The current war just shows how important technology is over bodies. Russia has an excess of bodies and lacks enough technology to outfit them, and so they are struggling against a far inferior force with far more technological capability supplied by the West.
Extremely clueless post. It actually doesn't show that. Before this war people thought having the latest gadgets and high end equipment would play a crucial role, in reality what's playing a role is having the capability to make and provide and field weapons and shells. This war is expanding an unimaginable amount of shells and ammo. What Ukrainians need is not latest technology but rather hundreds of pieces of hardware like howitzers, tanks, MLRS and of course the millions of artillery shells and ammo that comes along with it.
This is a 20th century war with just better tactical recon because now we have small drones. They are struggling because the collective west is supplying and crowdfunding a massive amount of armament. We alone sent 113Bn last year which is more than the annual expenditure of Russia on their military.
Now count the Europeans+ whoever else sent equipment.
