It makes sense. Dead to wounded ratio is generally 1:4. Last time the CIA estimated Russia casualties to be around 350k, which would signify roughly 70k dead.
If you have 20 minutes, I highly recommend this read:

Probably the best professional analysis from UK on attritional warfare in Ukraine.
Also if you are interested in air war...
You also have to consider the fact that it's not just Russia. It may trigger a foreign capital flight if they feel the West could seize their assets in the future. The Federal Reserve basically keeps the world's gold reserve in its vaults because Murica is the world's financier. It would cause...
They frozed it, but they are not actually taking that money yet. There is too much potential repercussion from such a precedent. Russia, on the other hand, actually took Murica's (and EU) shit because their financial credibility was garbage to begin with. This isn't the case with the US and the...
Even when Murica was fighting Nazi Germany in WWII, it was still paying interests to German owned treasury bonds and frozen assets. After the war, Murica was undisputed in its financial credibility and every country in the world started putting their assets there. The moment you start seizing...
Russia is not going to occupy the entirety of Ukraine and Ukraine isn't getting back any of the occupied territories.
Let's use the capture of entire Donbass as the goal post, which would mean a collapse in Ukranian defenses. We'll use pro-UA DeepStateMAP as reference rather than pro-RU...
Back in December last year I said Ukraine has about 8 months left and people got sand in their vaginas over it. Well the former head of UK armed forces is saying the same thing. So any of you gonna accuse him of being a paid Russian shill too?

Russia lost approximately 10% of its planes in the last 2 years, but their capabilities are largely intact.

Here is a major reason China can manufacture for extremely low cost and in high volume compared to Murica. They're absolutely all in on automation and eliminated large chunk of the labour cost. Robots don't complain, quit or demand breaks/vacations after the initial investment.
Muricans can...
It's literally the 2nd paragraph in the link, or do you just filter out anything that doesn't suit your narrative?
“We have assessed over the course of the last couple of months that Russia has almost completely reconstituted militarily,” said Deputy Secretary of State Kurt Campbell at an event...
Well you should probably call the Pentagon and tell them they're wrong then.
For the Blackhawk raid, you mean the GoPro footage retrieved from the body of a dead Ukrainian soldier a few days back?

Russia has largely rebuilt its army according to the Pentagon, several years ahead of schedule...
Essentially you're saying "do as I say, not as I did". It's actually very typical of Muricans after you lied, stole and cheated your way to the top. Now that China is using the same playbook, you get your panties in a bunch.
Funny thing is I'm actually okay with unscrupulous practices in...
