At the rate Russia is loosing tanks, they are out of repairable old Soviet tanks in storage in half a year or so. In a year they are at the number of casulties of UK in WW2. Ukraine just has to hold the line for a year and Russia is going to be wide open. As long as Western aid continues this is a very viable strategy. I fear that Russia is going to go full on human wave attacks, as soon as they are out of decent weapons. They are already bad, but this might get a lot worse for the average Russian.

"Going to go human wave tactics"

Bro, that's been their doctrine for the last year. They've sent something like 70,000 prisoners to an early grave because of that doctrine.

Sure, but basically only when they attack a large settlement. They at the moment do not tend to attack Ukranian field positions this way and you do not see them do it in the South, were the land is flat and open. You are going to see that happen in a year or so.
