They have grandmothers, uncles, Aunts , Nieces sometimes even parents living in both countries.

China has huge investments in southern ukraine Russia and China will together rebuild the civilian and business infrastructure of the place. simple fact , Ukraine per capita GDP $3200( Pre military intervention, now expected to be halved) Russia $12000 and strengthening. Also in key Luhansk, Donestk, Kherson, Marupol DPR and LDR troops 40-70 thousand are front and center. So your claim of those fighting are not fighting for their homes is wrong.

Really ? So how do orders work ? Your more like administrator then giving direct orders and planning out the mission so the NCOs do most of the work like plan out mission and leading during the mission

@@youtubeoppressivecensorshi8047 More like, COs say what they want to happen (they must have unwavering confidence in their men), NCOs tell them if it's possible (they must know the limitations and morale of their men).

I used to be in the RAF and it was a widely held perception that the SNCO corps was seen as the backbone of the service. They were the ones who directly showed leadership and imparted discipline to their subordinates, whilst at the same time being experienced and grizzled enough to know what was possible and how best to achieve it. I imagine that translates pretty much the same to the Army.

I think even NCO's without combat experience but of that mature age would be helpful to combat units. Young men in their late teens and early twenties can just still be kids in men's bodies.

@@youtubeoppressivecensorshi8047 At the platoon and company level you, as a junior officer, are more of an administrator. Orders flow down from the President and the Joint Chiefs on down to the lowest private. The higher ups see a strategic mission, at the lower level that mission becomes more tactical. Younger, lower ranked officers are responsible for leading and learning from seasoned NCOs who have usually seen it all and are responsible for training everyone, junior officer and privates. It looks complicated but it is really rather simple. Without that NCO way back in the day who took that young officer and taught him or her what their job was you wouldn't have that General Officer sitting at the Pentagon developing strategic plans and operations and instilled in that officer is a regard for and care for those NCOs and privates they served with many years ago.

Precisely. Even if the most modest estimate of Russian tank loss is correct, by the end of the year, there will be no more Russian tanks. Despite the propaganda of 12K tanks, satellite photos show that the vast majority of them are rusted hulks.

@@khiem1939 actually that should be better in this regard... cause it doesnt have the explodium autoloader system in the turret. but - it would require extra loader person in the tank... and Russians dont have those spare either.

All true. In addition, Germany had a few other things to worry about. You could say this without disparaging the Soviet victories at all. Imagine if the Nazis didn't need to spend time and resources building the Atlantic wall, if they didn't need men and armor occupying France, Belgium, Norway etc., if they didn't need to hold back an invasion force on their western side. The Russians would have been facing millions more men, thousands more tanks, and total German control of the air.

Also USSR was supported by Allies with weapons and materials ....

@@martinmarusinec6204 It's true. About 10% of their materiel went up the Murmansk route.

especially when your army isn't even told it's an invasion until you're marching in to attack. there was critical deception and corner cutting at every level

Russia has the most nuclear weapons of any country, at 6,257. Of these, 1,458 are active, meaning they are already deployed, 3,039 are available (can be deployed if needed) and 1,760 are retired (out of use and awaiting dismantlement How do Russian nuclear weapons compare to the rest of the world?

The largest nuclear weapon ever set off, it produced the most powerful human-made explosion ever recorded. Russia's Tsar bomba: World's most powerful nuclear weapon of mass destruction. The Tsar bomba exploded about 4 km above the ground and reportedly produced a mushroom cloud 60 km high However, the Soviet Union developed three AN602 physics packages at 101.5 megatons (Mt) and these are more powerful than the Tsar Bomba, which was downscaled to 51 Mt before being used RDS-220 Vanya. it was modified to yield 50 megatons, which was estimated to be about 3,800 times the strength of the U.S. bomb dropped on Hiroshima during World War II The declassified study from the scientists at the Los Alamos laboratory, published in 1947 had first shed light on the question that how many nuclear bombs it would take to destroy the world. According to the study, it would take about ten to a hundred 'super nukes' to end humanity America Takes Women's Right Back To The Dark Ages

@@knowledge3563 I don't remember the exact quote. But it was during I believe the the Cuban Missle Crisis. John F Kennedy told Nikita Kruschev that the USA could destroy the world 14 times over Kruschev replied that the USSR could destroy the world only once.

@@germainprime4602 my friend russia have much bigger nukes and bigger bombs i not say this as a look at me i am so big i not care about it i posted what i new and it is all but now everyone want to try and show they bigger and better but what they for get is usa is backed by what nato 30 and russia just one and still noone fight fight from nato side and people trying to show power but see this all Your wallet’s gonna’ get a serious workout.. hehehe

once the NATO artillery arrive at ukraine a russian nuke will arrive at the US

Plus there’s probably no longer a cadre of competent veterans to train them.

