Ok, the US military in direct conflict in Ukraine would have to favor the Russian regarding:
1) logistics
2) troop morale
3) industrial capacity
4) fighting experience
Where does US have the advantage?
Military hardware? Our planes & pilots are better? How can we be so sure of this? Everywhere I read how sophisticated Russian air Defense is….
But would like to hear the counter argument

Never understood why he’s not using more air power. Just keeps sending his troops into the meat grinder like Stalin did. 1,220,000 total Russian military personnel lost (killed and wounded), based on the Ukrainian General Staff report. over a MILLION casualties. That’s crazy!

Never heard a number that big for Russian casualties.
I usually watch YouTube on this topic but I’m sure Col. MacGregor would dispute that number.
500,000 prob but over a million I doubt very much.

Alternatively, Putin is repeating the mistake of his predecessors by engaging in a protracted conflict that is bleeding Russia the same way Afghanistan bled the Soviets.

Regarding the clown comment. I’ll have to repeat myself….thats not an argument. Try using your intellect.
Regarding Russian air defense…..Russian air defense systems are recognised all over the world as being as good if not better than American.
Would you like me to post a link?
Or is providing evidence to support a position too much all in one post?
Regarding me being laughed at or downvoted…..thank God I couldn’t care less what the public thinks.
Are you vaxxed?

Putin doesn’t care. That guy enjoys killing people.
Thus why they don’t hesitate to “zero-out” their own troops to send a message to others. Over 100 confirmed cases of their own being tortured and killed by fellow soldiers.
A despicable man.

Where are you getting this information?

The war would be over if the US stopped funding Ukraine. Russia is gonna win and Zelensky will be 100% responsible for the deaths of 100,000+ Ukrainians for not accepting terms of peace.
lol at the pro Ukraine idiots on this board. Stop listening to the MSM. Russia has been kicking their arse for 4 years straight

Wow. The last point I made was regarding whether or not the Russian army had been attrited.
I see no evidence that this has happened.
What are you referring to about me bringing in the US military?
The post above mentioned what would happen if the US engaged.
My point is the US CANNOT directly engage w/o risking nuclear war. This will not happen.
Iran & Venezuela will not illicit a response from Russia but direct engagement by US forces against the Russian military in Ukraine would.
I dont think you made a very cogent point there.
The data about Russian losses of both men and materiel are pretty well established. I'm not hearing much about endless waves of Koreans much lately, either. I guess they are all gone, too.
The U.S. will not engage directly - for many reasons. First of all, we don't have to. That said, whatever Putin's end game is, it does not include self immolation, which is what he would do if he ever responds with nuclear weapons. It's bluster.
We likewise have no reason to go into Ukraine directly when Russia continues to bleed out by the day.
And every day this drags out hurts Putin more than it does Ukraine.
Ukraine will never quit. Russia may eventually win, but Ukraine will fight to the last man, and that guy will take 100 Russians with him.

They’ve suffered over a million casualties, over a quarter of which were KIA. This is estimated to be over 4x what the Ukrainians have lost.
Yeah, they’re slowly taking ground but they’re paying a disgusting price to do it.

Yes please share your North Korean “news link with the rest of us, by all means. I suppose you think the glorious nation of North Korea also has a stronger military.

Another fine example of how living in a media bubble can create a completely different reality, unrecognizable to those outside of the bubble.
It’s not just red vs blue. It’s a tactic used by the powerful for centuries.

Well, yeah, they've had to resort to conscription and they're in an active war. Our military got much bigger as well when it went to war in the early 2000s.
Thats kinda what happens when your country wages war. Guess the other country that has a bigger military when compared to 2022 numbers...Ukraine.
Stupid point is stupid.

Read this
-long article, need to scroll down to get the ranking but:
Russian systems have 3 in the Top 6…..including number 1&2.
Did this help?? Was that a North Korean publication?
Your casualty estimates are also way off. Would you like me to find something in that as well?
