This is the most desperate and yet wasteful move that Putin has made with this war. So, Russia has revamped its crew from the Admiral Kuznetsov aircraft carrier and turned it into a mechanized infantry battalion. These crew were valuable because they had specialized training, and years of experience. This carrier was the pride of Russia's navy and had the best people possible running it. Now they are sent into the meat grinder. It reminds me of when Germany threw its navy crew and repurposed them for its army to keep the Soviets away. Now things have reversed and its both ironic and quite wasteful.

So Russia already entering the Volksgrenadier stage of it's army? Next stage, Volkssturm. After that, only Werwolf is left to scraping the barrel... but since those were Guerrilla units to fight off any invading force, that would be more in case Russia breaks apart with it's states revolting and try to break off. |
lol, well if we are gonna go there then both armies use crappy prisoner troops. So, to a degree both are in the first stage of degradation. I don't think that either will decline past that though. If things get too bad then one side will sue for peace.
