This does not mean that India can build RD-33 from the ground up, since the material composition is obviously a corporate secret. What it means is technology transfer or in other words putting together parts, like what Pakistan does with JF-17.

No one said they are not there. In fact, Russia exports terrorists to Ukraine and Ukrainian army can't even beat
I quote
The Russian government has never denied presence of its nationals in Donbas stressing that these people were volunteers, not mercenaries.

This leak has been debunked as fake. However, I think the numbers are fairly accurate. I expect roughly a 1 to 1 casualty between Ukrainian soldiers and terrorists. Both sides have no air support and use the same hardware. Ukraine documents some 2,600 soldiers killed so far.
Who slipped? How fake report on ‘Russian soldier deaths’ in Ukraine set MSM on fire — RT News

Bulgaria to repair its Soviet-built MiG-29 jets in Poland - Yahoo News
Poland already does good job maintaining its Mig-29 fleets so it's not surprising that Bulgaria is asking Poland to repair their aircraft: Poland knows the Mig-29 inside and out!

So the Western propaganda found some report on the site called BS-life.ru no one ever heard before and started to post articles in all of their media claiming how "Russia accidently revealed its loses in Ukraine".
F*ck, i dont even have a words. This is already a North Korean level of propaganda if not worse

Claims the one coming from a country where mothers of soldiers are considered as spies,or western agents.

HAL Engine Division Koraput
Since the early 1970, the Division has been overhauling Aero Engines of Various types i.e. R11, R25, R29 and RD33 which power MiG-21FL, MiG-21BIS, MiG-27 and MiG-29 respectively. Over last 4 and half decades Division has overhauled more than 5000 Aero Engines of various types with an aim to ensure maximum aircrafts flying.
R25/R29/RD33 Overhaul Projects
The Division follows the 'Group Technology' with the Engine parts being dismantled, viewed and loaded to different work centers for ROH activities.Regular review of progress through latest IT enabled systems ensures timely completion of assemblies and sub-assemblies of the engines.The stripped components are subject to stringent quality checks using modern technology like CMM, NDT and other non-contact measurements. Repair and refurbishing of worn-out parts and sub-assemblies are undertaken by skilled workmen. Division is also manufacturing most of the components in-house, which are required during overhaul.Repairs and Refurbishing Processes include welding, hard alloy coatings, vibro-tumbling, micro-shot peening, ultrasonic strain hardening, nickel alloy powder coating and a large number of protective coatings. Assemblies, sub-assemblies and Engine accessories undergo rigorous functional tests on various Hydraulic, Fuel and Electrical Rigs.Quality control checks are carried out using various NDT methods, like X-ray, Magna-flux, Dye-penetrant check and ultrasonic inspection besides other conventional techniques. Overhaul of accessories is carried out in environmentally controlled rooms. Every manufactured / overhauled Engine undergoes rigorous tests on Engine test beds that simulate all flight conditions.The preliminary and final acceptance test, hot test, endurance test and gas dynamic stability tests are conducted through computerized controls.Electronically assisted throttle, digital and analog read-outs help get real-time simultaneous data and engine parameters during Engine testing.

I'd say 0, but there might be some Ukrainian Americans fighting there on their own intiative. Otherwise we're just there in an advisor capacity.

Moscow's grotesque efforts to conceal its military aggression in Ukraine convince nobody except pro-Kremlin media
Moscow's continued denial of direct military aggression in Ukraine convinces nobody, it seems, with the latest confirmation coming from an unexpected, if sadly typical, source, writes Halya Coynash for the website of Kharkiv Human Rights Protection Group.
Locals in Russia's Rostov oblast can reportedly always tell you when soldiers are being sent to Ukraine because of the queues in the nearby hypermarket ‘Lenta'. Those on their way to Ukraine stock up with various items. Those men who return alive can also be easily identified by the long queues outside the cash machine, as they all hurry to take out the money they're paid for this unofficial ‘assignment'.
On his Ekho Moskvy programme, Russian journalist Sergei Parkhomenko spoke of how Russia is increasingly seen as an aggressor. He mentioned last week's Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe's Resolutions, one of which is even entitled ‘The political consequences of Russian aggression in Ukraine'. No hiding behind terms like ‘separatists', or ‘bandits'. This, he says, is what Russian President Vladimir Putin has achieved.
It was achieved despite the secrecy, the pressure on soldiers and their families, and a totally unconstitutional presidential decree which classifies as secret any information about losses in peacetime. Human rights activists have challenged the authorities to explain the sharp increase in military deaths from the beginning of 2014 to mid-2015, but without any success.
The locals in the Rostov oblast probably wouldn't write an article, but they saw no reason to conceal from Parkhomenko how the queues told them immediately whether soldiers were being illegally sent into Donbas, or sent home.
He learned of other things during his visit, including the regular instructions to farmers and state agricultural cooperative workers to remember that they never saw any military technology on their fields.
There is also the city cemetery reported earlier, with a huge number of fresh graves with only the letters ‘NM', signifying the Russian for ‘unknown male'.
A young Russian officer recently told him that he wanted to go to Syria, and not to Ukraine. The reason is simple. Russia is not (totally) concealing its involvement in Syria, and they'll give you documents.
With Ukraine, the officer said, it's different. After you agree, with this only verbal agreement, you get a formal transfer to Novocherkask. From there "you disappear", with no more paperwork. They change your uniform, remove any ‘incriminating' insignia and take away your documents.
If you come back, the documents are presumably returned. If you don't, then you're left to lie in an unmarked grave.
Parkhomenko's account coincides with other evidence, including from Russian soldiers who preferred to be tried for going absent without leave rather than be forced to fight in Donbas.
In October 2015 four Russian contract soldiers from the No. 22179 Military Reconnaissance Brigade in Maikop were sentenced to terms of imprisonment effectively for refusing to fight in Ukraine. Alexander Yenenko, who had been most forthcoming in talking with Novaya Gazeta and other media, received the longest sentence. Another soldier Anatoly Kudrin had received a 6-month sentence in July that year. All of them had gone absent without leave (AWOL) in the autumn of 2014, when the fighting in Donbas was still fierce. They had been sent to Rostov and put under heavy pressure to ‘volunteer' to go to Ukraine, with up to 8 thousand roubles (around 110 EUR) a day on offer. Many of them tried to resign, but had their resignations simply ignored.
One of the young men 27-year-old Pavel Tynchenko issued a statement to the Maikop military court explaining that "I did not carry out a criminal order since I did not wish to go against the oath which I took and did not want to take part in military action on Ukrainian territory. I would ask that this is added to the court's ruling".
Russia has resorted to grotesque efforts to conceal the deaths of Pskov paratroopers in Ukraine, as well as other soldiers. Human rights activists and journalists like Lev Schlosberg and Ludmila Bogatenkova have faced attacks and hate campaigns, or actual criminal prosecution. The intimidation helps to keep the information about of the main pro-Kremlin media, probably not to seriously convince anybody.

What is this ? A D!ck measuring contest ?
Major number of that 2400 would be centered around 2005 Taliban offensive- add to that British and other Nato casualties in that period when Taliban actually fight- rest of the time they were usually running around and hiding- With minimal casualties-
So that is nothing to be happy about- Taliban decided when and where to fight and they killed American soldiers and disappeared in their sanctuaries- The fact which Americans should be concerned about is that even after 15 years the Taliban is still fighting against a massively superior military machine-
