'Cheap Chinese tyres bought by corrupt officials’ may be to blame for Russian trucks and armoured vehicles getting stuck in the mud in Ukraine

Cheap Chinese tyres bought by corrupt officials stalls Russian forces

With Russian vehicles and armoured trucks getting stuck in the mud when veering off road, officials in the West are pointing to Chinese exports as a key factor behind the stalled invasion of Ukraine.

A set of 50 Michelin XZL tyres retails on Alibaba at approximately $36,000, whereas 50 sets of the Chinese equivalent retails at around $208.

(wonder if Pakistan Army would have the same problems - less muddy but is the durability there ? )

If the soil muddy, any vehicle would get in the mudd,

KSA sky is better protected than Russian sky. Saudis are among the best in anti-drone warfare.

Lol, I mean really?

Without doubt.

KSA skies are covered with fully loaded F15s and AEW and C chasing every single detected target. Excellent sky coverage with the world’s fifth airforce. Unlimited use of AA missiles against drones.

Ground and sea are full of vast range of AD from Aegis to patriot, and EW units.

KSA even has Chinese Laser based AD and had the first claimed real life drone kill with Laser.

KSA had 5+ years of drone experience.

While people believe in the cliche of “lazy Arabian baboons”, they are definitely among the best in drone defense.

Russia does not have much of drone or anti-drone experience.

Ukrainians setting dynamites underbridges, so when Russians get closer, they can blow them away. The so-called 'winning" in Western media.
