April 3, the Ukrainian media (source: RBC Ukraine) reported that the commander of the 1st Assault Battalion of the 3rd "Azov" Assault Corps said that the Russian army is preparing for a large-scale offensive in April. He said that Russia has 2 to 3 divisions training at the training ground for a month. Currently, Ukrainians' prediction of the time of the Russian army's offensive ranges from April to late summer and autumn.
The 6th "Ranger" Independent Special Forces Regiment of the Ukrainian Army was first found to have acquired the American M1297 all-terrain high-mobility off-road vehicle. The Ukrainian authorities did not announce its transfer situation.
The photos released by the Ukrainian army also showed Kirpi and International MaxxPro armored vehicles equipped with Sich combat modules, as well as BMP-1 infantry fighting vehicles.
This regiment belongs to the Ranger Brigade, has the status of a heavy brigade, and is equipped with T-64BV tanks and electronic warfare systems besides armored vehicles and infantry fighting vehicles.
Therefore, this unit now has its own fire support and does not need to request equipment from the Ukrainian Army when necessary.
