Why are you surprised Russia does not have night vision capability?



Ukraine has attempted at least 10+ night time attacks during the counteroffensive and not one of them has been successful. Russians must be nocturnal I guess

According to the US and NATO observers and advisors that I have talked to. Not only is the average Iraqi insurgent or Taliban fighter better equipped than the average Russian soldier today, the average Soviet soldier in Afghanistan in the 80s as better equipped than the Russian soldier in Ukraine. When are y'all going to realize just how bad the Russian army really is? Russian soldiers are wearing foot wrappings with writing on them saying that they were made in the USSR. Corruption in Russia is so bad that the Russian army cannot even keep its soldiers in socks because 80-90% of the money allocated for the Russian army is stolen by everyone from Putin down to lowly purchasing officer.


It's insane how many casualties Ukraine has taken while fighting this third world army.

Can you provide links or personal experiences to back up your claims?

Do you ever make a good point or is it just emoting and snark all the way down? The OP has claimed, and I'm sure can verify, that he has worked in Ukraine in field hospitals (I think, as he's a doctor), and thus already has a specific bias. A normal person who is literate about how to include sources into a larger framework of evidence can include this information and compare it to other information to test the strength of the specific claims. You have to be proportion belief to the evidence on hand. Instead what you do is give us the most retarded emotional reaction, which also allows you to avoid any wrestling with the claims at all.

Here's a link about Russian night-vision issues from July of 2022 from a decent YT channel. LINK
