A couple of assessments of the Russian army.
I wasn't aware of the thieves who prey on the military, including the nuclear weapons guys. After reading this my odds that their nukes work have gone from 50/50 to about 15%. Though with nukes any odds above 0.0% is too high.
This from the start of the war, but it talks about the structure of Russian forces
Composed of Tanks, Infantry, and Artillery, Russia's Battalion Tactical Groups Will Tackle War With Ukraine
And this video is their VDV (elite airborne forces in action):
I can't find it now, but there was video a few days ago of a Ukrainian recon squad on patrol. They took fire and acted exactly like you'd expect the Americans or British to act. They covered each other and made an organized, well covered withdrawal. The complete opposite of this clown show.
Here are the losses the Ukrainians claim have been inflicted on the Russians thus far:
Maybe it's on the high side, but if true, 30% of Russian BTG vehicles have been destroyed. The bulk of the tanks and armored personnel vehicles are in the BTGs and they had a bit over 6000 involved at the start of the war. They've lost just shy of 2000. That's staggering losses.
