Russia has unlimited manpower / resources
Not really. They have a low birth rate ever since the Soviet Union collapsed. So that affects their military because they no longer have unlimited cannon fodder like they did in the past.
Russia does not have unlimited manpower or resources. They haven’t sent a single T-14 or Su-57 into combat. But they are sending T-62 tanks into combat just as the Ukrainians are deploying Leopards.
They’re short a missile cruiser and their sole aircraft carrier is a rusting hulk alongside in Murmansk.
Russia is losing this war and you know it. What should have been a seven day cakewalk has turned into a multi-year meatgrinder.
And it’s not over. China is sooner or later going to strike and take back what the thieving Russians stole from them.
