  • The NATO experiment in Ukraine is something that has never been done before. Ukraine is an army that is fighting on the platforms of 20+ different countries. As time goes on, ao does the attrition of not only men, but material. The supply and repair the machines of one nation is enough of a challenge, but for 20+ it is beyond belief.
    Smaller nations provided the weapons systems they themselves would war with, may of the larger took the opportunity to clear out an ageing arsenal, all is good and gratefully accepted, but it comes not without complications.
    This video is my best attempt to explain some of these challenges and where a sizeable portion of your donations go every month.
    Thank you for your continued an faithful support! We need it! 🙏 ⬇️

      Brandon,if I may ask and I'll ask again in the next Q&A video as well but does ukraine have a need for mechanics and/or welders?and what are they paid?I asked about soldiers average pay in the last Q&A and to be honest you seemed hurt or conflicted by the question.i ONLY ask because I have a mortgage loan and don't want my family to be left with it,as it is my duty as a man.my mortgage is 800 a month and I would be happy to work for that plus enough to get personal essentials.

      Hey bro in arms, you beat me to it. I had a similar question to post here, just that i want to do a (CNC) machinist's job for AFU, just as mentioned ex.g. for these gas canister valve converters here. I have no lowest wage limit besides what's needed for survival at the location. I also have no YT app - thus no live chat available right now to ask directly, so if you get an answer, please let me know in a comment either here or better under any longform video of my chanell (that we can exchange DM). If we could both manage to get a helpful metalwork job in UA, i could accompany and translate for you, at least for the trip or set-up stage (i'm fluent in russian and other languages, largely understand Ukrainian).

    Well done Brandon, you have shown, yet again, your ability to recognise a problem and find working solutions. Nobody but Ukrainians could tackle this logistics nightmare and succeed, Most armies provide logistics support for 2-3 generations of the same equipment. Ukraine is providing logistical support for equipment both civilian and military, from many countries, that has been manufactured over a period of 50 years. I don't think any country , or even NATO, apart from Ukraine, could tackle this problem and find acceptable working solutions in real time. This is yet another reason why we need Ukraine in NATO. They have proved time and time again that they are capable of thinking outside the box to find solutions to get the job done.

You presented a lesser known part of army that can't show in a media sexy way what they can do with a little bit of help. Everyone understands by now how good investing in drones and trucks is and at least your viewers understand how effective it is to support also engineering workshops.

    I think there is a repairline near the Ukrainian and Polish border.
    Might be a Polish army station near the border.
    What I heard is that all the heavy stuff like APC's and MBT are brought there for repairs.
    Probably Rheinmetall is also involved, maybe you can get parts for Humvee's there.

    The people in Ukraine running Logistics and Maintenance/Repair are probably some of the most competent in the world right now at 'make it work with what you have and whatever you can get'. Incredible resourcefulness.

    You can buy parts hummers from auction for as little as $3500. They are complete, but likely not running at that price. Theres many variations. The m997 ambulance version might be of interest to you. The largest hurdle (& expense) would be shipping them to Europe & getting them to ukraine. Hummer parts are expensive, so this is by far the cheapest option.
    Obviously other millitary vehicles are also available at auction, but theyre much more money, $20k+.

    The tires can be foam filled, you lose the capability to lower the pressure but it will never get flat.

      @BaLiBeY35 what brand and did it dry solid? I've had great luck with the stuff I use and you can drive until the tires are gone. The only downside is changing the tires

    Glow plugs? They are short of bloody glow plugs? WTF? Ukraine is getting 20, 30, 40+ year old equipment and weapons and nobody thought of supplying the consumables?
    I read the book (and watched the mini series) Generation Kill and an _"organised"_ military *forgot* to bring TW25B or similar lubricant for the M2 and M19 weapon systems. They didn't bring sufficient batteries for their NVGs. This happened in an organised and structured military with common vehicles and weapons across the branches.
    Ukrainian has a hodge podge of everything from so many different nations and their logistics must be an absolute nightmare yet they keep saying *Thank you* and are grateful for the crap some are sending. *FIFTEEN PERCENT* of the equipment that arrived *FOUR MONTHS LATER* than promised for the 2023 summer offensive arrived in a *NON WORKING* condition. Other items needed to be made battle worthy/ready.

    its crazy what the us could do and make the abrams better, one change is hydraulic to electric would lower it atleast 20 tons if not more. i dont see us building brand new.. unless armour requires. theyll rip everything out update and add new equipment.
