A #Russian source:
1/
A scattered description of a #DNR infantry coy (Feb-Sept 2022)
⁃ Feb: combat experience: 3-5 men
⁃ any military service: further 15
⁃ coy HQ: 2 reserve officers, no experience
⁃ in 6 months: shrank from 100+ to 60+ men
2/
⁃ medical verification: positive if younger than 70 yo, a must is head, two hands, two legs
- majority: no leaves for 6 months
- weapons: AK-74, no mortars, two grenade launchers
- no bulletproof vests, comms, NVGs, drones, mines, winter BDUs
- one binocular
3/
⁃ unit initially responsible for rear area security, now it’s #Rosgvardya responsibility, coy/regt went to frontline attached to a regular 🇷🇺 BTG (50 men, incl. about 25 officers, no new personnel for 6 months)
⁃ coy covers 1500m frontline, no forward fire controllers

1/ #Russian artillery operator opinion on combat #drones:
⁃ from platoon to brigade, all units need drones
⁃ from the D-Day
⁃ 🇷🇺 HQs disagree/ignore the issue
⁃ remedy: if you (a 🇷🇺 tactical cdr) insist, write an official request
⁃ the #UAV shortage in 🇷🇺 army is a disaster
2/
- AliExpress is the quickest solution
- Regular 🇷🇺 procedure to obtain a drone: 1. decision on the deputy MoD level, 2. some classified institutes tasked, 3. Agree tactical/technical requirements, 4. Sign a contract,
3/ 5. Prepare 30+ licences, approvals, and two suitcases of shit-value docs, 1-5: takes two years. 6. Do you think you may start production?
⁃ Yes, but: 1. it must be all Russia-made, 2. -50/+50 Celsius to all batteries & optics, 3. reliability factor must be multiplied by 30,

Book Title: Atrocities of the collective#Putin.
1/ soon a term "#Russian" becomes a stigma. They'll buy foreign passports and be ashamed writing down their names. Word "Russian" will become a synonym of SS & nazi, a toxic anti-christian expression.
2/ on Hitler/Putin comparison:
H. murdered Jews, Roma; P. murders Russians.
In short, P. will never achieve what H. did.
There's no future for the nation (🇷🇺), if it blames Obama & the West for no infrastructure & no electricity.
3/ Russia is unable to create a country that protects human & civil rights. 90% support P.
There is no law in 🇷🇺, but poverty & "culture". And this 🇷🇺 culture makes them feel the dominant nation. 🇷🇺 commits crimes against own citizens like Navalny, Politkovskaya or Litvinenko.
