Wengi wanona kuwa Urusi itaendelea kuona matatizo katika jeshi lake. Tukumbuke Putin alikuwa na makisio kwa jeshi lake mara 15 ya Ukraine: mwaka
2020 bilioni 61 kulinganishwa na bilioni 4 za Ukraine. Kwa pesa hiyo nyingi alipata nini? Alipaswa kukimbia Kyiv, alifaulu kusogea mbele mwanzoni kwenye pwani, sasa kwa kupoteza askari wengi anasogea mbele polepole sana katika Donbass, akitegemea hasa mizinga na grenedi za enzi za Kisovyeti.
Pamoja na hayo: vipuli muhimu wa silaha zake za kisasa alipata kutoka magharibi. Hapa sababu kwamba kifaru maarufu T-14 Armata hakifikii uwanjani.
Itakuwaje sasa?
Ona:
Is it true that in Ukraine, the Russian army is wasting more weapons and vehicles than the Russian industry can produce?

“Ukraine”
First, Russia is decades behind in advanced military electronic components and hopelessly relies on the West for those supplies for its heavy weapons. That is now a huge problem with the sanctions in place.
Russia is also losing weapons at a rate beyond its capacity to replace. Russia is visually confirmed, by video or photo evidence, to have lost at least 800 tanks in 120 days of the war.
The real losses is over 1,500 tanks destroyed or captured.
Russia cannot even manufacture 10 new tanks in a month and is losing like 200 in a month. That’s for tanks only.
Before invading Ukraine in February, the Russian Army was believed to be far stronger, much more effective, and technologically advanced. But in this war, the Ukrainian Army, despite being outnumbered more than 10-to-1 in heavy weaoons, has battered the reputation of Russia’s military.
