How much of that artillery was made in the last 40 years? How much of that artillery was stored properly when the Soviet Union fell and how much of it just got stuck out at a Siberian storage site? How much of even that was left after Soviet supply officers had their own personal fire sales to line their own pockets when it all went in the shitter for the hammer and sickle? I get the sense that if Russia had such more armor and artillery power to bring to the field that they would have done that months ago while the world laughed at them for getting their shite pushed in by a much smaller country in Ukraine.

We are seeing more towed artillery losses for Russia vs self-propelled. For shoot and scoot u obviously want self propelled. The fact that Russia is heavy in artillery is a given but those numbers are mostly stockpiles of towed.

What they are short on is self propelled. Western donated artillery and smart munitions coupled with counter battery radar is currently an advantage for Ukraine.

Russia use of drones is their strength right now

Russia is suffering a greater level of attrition than Ukraine despite Ukraine being the side on the offensive. That is objectively illogical.


Can we go back in time and post this for the pro Russian trolls who are claiming 8:1 losses (Ukraine to Russia) despite Russia being on the offensive
