Russia is losing about 6,000 more troops in Ukraine each month than it can recruit, western officials have said.
While Russia is still acquiring new battlefield recruits at speed, with an estimated rate of 1,000 a day, in the last two months even this has not been sufficient to replace those killed or injured.
How many soldiers does Russia have at the moment? I.e. how many would -6k a month be. When should this mean that they would be stopping the advances?
It has what it sends forward. Training from sign up is measured in days to weeks and then you are frontline.
They are said to be mobikising 300k. Currently it is likely they have emptied prisons, black sites and recruited foreigners under false pretences ad are accepting full divisions from NK.
I’ve invented a machine that turns wealth into poverty! I called it WAR!
Ayyo. Why your gif have a fuckin crypto ad baked into it?
Probably out of a discord gif selection, I’ve seen it come up there before. Some sort of Guerilla marketing campaign that probably outlived the crypto scam.
Because everyone is a sellout piece of trash.
And Ukraine needs 30k/month aka the same recruitment rate. All those poor men flung into a needless war. May Ukraine survive and come out victorious!
Do they? Defenders traditionally only need 1/3rd the manpower of the attacker.
From what we know loss ratio is more like 1:6-1:10 in this war.
Ukraine uses strategies that minimise human losses while russia does the opposite.
dies the opposite, indeed
That’s what they’re saying (discussion).
Interesting, thanks for the source.
That’s a good average for historical wars. We don’t have much data on defenders with flying grenade robots against a foe that relies on meat waves. Hopefully we never do again.
