Not if you value your sovereignty but there will still be plenty of tin pot dictators in Africa and Asia who will be willing to buy old hardware for knocked down price.

Russia had one customer willing to buy the SU-57 but when India saw Russian couldn't deliver on it's promises it pulled out the $6b venture which has starved the SU-57 program of cash.

There will be no old hardware left, it's being destroyed at an unbelievable rate.

They have burned through all the good stuff and are now in 40 year old tanks

They are even using the missiles that that would normally carry a nuclear warhead

Russia are running on fumes, how long before their allies stop supplying them, they could burn through their stocks to.

I think they have 2 combat serviceable T-14s and one of those was videoed recently having issues :s (T-14 is also not in active service).

Does seem they are pulling more T-90Ms out of storage to send to Ukraine though.

They're pulling tanks from Belarus, seem they will burn through the Belarus stock pile now.

My goodness there is a drone footage vid out there of some Russians getting attacked by either accurate arty or some other munition, a couple get injured and as they are getting helped away a direct hit on 3 of them just blows them to bits, parts raining down on the 2 survivors. I'm not sure what they were hit with but the accuracy was incredible. Brutal footage.

There was Ukrainian on saying how their artillery is so precice it can target troops with pinpoint arty from miles away.

He did mention one strike that got 300 in one go. Insane what the GPS stuff can do, . You cant just hope it misses any more, because it doesn't miss anymore.

The image of Putin driving over the bridge has become a meme

Don't see why that bridge is still intact, it has no real benefits for Ukraine to keep as all it does is link Crimea to Russia, a link they really need to sever.,

Surely cutting off that route to Crimea is pretty important when they want to retake it.
 
Then give ukraine some kab1500L bombs; they can be fired from the SU24 and carry a 1000kg HE warhead that can penetrate several meters of concrete, it will slice through the road and blow the roadway and train line off the pillars

Shame that didn't land on Putin on his drive.

Its been discussed before here, but the main reason (IMO) is to give the Russians somewhere to retreat when UA go in from the North. You don't want to be fighting troops who can't run away.

If Ukraine can do this with such old tech imagine how quickly China or the US could deal with Russia. Pretty embarrassing for them right now.

Especially stark given the bases are among only a handful that can be used to launch strategic and tactical nuclear bombs loaded planes. You'd think these places and the planes would be the highest and most important military assets next to ICBMs and nuclear bomb capable submarines.

Russias defences aren't great then, I fully believe if someone launched a nuke at the Kremlin right now it would get straight through because chances are their anti air defences are either not running because they are in repair or were sent to ukraine or are simply turned off to save cost or because someone didn't want to report to the higher ups that they have issues

I think its about time the Kerch Bridge is totally destroyed, with winter setting in and no supplies getting in via the Bridge, and squeezing the road supply line at Mariupol. That will be a game changer
 
The Germans today conducted raids on multiple locations across the country; arresting dozens of members of a neo nazi group for planning a coup to overthrow the government and surprise, surprise, among those arrested are several Russian citizens

As discussed before, China is also a paper tiger same as Russia. If you remove nuclear weapons from the equation then the US/UK will dominate RUS/China in a proper war

You can't remove nuclear weapons from the equation. Russia has proved the value of MAD to anyone who wants to see.

China is increasing its nuclear capacity now, and the future of START looks wobbly, to say the least.

Moving from a two way stand off to three way is potentially very bad news.
