I have been going on Youtube to see video's of Russian equipment that has been destroyed. What surprised me was the fact that much of the equipment is well out of date. Most of the tanks that I have seen are updated T-72's T-80's and some of the older model T-90's. I had wondered how the hand held weapons were raining such destruction on the Russian armor and it is because much of it is out of date equipment that would stand little chance against modern tanks that are in use by the NATO members. Beyond the age of the equipment is the failed logistics of the Russian's. I saw a picture of a farmer from Ukraine sitting in a completely fine Russian tank that had run out of fuel and then abandoned by the Russian's. What is the old saying, logistics wins wars. For those who have ever read about WWII, remember the "Red Ball Express" which kept our military fueled and armed during WWII in Europe.
