The True State of Russian Army
The Russian military, the second largest military in the world, may not be what it looks like. Lies and systematic corruptions may in fact have dragged Russia into this war with Ukraine, which has been heavily backed up by the US and NATO.

But tbf, the Ukrainian S-300 "missing it's target" was a pretty sloppy gloss over. If it really was our missile, which is yet to be unilaterally confirmed, that only means that it hit it's russian target, which caused the debris to land in Poland. If you wanted a contrasting analogy so much - you could've just mentiond about us using "modified" Maxim and MG machineguns XD Just goes to show, how it's in everyones interests to end this Russian fiasco ASAP and arm Ukraine, without holding back for some madeup reasons.

I would argue that if you can make yourself strong as well as projecting strength, you probably should go ahead and do so in case someone tests you. In this case, the reason their military is in terrible shape isn't necessarily because they didn't invest, it's because corruption devoured the military from the inside out. I think Putin's 'cleaning up' of his inner circle is evidence that while I'm sure he knew about his buddies, and I'm sure himself, dipping into the funds being allocated, he didn't realize just how bad it was. Corruption is so bad that even when they were being sent supplies to prepare for the invasion, the army was just selling the surplus off before it even arrived.

Lazerpig also has several videos about this topic, my favourite being "what sunk the Moskva" where he goes in detail about how great the ship should've been, and then reads out an alledgedly leaked readiness report. Let me quote this part directly from that video. "Out of the three-tier anti-missile systems in place, none of the actual systems were working at the time he was struck the short-range sea to air launchers did not work and the flanex last resort missile interception of which the ship has six, only one worked, the rest were being used for spare parts this left the s-300 anti-air systems which could theoretically protect the ship, however the radar system they were linked to interfered with the communications system and thus was turned off but even when turned on, the system apparently had difficulty locking on to targets and that twin-linked 130mm cannon that could be used as a backup to the CIWS system? yeah that also didn't work, hydraulics leak apparently. and all the damage control systems, yeah none of those worked either. several other watertight doors were found to be leaking, some were wedged open. out of the 500 fire extinguishers that were supposed to be on board the ship only had 50 and due to constant theft the safety equipment was locked in storage of which only the admiral had the key to meaning in order to try and save the ship the crew would first have to try and break open the lockers the safety equipment was in it gets worse several of the engines were past their service replacement date by about 10 000 hours, they could only be turned on and run by express permission from the admiral meaning the ship was locked in at about half speed, but only for emergencies the vast majority of the control systems were non-operable or simply did not have a functioning indicator light meaning that if there was a problem no one on the bridge would know about it the ship's generators were all quickly approaching their maximum service life and would appear to work at random. the steering gear was also partially jammed and the ship could only perform a 20 degree turn and the entire ship had heating and cooling issues. Had the Moskva been a US ship and been found in this state the captain would have been court-martialled"

It's very possibly the reason they've amped up their aggression in order to make up for Russia outting the game they've both been playing.

China is 100% a paper tiger. Their military is untested, last conflict it took part in was in 1979 in Vietnam and the Chinese were devastated in that war. The navy while it might be more ships on paper compared to say the US, the tonnage is far smaller than that of the US. China lacks the lift capability to perform any type of air or sea invasion which limits their targets for any future conflicts. They haven’t invaded Taiwan because they know they cannot get enough material to the beaches in time for the invasion to be a success and they lack the population to throw men to the meat grinder trying to perform a beach landing. The one child policy really has crippled China.

It might be unbelievable to see so many things failing due to maintenance, but to be honest high end tanks, trucks, and aircraft require a very significant amount of highly trained crews to support their operation. For example for each individual fighter jet sortie you will typically have between 20-50 technicians dealing with the fuel, inspections, engine maintenance, repair, rearmament around the clock. Much older equipment, like the simple truck or less sophisticated tanks, requires less frequent maintenance and fewer support personnel; but they still require people trained in proper procedures and quality components (tank tracks fall off pretty easily if you use 40-60 year old spare parts, or don't know the people with knowledge of the 'tricks' to making them last). And then when you use that older equipment you can't expect them to perform up to the speeds and capabilities of newer models.

Back in the '80's when I was in the army, the INT unit of my brigade, the Special Service Force, would sporadically publish a newsletter called The SSF Thrust. Contained within was non-classified information concerning Soviet forces, and other potential playmates. Topics covered were things like weapons, equipment, AFV's, etc., but also training, morale, leadership and general battle-worthiness of Soviet soldiers. Back then, it was known that the typical Red Army soldier was poorly-led, poorly educated, of low morale, minimally trained, and would have to fight at the end of a very sad excuse for a logistics chain. It was also known that in a lot of cases, troops would have to be tricked, threatened, or otherwise coerced into the battlespace. Once there, it was predicted that they would likely commit atrocities that were enabled, if not outright encouraged by their command structure. It would seem that not a lot has changed.

