25-30K and that’s probably a conservative estimate
lol, no, it doesn't......
You can estimated by having chart their replacement unit and their rotation and guess how many casualties they had suffered.
The entire line has rotated twice since Feb 24, which suggest 100% casualty rate since Feb 24, which mean roughly 200,000 casualties, depends on the ratio, it can range up to 1 KIA to 5 WIA to 1 KIA to 10 WIA. If this is former, then roughly 40,000 Russian had died, if this is latter, then roughly 10,000 had died. Modest guess would put this between 20,000-30,000 Russian KIA.
Russian law stipulates that conscripts are not allowed to fight abroad, so only contract soldiers can participate in the Ukrainian War.
The Russian Land Army has 250k contract troops in total, of which less than 200k participated in the Ukraine War.
In modern warfare, the ratio of technical support soldiers to front-line soldiers is about 2:1. That is to say, the number of front-line soldiers in the Russian army is about 66K.
You said that the Ukrainian govt killed 25-30K Russian soldiers, which means that nearly half of the Russian front-line soldiers died, and the casualties must have reached 100%.
Have Ukrainian govt troops occupied Moscow?
