2/11 π·πΊ defenses for the airport are located along the HWY M14 from Kyselivka to Chornobaivka. It's a 3 line indepth defense starting with a small forward pos.,larger extended trench works and finally the large and heavily defended airport compound.
3/11 Forward pos. is located @ gas station on the M14 entry into Kyselivka.Since end july this pos. was left by π·πΊforces due to daily heavy shelling. It seems last week they pushed back πΊπ¦ forces here & took the pos., last unconfirmed news is πΊπ¦ have re-taken the pos. on the 31st
4/11 2nd line is located W of the M14 near Klapaya.The trenches here have been established end of may,but have been extended and re-inforced in recent days. These trenches are most likely manned by VDV troops.also a larger number of armored vehicles are dug in in the treeline.
5/11 Finaly the most extensive defenses have been setup in the former Kherson airport.This is a vast complex of 7km2. Around the edge defenses are setup by π·πΊ forces, these consists of trenches, dug-in MBT's&BMP's. These are most likely manned by VDV troops.
6/11 The defensive works are concentrated on NE side of the complex mainly along the M-14 highway. Here are at least 16 MBT's and BMP's are dug in behind an earth wall, around this area are trenched coverd with metal plates at certain parts to provide cover against shrapnel.
7/11 just behind the gas station on the highway, were the actual airport starts, a trench complex was dug as a forward position. Here we find less armor and is likely manned by infantery with AT capability. Here again we can find some trenches covered as extra protection.
8/11 The same can be seen on the NW & SW edges of the airfield, but the main concentration of vehicles can be seen in the center near the main airport building, which was destroyed early in the war. This area is also where heli pads are located to bring in supplies.
9/11 Another part of the airport contains what is most likely an EW complex, it consists of 12 directional antenna's with a vehicle in the middle,it's located on the area where before the war,the comms array for the airport was located.This might be a "Torn" & "Taran" EW complex
10/11 located SE of the airport on the entry way from the M14,the VDV hq is located.This heavily fortfied complex was hit last week by a probable #HIMARS attack,in which allegedly 100+ troops inc. high level staff were killed, de grading C&C capability
11/11 concluded can be that the π·πΊ defenses are aimed on an attack from the direction of Kyselivka along the M14 highway.Least defended area seem to be on the W/SW side direction of Bilozerka
