I have considered accepting the responsibility of taking the mantle of world leadership. I would probably start with expanding Finland to the Greater Finland and move up from there. After we join Nato, we could absorb Norway and Sweden as independent duchies in the spirit of Helsinki and forging our Nordic brothers and sisters into a single force with diamond focus. After we get this all sorted out, 3-4 days, 2 weeks tops. We would move to liberate Karelia and form the area into an autonomous state, something similar to Åland. While we would roll over the western russia, we would occupy the historical Kievanrus territories all the way to Ukraine. Once the area would be secured, we would teach the current russians of where the Rus actually came from among with our true heritages (plural), while we would be chatting with Zelensky of Ukraine joining the Greater Finland as a Independent dutchy. I have reserved about a week for these negotiations, but am willing to expand it up to a month if needed. The rest of russia would be given pretty much free reign on what they want to do, probably would need to help them form their independent nations and governments and to help them integrate and play nice with their friends. To those wondering "You, and what army?". Well, the army would be only needed to secure any given area for a relatively short time. Mostly we would be using words of power. Depending on the situation. There would certainly be a need for a few 'PERKELE', but nothing we couldn't overcome. Problems solved, you're welcome. The only question that is up right now is what title I should use to rule Greater Finland. Titles like "President", "Kaiser", "Tsar" or "King" doesn't really have the right ring to me. I was considering "Khan" for a moment, but it might be considered cultural appropriation. Anyone got a tip for a good title? - Your's Inso I, the Awesome (insert title here) of Greater Finland

@@banger2998 no that's the narrative which you've been presented via western media. The reality is that Russia holds 25% of the second largest country in Europe, they've moved slowly village to village to stop insurgency happening. Insurgency was the main reason the US was in the middle east for 20 years and couldn't fully control it because they move so quickly between villages that they don't clear out weapons caches and identify possible insurgents. The media does not like Russia, the west does not like Russia, therefore you can expect any report on them to be negative. You can come back to this comment in a few months and i guarantee that most if not all of Donbas will have been "liberated". Russia will set up defensive lines around areas they hold and help the "republics" to rebuild. When Russia become the defender it will be even harder for Ukraine to win any battles because the defender has a 3:1 advantage, Ukraine cant win in defence when they are at full strength, so they won't be able to win in offense with a depleted and untrained army. I wouldnt be surprised if after the Donbas falls it becomes a very inactive war, where Ukraine just basically accept they cant win Donbas back but they also will not officially accept Donbas as republics.

Norway too has mandatory military service.

There is one big thing that is missing from this analysis. The Swedish, the Finnish and the Norwegian armed forces have only one realistic enemy. And they've had it for 60 years. Our entire doctrine is based around stopping the Russians. We know where all the roads are, so we'll mine them. There are valleys that must be crossed, and mountain passes that have to be scaled. We'll turn them into fortresses, réduit national style. The entire point is to make an attempt so painful and costly that they will never try. As for the numbers, the Norwegian ones are optimistic. One of the four frigates is more or less permanently beached after an accident with an oil tanker, and 7 of the F 35 are in the US for training purposes. A further 4 are stationed on Iceland, but would probably be recalled in time.

