Options under consideration in the Ministry of Defence include sending a protected patrol vehicle, such as the Mastiff, or a vehicle like the Jackal, which can be used as a reconnaissance or long-range patrol vehicle. These could enable Ukrainian forces to push further forward towards Russian lines.
Nearly 750 armored vehicles purchased by the British Ministry of Defence to combat the threat of roadside bombs in Afghanistan are being axed from the Army’s force structure.
Mastiff, Ridgeback and Wolfhound armored fleets are to be pensioned off in the latest drawdown of vehicles under the Land Environment Fleet Optimisation Plan (LEFOP) by the British Army, MoD procurement minister Jeremy Quin told lawmakers this month.

These maps and publicly available material from all over the internet confirms...
Russia rolled into Ukraine and went about causing as much destruction, misery and death as they possibly could, and then turned around and ran away. They left hundreds, if not thousands of destroyed tanks, APCs, aircraft, helicopters and their own dead in their flight.
They are now digging-in in the east and south-east of Ukraine, hoping that the Germans and French will persuade Ukraine to "be happy" with what they have left because "it could have been worse"! Hopefully, a rearmed Ukraine will bleed the Russians dry and make them pay for their behaviour, and even liberate their stolen lands.
Russia, bringing destruction, rape, murder and orphanages to their neighbours for a hundred years.
