Simple. Remember they sold their weapons to Iraq so they would know their system architecture. More, Iraq weapons program was based on their design.

Let me re-phrase the term "logistical capabilities".

How will the Russian Army cross the world's oceans with enough "beans and bullets", fuel, troops and carrier based close air support to wage a war without getting their clocks cleaned as was the case in Afghanistan?

Afghanistan was not clock cleaning...10 years, 1 million dead Afghan and 15K dead Soviet troop (many second rate Turkicks) is not clock cleaning, it is slow bleed of Vietnam variety...same what Iraq is trying to be.
