I will publish the list of new losses, as soon as i finished checking all the sources i have.
I am currently standing at 494x New Entries.

I couldnt properly ID most of the Vehicles, due to the angle of filming and time.
Counting this did cost me 7 1/2 Hours.
135x Captured, 26x Destroyed

Al Jazeera published 3 videos from the ground showing the aftermath and abandoned vehicles. (I will link them in the end of the thread)
Counting these i come to the conclusion that the RSF lost a minimun of 161 Vehicles. All softskin Vehicles, mostly former Civilian.

And a couple turrets, 2x BTR-80A and 1x BMP-1 Turret
Also formerly captured from the SAF

A really rarely seen M113A3.
Formerly captured from the SAF
March 29, 2025 at 5:17 PM
Some Control Station i am so far unable to ID
Interestingly painted in RSF colors, so not necessarily former SAF
March 29, 2025 at 5:17 PM
A RSF Amir (Note its painted in RSF color, unlike most of the other captured Vehicles)
March 29, 2025 at 5:17 PM
2x 122mm 2S1 Gvozdika
Formerly captured from the SAF

Maybe I will create something to give you a better overview over total losses as well, if I find the time. Don't know yet, the last two weeks were quite busy, but for now it's just Google sheets with losses.

And then they will bomb some random Ukrainian City.
March 11, 2025 at 7:28 PM
Or say they cant do it, cause of *Insert something Ukraine did or did not do*

Also im pretty sure that they will bomb some random Ukrainian City before they answer.

And they will do it again as soon as they refuse.

And if they agree they will break it in 2 weeks max.

I also need to find a way how to treat the M113 losses.
The ones loaded with explosives fall under the Kamikaze Drone category imo.
But i still need to decide about the ones where its not clear if they were used to carry explosives or in more traditional roles. Future Problems...

AND after that comes the IDF media, for the Hamas, Hezbollah Losses.

Which is relatively easy. The IDF documents the stuff they destroy/capture pretty nicely.

You just need to know where to look.
Plus a few other accounts that posts those losses.
March 10, 2025 at 9:03 PM
Just to give you an idea of the masses i have to look through.
And you know whats really neat?
When i finish the Hamas, Hezbollah stuff i have a couple other TGs/Twitter accounts to move through.
March 10, 2025 at 9:03 PM
I am saying "around" cause i let the file count everything that has "UAV" as category and i have a couple entries of Loitering Munitions they tried to sell as regular UAVs.

The List with the unrelated videos has 1192 entries.
Most are Videos of Rockets being fired or Mortars.
