Pretty accurate thread as far as I can tell. Russia lost four airplanes in the Lyman-Oskill River front. The RUAF is taking some chances trying to defend the front there. The situation is changing daily.

1. It sounds like Russia's biggest problem right now is lack of manpower?

The RU cannot hold the line with artillery alone.

We can see why Putin is conscripting everyone he can.

2. Check out the Trent Telenko thread I just posted on mobilization.

The Russians never had enough bodies to fight a real war in Ukraine. Now the situation is many times worse than March.

3. Putin is waging a meat grinder war, not a brilliant strategic or tactical one.

He has the third largest military in the world and could have done much better.

Everything has been sloppy, lazy, poorly planned.
And Putin vastly underestimated his enemy.

4. Thanks, I will take a look.

5. Seems like majority of newly "conscripts"......

will be quickly trained in the art of soldiering or put it fairly, warm bodies for the kill. Apparently Russians who have escape the horrors of the draft to other countries will know the truth and hopefully relay such back home. Can the Russians raise up against the dictator?

6. Watch "Enemy at the Gates" for one perspective

On Soviet Red Army training. I don’t know if it’s completely accurate, but it rings true today.
