Let’s Address a Fantasy Regarding the Russian Army
Yes, I added a photo of an actual tank, since people correctly pointed out that this is an APC, destroyed, north of Cherniv
If you have spent any time on Twitter, you probably have come across a variation of this lovely…” the Russians did not bring elite units to this invasion. They are saving their best for NATO.”
Trust me, seeing this more than once. So either this is the work of Russian trolls or plain out fantasy from people who love to go over XL spreadsheets. These are the same people who actually believe the Russians still have an army. They still do, on paper. And please don’t insult paper tigers.
It could be a mixture of wishful thinking, trolls, and people who love numbers. Because of numbers, the Federation still has a lot of tanks. Granted, most are second and third tier. Realize, that the Russians keep everything. Why do some of us joke that we will still see T-34/85 before this is over.
Ah, the warm feeling of the second great patriotic war in great patriotic war armor! I hope the farmers can secure a few for museums. We are already seeing Maxim Machine Guns and Mossin-Nagants, so I am half-joking…
