What the heck have they been doing this entire time? Surely they are outfitted with the best gear and are spared no expense, and actually have proper training, and so should be somewhat capable/noteworthy? I remember seeing a few clips early on of them picking off nighttime patrols with IR but I haven't seen any at all lately, and you would think they would be uploading that sort of thing all of the time for the demoralization it could cause.
They’re needed domestically in case of uprising
where were they during Priggy's march I wonder?
Or perhaps they were a paper tiger all along...
Those boots look like something you would get from your local church.

Attrited
They're all dead, all their professional troops are dead, or mostly dead. Now all that remains are mobiks and kidnapped men that are forced to serve. Soon, all will join the cube
I think a scattering of Marines, VDV, and Air Assault units remain. But not nearly enough to stop the Ukrainians.
The Ukrainians retain WAY more of their Spec Ops and that is a devastating advantage.
>spec ops give advantage
I’m not sure how you’d calculate their effectiveness compared to artillery, but consider that Ukraine is relying on squads to breach the front lines instead of platoons or brigades. We’ve seen videos of Alpha unit tank hunting a long while back, maybe they are still out there picking off patrols, sentries, and the first trenches to bring in bigger elements without resistance.
too busy putting on shows for kids
russians, all spectacle they are
the bear is the most highly trained guy in this video.

Meatgrinded all the dudes who were in before the war, just like the VDV. Now its a mobik filled mess, just like the VDV.

Dying mostly
I'm trying to figure out what those pieces are that are flying off of him once he gets shot, his gun maybe?
Probably bits of a radio of something if he's getting shot in the chest.
I always thought it was part of his face or jaw if he goes down holding his head
It’s his ear pro shattering, he got clearlty domed as you can see by him going down limb almost immediately.
Holy fuck. Is that chunks of his jaw flying away from his face?
>dies after dropping weapon
No Valhalla for him, then.
Guy looks like he's 18. Such a sad waste of life.
anyone have the original vid?
iirc they all died in Kharkiv in Feb/Mar 22
Dead. Turns out throwing hatches upside down doesn’t help you survive being spotted by a drone then being surrounded and pumped full of bullets while trying to perform an infiltration mission.
The units that were deployed in Ukraine died in the opening of the war, it cannot be overstated how much of a blunder the initial invasion was, the webm of the ukies walking around burned out Russian vehicles sums it up.
However, most of spetsnaz is not deployed in Ukraine, the dictator needs his spec ops for his wetwork.
Also, don’t forge that Russia also still has to combat domestic terrorism.
Who do you think makes people fall out of windows?
GUR ones are literally used as frontline infantry to plug the gaps
>Surely they are outfitted with the best gear
yeah, but they "prefer" to fight without it
Probably overextended to cover a lot of ground and getting chewed down to nothing
>What the heck have they been doing this entire time?
Krokodil mostly, also vodka and home rolled filter-less cigarettes
who wins: spetsnaz or grom
