Time and money required here. But there is at least a third ingredient that is required - caring.Of course the system in the US that saves lives today has been evolving for 80 years. It's much more involved than just having the personnel there. The Russians seem to think they can get the survival rates the US does with more people on the job. They don't have the infrastructure the US has and there is zero chance they can put it together.
More personnel will save some lives but won't approach American levels of survivability.
They don't place a high value for human life (unless you are one of the elites in the kleptocracy). Dead soldiers don't need expensive, often lifelong physical/mental health care that continuously reminds others of the costs of war. Best to ignore them/let them die quickly and tell your population to keep quiet else go to prison.
