalls showing the video).
- Tanks: About 12 lost, only 3 being 'track garden sheds', most listed as 'unknown' type (likely heavily damaged/disassembled), some hit mines, others FPV drones.
- Captured BTR.
- About 6 IFVs.
- Massive number of ATVs again (motorbikes, quads, golf buggies).
- Many civilian vehicles destroyed.
- Comparison: Ukrainians lost more core combat assets by number. However, Jonathan reiterates his point that Russia uses ATVs/golf buggies/motorcycles as combat assets for assaults, so including these might shift the balance of combat losses towards Russia. The Koksan and helicopter losses are notable for Russia.
Loss List Analysis (Day 9 / List 19 - approx. March 19th)
🎦 40:01.821-48:01.521
- Jonathan analyses the 19th and final list in this batch. Notes huge losses for both sides, but potentially catastrophic Russian losses in specific categories.
- Ukrainian Losses:
- Extensive comms equipment (Starlink etc.).
- Berger Panzer ARV.
- Captured IMR-2 engineering vehicle.
- Four captured vehicles: Stryker APC, M113 APC, two MaxxPro MRAPs. Jonathan again links the high number of captured vehicles over the 19 days to the fallout from the Kursk operation.
- Three artillery pieces.
- Three tanks.
- IFVs: About 12 lost, most irretrievably, including two destroyed Bradleys and an abandoned Marder 1A3.
- APCs: About 6 lost.
- MRAPs: About 10 lost (mostly irretrievably), including many International MaxxPros (Jonathan shows a picture, notes ~9000 were built, making them available surplus).
- IMVs: About 6 lost (mostly irretrievably), including many Humvees.
- Many trucks and civilian vehicles lost today.
- Russian Losses: (Very bad day for Russia, potentially counteracting losses from previous days).
- Destroyed Fyodor Ryubin tugboat (hit by night vision drone off Crimea - Jonathan links it to Ukrainian reports of hitting an illegally seized vessel).
- Crashed Mi-8 helicopter.
- Multiple high-value air defence & radar systems destroyed/damaged, likely from the USV-launched drone montage near Crimea Jonathan previously covered:
- Three Pantsir S1 systems (1 destroyed, 2 damaged).
- Damaged Strela-10 system.
- Damaged S-300 Transporter Erector Launcher (TEL).
- Multiple expensive radar systems: Kasta 2E2 (cost ~$60m), Nebo-SV, Podlet-K1, Nebo-M (cost ~$75m). Jonathan emphasizes the extreme cost and, more importantly, the difficulty or inability for Russia to replace these complex systems.
- Two boats sunk, one Project C4236 damaged.
- Destroyed BM-21 Grad MLRS.
- Damaged BM-27 Uragan MLRS.
- Significant artillery losses.
- Tanks: About 10 lost, most being 'track garden sheds'.
- Many IFVs, AFVs, APCs - almost all destroyed.
- Numerous trucks, ATVs, and civilian vehicles.
- Comparison: A truly terrible day for Russia due to the concentrated loss of extremely high-value, hard-to-replace air defence and radar assets. While Ukraine still suffered significant losses, Jonathan views this day as a major win for Ukraine, potentially balancing out some of the attritional losses over the previous days. The high proportion of destroyed Russian assets is also noted.
Overall Reflections on the 9 Days (Lists 11-19)
🎦 48:02.220-48:48.960
- Jonathan concludes the analysis of the nine loss lists (11-19 from AP's backlog).
- He acknowledges that undeniably, Ukraine lost a lot of equipment during this period, particularly in the categories of APCs, MRAPs, IMVs, and AFVs.
- These heavy losses are strongly linked to the Kursk incursion – both equipment destroyed during the offensive push and equipment lost or abandoned during the subsequent withdrawal, which Russian forces later documented.
Wrap up
🎦 48:50.200-49:02.360
- Jonathan signs off, hoping the nearly 49-minute detailed data breakdown was useful.
- He congratulates viewers who stuck through the entire analysis, suggesting they reward themselves with a pat on the back, a crumpet, and a cup of tea.
