    Ukraine’s making gains while Russia’s struggling, even resorting to bringing in North Korean soldiers. That just shows how desperate things are getting for them. If Ukraine keeps this up, no amount of imported troops is going to save Russia’s position.

      I think we’ll see more of this in the coming weeks due to the destruction of some of the main ammo storage locations.

      It will be a slow buckling… under the weight of everything combined… but it will take a long time still.

      But you already see Russia send out troops on motorcycle and golf carts as the number of armored fighting vehicles is getting to a point they don’t have one for each use case… but they still have plenty of bodies to throw at the problem.

      And in the mean time at home they are now thinking about how to replenish future generations…mandatory minimum family sizes will probably be attempted.
