They wrote Art of War and do you think they are not something they are good at?

Ironically yes



Japan based their modern (then during WW2) doctrine on the Bushido quote that was written during a time of Peace

China  she mentions (in a separate video) based it on the Art of War, pratcially can the hardware and the training pay off no one knows but high level wise they are based on something thats sound and conceived during times of war

well, because russia was not actually launching a full scale invasion.

just for context. russia population 146 million, 150,000 army used when they invade ukraine, and no aircraft.

when germany population invade poland, population at the time is 70 mil, troops used to invade poland on the first day- The Germans had amassed an army of 1.5 million men for the attack along with 2,750 tanks, 2,315 aircraft, and 9,000 guns.

so that is why russia use the term "special military operation".

(euromaiden press is a ukraine press which has a pro EU stance) just for context.

Russia has more armored vehicles now than in 2022. The math is ugly. (the title of the article-reported last week)

The upshot is that the Russians had 20,000 vehicles in February 2022. 45 months later, they have 21,000.

"Russia is not exhausting its armored reserves," explained analyst Delwin, who crunched the numbers. "Modeling forward with constant 2025 loss levels and stable new production, the total fleet remains above 2022 levels through at least 2030."

A handful of $500 FPVs can knock out a million-dollar tank. FPV drones have been responsible for destroying more than two-thirds of Russian tanks in recent months. Now tanks on both sides of Russia's wider war on Ukraine usually stay far behind the front line, hiding in underground dugouts and only occasionally rolling out to fire a few cannon rounds from kilometers away. Tanks are far less central to Russian battlefield doctrine than they were just four years ago.
Russia dont send in tanks anymore because tanks are no longer suitable for modern warfare.
