      Thats because the russian army couldn't provide a proper uniform for there soldiers dude , couldn't even feed there soldiers properly, in the 1990s 20 to 30% of the men were illiterate they could not write there own name, they couldn't read or write well , in the 70s and 80s it was double that , they had to have men stood at major intersections in the russian german sector in germany to point logistics in the right direction because they couldent read the russian road signs . Plus the majority of russian trucks were broke down on the side of the road due to bad maintenance. The Russian army is a joke , the good thing they have is nuclear weapons and maby even they would malfunction due to under funding and bad maintenance.

      VSR was the most prevalent camo pattern on M88 style uniform (afghanka) in both first and second Chechen wars, which was probably the last pattern the soviets designed. Flora camo was starting to replace it during the second war, but it still used the M88. The MVD troops(now- Russian National Guard) had varying camo, and uniform types that were made anywhere from late soviet right up to the second Chechen war by private firms, which is why quality was never very consistent.
      The Soviet stuff is long lasting, (even the disposable KZS over-camo), which is why it’s still used today by donbass rebels and non western former Soviet territories. If a lot more Russian conscripts are needed, the stockpiles of soviet uniforms will more than suffice compared to the constantly shifting uniforms fabricated for profit in the west.
      Even the Ukrainians are raiding their own(some would also say even their Transnistrian neighbors as well) Soviet stockpiles in absence of the ‘latest/greatest’ western gear/weapons.

Soon they have new subs too.They have a good gunship design in the form of Ka-52.Of course they have their fetishes like the Kuznetsov,or Tu-160s,or Kirovs .But who doesn't?(Khm Khm...Zumwalt,LCS,M6 Linebacker,F-15X)Their tanks are subpar,inferior to western tanks .Their air defense are the best, maybe the Iron Dome is better. I am looking foward to the S-350 capabilities once it comes into service.Also the Admiral-Gorshkov -class frigates are excellent ships in their weight class.The textbook multi-purpose frigate in the 21st century. Hell they would be an excellent addition in the US navy too.

      В процессе кондитерского изделия он перекачивает расплавленный сахар между пластинами затвердевшего сахара на леденцовой корке планеты, где он охлаждается и кристаллизуется в горные образования из леденцов. Добывается развитой расой человекоподобных сахарных муравьев, которые затем съедают сахар и выделяют его в виде систематически размещенных капель, которые после высыхания создают сотовую структуру, из которой формируются их сложные мегаполисы.
      Конфетный вулкан извергается пирокластическим потоком, погребая близлежащий город в кипящей патоке, отправляя сахарную вату тефру на 6 сладких миль в стратосферу, закрывая солнце и вытягивая влагу, запертую в леденце, вызывая конденсацию на обычно сухой планете. и сделать все это липким и грубым.
      Раса гуманоидных муравьев, неспособных откладывать яйца в липкий сахар, вымерла, а их цивилизации были принесены в жертву.
      Их руины сохранились до сих пор, окаменевшие в саркофаге из карамелизированных конфет и погребенные под листом спрессованной ириски толщиной в милю, образовавшейся за миллиард лет после катастрофических извержений вулканических конфет. 🍬

    Remember reading the news items of this war as it progressed. The Chechnyans really stuck it to the Russians with series of ambushes on vehicle colons. Particularly in the cities like Grozny.

      Yes they did good ambushes. But when russians fire shell after shell into a big city until its dust then its no use. The hardest fighting when russians actually lost the most were on mountains. But it didn't take them as long as other countries fighting insurgents to take them out. Fighting such a irregular forces that can just be a combatant when they wish is never easy. Russians just decided the quicker but more costly route. I believe the ukranians wont be able to do any succesful counter attack in the future and their armed forces will slowly be drained or equipment. Thats atleast looking at their newest counter offensive.

      The Russians have just defeated the infamous Ukrainian winter/spring/summer offensive without the Ukrainians event being able to reach the first line of defences. The Ukrainians best troops - NATO trained, NATO equipped, NATO led - literally couldn't even progress through the lightly held pickets and observation posts the Russians have in front of the defence lines. So the Russians seem to be adapting just fine.
      What doesn't adapt is the propaganda. The Germans coped hard in the late 1940s and 1950s that they hadn't been defeated by a superior, mechanised combined arms force led by excellent generals but by endless hordes of mindless "Ivan's" charging blindly forward in human waves. 75 year's later and NATO is still coping with exactly the same memes.
      The Chechens have a reputation as good fighters, but now they and the Russians are fighting NATO together. So, NATO's problems just get worse and worse.

Which essentially jump started modern Russia. On another hand US military budget is a black hole of corruption and waste (not that US military is bad, it just costs far more than it should).
