In the US press: To quickly defeat Ukraine, the Russian army will not have enough trucks

For transfer to the Russian-Ukrainian border weapons, vehicles, ammunition and much more for an army of 100 thousand servicemen, Moscow used hundreds of trains, including thousands of wagons. And if Russian President Vladimir Putin gives the order to the Armed Forces to move to Donbass, the same trains will deliver goods to the front line, and also take out equipment in need of restoration from the combat zone.

This is how the American columnist David Ax argues in his article published in Forbes magazine.



He believes that this dependence of the Russian army on rail transport is one of its most vulnerable spots. After all, trains will not be able to deliver goods to the very front line; for this, vehicles are needed.

The ex is sure that if Moscow starts military action against Kiev, the Kremlin should not hope for a quick victory. After all, to quickly defeat Ukraine, the Russian army will not have enough trucks.

The US press draws attention to the fact that Russia is huge, and the quality of its roads is worse than the condition of western highways. This is what made her rely heavily on rail transport.

Therefore, the American author advises the Armed Forces of Ukraine to focus on the destruction of Russian military trucks, without which, according to Aix, the offensive of the Russian Armed Forces would be doomed to a fiasco.

In the United States, there are also opposite opinions. For example, in December last year, United States Marine Corps veteran Robert Lee said that a massive attack by Russian troops on the Ukrainian Armed Forces would lead to the defeat of the Ukrainian army in eastern Ukraine in about half an hour.

      And let America show itself, try. Tsykotno? For the sake of such "dear" guests we will give a lift by horses. We'll pull ourselves up.

      We have come - our Kamaz trucks have already been counted and ah-ah! how they worry about us that our 100 thousand will remain without security. Or is it that they wind up the skakuas so that "Don't be afraid! Forward! They don't have any cartridges anyway!"

        As a horse-drawn transport, we have horses today, even if there are very few requisitions from farms. Previously, there were storage bases for steam locomotives - almost all of them were corroded, plundered, and it will take years to restore (here, of course, there are questions for the departments) But in principle, the equipment is heaped up. If only at the bases to start putting it in order in advance. We have aircraft stored in the open air, it is better to keep silent about the automotive equipment.

              In modern conditions, it makes sense to exempt off-road vehicles and tractors from part or all of taxes if they are never operated near large cities and at the DOP or stored there in good order and accounted for.
              Auto collectors keep rare SUVs in their auto collections in good condition without use. Such cars are cultural value by law, they are taxed quite expensively, and it makes sense to have discounts for collectible off-road equipment and tractors.

              Nothing changed. Only earlier it was necessary to register yourself, but now they automatically register. In the application for registration, there seems to be some kind of jackdaw. I had two Niva and three UAZ. Here the current one can easily be asked to Ukraine.

            And tomorrow may be like with AvtoVAZ. It seems like KamAZ was built with public money, but once it turned out to be a subsidiary of the Renault Group. And now, instead of his original designs, he collects disposable renos. True, they say there is still some kind of design department there, though it’s not clear what they design there. Just as soon, with KamAZ, we will either install Mercian cabs, or Chinese boxes, axles and engines. Russian relatives are somehow not very fond of them. As an example, let's look at the modernization of the railway to Sovgavan. Dump trucks are entirely "Chinese" and "Swedes", tractors and excavators are dragged on MANA trawls, and yes, TK and "shifts" are KamAZ, although Urals come across. For 20 Chinese, Swedish, German dump trucks, the Russian KAMAZ is at best 1, or even 1 out of 30, and even as the drivers say, I will change the new KAMAZ to a shabby SHACMAN !!! So today for someone yesterday already becomes. Especially considering that the new SHACMAN 20-ton costs 7400, and the new KamAZ 16-ton costs 7480, although KamAZ with a Daimler engine, with a Chinese engine is a lemon cheaper, and with a Kamaz engine it’s generally 5, and a 620-ton truck is like a Chinese. True, in the description of the checkpoint, for some reason, almost every page has MAN Steyr AG, but this is already true the day before yesterday, isn't it?

                Don't bring it yourself if you don't know. Rod in the troops and with Chinese bridges, and with German boxes, and with Chinese electrics. So between the Christmas trees, not later than a couple of months ago we had a UAZ -3909 (former 452-Loaf), they drove it from the capital, normally everything was natively stuck according to the defense order - a Korean box and a razdatka, Boshevskaya electronics. The generator was developed in Russia, but for some reason, I don’t remember how the phrase sounds beautiful word for word, according to the standards and requirements of the Russian GOST, it was made in the Czech Republic. By the way, if something, the Czech Republic seems to be on the list of enemies of Russia. By the way, a radio station based on KamAZ came down there and a Daimler engine and a box with bridges from MAN. So, according to the defense order, scrap metal with 740 engines does not always go, normal things also fall over. About St. Petersburg shock absorbers that are produced in China, or universal joints from Ulyanovsk, which are also produced in China, I probably mentioned in vain? Moreover, the most interesting thing according to the defense order, these same Chinese shock absorbers, boxes, etc., are many times more expensive than you can buy in the most "not expensive" city in Russia - Komsomolsk-on-Amur. Yes, if there are even fuses, and then there are Chinese ones, and, accordingly, they are in spare parts. What kind of Russian electronics - if "Russian" processors are made abroad, by the way, there was absolutely no way at VO (if memory serves) there was a devastating article about the fact that these "bad people" are not very high-quality Elbrus we supply. And over the past couple of decades, I haven’t seen any Russian microcircuits and printed circuit boards ... No, of course KamAZ-4310, it’s a diesel engine for him, electronics are so pampering, by the way, yes, really, our Russian batteries ...

