Updated Figures on Russian Occupier Casualties

According to Главком: As of the morning of June 18, 2026, Ukraine’s General Staff of the Armed Forces has released the latest data on Russian military losses. This marks the 1,576th day of the full-scale war in Ukraine. According to the report, total Russian personnel losses have reached approximately 1,388,050, with 1,370 killed in the past 24 hours alone.

Equipment Losses

The destruction of military hardware also remains substantial. Russian forces have lost:

• 12,038 tanks (+5)
• 24,779 armored combat vehicles (+4)
• 44,240 artillery systems (+11)
• 1,877 multiple launch rocket systems (+3)
• 1,431 air defense systems (+4)
• 436 aircraft
• 353 helicopters
• 1,684 unmanned ground vehicles (+7)
• 357,589 drones (+1,996)
• 4,783 cruise missiles
• 33 ships and boats
• 2 submarines
• 108,425 trucks and fuel tankers (+431)
• 4,306 units of specialized equipment (+3)

Estimated financial losses from Russia’s cruise missiles alone amount to roughly $14.34 billion, based on an average cost of $3 million per missile. Drone losses are valued at approximately $10.66 billion, using a unit price of $30,000. Destroyed aircraft represent around $13.08 billion, while helicopters account for $5.29 billion.

Tank losses are estimated at $30.08 billion, assuming a median price of $2.5 million per tank. Artillery systems carry an estimated price tag of $66.25 billion, with each unit averaging $1.5 million. Armored combat vehicle losses are valued at $14.85 billion, based on a median cost of $600,000 per vehicle. Air defense system losses total roughly $21.40 billion, at an average of $15 million per system. Ships and boats are estimated at $1.98 billion, and submarines at $600 million.

The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine notes that these calculations are approximate, as only the General Staff holds the precise breakdown of destroyed equipment by modification.

These figures underscore the prolonged and intense nature of a conflict now exceeding four years. The substantial personnel and equipment losses documented by the General Staff highlight the severe impact on Russia’s military capabilities. The financial toll further emphasizes the economic burden on the aggressor nation, potentially affecting its ability to sustain future combat operations. For context, this war remains the largest conventional conflict in Europe since World War II, with both sides suffering heavy attrition.
