re: #225 Targetpractice

Immediate replacement? Dragging old tanks from the Cold War era stockpile and getting them running again.

Long-term replacement? Depends, is 5-10 years long-term enough?

Russia relying on western tech to produce core equipment. Seems like they’ve got a natsec supply chain issue. They can’t produce high tech equipment in-country. They rely on third party suppliers?

And they’re going to replace the tanks that failed so badly in Ukraine with even older tanks that are just as deficient? All their talk of having superior weapons is revealed as just that. They might have numbers theoretically in reserve, but their gear isn’t going to handle the tanks or anti-tank weapons any better than they’ve done to date.
