Military vehicles equipped with fresh tactical emblems detected within air defense precincts, attributed to the Russian armed forces.
In the ongoing Russian special operation in Ukraine, a new tactical symbol has been spotted on Russian military vehicles, according to various reports.
The symbol, resembling a square, was first noticed in the area of Berdyansk and later in the Zaporizhzhia region. A column of Russian military trucks bearing this new symbol was reportedly observed by the Telegram channel "Military Correspondents of the Russian Spring". Life.ru also reported the sighting of the new symbol on these trucks.
Similar to previous tactical symbols used by the Russian military, such as the Latin letters Z and V, this new symbol is believed to be used for quick identification of units and their tasks on the battlefield.
The use of tactical symbols is not new in this conflict. The Russian army had previously used a bat symbol as a tactical sign during the occupation of Berdyansk in the Zaporizhzhia region, which was first sighted in August 2025.
Interestingly, the use of the symbols Z and V has been banned by Ukrainian authorities on vehicle license plates. This ban applies to combinations and separate usage, as well as replacements in words written in Cyrillic.
The appearance of this new symbol may indicate the formation of a new tactical unit or temporary marking for coordinating the transfer of forces. However, further analysis is needed to confirm these speculations.
The location of the new symbol sighting remains in the Zaporizhzhia region, a region that has seen significant military activity in recent months. As the situation continues to evolve, it is essential to monitor such developments closely to gain a better understanding of the ongoing conflict.