I served in the Russian army in 2001-2003, at the dawn of the Putin era, in the elite space forces. Theft flourished even then. During my service two multi-ton power transformers from the substation, eight traveling wave lamps of 250 kg each from an object cordoned off with barbed wire and an alarm system were stolen. Thousands of palladium capacitors were torn out of the equipment by the officers. Military trucks drove on worn tires, on which there was no tread left, even in winter in ice. A lot of military vehicles were faulty. Pistol shooting classes were held every two months, each officer fired 3 shots. There were no other combat training classes, but we marched a lot, learned to pull the leg and perform marching techniques. The 'eye-wash' flourished. Periodically, commissions came from Moscow, for which we put things in order, made different signs, filled out logbooks, colored a trees and curbs of asphalt paths and did other nonsense. But 20 years ago, at least they gave out a good military uniform to officers and soldiers and the food in the daily rations was not overdue. Service in the Russian army is a daily anecdotal stories. There is a saying in Russia: "those who served in the army don't laugh in the circus."

4:42 That helmet is an STSh-81 "Sfera" helmet and it is a real design from all the way back in the Soviet Union times. Issued mostly to interior police and special purpose troops for anti-terrorism and urban combat, it consists of three separate titanium or steel plates.

Design work on the AK-47 began in 1945. It was presented for official military trials in 1947, and, in 1948, the fixed-stock version was introduced into active service for selected units of the Soviet Army. In early 1949, the AK was officially accepted by the Soviet Armed Forces[9] and used by the majority of the member states of the Warsaw Pact.

This is exactly why I distrust most of these youtube videos. Cause it is obvious that they're equally filled with propaganda also. Yes we know Russia is an extremely corrupt country, and their equipment is definitely no where as capable as the US... like they have been under sanctions for like the past 80 years, which means it really hard for them to get equipment and supplies. A budget of 100 Billion for the military annually isn't that much especially when you look at the US's own military spending, like how much equipment, missiles, planes, ships, let alone the personnel and administrative cost per unit. But a lot of the footage shown as evidence of Russian incompetence is and lies seem just like dishonest western propaganda. Like for instance pointing out the Russia is arming troops with Mosin Nagants, as if the Mosin Nagant wasn't upgraded and manufactured till 1950s. Russians obviously aren't arming their soldiers with 130 year old weapons as this video tries to imply. Not to mention many other countries still arm their troops with weapons designed 70-100 years ago. The US still has in service things like M1919 browning machine guns. 1911 pistols are still highly valued around the world cause they are simply well designed weapons that last through the test of time. Germany and many other countries still use MG-42's or rather what they call MG 3s. Not to mention I like how they act like Ukraine was better prepared and armed than Russia was all along... which it obviously wasn't. The Ukrainian military was even in worse condition, the only reason why Ukraine is doing so well is due to the US and NATO supply them huge amount of equipment. As soon as the US and NATO withdraws financial aid and support Ukraine will probably collapse logistically exactly the same way South Vietnam did. Where you have highly trained and motivated military (unlike Afghanistan where moral was low and leadership was a house of cards), but they have no means of producing vital war supplies like ammo, spare parts, fuel, and other ordnance (like missiles, artillery shells, etc). The clip of the fake armor plates being shot by a Ukrainian soldier... how do we know that wasn't staged? Where they just took a Russian plate carrier and took some random plates and falsely claimed that was what was in it? Or the clip of all the abandoned equipment at the edge of the river... the helmets, clothes, and grenades... how do we know the Ukranians didn't just take some previously captured uniforms and just lay them out for a photo op. Or a block of wood instead of explosives... Or the clip with the tank having just rubber instead of explosives where the reactive armor is suppose to be, how do we know that they didn't tamper with the block before hand. A lot of channels like this, Real Life Lore, William Spaniel, etc... all have a very heavy bias and losing credibility recently... where somehow everything is a problem for Russia only, but not a problem for the Ukrainians. For instance somehow supply issues over rivers and bad and an endless ever expanding front is an issue for Russia, but somehow the same thing doesn't apply to the Ukranians. You can't tell me in like 40 minute videos that all the roads were bombed to hell and back, or they were hard to pass due to all the rain and mud, rivers and bridges acting as bottlenecks for the Russians, then the next week act like those aren't issues for the advancing Ukrainians.

While serving in the Russian army, I personally saw how bad everything is. In this army, they are constantly stealing. Literally everything is being stolen - fuel for machinery, parts for machinery and the same dry rations that were in the video.

So what's the deal with the war crimes? I'm talking about some sick torture and rape. Is that regular Russian army? Are the COs holding a gun to your heads making you do this or is this the Wagner group and his crazy convicts? because 55,500+ war crimes is fucking insane amount of evil for just one battalion. And why are they killing civilians? I have never heard of such crimes except in Africa's Congo and under Hitler. The only evidence of Nazi like behavior have ever been found in countries where Russia went, in the 50 + years I've been alive and in the Congo.

The worst offense in this war, and the biggest sign of Russian military failure is the sinking of the Moskva. Actual leaked Russian documents showed the ships’ radar systems and projectile defense systems weren’t maintained properly, yet it was still sent forth into battle after being passed through inspection. If their flagship can’t be properly maintained, than what would be?