Yeah. The analysis is correct for the scenario, technically. Given unlimited time and unlimited morale.... Russia would win. Enreality, Russia doesn't have unlimited time and morale. Russia could win, but as the analysis says it is so pyrhic in nature it isn't worth trying. Specially since there is nothing to gain. What would Russia get for this massive expense of national scale. We are talking hundreds of thousands of dead. they would get piles of rubble, forests and occupation of area inhabited by people who hate them (not currently, but they would for the invasion). Since not only would Russian artillery pommel everything to rubble.... The national redout would mean scorched Earth, when it is not anymore possible to hold an area. For example Russia would have to fight meter for meter for Helsinki and in the end it would be pile of rubble. There is no bombing out the Finnish defenders out of Helsinki, since it has one of the vastest underground infrastructures in world due to the bedrock allowing it. The urban jaeger troops defending Helsinki are trained to and will go underground immediately and resist from city size underground bunker. One has to either take it meter by meter, starve it out or gas it out. Any significant plants or industrial facilities would be self destructed before allowing them to fall to Russian hands to prevent them being used for supporting Russian war effort. We are talking most likely to scale of blowing up hydro dams, the flood damage to own population be damned level of scorch. Steel mills, paper mills any industrial factory, blown and burned to ground to deny it to enemy. Since to leave it would be a gain for Russia and a war booty and thus reason to continue the fight for Russia due to the things gained or to be gained. And most likely there would not be "think of the children and civilians" in Finland. As with WW2, as soon as there is war Finland will call Sweden and say "you gonna take our children to your national readout, cool thanks". After which there would be evacuation most likely via Vaasa to Sweden. After which there is no civilians in Finland. National defence obligation means every citizen is part of war effort. It is totalest of total war. As said for example Helsinki would dig in and would have to be starved out or taken with just staggering losses of most likely finally hand to hand combat. This is the scenario Finland has been preparing for decades. The question never has been could Russia take us with unlimited time, morale and all national recources. That is always a YES, given the comparison of sized. The real question is "Is it worth the cost to Russia" and "Would the Russian morale hold". Throwing hundred thousand after hundred thousand troops to slaughter to get the rubble of what will be left of Finland is not worth it. Finlands main economic driver is educated population, engineering, technology and sciende. You can't take that by force. Rest is just lots of forest (Russia has more than they can care for), some minerals (Russia has siberia) and some baltic coast line (Russia has baltic access already). So unless Putin is replaced by raving madman, they won't attack. If he is replaced by raving madman, they will attack for sometime until the conscripts and population on Russian side goes "this is stark raving mad idea and my family has lost all young men" and Russia would domectically be forced to stop way before it runs out of resources. Russia isn't USSR and even USSR didn't conduct this sized warfare after WWII and WWII was a patriotic war of defense for USSR (which THEN expanded to punishhing raid and conguest). It will be far harden to justify offensive total war of national scale. Yes Russia has fought in checenia, georgia, Ukraine etc. but those are way smaller affairs and they had strategic goals like Sevastopol. Those are all small skirmishes compared to "throw hundreds of thousands of casualties at taking irrelevant to Russia scandinavian territory for no gain". It would be new afghanistan except closer to home and in modern times of information transfer. It would be a shitshow on all sides. All it would do is burn casualties in all sides, render cities to rubble and no one would win anything in the end.

Ari Takalo that is actually a very good answer. And what I have been saying for years, to my Scandinavian friends. In history in general the defending side had varying advantages to some degree over the attacking side. So the attackers would have to compensate, eighter with higher numbers or resources or some kind of technological, or strategic advantage. In this particular case of Russia invading Scandinavia, the advantages for the defenders would be great as said. Dose Russia possess sufficient material advantages and resorces to conquer all Scandinavia in a total war? Also yes! But as you mentioned, WW2 was a war of atrition, it was a matter of life and death, the winner takes all and the loser loses all, so both belligerents threw all their weight into battle the axis alliance and the soviets, and the heaviest of the two and the most resourceful won. In this case and in a scenario of total war ,given the “weight” difference the only possible victor would be Russia, but given the costs involved, it would by far be not worth it, a win for Russia would actually be a lose for them (material and resources would far outweighs the gains) and so it would be a lose for both sides, for Scandinavia perhaps a final one. So the only resonable posibilities of such a confrontation and ones who would grately help Russia win, would be eighter to have some kind of very spectacular or seminificative gain at stake, for wining the war, that would imedialty help Russia or in the long term, and counter the costs for achieving such a costly victory, but as it was said, it is not the case, neighter material resources or other. And even so this is would not be the best scenarios, as country’s in todays world are more pragmatic, towards the loses rather than expansionists. The other “best motivation scenario” and most helpful for a Russian win, would be to have the same motivation as in ww2, life or death, eighter take all of Scandinavia or die, is it the Scandinavians or is it the Russians? Like in eighter take all Scandinavian land or kill all combatants. Then yes. In this absurd theoretical case scenarios then , yes, the Russians would be the clear victors, and victory for them would be guaranteed, no matter how hard or viciously ferocious the Scandinavians would fight it would just make the costs greater for Russia, but could simply note cope with the sheer numbers and mass of resources of any type thrown into conflict.

