Well murica is still scared of them so yeah.
Not really. If they fixed their shithole and made their country worth fighting for their troops would have better morale and they would have more money to use in their cold war army.
has russia ever won a war?
>>29829166
once, but it cost them like 30 million people
I mean.... I know they were always strong in numbers ,but in terms of military technology ,equipment and training....for example lets compare Russia in WW2 and todays Russia , are they closer to the most modern militaries in terms of technology and training then they were back during WW2 ?
Maybe the small special units and a few squadrons of their air force.
They don't have the logistics to properly train and support an effective military. They also have conscription and treat them like shit.
>Russia's proxy war in Ukraine basically drained their military capability. They had to stop it all in order to go play around in Syria for a few months.

Yes, technically speaking.

No.
Their lackluster performance in both Georgia and Ukraine tells you as much.
