Description: Patch of the 47th separate mechanized brigade "Magura" of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Manufacturing method: embroidery Dimensions: D 80 mm ( 3,15 inch) Fastener: velcro The symbol of the brigade is Drakin (a hybrid of a dragon and a horse). It comes from the concept of a chess knight that acts out of the box, stepping over other pieces. A circle with spikes symbolizes a shield. This unit was by most accounts the first Ukrainian combat formation to receive foreign tanks, and of all the units listed in the Pentagon-sourced Discord leak papers as possible elements of the upcoming offensive, the 47th has had the longest time to train and prepare. The 47th is a regular army unit with recruits coming from Kyiv, Dnipro, Odesa and Lviv. It started the war as a separate assault infantry battalion, was designated to be a full-on brigade in Nov. 2022, and according to news reports its soldiers by 2023 had amassed a good deal of combat experience, fighting primarily in the Donbas sector. In Ukraine’s high command picked the 47th to be the second army brigade to be filled out primarily with green soldiers trained first in Britain primarily by Commonwealth nation instructors, and as the offensive kicks off probably lacking combat experience. The unit’s commanders and senior soldiers are almost certainly combat veterans. The key weapon of the 47th is the US-made Bradley infantry fighting vehicle: a fast, mobile and heavily armored personnel carrier able to go toe to toe with most Russian tanks, and specifically designed to chew up enemy defenses be it infantry in trenches or buildings, combat vehicles. By some accounts, the most powerful infantry fighting vehicle not just in the war but in any army anywhere, is the US-manufactured Bradley. The brigade’s own press officers have enthusiastically posted images of Slovenian T-55s and American M2 Bradleys in training. According to the Discord leak papers, fully 99 Bradleys are or will be assigned to the 47th, arguably making it the brigade – admittedly not fully combat experienced – the combat unit with the most battlefield firepower on either side in the war. There is a hard Velcro on the back of patches (chevrons). This will help to fix the chevron on a military uniform, other clothes, a backpack, a baseball cap and other tactical products, where there is a place for such an accessory (soft Velcro). Thanks to it, if necessary, the patch (chevron) can be easily removed and moved to a new place. The color shade of the product may vary slightly from that shown in the photo, including this depends on the monitor settings.