In 1997 Finnish military training some things were emphasized: a) No digging in. It is pointless against massive firepower. Go for the flanks if you are in a unit that is capable. Be on the move b) Once, not if, once things crash the guerrilla war starts. I am a signal guy with radio yet even i got guerrilla training. Artillery was omitted here. Also the air force finland has is meant to provide temporary air cover for reserve to come into play. Once that happens all scenarios are open and the horror ending painted here becomes a real chance plus then some. The occupying forces atrocities and partisan response to that would be second to none. Surrender by a captured gov. speaking forced words into a mic would not mean much at that point. The real risks to russia at this point would be somewhere else. The amount of forces they tie down here is so massive that i am quite sure CIA & Co have plans on what events to trigger elsewhere as response. WW3 would be surprisingly close as i am sure other countries would not sit idle. Or actually in traditional sense they would but covert action e.g. 'color revolutions' etc. would be on the menu.

This video didn't age well of course but it had some serious flaws back when it was released too. Here are just a few of them: + The Nordic armed forces are generally quite a bit stronger than what the video claims both in terms of manpower and equipment. + Gender equality may be important here since it effectively doubles the Nordic countries' recruitment potential. + Russian law does not allow for conscripts to be deployed outside of Russia. They would be anyway of course but there still are limits to how much Russia could rely on conscripts for an invasion force. + The Nordic forces' terrain advantage is far more important than what the video stipulates. This is especially true in winter. All Nordic personel would know full well how to handle sub arctic conditions but only a small part of the Russians would. The rest would be sitting ducks in the snow. + The Saab Gripen is not just a "capable" fighter, it's a top modern one, certainly equal to Su-35 and probably the F-35 too. + There is no quality analysis of the marine powers. For example all Norwegian, most Swedish and half of the Finnish "missile boats" are not missile boats in the traditional sense at all. The Swedish and Norwegian ones are actually classified as corvettes but they aren't that either. They are a new kind of ultra fast, highly maneuverable and heavily armed stealth ships specially designed for coastal defense. Comparing them to traditional missile boats is a bit like comparing a ww ii battleship to Nelson's HMS Victory. Those ships are almost unique to the Nordic countries, only China and Greece have something similar. + The entire armed forces of the Nordic countries are specially designed to repell a Russian invation. It's their one and only purpose. + The Nordic countries have huge financial reserves, the Norwegian international pension fund alone is estimated at a value of 1.5 trillion US dollars. This money isn't intended to be used for military purposes of course but if it's a question of saving the nation it sure would be. How much military hardware can you buy for that money? + The hundreds of thousands of unguided anti tank/anti vehicle missiles deserve more than a footnote, especially when we keep in mind that Carl Gustav, AT4 and M72 EC are all made in Scandinavia. If necessary every single Nordic soldier can be equipped with enough firepower to temporarily disable a main battle tank or kill any lighter armoured vehicle.

Finland has 21 500 active and 900 000 reserve military (around 300 000 can be activated and armed rapidly). Sweden has 24 000 active and 32 000 reserve. Norway has 50 000 active and 33 000 reserve. Denmark has 25 000 active and 63 000 reserve. The good side, even though the Scandinavian forces are mainly defensive, is that the Scandinavian only need to eliminate one city in Russia - Moscow, to drive down any will for war. The Scandinavians not only have the moral edge, but also have the edge of not being dependant on crazy dictators to drive the army. If Russia's leaders are killed, that's it for them. If one or two of Scandinavias leaders are eliminated, the fury just grows larger. That's the good thing about living in a state that takes care of you, you love and defend it till the end.

