  1. USA knocks on russian doors . In Africa its the Wargner group which does stuff but Russia is just way too far away to have real influence . Russia will collapse again

  2. Newer versions do but majority don't . Javelin is a good system but lacks range

  3. They've never had an Ukraine scale war since 1979

  4. Doctrinal difference

  5.  @ether23-23  yes

  6. Didn't do shit to Azerbaijan .

  7.  @ВячеславСкопюк  France and the UK have carriers . Support for the military is at an all time low in basically all countries of western Europe . If they wanted to they could build up a huge force. Measuring in rubles doesn't change that much . Sure now you have 10x the currency but also 10x the cost so nothing changes .

  8. It's not bad either especially for its price

  9. But then they'd have to give back territory

  10.  @aleph_one  there used be an experimental version called xm-50 or something like that but it was cancelled

  11. They can take out the carriers if the USA neatly places them in a line . Without that they couldn't do shit

  12. Did someone hear something offensive m

  13.  @bammeke76  USA lost an incurgency. Why do you equate that to a conventional war ?
    1
  14.  @rhodium1096  civilians don't count . Artillery could fire but the problem was a lot of it got taken out durring the curse of the war and attacks by Armenia were suppressed by Azeri artillery and detected with drones

  15. Humans are variable and often times loader get tired

  16. If a country can devalue your currency easily that's on you . Ruble is low value because it's basically pegged to oil and gas prices. Potential isn't the same as the real thing. Debt isn't bad for the economy as long as your economy grows faster than the debt . It's actually quite feasible way to get revenue to the government. Russia can't afford to sanction

  17.  @KondorDCS  they're a battle tested technology used by various forces . Iran was malicious

  18.  @vulgarisopinio  iskander didn't do anything to Azerbaijan . Rest of Them aren't accurate enough to really demine anything on the battlefield unless you strap a nuke to them
    1
  19.  @vulgarisopinio  Armenians shot iskanders against Azerbaijan but it had no effect
    1
  20.  @vulgarisopinio  it's a fact . Even the prime minister said they didn't do anything
    1
  21. Idk 90% but t-90 does have problems . Like I've heard it's cumbersome for the crew and not very comfortable or ergonomic
    1
  22. That does compensate but not fully . Recently mikhoyan and sukhoi needed to be merged to keep from going Bankrupt and the large scale production of the t-14 has yet to fully begin . Russia makes a few good show pieces but they simply don't have the budget to make them in significant numbers

  23.  @hecunotmakingalogisquad5785  it can take out the tank too
    1
  24.  @rhodium1096  Most of them were by artillery . Those missile did jack shit

  25. 50% of Russias federal budget is oil . Diverse economy my ass .
    1
  26.  @vulgarisopinio  I'm talking about the federal budget . Russian budget isn't diverse thus its vulnerable . And that's only oil The service sector only makes up 50% of the GDP . No1 exporter in grain doesn't really mean anything since majority of countries that matter produce their own grain Arms exports aren't a market large enough fuel major economies Space is a relatively new market in which the competition is for now low . Only a few countries actually go to space and a lot of countries recently started while Russia started in the 50s Nuclear ice breakers are nitche field . USA has the most carriers. Russia has left over industries from the ussr . Recently sukhoi and mikhoyan needed to merge because they were in danger of going bankrupt . Thriving market I see . The only industries in Russia that really matter are oil and recourses . It has major economic problems and you can't just deny that

  27.  @vulgarisopinio  china was self-sufficient too but that doesn't mean much . Autarky has always failed and will continue to do so . Self-sufficient doesn't mean good . So is north Korea somewhat self sufficient
    1
  28.  @vulgarisopinio  diverse economy is good because it handles crises well because it's not dependent on one single industry or a few of them . All of Russias significant industries are energy and resources . Self-sufficiency require very few industries (food , energy , shelter and basically that's 90% of it ) but wealth is created by trade and genuine diversity (as in more 60% of economy is the service sector and you have a variety of large income sources)

  29. That doesn't change that much . Even tho it's in rubles Russia hasn't mass produced the t-14 and the su-57
    1
  30.  @ВячеславСкопюк  Europe isn't militaristic nor does it have the heavy equipment left over from the ussr . How come USA has 200 f-22s but Russia only 12 su-57s ?
    1
  31.  @ВячеславСкопюк  it can, just doesn't want to . France for example has carriers. Dollars are simple measurment even in rubles the effect is the same . The unit ≠ quantity

  32. The vast majority speak russian . Although with chechn units and what not there are mixed loyalties
