>According to recent studies, the combat fatality rate of U.S. forces in recent conflicts has been around 12%. In the Second World War, the rate was around 55%.

Why does the Russian military have such a high fatality rate for wounded soldiers? Don't they have CASEVAC?

          No, they're not, because they don't even have Tourniquettes. Have fun equipping your mobilized army when you don't have a ready industry, widespread corruption and a locked economy due to your own actions.

          and even the rebels express disbelief that their computers can handle it (and the movie, written in the 70s, was largely colored by 60s use of primitive missiles that locked on to the sun)

            Star Trek had the consultation of futurists and so was so inspired in its design aesthetic that we continue to see technologies and products introduced that build on its ideas.

            Star Wars has dudes in plastic clown suits standing in a line and blasting (inaccurately) at some homosexuals in bathrobes.

              It's fine. The only good crewmate character is Yang because he's unobtrusive and also really good at his job. The rest are forgettable or annoying. The gameplay itself is hampered badly by the fact you only ever get a single lance to play with, so you inevitably get pigeonholed into running four Atlases as your opposition gets more and more numerous. If you like Assault mechs this is exactly what you want, if you're like me and believe speed is life then it's a massive pain in the ass and you'll get diminishing returns in enjoyment once you're so deep into the campaign.

      It doesn't matter if the bullet was fired by a near peer adversary or a goatherder, it still does the same damage and the initial wound treatment is the same.
      Even if the Russians had air supremacy and the Ukrainians had zero air defense and zero artillery (not even mortars), the Russians would still take far, far, far longer to get the wounded to proper medical facilities than they should and the treatment once they're there will be ludicrously bad.

      Iraq was one of the largest armies in the world at the time, and with lots of combat experience from the Iran-Iraq war.
      The idea that the US would drastically change the way they wage war if the enemy was more of a peer than Iraq is dumb, they rely on air superiority cause it works, and all the tools available today like drones, high precision long range artillery and satellites make that even easier.

      about lack of body armor. Body armor protects vitals. Shots that hit areas not protected are more likely to be less mortal. So if Russian cannon fodder don't have body armor, more hits are likely to be mortal hits

        I had noticed this the first few weeks of the war, and nothing has seemed to really change.
        Typically people expected a lower mortality rate compared to injured(5:1 to even 17:1 in the case of the USA), while the Russian numbers seemed to be about 1.5-2:1 injured to killed which is astonishing.

        So the answer is just... no.
        They only try to evacuate pilots, for the most part.
        There are some cases where Russians try to rescue their wounded, but it's generally futile because they just don't have the medicine.
        We've seen a lot of drone footage where there's people on stretchers where others are being bombed... and the people on stretchers are just laying there dead, because they didn't have the medical training nor drugs and equipment to save them from normally treatable injuries.

            I had noticed this the first few weeks of the war, and nothing has seemed to really change.
            Typically people expected a lower mortality rate compared to injured(5:1 to even 17:1 in the case of the USA), while the Russian numbers seemed to be about 1.5-2:1 injured to killed which is astonishing.

            So the answer is just... no.
            They only try to evacuate pilots, for the most part.
            There are some cases where Russians try to rescue their wounded, but it's generally futile because they just don't have the medicine.
            We've seen a lot of drone footage where there's people on stretchers where others are being bombed... and the people on stretchers are just laying there dead, because they didn't have the medical training nor drugs and equipment to save them from normally treatable injuries.

            [...]
            Also this. Russians are often killing themselves or asking someone else to kill them after they're injured as they know it's hopeless.
            It's the logical end to Russian somber stoicism.

          A lot that WIA/KIA ratio among Vatniks in the first months of the war is a reflection of what they were getting zapped with.

          A shaped charge that punches through your tank or IFV's armor is going to leave the occupants just so much charred Spam in a Can...especially if your own fuel and armor create a secondary explosion.

