The way they pretend like this is fundamentally new is laughable to me. Feels like they’re finally admitting their enemy is competent right as a loss for Ukr is looming in order to save face in defeat. But fundamentally these weapons and their doctrines crystallized like two years ago
I guess they need a bridge from dumb Russian orcs are losing million of people using meatwave assaults against superior NATO tactics to AFU is collapsing and Russian army is bigger than ever.
not really a new tactic. also technically four steps. Attack, block, saturate, assault.
I find it amusing how UK media is now acknowledging that Russian army uses tactics though, and that they’re effective. Gone are the days of them glibly talking about meatwave assaults.
I mean they had to throw in a bit of the meatwave assault line right at the end. Something only meatheads would believe if they had zero comprehension of the necessary training and coordination required to launch, sustain, and follow through with such methodical tactics.
Big “we’re getting the shit kicked out of us but look at how unsophisticated and primitive they are.” energy

I think for a while, the average westerner who thought about such things earnestly thought the Russians were just kinda milling about accidentally near military equipment, unable to be directed due to the Russian brainpan
A liberal wandered in to hexbear recently who claimed Russia does meat wave attacks and after dodging the question a bunch of times coughed up a video of five guys crossing a field on foot as evidence. I think the average westerner still believes that stuff.
That’s pretty interesting. It sounds like it’s a tactic that will be difficult to counter. It also sounds horrible. Effectively it’s, kill everyone and then take the land.
Yep, no such a thing as humane warfare
