What if Soviet Union won in World War II only thanks to allies support, which currently receiving Ukraine, not Russia and we clearly see, who is winning? Commonly known that during World War II the Soviet Union sacrificed far more soldiers than needed to win that war. Before the Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union, taking advantage of Stalin's paranoia, German intelligence spread rumors that Soviet generals were preparing for a coup, after what Stalin ordered to kill his best generals and tacticians, what came with cost of a lot of their soldiers lives during that war.

The Soviets were famous for being able to sacrifice their lives for an ideology, but the big question is whether they are capable of anything else? The war in Ukraine shows us that they are doing poorly, that a totalitarian regime with no feedback from lower ranks fails to adapt flexibly, that lower-ranking soldiers are afraid to tell about the mistakes of their leaders, just to save their heads on shoulders, after what their armies getting defeated with cost of large amount of causalities and vehicles.

While Ukraine wins via flexibility, where every soldier can have his opinion and to note what is wrong. Where Russian side is fighting by the book, undoubtedly following every, even most ridiculous or idiotic order or theory, which is good only 'on paper'.

During this war, Ukraine invented a new type of 'military force' - agricultural division, known to the whole world today as the Ukrainian Tractor Forces, or ordinary farmers who deliver new tanks to the Ukrainian side, for which the Russians even destroyed some of their tractors.

I've found this picture somewhere on Twitter, where guys trolled about Ukrainian Tractor Forces, after another one, of many Russian tanks captures. |
Watch careful, as Ukrainian tractors never sleep! Newest military force in the world saving for this country plenty of funds, delivering enemy tanks and IFVs to allied side.
#Ukraine: The Ukrainian SOF managed to capture a nearly complete Russian Buk-M2 air defense battery in #Kyiv Oblast, including a 9A317 TELAR, 9A316 TEL and 9S18M1 acquisition radar. Operating condition is unlikely, however losing them is anyways tangible for the Russian army. pic.twitter.com/RnZWVFKx8h

Ukraine is in dire need of more tanks for defense and to drive the enemy out of its territory.

For this they take even most rubbish and old enemy vehicles, tanks or IFVs of very old generations, which Russia pulled to their country, like having no better ones. But some are pretty not bad, like this not so old BMP-3, which careless Russians just sunk, probably after one more party with Vodka.

And there are many such cases.
#UkraineWar: Ukraine is now visually confirmed to have captured 1000 vehicles and pieces of (heavy) military equipment from Russia.
