China(almost land force) VS USA/UN (air/land/navy Force)

2020s/Russia-Ukraine-war
Russia (air/land/navy Force) VS USA/NATO(almost land force)

Taking Kiev was not an objective, it was just a diversion to split Ukrainian forces.

Come on , a 64 mile column ? No one deploys so much forces as a diversion.

Putin thought that the Ukrainians would see those forces around the capital and fold. He expected Zaleski to run away the minute he saw this massive forces . But that did not happen.

Russian retreated only after they suffered heavy casualties.

Some diversion .Russian tanks destroyed near Kiev:

This war proves conscription doesnt work properly. Your soldiers will not be motivated to fight, especially when going up against a nations army that is hyped up on nationalism and pride, defending their country.

Indeed , why would a Russian soldier die for Putin in a war where he does not understand what he is fighting for.

Look closer, the eyes are still there but due to frostbite, the entire face got swollen and as the eyes lost humidity and other liquids, the eyes shrunk. I guess the they died somewhere between 24-48 hours before the video was made because the skin hasn’t started to blacken yet.

Thanks for explanation. That makes sense. But on another post here was a russian guy where one eye really was kinda pulled out. There was no headshot or explosion damage visible. So i guess in that one case it really was crows. Anyways sunce russia leaves their own soldiers there it shows what they think about them.
 
You are going to have Russian forces that withdrew earlier and then you have Russian forces being told to stay but die well and buy time for them as well as for the forces in southeast of Ukraine. In the Russian soldiers minds that told to stay and dig in, they will run away in panic and getting ambushed and surrounded along the way. The Ukrainians don't want them to leave to go somewhere else.

See in the video on the left side where the missile goes parabolic.
 
A thousand T-72s is a lot. Very much enough for possible counterattack and counteroffensive, even retake Crimea and Donbas region which is in the interest of Ukraine and Europe as well as as for the U.S. I know the Marine Corps gave up their tanks for a shift in doctrine of possible war in the Pacific and didn't want the tanks anymore. Should give it to the Poland since Poland already bought 250 Abrams tanks and should get more to boost the NATO strength. Even with the classified armor. Its better in the long term of a strong NATO country like Poland. U.S. wouldn't have to worry about keeping a 100k military personnel every time there is a conflict in or near Europe. Should trade for like 3 T-72s for every 1 Abrams. So Poland getting almost 600 Abrams tanks total while Ukraine gets a thousand T-72s.
