The author is too deep inside their domain. The article never defines C4ISR. So I had to google it.

C4ISR is Command, Control, Communications, Computers (C4) Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR)

Do you want Russia to succeed in overcoming American military systems and advancements?

If you accept Russian propaganda as being true, the article has some validity.

The end of the article shows the analysis is based on the assumption the Russians are inflicting 10 to 1 casualties.

The 10 to 1 casualty figures might apply if Ukranian civilians are being included, but even that seems insanely one-sided.

If the casualty figures were 10-1 in favor of the Russians, they would not have retreated. They would not be bogged down in the Donbass.

Some of what the author writes about the capability of modern sensors is simply wrong. Clouds are not nearly the impediment he thinks they are.

how strategy and tactics are employed in a modern ISR-dense (C4ISR)

I hate when writers don't expand their TLAs (Three Letter Acronyms) at first usage unless they're very common like FBI, IRS, CIA, etc.
