Yes Russia certainly has satellites and recon drones - however in far fewer numbers and far less capable then those we have in the West. It is obvious that Russian wheel/track-based field electronic and other data collecting capabilities are near to zero.
The concept of BTG's is to operate independently of being resupplied for a period of 2-4 days. (for so called break-through operations and rapid territory gains). IMO Russia has lost approx. 50% of it's initial deployed BTG's. There are since July/August, no recognizable BTG related actions on the Russian side. But simply ill trained, ill equipped and ill motivated infantry grunts sitting out trench and urban warfare. Actual infantry assaults are in vast majority conducted predominantly by Wagner-troops, left overs of the Russian elite forces, and specialized (urban warfare experienced) forces of the Donbas/Luhansk Militia. - the Russian composition of troops might very well change for a certain period starting off from February/March.
That there are huge ammo stores - (mostly dispersed after the initial HIMARS deployment) - and broken up into smaller units/depots is simply a necessity in regards to keeping the still massive Russian artillery assortment running.
Russia has no real proven success at all in regards to having taken out or decimated e.g. Ukraine's artillery capability, weapon system collection points or e.g. ammo depots- because they are clearly 'blind" in regards to this issue - As you surely are aware, one doesn't need satellite input or state of the art recon data to target a power-plant or other large infrastructure objects - a simple map (even ten years old) is good enough to fire missiles that are nowhere close to the precision and guidance systems of Western missiles.
Six month? .... what makes you say that? all that promised stuff (e.g. tanks) and in the comming month further granted/extended additional equipment (e.g. aircraft) isn't going to be available in respective numbers before autumn/winter this year - whilst in the same time Russia is also upping it's efforts.
Taking the Russian military mindset and their technical capabilities into account, this war will last as long as Putin finds a way to recruit cannon-fodder - as such for many years to come. Putin is simply betting on a collapse of Western support - e.g. change of governments, and/or a collapse of Ukraine's internal political stability in given time, to achieve a gain in this ridiculous war.
Even if Russia should occupy half or all of Ukraine - they will never attack a NATO member - (That is why Putin opted to attack Ukraine on Feb. 2022 in the first place - knowing very well that once Ukraine is a NATO member he couldn't do anything about that). Further more the Ukraine war has clearly demonstrated to them and everyone else, that Russia is no match at all to NATO in a direct confrontation. they never had been - not even during the cold-war and especially not from 1970 onwards.
Also I am convinced that if Ukraine should fail militarily to secure at least 50% of it's territory - NATO will opt for a direct involvement. The present US administration has invested far too much already into this ridiculous war, trying to destroy Russia's economy and present political structure - then to just simply back away and subsequently loosing/endangering it's necessary support by it's "allies", towards their ultimate goal "China".
sashka, you are a war criminal, by the way, economically for how long your empire can run this freak show ?
Yes,
This assault team of armored vehicles was destroyed by a combination of mines and artillery....
And mostly because these Russian troops are not sufficiently trained...they made every blunder possible. There were those who literally abandoned their posts on foot until the handful of seasoned soldiers tried to do the same. (Which got most everyone killed)
Poor training, poor leadership for putting poorly trained troops on a mission they had no competency in...and now they have lost a LOT of equipment because of it.
This is why you don't put FNGs in situations like this.

from Moscow side :
Appalling...that is not the behavior of an even minimally-trained and led military force. Absolutely no fire discipline whatsoever. Spray and Pray. That is beyond incompetent; its just stupid.
Moscow MEGA OFFENSIVE HAS BEGUN - WITH DEVASTATING CONSEQUENCES FOR THE Moscow
ARMY || 2023
One of the good things coming from this war is that Russia is going to be so poor and spent that they won't have any resources left to attack Poland or Slovakia or Azerbaijan or.....Luckily for Ukraine and NATO that is indeed the case - and as I had pointed out, it wasn't any different (except the numbers) during the cold war. Russia's utter lack in every field right down to it's deplorable NCO qualifications within it's Armed Forces, can't conduct and even less survive modern warfare.
The UAF overall aren't really much better till now - however NATO's involvement steadily increased since 2014 in regards to general and modern military training methods and is now paying off for Ukraine. By mid 2024 (aside from corruption issues), IMO the UAF will be on par with NATO's methodical and tactical standards.
I guess even after this ridiculous war is over, we will never get to see the true figures for any side.Will the US and Ukey Nazis be desperate to surrender now ?
Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Valery Zaluzhny secretly informed the United States about the deaths of 257 thousand soldiers of the Ukrainian army.
From my former colleagues in the Intel Community: “When Zaluzhny was in the US, he met with Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and General Milley. He secretly told them that Ukraine had lost 257,000 military troops since the beginning of the conflict."
Reports from inside Ukraine as of Sunday, 5 February 2023, indicate UKRAINIAN CONSCRIPTION AGE LOWERED TO 16

And if Moldova can get their heads on straight...they might start being less cozy with Russia.
Congratulations