🤖❓ AI Debrief (post task) - anything the AI didn't understand
The provided YouTube video title "Ukraine War Update EXTRA - AP's Loss Lists - 11-19 of Massive Backlog -" did not contain the usual date and part identifier (e.g., YYYYMMDDa) mentioned in the context description. The `` and `` tags have been left empty accordingly.
Transcript spelling corrections:
'NTPQ-36' / 'ANTPQ' corrected to AN/TPQ-36 or AN/TPQ-48 based on context.
'NHS Crab' corrected to AHS Krab.
'VAR Marder' corrected to Marder.
'Coxhands' corrected to Koksan (M1989 Koksan).
'Fyodor Uyupin' / 'Uyüpin' corrected to Fyodor Ryubin based on external search matching the event described.
'Gimlas' likely refers to GMLRS (Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System) and interpreted as such in the summary.
Jonathan uses the term "Vandal drone", which likely refers to Lancet loitering munitions or similar types. Kept his term in the summary as it's his specific language.
The specific boat 'Project C4236' mentioned at 47:13.940 could not be easily verified and might be a misheard designation.
🤖💭 AI Plan (pre task) - the AI's step by step thought process
Goal: Summarise the provided ATP Geopolitics transcript about analysing Andrew Perpetua's (AP) loss lists (backlog 11-19) for the ATP Distilled project using British English and specific XML tags.
Input: YouTube video title "Ukraine War Update EXTRA - AP's Loss Lists - 11-19 of Massive Backlog -" and a timestamped transcript.
Decomposition:
Task 1 (Title/Date/Part): Extract title, date, part. The provided title lacks the usual date/part format (e.g., YYYYMMDDX). I'll use the title as given and leave date/part empty, noting this in Queries. Title: "Ukraine War Update EXTRA - AP's Loss Lists - 11-19 of Massive Backlog -". Date: N/A. Part: N/A.
Task 2 (Topic Titles): Define concise, specific topic titles. Start with "Hello Team", end with "Wrap up". Break down the analysis by day/spreadsheet. Identify key themes like Kursk withdrawal impact, types of equipment lost (high-value vs common, Western vs Soviet, ATVs), cost/replaceability discussions, drone impacts, and comparisons between sides.
Task 3 (Timestamps): Assign start/end timestamps from the transcript to each topic title. Ensure full coverage and correct format (HH:MM:SS or MM:SS).
Task 4 (Summaries): Write bullet-point summaries for each topic, capturing key data points, Jonathan's analysis/opinions, source credits (Andrew Perpetua), cost details mentioned, equipment specifics (e.g., Bohdana, Caesar, Pantsir, Koksan, radars, M113, Bradley, Max Pro), and context (Kursk, drone warfare, ATVs as combat assets, USV-launched drones). Use British English and correct Ukrainian spellings. Incorporate Jonathan's style (e.g., "track garden sheds", "party loaves", crumpets). Correct transcript errors (e.g., AN/TPQ, AHS Krab, Koksan, Marder, Fyodor Ryubin, GMLRS).
Task 5 (Quote): Select a significant quote reflecting cost vs replaceability.
Task 6 (Queries): Document the missing date/part in the title and any transcript ambiguities/corrections made (e.g., place names, equipment names, potentially misheard words).
Refinement & Formatting:
Ensure granularity in topics. Day-by-day analysis seems appropriate.
Maintain British English (summarise, analyse, programme, defence).
Use markdown sparingly for emphasis.
Double-check XML tags and structure for validity. Pay attention to closing tags.
Correct specific names/terms: Andrew Perpetua, GMLRS (from Gimlas), AN/TPQ-36/48, AHS Krab, Marder, Koksan, Bohdana, Caesar, Pantsir S1, Zoo Park 1, Kasta 2E2, Nebo-SV, Podlet-K1, Nebo-M, Fyodor Ryubin. Jonathan's terms like "track garden shed", "party loaf", "Vandal drone" should be kept as they reflect his commentary style.
Execution: Go through transcript segment by segment, assigning to topics, extracting timestamps, and writing summaries. Perform corrections as identified. Select quote. Document queries. Assemble final XML.
Final Review: Read through the generated XML output to check for consistency, accuracy, adherence to rules, and correct XML structure. Ensure all opening tags have matching closing tags. Check timestamp continuity. Ensure summaries reflect the transcript content accurately. Check British English usage.
