Russian President Vladimir Putin said that during the special military operation it became clear that Russia lacks many types of weapons, including precision-guided munitions, drones, communications equipment.

"In the course of a special military operation, it became clear that many things were missing. These are high-precision ammunition, communications equipment, aircraft, drones, and so on," Putin said at a meeting with war correspondents on Tuesday.

"We have them, unfortunately, we lack them quantitatively," the president said.

"We had a 2.7-fold increase in production for the main types of weapons over the year, and 10 times for the most demanded areas," Putin added.

I hear that the Russians are catching up to the Germans in the number of Leopard 2s in their armored vehicle inventory...

Unfortunately for the Neocons, Russia’s new ally (thanks to them Neocons, by the way), CHINA, can easily fill in the gaps, and then some (as in a lot more).

So as Russia actually loses the war suffers horrible losses and even admits on a daily basis at the highest levels that it is in total disarray,

You tell me what the group of you are that keep coming on here and touting Russia and lying about everything. I think it’s pretty despicable.

I think anyone that listens to you idiots has a bag of warm brownies for brains.

At least 160 tanks and 360 armored vehicles destroyed by Russians. This accounts for between 25% and 30% of all Western military equipment supplied to Ukraine.

It’s been a practice war so far. Russia’s army hadn’t faced a competent opponent in a long long time. Now they’ve identified which areas of weaponry they were deficient in and have stepped up production in those areas.

Now they’ll be ready for a real war.

Williams - you're getting your "news" from the same crew who gave us the "freest and fairest elections in history in 2020".

You know, the ones who have to remind us DAILY that President Trump's statements about that "election" are "baseless" and "without evidence".

Shame Biden isn’t able to show any honesty like that. This admission could also be a head fake by Putin.

The little grunting midget troll in the green T shirt is draining us dry and Putin will still beat him.

That’s rich coming from you and your fellow neocon travelers been saying that Russia would be out of gas, bullets, and missiles back in March 2021.

Russia is stronger militarily and economically thanks to the stupidity in Washington DC.

Biden can go straight to h*** for all I care. But now you’re using that as a cover, that Putin is so wonderfully honest hes admitting they lack all the weapons you said they have in endless supply?

Isn’t the problem that you are a liar?

Do you really think that you can overcome Putin’s own words and the words of the warring mercenaries that are threatening to bring down Russia, by simply making references to the fact that Biden is a liar ?

You are engaging in obvious attempts at misdirection which aren’t fooling anyone.

The reason I bother to call you out on it is that I don’t like stinking liars that post propaganda to fool people.

Just another huge boondoggle we've made by draining our military and our bank account for the homoclown Zelensky.

So, in the process of capturing 20% of former Ukraine (and keeping it), Putin gains real-time, first-hand knowledge on how to sharpen and fine-tune his military with real live experience -- all while winning! It's called a two-fer.

At this rate, we'll be paying the Ruskies to do our fighting in place of our woke military just as we paid them to launch our astronauts into space for years.

Way to go, Brandon -- and Mr. Timber Rattler, too.

Where is your link that China is replacing all of Russia’s lost military inventory?

Or even a link that Russia has captured and is using German tanks about that 1?

Could it be you don’t like Putin admitting he lacks sufficient equipment in his military to beat what everyone thought was a second rate country at best?

Do I need a link for Putin refusing to acknowledge the presence of his military commander?

How about all the Wagner statements which are threatening revolution?

How about the fact that Ukraine is attacking but you said the Ukrainian armory was obliterated?

Lol how about Wagner attacking Russian military units and taking an officer prisoner and posting videos of his interrogation and confessions?

Or do you want to claim that the direction of the war is not heading for Crimea?

It sure as h*** is not heading in the other direction.

I guess we have our answer, no matter how bad the war goes for Russia in the real world, they will just keep posting the same kookie garbage here.

When did I say that? I said China CAN fill the gaps...not that they ARE doing it. So stop LYING about what others say.

“and even admits on a daily basis at the highest levels that it is in total disarray”
By the way, we’re still waiting for your links to Russia admitting “ON A DAILY BASIS that it is TOTAL DISARRAY”. In fact, I doubt you can find a SINGLE admission, much less a DAILY admission that Russia is in “TOTAL DISARRAY”. So stop LYING about what Russia says.
