Probably 80% of their actual professional soldiers were in the original invasion force, and considering the casualty rate they sustained there's not many of them left in fighting shape
insane globohomosexual bootlicker cope, anyways are you forgetting that It is nearly 100% in DNR hands other than a few Azov nazi holdouts. Vidoes on telegram show DR troops removing Kiev regime symbols from public buildings already. The damage is much much lighter than western propaganda has claimed.
I mean it is kinda embarrassing to get air strikes by an airforce that didnt exist for months. It'd be like the US getting strafed by Saddam Mig-29s during the battle of Fallujah
how do they manage to make us look so based? Putin, the moronic toddler incapable of invading the most depressed country in europe vs the western military behemoth
More VDV who are merely uptraining now they've been victorious in combat. They proved their airmobile APCs work superbly in armored spearheads (NLAWs just bounce off and blow away some of the mud), diving from helicopters makes beach assaults fast and easy, and validated what we all knew in the first place, that Shoigu makes Guderian look like a skinny on khat by comparison.
Russians can thank hard training with frens (like their ANA advisers who teach "dispersed retreat" and "stealth exfiltration") for their brilliant, heroic combat performance.
I mean they didn't have that many too begin with. Most contract soldiers are just people who couldn't avoid conscription so thought they might as well enlist, serve an extra year and at least get paid for it. Then they leave. Some guy with 1-2 years military experience from an army which only knows how to train conscripts is hardly elite.
After the above point Russia never changed its way of conducting war when introducing contract soldiers. It's still exactly the same as before. No initiative wanted from junior ranks, no NCOs. All it means is Sergai the driver-mechanic spends years upon years driving his IFV with no other training or progression required. Supposedly that was supposed to mean that Sergai would be better specifically at driving (or any other role a soldier might be recruited into) than a western soldier. Even if it meant he lacked in every other way. Hazing, alcoholism and corruption meant that never the system never worked as intended (and probably wouldn't have worked either).
The only bits of Russia's military apparatus which had some semblance of professionalism was Spetsnaz & VDV. Neither were close to comparable to western equivalents. VDV really just being ok infantry. They both to took massive casualties in the first month's of the war, to the extent of no longer being functional organisations.
Funny thing is that the BTG system means that brigades (which are mixed contract/conscript) group all their contract soldiers into the BTG and leave the brigade just with conscripts. Many brigade were so undermanned anyway that infantry units are functioning as armoured car units as they don't have any dismounts. It also means that formations have lost all their contract soldiers - there is no one left to train more soldiers.
I think this war still has some legs on it, I am not convinced that this will be over by Christmas. But Russia has irreparably destroyed what strands of competence that it had.
>I am not convinced that this will be over by Christmas.
have you seen the pace of this counter offensive? Even Strelkov only gives Russia until the end of october before complete collapse
They are still advancing through Kherson (broke through Davydiv Brid today), massing troops near Zapzap/Melitopol (pic related, also vatniks are panicking about it), and are also making progress near Lysychansk area (Russians said Ukraine liberated Belogorivka, Luhansk today)
>broke through Davydiv Brid today
amazing. only 2 months after they broke through davydiv brid the first time. and only 3 weeks after they broke through davydiv brid the second time.
Ukranian troops are having severe difficulties with temporal anomalies generated by ill-concieved Russian incursion in Chernobyl. I imagine when Ukranian troops reach Chernobaivka they'll simply have to quarantine it.
putin is a little baby pissing and shitting himself, NATO and the US MIC are 6 foot tall and 10 foot tall trannies (respectively) capable of terrorizing and murderfricking the helpless special needs baby putin at the slightest provocation
One. Two.
Idk, at least one probably
Do they not update the bots?
you tell me
wtf a russian tank commander just flew over my house
bout tree fiddy
Probably 80% of their actual professional soldiers were in the original invasion force, and considering the casualty rate they sustained there's not many of them left in fighting shape
yeah they're definitely around

Israel is giving Ukraine missiles and anti-drone systems
Why call us out randomly?
I have just now realized the lousy attempt at the bottom trying to provide a source

Wow and this image is from the end of March, it must be 600% by now!
Just wait until the VDV escape from that elevator, you won't be laughing any more HATO pigdog.

Steinerkov's 3rd Corp should be sufficient for the counter attack.
>Competence?
>putin diaper full of shit and piss
well they got one thing right
However many there were, then divide that by 2.
I love the cuck logic that Putin is somehow entitled to put 40 million people under his boot just because.
Nice lineart job
>MFW
I've been relegated to "ETC..."
I don't get it.
Putin is a baby and as with all babies, we should let him throw a tantrum and destroy all his toys

Kiev falls in 2 weeks
