A theory on why Russians are not doing well here

Russia for the first time in 200 years is alone at war.

When it fought Napoleon it was with Britain.

They lost Crimean War when France and England joined Ottomans.

They fought WW1 together with Fronce and Britain.

They fought WW2 initially together with Germany, then together with America.

Now they are however alone and it seems that it's much harder to fight alone.

no army in history has ever won a partisan war
now it's a part of pigs' tactics

Cockholese 'militants' use people as human shields. Simpul as butthurt nigger.

It has nothing to do with that. It is mainly because:

1. Demoralized corrupt military in which popular and effective generals are seen as threats to the mafia-state and removed before they get to powerful.

2. An primarily artillery based force that isn't being allowed to simply level cities to the ground because the PR would be even worse.

3. Corruption in arms manufacturing has probably created a quality control problem and embezzlement.

pretty disgusting

Russians are incapable of modern warfare. They evolved to die in hordes.

Genocide helps

>Russia for the first time in 200 years is alone at war.
Except, you know, France and Nazi Germany kek

>When it fought Napoleon it was with Britain
Also, when Russia fought Napoleon the only reason Russia did well was because they literally ran away and harassed Napoleon on his maneuvers like mongoloid horse archers. Fortunately that tactic resulted in tons of Russian dead because horse tactics don't transfer 1:1 with infantry.

>Also, when Russia fought Napoleon the only reason Russia did well was because they literally ran away and harassed Napoleon on his maneuvers
Not my problem.

When nato inevadably invades russia, im sure i will see a russian soldier in every civilian home

russia is failing for one reason only - Ukraine has thousands of western atgms and AA missiles.

tried, doesn't work

Russia is winning. Nice cope though toilet cleaner, keep sucking western propaganda

> modern warfare
Like how you guys fight ha? By doing a massive half a year air campaing where you flatten everything then send in the armor to mop up what is remaining? It might be good tactic for destruction but you can't capture a country like that without breaking everything

>Russia is winning.
But it's struggling immensely and might not win in the end.

Not a problem when you can just bomb it all. Problem is civilians used as a shield.

According this map Russia has all the land it originally wanted anyway.
>why didn’t it take over all of Ukraine ?
Was that ever the plan?

If Russia is so weak, why doesn't NATO attack it.
All bark, no bite.

Only nukes. If they didn't exist moscow would have been demolished decades ago

Another ruski land fantasy. If they wanted human shields they would use captured russo fags

Easily explained:
They are doing quite well actually, maybe your question is why they didn't do better? If we mean with better an overwhelming victory.
There are many issue.
1- they really believe in the denazification, therefore they did not expect any kind of collaboration with Kievan regime from local police force, civilians and other istitutions and organizations with ethnic Russian.
2- the first forces did not know they were gonna invade Ukraine, it was just an exercitation for them, (in contemporary age this is how you put your men in action, even with other type of actions, like terrorist attacks, when you have a tip-off you place the SWAT nearby in standby as "exercitation") that caused low morale and bad logistics in certain columns, but overall they did quote well.
First days were a complete success.
3- the Kievan regime doesn't give a crap of locals, therefore use civs as meat shield. Ukraine army take position inside residentials areas forcing civilian out of the top floors and forcing who lives in the bottom one to remain (of they try to run they get a bullet if they are males because muh disertion).
4- Russian army is doing it's best to avoid civilians death caused by fire and by caresty. They tries always to evaquate civilians and to supply them with food and meds. That requires a lot of efforts from the army. The majority of soldier are not doing actual fights but they help locals.
5- Russian army did not except such resistance. It is an obvious defeat for Ukraine army therefore soldiers should surrender. Why they don't? Propaganda and fear. Soldiers see how POWs are threated by them and they don't want to be tortured like they torture Russians neither a they want to be killed by their colleagues when they suggest surrender (what many Ukrops do).

>If

Retarded. This war is basically Agincourt for 20th armoured warfare/combined arms. Armoured vehicles, helos, and jets are the french heavy cavalry, drunk hohols with NLAWS and drones are english longbowmen. It's over, you can't take over a country that has access to these technologies anymore. Warfare has changed again like it always does.

Looks like nato is defence allience like it always said.

My theory is simpliar. They are doing fine and the propoganda we see only make us think otherwise.
