Do the Polish-Balarusian border. The new approach to the weaponizing of the emigrants Russia took from Syria and Iraq and carried onboard the Aeroflot planes to Minsk and from there escorted by Specnaz straight to the border. In my opinion this is meant to give the current Polish government a nice shiny look of defenders of the nation. Putin takes this measures because he know the longer PiS party rules in Poland the more chaotic the country becames. And he just saved them from premature elections...

Even if Russia 'loses' Ukraine will cease to exist as a nation considering how many of their fighting age men are dead or permanently crippled.

It's self-irony - but there's also subtle wisdom in the fact that brute repetition creates athletic skill - after all, battles aren't won by scholarly intellect, but stubborn refusal to run in face of lethal threat. To determine the moment and location of battle, the political and strategic reasoning behind it - that is what should be under utmost scrutiny, imagination and critical contemplation - not just on the staff level...

Russia has vast territory, many 'disputed' territories and borders China.

Problem is not necessarily pleasing the young voters, but more the old generals. The Russian military still has some of the old and bold who want a giant Cold War style Army. Don’t get me wrong there are generals who think that a smaller professional army is good, but there are still enough of the others to make it difficult. Just look at their transition to Brigade Combat Teams, that was meant to be part of the reforms to make Russia more professional and streamlined. Now half of the Brigades are back to being Divisions. Though the introduction of a dedicated military police and an attempt to stamp out on the ‘traditional’ bullying of new recruits are signs that reform is making its way into the military, so maybe in the future conscription will be gone.

From testing of their equipment it appears to absorb infra-red as radiated by the body and ultimately re-emit lower energy, farther infra-red photons. The inordinate amount of those emissions in the far infra-red are still very detectable by equipment designed specifically to do so and can be made to stand out as easily at range as a person in unprotected clothing to equipment designed to see it.

It's one thing to suffer for your country when it's in the right, quite another thing if you're squandering your future and the lives of your children because Putin says so. That said, I agree that this would likely turn into an un-winnable situation for Russia. Ukraine is huge and has 40M people. The Russians are fighting because they're being told to or being paid. I doubt that many will see Ukraine as an existential threat. Ukrainians, on the other hand, are fighting for their very lives and futures. They can count on essentially limitless support from the world at large in terms of everything but military forces on the ground. My guess is that you'll start to see Russian soldiers killed by local resistance. Instead of blocking roadways with protestors, you're going to see them let the soldiers drive in, and then kill them one by one as they step out of their tanks or as they walk by on patrol.

Plate carriers use trauma pads between the plates and your body for a reason. Without them, you can be wearing level 4+ rifle plates, get hit with a 7.62x39 round in the plates, and die. Without trauma pads to absorb some of the kinetic energy, the impact of the round can still push/compress and tear soft organs. It's like throwing a cinder block into a pond. You can still die of internal bleeding and injuries with the actual slug never touching your body

Well this aged well.

I agree that even if you managed to prevent a 50BMG from penetrating, the receiving guy is gonna get a massive shock. Even if he survives it, he's gonna be looking at ruptured organs, torn muscles, and an almost literal splitting headache from concussion at minimum. I think. Let alone lost or highly damaged limbs if it's a limb shot. So yeah, even if Russia can make armor which can stop a 50BMG (especially an AP one) shot, the solution will be fairly simple, if costly and will take additional training depending on the environment.

Best is the enemy of good enough. The size of Russian task force in Georgia was quite comparable with Georgian Army, and Georgia was better equipped. Much better equipped.

And Georgians were prepared and were defending in the mountains giving them huge advantage.. If Russians broke Georgian resistance in 8 days.. imagine what it is capable of achieving after modernisation. It is a western cultural thing to deliberately downplay enemy in front of potential conscripts (future victims of war), any lost war is followed by an info war, where compilation of local successes, paints a different picture of otherwise a miserable defeat.

We’re just now getting to the point where the system’s are small enough, the ruggedness/reliability is already there but battery power is still an issue (but will probably be resolved pretty soon). It’s easy to install a system into a tank or aircraft because it has a generator in the system. It’s rugged because it’s in a armored craft and size doesn’t matter for obvious reasons.

Does the ratnik system integrate with drones for intel and communication with sites outside of the battle site?
