[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It took the us 40 days to take iraq[/quote] As discussed above, they had a better army than it appears Russia is. [/quote] Correction to pp - Iraq had a better army than Ukraine and Russia. It is like we are watching Blue jello wrestle a paraplegic. Ukraine had no intention of fighting, but was better prepared than 2014. Ukraine does not have the cash for big weapon systems and obviously like 50% of Russias budget was embezzled.[/quote] Russia struggled to innovate a few domestic high-tech weapons (Like the T-90 tank), and get their military to adopt them. But the budgets to actually produce and field these modern weapons in any meaningful amount, were all stolen by the Oligarchs, and the $$ converted into Super-yachts and London penthouses. Hence, the majority of their army is armed with weapons left over from before 1989.[/quote]