Isn’t that how the US army works as well? What was the last engage of US Army against more or less adequate army ? Which army you compare the Russian army to - Germany? France? UK? Israel? How these armies are compared to an „equal enemy“? I think it’s way to early to justice the Russian army - nobody can tell at the moment how the war in Ukraine will end. Even the way less powerful villains in the world are causing a lot of damage right now for decades and either US or NATO can do anything about it. So may the Russian army be even weaker as seen (or rather reported) the faith of Ukraine won’t be any better, doesn’t matter how much stuff will be delivered to Ukraine from the West. The weakness of Russian army is mostly an argument for a tax payer to accept these immense costs for weaponry, delivered to a country, which nobody couldn’t distinguish from Russia even couple of months ago.

@@psworks6603 Not really relevant to the point: the Russian army has shown itself to be hugely incompetent.

Hey sean, dont care about dismissals ,your right about NCOs they are vital, the man must be able to keep men fighting with moral, and seize opportunities when they present themselves and have the authority to make the call right there without consulting higher-ups. So tell them to shut up cuz your right!

This is western propaganda. The actual figure from the Russians is that they suffered less than 3,000 soldiers who were killed in this conflict so far compared to Ukraine's 18,000 or more. We also have access to reliable information from other services. We do not need this propaganda, thank you.

I like to use this metaphor: If you had an architect build any building, it would crash down in no time. The architect knows how a building should be, he can calculate, and make important calls. But you need an experienced supervisor, who has seen common mistakes, who can lead on eye level with the workers. And nobody would even attempt doing it without a supervisor.

The Strength of the Russian Army is non existent. Their Commander in Chief his a LIAR!

haha US

Failed?? Where have they failed?? they control 20% of Ukraine and 75% of their seaports. Ukraine is ranked the SECOND most powerful army in europe and russia has only used old weapons. You better pray they dont bring out all their advanced weapons.

@@geeetube1 They have failed.They were forced to retreat from the Kyiv region which was their main goal due to heavy losses.that so-called 20% is misleading as well.The map since rtheir new offense isn't changing because Russia lacks the ability to gain large swaths of land for multiple reasons.They ALREADY occupied Crimea since 2014 and have only gained ground in the Donbas region.Karkhiv is the second largest city in Ukraine and next to the Russian border and they have not been able to capture it and lost ground around it.They have no chance to take the most important port city of Odessa and will not even try to take the city do to lack of manpower and equipment needed to do so.The T-90M tank came out in 2019 and is getting destroyed like their brand new Gator helicopters and their newest jets the Su-37 that have also been shot down.The newest flagship they had after the Moskvo sinking was the Markarov which was commissioned in 2017 and hit twice and out of commission.russia's elite airborne units got destroyed in Hostomel and even had a full airplane of them destroyed in the air.Their top soldiers the Spetsnav have been ran out of Irpin. Russia doesn't have the manpower or equipment to hold the Donbas at the are they are losing tanks and armored personal carriers.The Ukrainians are still getting artillery and guided munitions sent to them which makes it impossible for Russia to hold ground since they are currently unable to hold an offensive.Another 1,000 Stingers and 5,000 anti-tank weapons arrived and Russia can't replace lost tanks and armor which is the whole basis of their army.This ends with Russian withdrawing completely from Ukraine and that means Crimea when this is all over.All of this over Putin's ego and misunderstanding of world history

@@geeetube1 not true. They have lost about 1/4 of their military and have been using their best equipment as well as lesser units; SU57S, T80s, not the new tank 'cause they couldn't tow it that far, their best AA, hypersonic missile s, you name it. Russia saying they're only using old equipment has already been debunked. Besides, who in their right mind would do that? Then again, who in their right mind would invade a sovereign country for no valid reason? The Russian military has failed mostly due to gravely substandard logistics and planning.

@@geeetube1 😂🤣😂🤣🤣😅 Russia DID bring out their “advanced” weapons.

Well look at the the battle on the Lomba, they repeatedly did the same thing allowing the South Africans to fight to a stalemate despite disparity in strengths

But Putin won the proxy war in Syria against U.S

They 'made mistakes' but still won it, they worked with the SAA and took back most of the territory. and the territory they havn't taken back yet is just because they are illegally occupyed by foreign countries.. but the Russian's/SAA effectively won it as the US got blasted by Iranian missiles in Iraq.

@Pulse Star all the US forces were pulled out, a political decision, when they were there the Taliban was not able to mover forward cause US personnel on the ground beat them down

Wagner clashed with the US there too and got absolutely annihilated. 50-100 wagner dead, 200-300 overall amongst the RU side and not a single US casualty.

I guess "centurion" today is rather a captain´s rank.

This! I swear people who don't understand the military power sanctions, don't understand that Russia imports its smart military tech. No tech, no smart weapons.

@Gavin Gas I guess you've been in a cave since late February 2022.

Yet they manufacture their own weapons and supply power to Europe

The Falklands war was well conducted from the British side who were opperating twelve thousand miles from home with a Navy that had almost been cut to a state where it was unable to do the job. Our current armed forces have been cut to such a state that they will never be usefull outside a NATO operation.

The British armed forces and their professionality are a role model for any military in the world. My grand-grandfather always said that from all the enemies he fought from 39- late 44 (pow after that) the „British Lads“ were the thoughest and most aggressive.

Oh yeah, captured 1/5 of the second biggest European country and continuing to make progress is "failing miserably". I bet you also think Ukraine will take Crimea back hahahaha
