Of course they would have, that's exactly my point : Russia is not Kuweit nor Irak. Doesn't take rocket science to figure that out, does it ? Btw as a Fin you should be aware that inferior material doesn't necessary mean that you're screwed. I thought the most important lesson in any army was "the terrain decides, either you adapt or you're done no matter what".

Yes, you have to know how you can use your materiel to the max effect.
Im apprehensive to say everything i would like on this subject.
But their tactics dont suit here for exsample, we use some Russian eguipment but in totally different manner.

Do like this:

Muhhhhhh! and they stopped.

Oh, they took the cattle withem from the base.:up:

"Fresh milk boys, come and take a squoze!"

It's their way home when they survive their tank exploding. Chances are that they won't need it though because they are driving a coffin. Notice I didn't say if their tank explodes - that's a given.

Also the invading country would not only have to face an army but also asymetrical warfare from the population or even trained militias, so comparing the thickness of armor of 2 tanks is really a nerd thing but surely not the real deal (not saying that for you particularly though).

At any rate it's good to keep the head cool, being proud and overconfident is good for the people watching war on TV, but in the real situation it's not really healthy so to speak :D

Even i can keep my head cool talking about this, mine and others lifes can depend on it.:rotfl:
And i said before in some thread that im pissed the Finnish T-72 were scrabbed, they would have had some good use in some situations.

Captions said it was Russian.

Regardless which side - same equipment. Same coffin. No protection. Designed for numbers, not for quality.

Ah, those subfolks.

Check out which type of busted tank is that? Hint for mariners(T-72)
Check out which place is that where the hulk is? Hint for mariners(Tshinval)

We have to remeber that both sides had the same tanks more or less. I know Russians got hit harder than they give out. Im waiting on reliable reports on what happened on the Georgian side. Im suspecting their intel, doctrine, command was totally off, needs a total overhaul. These should be their strengths, they create the moral.
To my knowledge their individual skills should be good.

Look at the bright side. Georgia will now become a member of NATO, and we can finially equip them with good stuff to kick this Ruskkie weenies back to where they belong - Their holes.

Absolutely! :rotfl:

Besides, with all that crappy Soviet equipment around, they would be reluctant to buy real weapons systems. Now there is nothing stopping them.
