Comments by "" (@sgn9754) on "Strategic u0026 political messages as Russian invasion of Ukraine is stalemated in week" video.
@sankalp6872 Russia has not withheld any troops. 75% of the troops planned for the mission is on ground.

@ayansengupta6592 Most of the Russian money allocated for military has gone to buying yatches in the Meditarenean. Also most of their equipment is outdated and the army lacks morale also.

The more Russia gets weakened, the more China gets weakened.

With the current Russian fleet, they can't achieve that.

Reminds me of demonetisation objective. smoke and mirrors.

@sankalp6872 Don't come crying when China attacks.

@kadarabdi9829 They have been asking for cease fire also. That does not mean anything. Russia cannot fly unhindered like they did in Syria. If they can fly without hindrance from Ukranian Airforce and missiles, that is called Air superiority.

@srihari_g Russia does not have Air supremacy and cannot fly unhindered, looking at the number of Airplanes and Helicopters they lost. Anyway Russian military hardware is decades old and can only achieve Airsuperiority in places where they are fighting civilians, who does nt have airpower. Russia is so frustrated with its hardware, that they have resorted to bombing and heavy artillery indiscriminately. Anyway Russia has already set revised objectives to make it appear as a win.

@srihari_g We have seen how Russians fight in Afghanistan and Georgia, when they have Opposition. They always overestimate their capability and never expected such heavy losses. After one month Russia has been loosing positions, they lost initially is ample proof of this. Any way as per Russian media, this is not a war and Russia is not destroying anything. It is Ukranians bombing themselves and helpless Russia watching.

@srihari_g I do not need to believe any media. I have my friends in Ukraine fighting the war. Have been to Ukraine many times. Duran is funded by Russian govt, Richard is a Bashar Crony who got Russia to Bomb Syria. If you watch too much of them, you might be tempted to think that the real indepnedent media is is fraud and Russia is not at war and Ukranians are destroying propoery and killing themselves or using actors.

@kadarabdi9829 SU 25 is the fighter to establish air superiority and only once you gain air superiority can you deploy slow moving bombers. In Russia's case, they have not been able to establish any superiority and has been consistently loosing their airplanes. Syrian Bombing was against civilians who had no Airforce, Missiles or Air defence. Ukraine still has a large portion of its aircrafts intact and has much less losses than Russia. Russia has deployed most of the aircrafts it could move in the war.

@ayansengupta6592 Russia is a small to mid size economy which is already spending 10% of its revenue on Defence. Most of the allocated funds are squirelled away by oligarchs into personal property.

@ayansengupta6592 It does matter and your army is only as good as its equipment and the equipment needs money. Israelis had all the support of the west and hence won the war. Small strikes are possible even by radical groups and not need an army. Russia does not have money to spend on modern equipment.

@ayansengupta6592 Strategy Assumption, Tactics all are influenced by corruption. You plan a strategy based on the understanding of your capability, which exist on paper, but does not exist in real as the money was Siphoned off.

@ayansengupta6592 Which Arab Israel war are you talking about? 1948 is the only one called as Arab Israeli war. How can there be Mirages in 1949-67. Mirage was the state of art Aorcraft then. If you do not have money, you cannot even invest and pay for food and uniform, so even worse. Each war is fought differently and will need some special weapons for each of those. If Drones were there earlier, even Afghanistan would be a different story. If you do not have money, you have nothing, leave the advanced ones, but not even basics.

@srihari_g I do not want to listen to any of them, who believes this is a special operation for denazification of Germany. Hitler also had his excuses, but does not make him relevant. People who are affected and displaced due to war are not brainwashed.

@srihari_g Ukraine being used as cannon fodder ? This is Russian propoganda at its best. Who attacked Ukraine? A country that has told its people that Ukraine is controlled by NAzis and Russia is only doing a military operation should be scared of its own people to call it a war. It is not just US who is supporting Ukraine. Even neutral countries like Finland are supporting Ukraine. Are you saying that, Ukraine cannot self determine whose its friends are?

@ayansengupta6592 The first flight of Mirage 3 was in 1956 introduced in operation in 1961. Not sure how it became obsolete in 2 years. Russia has not done these kind of operations succesfully except the Donbass incursion. When you only have limited resources, you need to prioritise and Russia needs to spend a lot of money in its nuclear arsenal and there is very little money left over. Ukraine drones are bought from Turkey whereas Russia has Kronshtadt Orion drones made in Russia. There are many reasons that Russia is lacking in the war.

@ayansengupta6592 Russia has over 500 drones in their ISR fleet. They are Granat 1, Granat 2, Eleron-3, Zala models, Orlan-10, Takhion and Zastava. Russia has used them in Ukraine too. However an army that is short of food fuel and motivation is of no use with modern equipment. Russia have used Drones succesfully in eastern Ukraine in Mariupol, Ngorno Karabakh and Syria.

@ayansengupta6592 I have not questioned your knowledge and hope you will not make this personal. Russian ZALA KYB kamikaze are loitering munitions and has been used in Ukraine. They also have zala Lancet, that has been used in Syria.

@ayansengupta6592 It is a combination of overconfidence in their equipment, Lack of spending on military, low morale of the army etc that are causing the issues. These platforms have been in operation for Russia since Syrian war. Just like all other russian weapons, the reliability of these are also low due to lack of investments. If Russia does not have the experience, do you think Iran will have any experience. Exact numbers of these are a guess but the numbers on the web says over 500. But it is not difficult to ramp up production in preparation for a war. These are not so difficult to assemble.

Looks like, that you watch too much of RT news.
