    Turns out that cheap and reliable weapons that Russia is able to pump out in mass quantities work a lot better than fancy artisanally produced NATO weapons.

    apparently we need to re-learn this every so often
    1000 dudes with half-decent pikes will beat 50 dudes with fancy swords
    500 stamped out tanks will beat 10 over-engineered tanks
    100 cheap speedboats loaded with explosives will beat an aircraft carrier
    etc, etc.
