I'm not in the armed services. But even I can imagine that this type of cold turkey swadeshi attitude is suicidal. The military adversaries for India are now equipped to beat state of the art tech. Indian industries are not capable of rising to the challenge any time soon.

PS: This may be a conversation for a different thread. So let's park this for a different time :cheers:
I know what you are saying, but we need to start somewhere.

Yes, you are right, start a thread and I will join you.

If Russia pull out, thats fine, EU will help them rebuild and arm them again. Germany is spending 100 billion on weapons this year. If there is no Russia threatening them, they can Gove that to Ukraine for a few years, in the form of investment etc.

All new cities and factories owned by germans. Its fine.
Ukraine will be re build with the full support of west. With full access to eu membership. Eu already approved any Ukrainian citizens work in eu for 3 years and become permanent citizens after that if they want. Canada has announced it will invite unlimited number of Ukrainian as long they want to come here. There are talks of get rid of even visa for Ukrainian citizens to come to canada. Thats the level of support Ukrainian have in the west.

Russia one the other hand is done and economy only get worse in coming years.

President Zelensky's net worth is reported to be $596 million.

Not bad for someone in a poor eastern European country.

Mig-29s and SU-25s looking like a real possibility for Ukraine. Supplied by Poland. Poland would receive F-16s
Either vipers or hornets. The Poles will be glad to be rid of their Russian junk, so long as the US guarantees a fighter supply.

He's a former actor turned politician. Not really worth mentioning.

If Russia is really losing 5% to 10% of equipment sent out and presumably also soldiers, then Russia must rethink the war. They wouldn't last long until totally depleted and whether objectives by then are achieved?

Perhaps this is information from Ukrainian side or a side with interest in perpetuating that false information.

If so, then Putin is potentially the worst traitor for Russia and Russian people IF this "information" is accurate and Russia doesn't re-position and find other strategies for their objectives. Putin willingly and stubbornly losing 5% to 10% Russian military on every move means roughly 2 to 3 weeks before depleted. That willingness to lose things for hardly any real gain means Putin is doing this intentionally. Information needs to be doubted and then doubted, and then ignored until more clarity and further verifications build us a better resolution of the picture of reality.

Half of big name items of Russia is in the Ukrainian theatre.

The rest is "reserve," but more like equipment in storage, and light motorised mounted on light APCs, and trucks.

If Russia flees disorderly, the lose nearly all of their heavy MLRS, more than half of mobile air defence, and god know how much logistics, comms, and armour.

It may well be they sacrificed nearly all of their best tanks on Ukraine with most of them not firing a single shot.

Russia lost nearly all of their best tanks on Ukraine with most of them not firing a single shot?

How could anyone here know this? Why wouldn't they fire a single shot unless UAF or Ukrainian operated drones have struck all the many thousands of tanks without those tanks firing a shot.

Western ATGMs have obliterated Russian armor. I believe a US Special Forces officer said Javelins had a 90% kill rate.

There is a website which does killcount verification on both sides
