Russian "military": a paper tiger

Ok, so far Russia has lost:

Ukraine
>over 500 soldiers killed
>undisclosed amount of trucks and armored vehicles (used by both the Russian Armed Forces and the pro-Russian separatists)

Syria
>20 soldiers killed
>35 contractors killed
>2 civilian personnel killed
>3 warplanes (one shot down)
>5 helicopters (three shot down)
>undisclosed amount of trucks and armored vehicles (used by both the Russian Armed Forces and the Syrian Armed Forces)

It's safe to assume that Russia is no longer a threat. Their conventional military as well as power projection are laughable at best.

China will soon take the spot as the second most powerful military.

Did Russia not pretty much take over the only part of Ukraine that has anything worth taking and then lock the parts where Ukraine could have drawn resources from and been a threat?

Did they not actually SUCCEED in Syria, without unbalancing it?

Those are actual victories.

That the US have a bigger military doesn't mean shit if all they achieve is defeat.

Honestly, I'm not a russian fan or something, but it's pretty objective to note that they're doing military and power projection significantly better, albeit they still lack resources.

Russia has always been quantity as quality for military doctrine. By their standards, the losses you have listed are insignificant.As long as they get their goal.
Their presence in Syria is mostly air support and that has turned the tide.

The last time U.S fought a somewhat formidable foe, they lost over 50,000 troops.

Keep thinking that and distribute this info plz.

>ukraine
Sage

Those are marginal losses. Ukraine had jets, tanks, artillery, balistic missiles.

In Syria the "rebels" are well armed by their Western benefactors. Yet, Russia has pretty much got what it needed from Ukraine. Similarly, the Syrian government is in a very good position right now thanks to the Russian support.

Mad

Fuck

I love how OP is comparing them to China and the anti-American chucklefucks automatically release their bowel movements

As long as China uses mostly old soviet tech, no, they won't.


When they actually get their shit together they'll easily outshine everyone in the world combined, which is why we need to nuke those gooks before it's too late.

This.

Trump/Putin chink removal squad 2017.

>ukraine

>thread has nothing to do with the U.S.
>Canadian immediately shits out unwarranted anti-U.S. sentiment

Fuck off back to Ottawa

RF, US, CH, all too big too attack. So it doesn't matter how big or if "paper" only.

Wrong. Only since bolsheviks.

>Ukraine
no such thing

>over 500 soldiers killed

Nice meme

>Syria
pic related (map being a little bit old)

Retarded georgians think like you too.
But 08.08.08 is 08.08.08.

Fuck off back to chinar.

They annexed Crimea with no casualties and are currently winning through proxy militants in Donetsk, no issue whatsoever. Not to mention their support role in Syria literally turned the tide of war with small casualties.

Since WW2 you italians have lost all right to talk about military matters

Italy has tons of cockholes rapefugees.

Turkey is literally allowing Russia to win in Syria.

>ukraine

no such thing

Man that's just the dumbest shit i've ever fucking heard

You never heard yourself talk?

I think saying that Turkey is letting the enemy win when their ultimate goal since the start of the war was regime change in Syria is a little more retarded. It's not like they shoveled so much fucking money into ISIS and the FSA. It's also not like they have a tactical interest to quell Kurdish presence in Syria.

If you think that even after all that they're fucking "letting them win" and not losing then you' are batshit tomato brain retarded

Fool!

Haven't you ever read Sun Tsu?

>Their conventional military as well as power projection are laughable at best.

Yes, and they are fully aware of this. That's why they are going full unconventional and embrace 4th generation warfare.

If you really think the Meme Tank, the PAK MEME, and the Meme-400/500/600/999 Missile System are russia's true strength then you are mistaken.

This guy is right you know?

>Ukraine
>over 500 soldiers killed

OP is a rapefugee cockhole.

Only ukrainians I know work on trucks stops and they're women.

found the roach
lately they've been infesting /sg/ a lot more than they used to, who opened the flood gates?

Are you really sure that everybody can recognize your runes?

Are you aware of your heritage? Maybe you are a cockhole too, take some DNA tests.

UK is already considered the 2nd strongest military by European Think Tanks. In terms of all round strength in a military situation (resources, war, man power etc) then China is 2nd anyway and only let down by lack of oil.

precision guided bombs are expensive and essential if you fly hgih up out of range, the US supplies ISIS with GPS region locked missile launchers and they manage to shoot down low flying targets dropping unguided cheap bombs.

not a real test of hardware or military

They own Crimea now an are bigger than Israel without losing 1 life. Compared to you Italian scum (who could not even hold Lybia in 2nd WW) they are supreme.

Lol, Russian military is the strongest in the world, for conventional ground combat.

US curbstomp them in the air, but the Russians have AA that leaves the US without their only advantage.

Cockhole is a state of mind. Hohols are fine.

>Who could not hold France, Czechia, Norway, Baltic states, Poland, Ukraine, half of European Russia, and even Albania
Oh ja ja

>annex crimea
>create breakaway republic of novorossia
>defend Syria from NATO and CIA backed terrorists

Yeah no sorry, Russia is wiping the floor with nato

Fucking Italy opens a thread about who is bad militarly :DDD FUG

>500
Why not five thousand?

>Ukraine
>actual soldiers in an actual war
End this meme. They're not properly equipped, they don't have proper support and communication, how can you expect them to be efficient. You try fighting a war while cosplaying, you tell me if you survive that or not.

based

...

We have a missile - the Satan 2, which just 1 of them that could vaporise your shitty country - in fact an area as big as France.

Respect the bear, do not poke the bear.

Also, stop importing niggers Italy. You got bigger problems than Russia.

i can :3

So... pretty much nothing?

The Russian army has even failed against micro-states like Chechnya, Georgia or Dagestan.

what is this russian meme/mascot supposed to be???

Russian anons (maybe even shills?) on Krautchan were smugly denying their troops presense in Crimea and Donetsk/Lugansk.
Russians finally did learn their lesson from war with Georgia tho, they had a drastic military reform with 2 army groups disbanded and new equipment built for the quick wars of tomorrow. I think not many commoners in the west even know about that.

If you mean the animal, it's rooster.

it's actually kinda funny because most people here don't really mind Russia, with a lot of them wanting to improve our relationship despite the EU and NATO telling us otherwise
OP must be a flaming faggot commie who just discovered the cool kids' sekrit club, or he's just shitposting

nice proxy hohol
