[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Meh.....they sent in a bunch of teenagers and early 20s somethings (kids) conscripts with crappy supplies and weapons to serves as fresh meat to be turned into ground beef.  They were used to soften up the Ukraine.  [b]Russia's advanced weaponry and elite divisions till haven't really been deployed yet.[/b]  People shouldn't get confident at all that Russia has been 'struggling'.  They are just getting warmed up, so I wouldn't extract a whole lot from the first week of combat. [/quote]

That is simply not true.

The Russians went begging to China, with PGMs at the top of their list.

If you knew anything about the conflict, PP, you would know the Russians used up most of their stockpile of PGMs in Syria.

Lacking sufficient PGMs, they have resorted to using their short and medium-range ballistic missiles, such as the Iskander instead.

They even “tipped their hand” by revealing a previously unknown Iskander with up to 6 countermeasure decoys against wester anti-missile systems (we have those now, and can improve our own systems - thanks!).

There have been some conscripts- yes - but there were also paratroops, who the Ukrainians wiped out, along with 4 generals.

And Russia won’t count the 4,600 Vagner “contractors” (mercenaries who are ex-elite military) wiped out by Ukraine.[/quote]
