I'm sorry Starstreak: Russia loses four, possibly up to 6, helicopters in 20 minutes.

Looks like they were KA-52s and some additional research suggests a few Starstreak kills.

You know, that even before the invasion, you could buy fuel of them for booze??. Remember those fuelless tanks in the beginning?? Russians being Russians. Anyways.

        I've heard rumours from volunteers that flares sometimes work on 2nd generation stingers too, and that the anti-missile laser also burns out their sensors, so they only fire stingers at heli's two at a time.
        In fact you'll notice nearly every new manpad video is usually two missiles at once to bypass the laser defence.

        That is not what it says. That is comparing Russian losses to what was committed at the beginning of the invasion. Obviously Russia did not commit all 3500 of there operable tanks to the invasion, that would have required almost 10% of the invasion force to be tank crew, never mind the Loggies and Mechanics needed to support the tanks.
        Likewise, Russia did not commit their entire fixed or rotary wing aircraft forces to the invasion.

        Because Russia is too stupid to back off, sue for peace, and lick their wounds, and they keep committing material and blood to the theater to make good their losses, they will eventually loose more of everything that they invaded with than they invaded with.
        Including dignity.

        Also it seems that they don't have that great of a strategic level bombing capabilities for the Ukrainian theater, their bombers would suffer unaceptable losses and their missiles aren't that accurate and get intercepted at a considerable rate as well, as for indirect ground fire from arty and MLRS, they require them to close the distance, which they did for a while before the lines collapsed.

        The general crux of it all was the FSB 5th service had sabotaged and bribed all the relevant authorities into not fighting, so the worst they expected was some malcontent in the western half of the country, some rioting and angry soldiers in the east. Run in there, capture/kill Zelenski and the rest of the country rolls over and learns its place. So the rest of the force was really just there as a 'show of force' that wasn't really expected to see much more than some rocks thrown at their BMP's.

        That illusion ended pretty much immediately, but it was tracking on-time until Day-2 when the wheels fell off the whole fricking debacle and it spiralled into a complete shambles