I've been waiting for a video like this to really explain what happened with Russia and its military. This is a very well done and informative video on the subject. I'm sure more will come out as time goes on as well. It's incredible to me that Russia had the world so well duped, but then again the Soviet Union was always doing the same thing and Putin is a product of that himself. However, I assumed he would not be so foolish as to actually pull the curtain back and let the world see the sorry state. Putin is such a cunning politician in most other regards, but I suppose everyone makes a mistake and Putin has been in power so long he has become detached from what the reality of the situation is. Evidence to Putin being unaware just how bad things were is the fact that he is changing his inner circle and in some cases those members are going missing entirely. And of course the ones suffering from this are soldiers who don't want to be there and of course the Ukrainian people. As winter looms, I imagine things will only get worse.

To be completely honest, in Ukraine people had (and have) not so much trust in government and presidents in particular, but in last 8 years especially - the topmost trust and respect goes to military, names like general Zaluzhny and others are the ones that bring people confidence. It's fair to say that it was a nice gesture from the President at that moment, but that helped to morale, but I'd not say it was the crucial one. People are fighting not for the damn president - we have a democracy - in a few years - there'd be another one. They are fighting because they know - behind their back - their families, kids, parents, friends. And that makes a grand difference. In 8 years we've seen what it means if Russian military is coming your way. It's not just change of a government (although that we don't want as well) - but it also means murders, raping, violence. Thus people united - even those who're not on the front lines are backing them up with equipment, cars, clothes, or any other possible means of support.

I have to call you on two points, 1-- 6:24. That Nagant is scoped and being used as a sniper rifle. Yes it is old but still a very potent and deadly weapon. They have apparently pulled out a lot of older weapons and there is video of those, just think this was a poor choice to make them look desperate. 2-- 8:11 While if what the announcer said is true that was putting lipstick on a pig but it did come out later the reason the tank stopped and could not be towed was because the driver had the parking brake on and didn't know that. That is not an equipment problem but a personnel training problem.
Those old bolt actions M91-30 rifles if in clean serviceable condition are deadly accurate. That sniper version is a killing device that if used for sniping will work well.

That is why Democracy tends to work better than autocracy. The more or less frequent change of who is ultimately in charge naturally limits (high level) corruption. Conversely democracies which keep one party in power for a number of governments have a much higher rate of corruption than democracies which regularly change the party in charge and/or ones with coalition governments.

Russia's always looked at it's vast manpower as a resource not unlike weapons and machinery. If you have a million artillery shells, you launch 'em . . . you don't think about trying to conserve them. The same thinking applies to their supplies of of "inexhaustible" soldiers. WW2 was a classic example of this. The brutal difference is that no one grieves a dead tank.
My university had an exchange program with a sister school in Russia, and so we had professors & students that went there all the time (one was friends with Stalin's daughter & my ex-wife studied there for a semester). Our economics professor said he was looking out his hotel window watching construction in the parking lot and saw a wooden flatbed truck pull up with tar on it, the guys quickly pushed it all out with brooms before it dried in the truck, it only half covered the lot, and then they were done for the day & didn't come back to finish. This how I imagine everything is done there, half completed using the lowest tech processes you can imagine.

a lot of this is false information. I know a lot of my friends and other people who are in active duty VDV spetsnaz and similar divisions and some even still on the frontlines in Ukraine right now, and they use proper equipment. Everything mentioned about old equipment is also related to the socalled America's and NATO's help, who literally send old equipment to Ukraine and Ukranians military. Don't get me wrong, even though I'm pro-russian in this situation, I'm not pro-war and heavily against the idea of killing people. In fact, a lot of Russians, my friends and I know we are fighting our own people. Russians and Ukranians, especially on the east side of Ukraine have the same blood and speak the same language. This video just triggers me, since a lot of information is just invalid. Either it's another try to demostrate "how good the Ukraine is doing", or it's just made up of fake scenarios (which is quite easy to fake by the Ukranian propaganda videos. Also mentioning the "yachts" that the Russian business men are buying. Have you thought about looking into what the "proud American funding" goes to? If the business men bought yaghts on the Russian side, then the President of Ukraine himself who bought mansions, yachts and land in other countries is a bigger scammer. Imagine scamming Proud Americans and hopeful Europeans just to buy himself luxury Pleasures while his own people are starving and fleeing the country.

14:50 Explosive charges with wood? I know what these are!!! I did demolition training in the Spanish army (field artillery). These charges are meant for training and come in normalized sizes, I think this is a 250g pack. The reason is that TNT does not just explode as in the movies, it explodes "by sympathy", it needs a fuse and an initiator charge, which is a smaller charge (50 or 25g, can't recall) and you have to put together the bigger charges adding smaller ones together until you get the desired weight of TNT. These wooden blocks are to train how to set these up, add the fuse and the cable, etc... Once you learn how to safely set up a charge you get the opportunity of the real deal (which is amazing!!!) So, these Mobiks got freakin' training charges!!! OMFG!!! Well, at least they can use them for heating.
