Russia has lost virtually all of its front line tanks and too many armored vehicles. It will take a long time for Russia to rebuild. If it can.

Russia has a shortage of artillery shells. It's been reduced to buying ammo from N. Korea - and some of that has blown up in the barrels of its cannons.

Russia has had many of its fighting age men leave Russia and is having problems 'filling the ranks'. Russia also lost most of its trainers and young officers early in the war. Ukraine has similar man-power problems . . . but the Russians are driving their 'fine young men' into a meat grinder with the Ukrainians cranking the handle.

And Ukrainian mama's and daddy's too.

Was that a good use of our ~ $120 billion? Because that's about all it bought.
