    Russia is forced to prop up its economy through their russian national wealth fund. Every material they need to purchase is getting costlier and their revenues from the exports have been declining.

    More sanctions, enforcement and degradation of their logistics will crush russia. US aid to Ukraine needs to be passed this weekend so please contact your representative to get it done if you are in the states.

  2. It’s never been well. Stealing India’s T-90s to make up shortfalls in your own inventory was never a “good” sign. Like a less competent and certainly less appealing version of Albert Speer, Shoigu can only keep up the Kremlin’s charade for so long. Beyond that, it’s either slavish dependency on the likes of Iran, north Korea or China, or collapse.

    Last thing this World needs is more Kremlin anything. Let what remains be destroyed and may it never be replaced.

    And where do the IMF, World Bank and every other organisation get their numbers from, you fuckin moron?

    It’s easy to make claims in a factory. Far better is a visit to a shooting test range, showing what they can (or can’t) do. With international reporters.

    Remember when allocating output production, Russia has stripped so many areas of reserve armor.

    Keep some for Siberia, where China is casting greedy eyes. Occasional border skirmishes over the years.

    Former friends, the local ‘Stans are getting restless and looking elsewhere.

    Need some along Russia’s new NATO border with Sweden, Norway. Just in case Finland has a long memory of 1940.

    To maintain a realistic threat against Europe, need something more than scattered BMP infantry transports aimed at the Fulda Gap against Germany.

    You want to be a super power? Need the arms to match.
