Weapons getting obsolete not the gun artillery is centuries old and like the tank will not disappear in future wars. If it can kill efficiently cheap it will be used no matter how old.

I'm divided-In some cases I would prefer Trump to win and in other cases I preferred him to lose. This is one of the reasons:

The fall of Vukhledar would be a sensitive loss for Ukraine, but it is unlikely to lead to a major Russian breakthrough. The symbolic value of Vukhledar, where Ukraine has held out for over two years, far outweighs its strategic value! Vukhledar does not play a major role in Ukrainian logistics, so its impact on the defence of the rest of the province is limited. Also, the area north of the city lends itself poorly to a rapid Russian advance. The terrain consists mainly of unsheltered arable land, with no cover from trees or buildings. Moreover, in the autumn months, the ground will become muddier, making it difficult to deploy heavy equipment such as tanks and armoured vehicles.

The Ukrainian army unit defending the city has been on the front line for more than a year without a break and is exhausted. The Ukrainians are also struggling with ammunition shortages. In addition, Ukrainians in Vukhledar suffer from the constant threat of Russian aerial bombs. Since this spring, Russia has been shelling cities along the front line with glide bombs. Voehledar also suffered the city no longer exists, it has been completely razed to the ground again.

I'm a little sceptic to these reports on Russian economy and the expert who tell us they are going to collapse economically

Russia’s finite resources, strained by inflation, labor shortages, dwindling stockpiles, and sanctions, make it difficult to sustain its war effort beyond 2025-2026, as per military analyst Anders Puck Nielsen

All those factors are based on facts (own public Russian figures) and in general hurt the Russian economy. For example, inflation is sky-high so the central bank raise the interest rate to cool the economy to lower inflation resulting in a sky-high interest rate because the State (Putin) pumps huge sums of money in the economy for the war production with the only result that the economy overheats therefore inflation rises. The Russian economy is in a loop running ever faster to a disaster, when it happens is hard to tell, but it will happen soon. Russian economy is small and on a Chinese infuse this can not go on for years.

So we can expect an economical crash in Russia within the next 2-3 years from now.

What comes first-The lack of material and troops or economical crash ?

I think when they reach the end of their refurbish production, they gone need so many resources chains will break for some material they already out of stock. Or when the cycle of pumping money in and heating up the economy too much that the central bank losses control think this is nearer than we think.
