~You seem to think they are super soldiers when most of them are lazy drunks created by decades of socialism.~

Many are lazy drunks but they are capable to use weapons, including advanced systems, and more competent in terms of warfare than, say, average American EBT-card holder or Arab terrorists employing spray-and-pray doctrine.
Look at the Balkan Wars and all the wars in FSU during Soviet collapse. They were particularly bloody and involved all sorts of advanced machinery.

Haha, 2 of my 3 tours were in the Balkans. The Russians are the most useless of any soldiers I’ve met. They lack discipline, determination, well, they lack everything. The only thing they care about is where the next bottle of vodka is coming from.

The unionized Dutch army was far superior.
