    >The scenario of the game assumed a plan for the defense of Eastern Poland against a Russian invasion through the Suwalki Gap. Polish Armed Forces were tasked with the defense of the region to the East of the Vistula River for 22 days with the use of all units at the disposal
    >The fulfilment of a new modernization program for the Polish Army was modelled into the wargame. It means that the new F-35 jet fighters, HIMARS artillery system, (...) modernized Leopard 2A4 brigade, and new Badger IFVs, were at the disposal of the defending side
    >With the original defense plan for the East, the Polish Armed Forces were unable to hold for the anticipated 22 days. Instead, on day 4 the Russian forces managed to reach the line of the Vistula River and encircle Poland’s capital, Warsaw. On the fifth day the remaining Polish forces left on the eastern bank of the river were virtually obliterated.
    >A similar scenario with a similar conclusion was conducted during the wargame conducted by Marine Corps War College in 2019. NATO forces were deployed in the same region and received similar tasks to stop the Russian invasion through the Suwalki Gap. As the outcome, after merely 72 hours the Polish Armed Forces received 75% losses and were incapable of conducting any further operations. They were practically drained defending the Suwalki Gap, with the Russian spearhead achieving a major blow.

    Back when nobody, not even military experts knew just how much of an incompetent bantustan Russia really is

      The hilarious part is slavshit weapons are actually decent, just not when used by Russians. I think there is an argument to be made that Ukrainians militarily carried both the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union.

        There's nothing wrong with losing in a wargame if you learn from it. There can be something wrong with winning a wargame if you don't take any lessons from it. Always think back to how the IJN did wargames before WW2 and they'd rule-lawyer themselves to win
        >Well technically x wouldn't have caused a loss in reality. Our superior bushido spirit would have prevailed. So I'll rule this a win.

        Take Ukraine and add Petersburg and maybe moscow (though I suspect Moscow was usually just the courtly intrigue capital of the USSR, so worthless for anything but bullying people) and the rest of Russia is functionally irrelevant.

        >slavshit weapons are actually decent, just not when used by chinks

        >slavshit weapons are actually decent, just not when used by armenians
        >slavshit weapons are actually decent, just not when used by slavshit

        Outside of WW2 I'd put more respect to the Arabs than to the Soviets in terms of combat efficiency. They lost, but their performance varied from somewhat decent to deeply flawed. Russia's has just been deeply flawed all around. Put it simply, if Egypt or Syria or Iraq were Russia all they'd do is just throw inordinate amounts of artillery at the enemy and call it a win

      That's only a part of the answer. But there are plenty of reasons to think that this whole thing was a setup to gain popular support for a massive procurement of military equipment. Just a couple of days after this thing leaked, the head of the ruling party said that he happens to be working on a new law that moves military spending out of the constitutional debt limit (Poland - on paper - cannot have a debt that exceeds 55% of GDP). This allowed for the current massive shopping spree, with Polish military buying out everything Americans and Koreans can offer.

      i heard the outcome of this simulation was made on purpose, to convince the government to increase military spending even further.

      i have no idea if thats true or horseshit, but i think this is absolutely plausible.

      thing is these wargames assumed russia had competent leaders and would use their cruise missiles and iskanders to take down air defenses and then commit SEAD, whilst their overwhelming artillery advantage would hammer poland defensive line, followed by tanks and ifv pushing in with anti air protecting them.

      Ofc none could predict russia would just shoot down some few radar systems, not commit all of their airforce on opening day and they would just congoline their entire land force causing a traffic jam whilst sending their paratroopers in alone to die in enemy territory holding a airport to eat artillery fire and the planes thats suppose to fly in gets shotdown.

        I mean overstating specific weapon systems is one thing but the fact that the entire Russian Army doesn't have a single forklift should have put many question marks on any invasion plans.

          Another telling story should have been that Russia did larger scale maneuvers than the West but those were just show events against static targets, meanwhile NATO has always trained force on force.

    Honestly for the longest time I didn't really put much effort into thinking about these kind of titles, but like... aren't all wargames supposed to be lost? They exist to highlight any and all sorts of shortcomings in your doctrine, so you're going to put yourself against every single possible odd. Heck, make the enemy know all your positions at any time, give them tactics that directly counter yours, let them perform every single strategy perfectly. It's unfair, but the point is to do your absolute best and see what could be improved.

    You can go the opposite and instead of using wargames as an utility to figure out what to improve, use them as a propaganda machine and always win them - that'll get you credibility and make everyone smile all around, but that experience itself is going to be worthless

        Russia embarrassed itself, Ukraine got enough military aid to conquer most countries on earth and is currently pushing them back.
        The only impressive thing here is the streak of incompetence by Russia. If China ever wins a war against a foreign power Russia might have a chance to catch up to them.
        But that doesn't make Ukraine particularly impressive either and we know the warsaw pact was hot garbage too.

    To be fair Poland has been doing everything to dig itself out of the hole they were left in after Warsaw Pact. Consider that only four countries took part in the initial invasion of Iraq - US, UK, Australia and Poland, even if Polish contribution has been mostly a handful of special forces and regulars only arrived for occupation.

    Wargames are used to gain funds. When you show that you need new equipment and more men to get the job done, you'll get funds.