            Yeah, early in the war a lot of the deaths were within vehicles. And those vehicles were being blown up with no survivors. 1 tank kill was generally 2 or 3 Russians killed. Those IFVs are so hard to get out of, and when those are ambushed it's everyone killed. They were also so far from a base and any hope of medical attention.

            https://i.imgur.com/mVzZhcC.png

            Consider if you will, for a moment, that these are the contents of a Russian IFAK.

            Having looked at these tourniquets many times... it just hit me that they're horribly ineffective, aren't they?
            Not just because I've seen Russians putting them on then still bleeding out in minutes, but just the design of them. When I think of all the other ones I've seen, they have a loop to pull leverage against to get them on tighter.

            Ironic how it's mostly ukies who discover mass graves of their own soldiers. But we never hear much about ukrainian loses, do we? We only hear "civilians killed, warcrimes, genocide!" even though you can clearly see uniforms on the dead bodies.

            Ukrainian losses have been acknowledged plenty of times, schizo. They're less than the Russians, and vastly more Ukranians are surviving their injuries.

              Fricking rubber band "tourniquets" are a fricking criminal joke.

              Men have been using tourniquets since at least Roman times, using leather thongs.
              In sea battles, they used lengths of marline on rolling wooden decks full of splinters and the body parts of guys that had been zapped by round shot.

              This is an old technology. Rubber bands? Frick me.

    One thing that sprang out of the US’ 20 year long slog in the middle east was a refinement of field trauma care. Then again, more dead soldiers in the US meant more bad PR so more emphasis got placed on saving the wounded. Russia’s never really cared since their mindset hasn’t evolved since WWII. In fact, they moronicly celebrate being cannon fodder within their culture. So why bother develop better battlefield treatment?

    and fyi the US fataility rate in WW2 was comparatively low because they had an exellent pipeline of front -> aid station -> field hospital.

    It dropped off because helicopters and the "golden hour" (or something like that). Basically, if someone gets clapped and its not instantly fatal, their chances of surviving are pretty good if you can get them on an operating table in under an hour.

    Due to the nature of most recent US wars, it was pretty easy to this because insurgents dont have AA nets at all. In a full blown conflict that number would tick up as you cant bring helos right up to the front so easily.

        Flying nape of earth and at night pretty much negates everything. But its hard, and its risky, and eventually you will take losses (like the Ukranians did)

          I remember listening to a few pro-Russian podcasts and they would be so perplexed about Ukies helicopters flying into Mariupol during encirclement. Whenever people in the chat said it was evacs, they would hand wave that off and say that taking that kind of risk just to get a seriously injured fighter was totally unrealistic. They couldn't even comprehend the idea of it.

      I think its a bad idea for the US to rely on helicopters. Those birds will get shot down and then you will get tossed in the back of a hmmv you wont even fit it alone

      All that shit works only in occupied derkastans where insurgents have no aa capability other than rpgs and aks.

        if anything, these wars prove that helicopters are so absolutely vital that they are worth the risk in deploying them
        if they are getting shot down the problem is lacking effective tactics and haphazard air cover, not the helicopters

        The answer is really apparent if you have any context... Russia is really bad at fighting wars, especially modern ones, and they're getting tabled by a nation that really has no right doing so, if you go purely by what is written on paper. Turns out when you don't take anything seriously and design your doctrine based on memes, you get bad results. If Russia survives this, maybe next time they'll realize that placing value on human life positively correlates to your ability to win conventional wars.

      Could be something to do with the Ukranians coming from a 1st world country where mobile phones are owned by everyone, while most of the russian conscripts have never seen a flushing toilet, let alone a phone. Out of the few that did manage to take them, many will lose them to higher ranks (stealing and selling them) or swapping them for basics like food.

      Russia might lose it's entire male population. But that is fine because the dead cannot feel pain, anguish, or regret. Just think about all of those poor Ukrainian men that will have to live with the trauma of war. Think about the PTSD nightmares they will suffer when they remember how they had to personally kill 100 Russian soldiers and bury them in mass graves without a proper funeral service. My heart goes out to those poor men, nobody should have to live with the deaths of so so so many men on their conscious.

      You have an odd definition of winning.

But you're still conscious so it counts.
