"Samara" told Sputnik on Monday how his unit destroyed five foreign-made Ukrainian armored vehicles in ten minutes. They reportedly took out a German Leopard tank, two Bradley BMPs and an American MaxxxPro and a Turkish Kirpi.

"Just recently, when there was a tough offensive on the Orekhovsky front, in one flight we fired five out of six missiles in ten minutes, destroying one Leopard tank, two BMP Bradley, two combat armored vehicles of the enemy - MaxxPro and Turkish Kirpi", "Samara" said.

According to him, the unit entrusted to him was finishing duty and was planning to return when intelligence reported that Ukraine Armed Forces was building up an accumulation of armored vehicles near Orekhovo in the direction of Rabotino. Everyone who was on duty at the time was given the combat task of stopping the enemy's vehicles.

"As soon as possible we took combat readiness, flew on helicopters along the route, took all their points on the coordinates of the waiting area, the zone of duty and waited for further instructions. As soon as we received a command from the command post, from the air spotters that the enemy's equipment began to move to the southern direction, we received the coordinates of the movement of columns, everyone worked on their own targets, in their areas of responsibility. We received the coordinates, went to the combat and further carried out the systematic destruction of the enemy," said "Samara".
