I think theres still a lot of interest. Just look at whenever theres good news for russia, everyone pops out and posts.

Thing is good news for russia is kinda rare so the threads go for two or thread days then dies. On the other hand new videos of russian tanks blowing up appear almost every day, so ukraine supporters dont have anything new to comment.

if that's how quickly equipment can be taken out, its not surprising how much tanks and bmps are lost.

saw this video from perun. the interesting part is in the middle, where he assessed equipment losses based on visually-confirmed data.



the disproportionate losses seems to explain the difference in the number of video clips from recent battles, and why russia doesnt seem to have an overwhelming advantage in tanks despite mobilising thousands from storage.

A quick google shows that the area only had one evening of light snow over the past two weeks.

Theres a video i shared earlier that measures losses on each side based on visually identified data, and russian loss ratios are much more than 2:1. It helps explain why russia, despite having more tanks to start with and mobilising thousands from storage, doesnt feel like they have more equipment than ukraine.

The war will definitely end when casualties reach too high, but the threshold for russia is likely lower than ukraine. Ukraine is fighting for its homeland, russia is not. Besides, russia's population is not 10x ukraine, only 3x. In terms of pop, its not malaysia vs indonesia, its malaysia vs philippines.

So russia cant rely on attrition if their casualty ratio is higher than ukraine's. Putin will definitely cut his loss if he can find a way to save face.
