@Josh93B93 It is unlikely the attrition rate is equal as Ukraine captured Kherson with a siege and Kharkiv through a thunder run, while Russia just keeps throwing themselves at heavily fortified positions to capture a few meters/day.
Ukraine quality is better.
According to Russian paratroopers on Telegram, the recruits sent to help them are poorly trained, poorly motivated, and poorly equipped. This probably due to Russia's mobilization being so desperately quick. Meanwhile, Ukrainians have been training and rotating soldiers for the better part of a year. In addition, NATO equipment seems to be of better quality than ancient Soviet equipment that has clearly not been maintained.
Lastly, Russian numbers only look good on paper. The number of troops listed can't all be sent to Ukraine unless the Navy sends all their sailors, the nuclear missle forces abandon their silos, the border guards abandon station, and Russian occupiers leave Georgia and Moldova. After 250,000+ fled the last mobilization, I also question how much reserves Russia actually has.
