    Honestly when they’re done, that manufacturing capacity will do great things for their economy.

        It's what many says, Europe needs Ukraine for many reasons and a big one is (sadly), their knowledge about a mordern war.

          War is basically all logistics and the value Ukraine is getting out of their drone program is insane

            Then don't sign up. 🤷 Article says they are being given incentives to sign up.

                Ukraine playing it smart and understanding how modern warfare is done. Russia only throwing in more and more soldiers.

                  Kelin was then asked about Russian army recruitment.

                  "I'm not a specialist in this area, but as I understand it we have 50-60,000 a month, those volunteers who are coming, recruiting, posting, and they would like to get engaged in this thing (in Ukraine)," he replied.

                  He did not explain why the size of the Russian army fighting in Ukraine has gone down despite what would amount to around 250,000 extra troops being recruited and sent to the front since the beginning of the year.

                  From I figure, basically by giving recruitment numbers and total numbers in Ukraine, the West can calculate number of casualties, which the West figures is 1 million. Remember casualties includes injured.

                  Ukraine has been keeping a tally of Russian losses since pretty early on, and it's been pretty much perfectly accurate.

                      The amount of money they get for signing on is so staggeringly huge, it is one of the drivers of the high inflation they are having.

                        It works though, that's why they keep doing it. It's slow as hell and inhumane, but they can afford it for many more years I'd wager. Their capabilities of data gathering/transmission are much better these days as well. Also don't forget they set up wired drone production (in serious numbers at least) first, they can be smart at times.

                        Underestimating them irl is pointless.

                          Russia it was already a mess before but considering their median age, after a 1mln loss they're as good as fucked.

                          Putin doesn't care about his country, but Russians then?

                          They don't care either. The majority, that is, there are some good apples who left the bunch

                            Did they get that knowledge from 9 soldiers, one of which carries a cursed burden?

                              In Russia’s defence, who could have possibly have thought that invading Ukraine in the winter wasn’t going to be a simple 3 day weekend kind of thing?

                                      For context, the America lost about 55,000 soldiers in the Vietnam War, which lasted about 10-12 years. Russian has already lost at least 600,000 in a couple of years.

                                        Reminds of of that scene in tiberian sun when NOD installs the new AI

                                        EVA: "Casualties rates unacceptable, this course of action -"

                                        Anton: "stop, Activate the reprogramming"

                                        EVA:"Casualty rates well within acceptable parameters"

                                        I get the feeling they take ww2 loses before they even notice.

                                          The amount of money they get for signing on is so staggeringly huge, it is one of the drivers of the high inflation they are having.

                                          Which means the money they get is less and less valuable the more people sign up.
