Russian Defence Minister Belousov said the military has increased contract recruitment targets to support offensive operations. He added that over 10,000 motorcycles, ATVs, and buggies will be purchased to “increase the speed of tactical group movement.”
Diminishing Russian forces reduced to pedalling their way to certain death.
And how many donkeys?
They have to do this because human resources are the cheapest. Why put something so cheap into an expensive IFV? They use 5 liters of gasoline in a motorcycle like that, and over 500 liters of diesel in a tank like that. War must become cheaper for the Russians.
With what money?
oil, gas, uranium
With Hungarian money. And India’s money. From China.
Russia's strategic reserve nearly exhausted. Don't know exactly without searching. Businesses forced to take on unsustainable levels of debt to stay operational & banks forced to give them low interest rates. Public services slashed. A house of cards, but no one knows when it will fall.
At the pace things go, that won't last more than a couple of months, at best, before each and everyone of those vehicles is destroyed.
Belousov should just shoot all those soldiers that he will be sending to die himself.
Cool. They're fun to watch burn.
"Russian Offense Minister". There, fixed that for you.
What happened to all of Muscovy's heavy iron 😉
What a creep; they even claim anymore, that they buy real army stuff; fckn ruSSians
these idiots love to send thousands of soldiers to their deaths
I'm ok with that.
Yeah, true, but it is a tradegy on many levels. 🇷🇺 is willing to throw away life - tradegy. 🇺🇦 is forced to kill and maimed everyone thrown at them, with injuries, including mental health issues, and even death, to themselves. 🇷🇺 may succeed in forcing the front back, in spite of the Russian losses 😔
10000 motorbikes being purchased because it's all the busted ass country can afford... Even using ruzzias obviously dubious numbers their economy is fucked!
“increase the speed of tactical group movement” to hell and underground levels via FPV calmification :)
😂😂😂
Mad Max, Russian style, becomes official policy now.
I hope he knows how shameful this is. The mighty Soviet army left them tens of thousands of armored vehicles and now they have been reduced to buying motorcycles and buggies....
he knows 🙂💛💙
The Ruzzian Snail Army
he too looks ridiculous in that uniform. Increasing targets? Right. But will it succeed? Every day that passes, is another day of defeat, another day of probable death for front line rascists.
Economist and career apparatchik, he was never in the military.
From T-14 to cheap motorcycles in 3 years
Ukrainian scrap metal dealers are ecstatic.
What, are IFVs officially out of fashion?
