—” A lack of munitions accuracy will continue to be a problem for Russia.”

Tank gun barrels last only a few hundred rounds,heavy artillery a few thousand rounds.

This affects accuracy, made in north Korea probably does not help.
Dealing with a misfire inside a tank under attack could be difficult. Best to wait for ten -fifteen minutes; the Ruskees can take a few sips of whatever before opening...

I have seen where they attempt to determine the number of rounds fired by the piles of spent shells already down the bore.

And guessing the barrels weren’t new when they attacked Ukraine.

Your post No. 34 is the exact type of real world/no b.s. post that shows you know what you’re talking about. I’ve known a few dumb grunts, but most of them are a lot smarter than they let on.
