A 'hero' Russian world champion in an international tank warfare competition was killed when he was sent by Vladimir Putin into a real battle in Ukraine.

Bato Basanov, 25, from Buryatia, was in a record-breaking tank biathlon team that performed last year in war games in front of defence minister Sergei Shoigu and chief of the army general staff Valery Gerasimov.

But his conflict ended in death when his tank was hit in Ukraine.

He is the latest of dozens of men from his impoverished region some 3,500 miles east of Moscow to be killed in Putin's war.

As two bereft mothers in grief-stricken Buryatia spoke about collecting the bodies of their sons, one reportedly said to the other: 'You're lucky because your son's body arrived intact. Mine came back as a head and two hands.'

Basanov, a corporal, had been hailed last year for 'glorifying Russia by becoming a world champion in tank biathlon as part of his team'.

Uniquely, he shot without missing a single target at speeds of up to 50mph at the Alabino training ground in Moscow region.

Yet as a report from Volya Media said: 'The death of Bato Basanov is grim confirmation that tank biathlon and real war are completely different things.'

Russian commanders Shoigu and Gerasimov saw regular tank biathlon competitions as key military prestige events, yet the huge death toll of Russian forces shows they were not ready for real war.

Basanov — whose Russian T-72B3 team beat soldiers from 19 countries in combat games including China — was shown being presented to Gerasimov, now in charge of Putin's flailing war effort.

Yet an anonymous Russian military expert has blamed Putin's government for botched modernisation of tanks, leaving them worse in optics and targeting technology than Ukraine's older tanks which were upgraded with Western equipment.

'Combat training in [Russian] tank units is disgusting,' he added.

The 'shortcomings' have led to Russia's dismal performance in the war, he said.

Basanov was a gunner of the first company of the tank battalion of the 37th separate guards motorised rifle brigade of the Russian Air Defence Forces.

The body of the 'hero' took seven weeks to be retrieved and returned to his family for a funeral on Friday

His friends and family said in a joint statement: 'Bato was an open, responsive, very sociable man, a faithful comrade and friend, who was always ready to come to the rescue.

'Cheerful, smiling and sincere, Bato has always been the pride of our family, a kind, honest, much-loved son.'

Meanwhile, Vladimir Putin has suffered the loss of his 38th colonel in the war in Ukraine as the Russian top brass toll worsens.

Lieutenant Colonel Fyodor Evgenievich Solovyov, 44, died in the Donbas, according to reports in his homeland.

His death was revealed as the Russian armed forces today rehearsed in Moscow for Monday’s vast military parade on Red Square marking the end of the Second World War.

Solovyov was commander of the howitzer self-propelled artillery regiment of the 127 motorised rifle division.

He was buried with full military honours and a triple volley of guns in Chunaki village, Penza region.

A Russian report said: “He died as a hero on the territory of the Donetsk People’s Republic.”

Details were not given as to how he was killed but he was posthumously awarded Russia’s Order of Courage.

Nine generals and 38 colonels have been killed since 24 February in Putin’s war according to known statistics, although Russia has not come clean on total fatalities.

Reports have claimed that the US has offered intelligence to Ukraine to help target high ranking commanders, destroying morale in Russian forces.

Solovyov’s death was disclosed four days after the 37th known colonel to die in Ukraine - Lt-Col Eduard Dmitriev - was reported to have been killed.

Dmitriev, 44, a tank commander, was buried in his native Kirov region.

Theory v practical.

Nairaland will only be announcing to us how the Ukrainian forces are destroying the Russians.

Is as if the Russian forces went to war with toy guns, nails and hammers.

Wow!

be careful, the reason these UK media are publishing these stories even if na true or false, is just propaganda to cause unrest in russia !

kingthreat:


On the bolded, I have a fulltime job. Just come here to past time when work gets to hectic.

Wondering why the death of a corporal is of so much joy to you.

It's the death of Putin n your eternal disgrace that ll suit the sane minds.
I don dey watch you on Ukraine issue.
You are evil for supporting evil Russia.

Is he Chinese?

I guess China who happens to be an ally of Russia also wants their media to cause Unrest in Russia abi?

No be only Propaganda. I guess China has joined the propaganda wagon

The biggest lesson from this war is that the days of tanks being a decisive weapon in a real war is over. Tanks which were the main weapon of the German Blitzkrieg tactics of WW2 is now useless. Thanks to the javelin

If there is one thing I hate in this world. It is war. This is a very sad report

HeightsKE:
Is he Chinese?

Some of the territory of Russia encroaches into former Chinese territory. Under the Amur Annexation in 1858 China ceded some of her territory to Russia and this is how crossbreeding began producing Chinese looking Russians.

However they live in some of the poorest parts of Russia.

Really! So Daily Mail are in Russia, always giving details as if they are at the war front counting dead Russians. I am not in support of anybody here, this news is fishy and only fools will believe anything this British media is saying.
A news media that is hiding in kyiev is giving count of dead enemies is unbelievable, it's like Sun newspaper telling us what is happening in Libya when Libya was under attack by UN. The whites always have a way of manipulating people to believe and see what they want u to believe and see.

And so what?
Him no be military man?

Western reporting is very funny! So, Ukraine kills top Russian commanders per second billing yet Russia has never killed any Ukrainian commander? The West is very funny. Very very funny. Everyday, I laugh at those who believe the West!
