Strikes on Ukraine's Most Prized Assets Raise Alarm

"As Russia appears to enjoy a run of success targeting some of Ukraine's most prized
equipment, Moscow is reaping the rewards of both evolving tactics among its soldiers and the bite of military aid shortages in Kyiv.
Within approximately the last two weeks,
Russia has said its forces have destroyed a handful of Ukrainian-operated Abrams tanks and Bradley infantry fighting vehicles, and U.S.-donated HIMARS, or High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems. Russia's Defense Ministry published footage appearing to show a cluster munition strike on Ukrainian transport helicopters in eastern Ukraine. The apparently successful strikes on Ukrainian equipment Russia has doggedly targeted in quick succession likely reflects both an adapting Moscow and gaps in Ukraine's Western-dependent arsenal, experts have suggested."