As long as you can stop them from being effectively resupplied with fuel and munitions, they are nothing but hungry people freezing in metal coffins while sitting somewhere in the countryside. And the temperature out there is currently some -10°C. A great advantage as a defender with a lot of tactical space is the ability to pick your engagements outside of the central hubs like cities, which you have to defend, at your leisure. And a great concentrated mass of enemy troops, that probably have had time to take up defensive positions and await your coming, is not conductive to a successful ambush. Especially if the troops are suffering heavy attrition due to missing supplies, miserable weather and small scale demoralising hit and run sniper attacks. And the fact that the convoy is not really moving much and not at least taking up organised positions in front of Kyiv, is very indicative of the Russians having problems with their supplies. Maybe because the Ukrainians keep ambushing them and the Russians are not able to effectively protect them, because all their offensive assets are stuck in a convoy in the middle of nowhere. To quote General Omar Bradley: "amateurs talk tactics, professionals study logistics"

Obviously this is a tongue in cheek video but saying that outside help is not allowed kind of makes the entire wargame pointless. Scandinavian doctrine, like most NATO friendly countries, is based entirely around mutual aid. It's sort of like saying who would win if Russia invaded Texas then saying that the rest of the USA would not be able to help.

I love your out dated numbers, and lack of military knowledge, about Scandinavian defense systems. ;-)

En sak är ändå att vi har så fruktansvärt liten arme. Ukrainia lyckades mobilera jättemånga. Tror inte vi hade lyckats med det i samma situation med tanke på hur pytteliten vår arme är.

They sure must be afraid of Finnish invasion if 45 % Russian troops are situated close to Finnish border 😅

At this point I'm not sure Russia could invade Finland by itself

Funny when watching old Binkov videos how wrong he was, when just looking at paper figures. But, granted, many of us were surprised how inept Russia has become.

By looking at how the Ukraine war is going and how VDV failed I'm pretty confident we are more then well prepared for anything they could send here.

Son, you know nothing... Before feb. 24. Russia concentrated approx. 180000 soldiers and entered in Ukraine with 65000 as for military assets, they are not using even 10%, still, it is conflict there are casualties and destroyed vehicles etc. on both sides and ofc Russian army is not perfect no army is... Russians have total dominance over Ukraine in every term... You heard of destruction of merc's camps in the west of the Ukraine, many fleed home after few hours they thought it is some blog adventure, and there is a lot of information you can get if you search for them... And this is only military operation not a war, we dont want to imagine and see full scale war of Russia... God Help us all !!!

These Russia vs somebody videos aged soooo badly :D

"Considered the elite tip of the spear of the Russian forces" - those words didn't age so well - seems like that tip isn't actually connected to the rest of the weakened spear. Russia's military decision making seems to have become even more suspect. Since all these countries use a lot of NATO technology resupply from the west looks far more feasible/usable than in Ukraine where even ATGM's and drones made a huge difference (a lesson for these countries). Russia's economic ability to wage war against the whole west against sanctions is looking in real question after Ukraine. As Norway is a NATO member I'd expect NATO (esp. UK/Netherlands/Germany/France) to defend Norway against any attacks on its homeland leaving their fleet free to protect the Baltic? I think Russia actually could not win this conventional war after what we have seen in Ukraine - their shortcomings are massive and readiness vastly depleted. Their mobilization and air projection is much below expectation. Even what equipment is considered active is often below full operational readiness - their "reserves" seem likely to be rotted junk. Dangerous still - but nowhere near as capable as we thought.

I think this video requires a remake. We've seen too much of how well Russia has performed in recent weeks, The remake might consider training, equipment maintenance, leadership quality, planning ability, morale, economic warfare, the importance of logistics and how useful secure communications can be. Merely comparing military inventories isn't sufficient, and doesn't persuade me.

Not a word of largest european artillery that Finland has which would be excellent at defending those narrow corridors between lakes.
