The Russian military sucks. It's always sucked, and until they completely revamp their order of battle, philosophy, and unit structure, they will continue to suck.

The only reason they rolled back the Third Reicht is that the Germans ran out of bullets.

Russians seemed to reinvent the "human wave" method of battle.