        It doesn't suck for them. Unlike patriotic lope, everything is simpler there. The whole world knows that Russia is carrying out total digitalization. Public services, passports, medicine, everything works on the American program. Gazprom, Vodokanal, Energosbyt, Transport networks, everything is transferred to their software. Everything goes online. At one point, all this can be done simply with iron. Including these sites will cease to speak out patriotically, because no one will come to read them))) There is no need for Kamaz here. A different approach is needed here. there is no software of its own - but it is long overdue as needed hi At the touch of a button, we will be thrown back 50 years into the Soviet past.

          Don't write about something you don't know a damn thing about, and you've never even tried to figure it out. Internal operations with VISA and MasterCard cards were transferred to the National Payment Card System. That is, with the introduction of sanctions, these cards can be used within the country. The same is true when disabling SWIFT, there is SPFS for payments within the state. And you must understand that such shutdowns will occur after the start of the war, no less.

            Yes, what does internal systems have to do with it in terms of SWIFT or SPFP .... we are talking about software. Everything that works on their (American) software will be just rubbish. And it doesn't matter what payment system you are in.
            As for the war ... this is the economic war that has been waged with Russia for a long time, I think they will spit, but I will express my thought as I think:
            You can go back in history and remember the World Congress of Jews ... (long before the Holocaust) - "Judea declares war on Germany. Jews from all countries, unite to boycott German goods and mass demonstrations!!" — Headlines in the Daily Express, March 24, 1933. .... Then All Jews were called upon to declare an economic boycott of all goods from Germany ... Actually, what did this lead to (Hitler hated them to foam at the mouth) ... Germany concentrated on survival ..... Who is now calling for an economic blockade Russia - well, if you look closely, then the followers of the same clowns.
            Russia cannot pretend for a long time that there is no war. The war is on, this is already confirmed by calls to punish the President of Russia and blah blah blah according to their (foreign) texts ....
            Another thing is how we prepare for it. Just shouting patriotic chants from the couch is the lot of those who work out their salaries. Well, or down-and-out boobies, who in general, except for zigging, don’t know how to do anything.
            For me, it’s time to start with the fact that it’s high time to abolish the moratorium on the death penalty for traitors to the Motherland, saboteurs, embezzlers, foreign agents, and other saboteurs acting to the detriment of the interests of the state

            And if you pay attention to modern feature films and serials in terms of where the action takes place, it will be clear that everything is in Moscow. And everything is either about cops or about some kind of businessmen and their mistresses, who only do what they do, that they weave intrigues cooler than in the "Game of Thrones" or conclude some kind of contracts and fight for money. It seems that Moscow only lives by this. And taking into account the fact that 80% of all these actions in films take place in Moscow, one gets the impression that there is no life outside the Moscow Ring Road.

      I agree with you.

      There is a switch from propaganda "Russia wants to attack Ukraine" without answering the question why?
      As if considering it obvious, to discuss the question in detail of this attack "are there enough trucks?"
      Well, yes, we figured out the first question ....

      But I don’t understand why?
      And the problem is not only with trucks, but in general with everything from money, food, materials, medicines, etc., etc.

      If, hypothetically, Russia attacked Ukraine, then what to do with 30 million prisoners.

      Prisoners, they can do nothing, but it is imperative to provide food, housing with light, heating and the Internet, medical care, the possibility of obtaining an education and other blackjack with ....

          The red lines are not about the "existence" of Ukraine.
          And about the deployment of the strike potential and infrastructure of NATO or the countries included in the bloc.

          What exactly the answer will be, too, has never been specified.

          For Ukraine, they also drew a red line
          Rejection of the Minsk agreements == loss of guarantees for territorial integrity.

          Those. not the loss of territorial integrity, but only guarantees.
          I think what this means, the most likely option, if 404 declares that it will not comply or not fully comply with the Minsk agreements or unfreeze hostilities with an offensive attempt, then recognition of the LDNR will follow and perhaps something else ...

          And regarding the deployment of aircraft, say Britain in Ukraine, then in response it is possible to place Iskanders or something hypersonic. Living force will be under possible attack. If they place missiles, air defense, aviation, they can get hit for destruction.

          Capturing Ukraine is the last option, too bad in many respects - victims, losses, restoration costs, maintenance.

          If Ukraine integrates on its own initiative, say, into the CU, then the problem of the transitional stage is their problem.
          Some skakuas may want and demand unemployment benefits like in Germany)
          If there was a capture of Ukraine 404, then these demands would be put forward to the "occupier", and so they can demand from Zelensky, Poroshenko and all those who promised them such a standard of living.

        Russia's attack on Ukraine is now the sweet dream of the Americans.
        Firstly, it gets rid of unnecessary and already boring balance.
        Secondly, frightened Europe, smearing tears and snot, completely rushes into the arms of the United States "do what you want with us, only protect it from the Russians."
        Thirdly, the States have the opportunity to officially declare us an aggressor to the whole world.
        Fourthly, we get a very unfavorable territory with a very deplorable infrastructure that will have to be restored, millions of the population that need to be fed and a lot of "banderlogs" who are rabid against Russia from propaganda, who will really harm and who will need to be calculated and eliminated.
        In short, there are a lot of hemorrhoids, but what will we get in return?

Even secret business goes with Russia. In agriculture, too, as far as I know, people work as before. In general, there are people like us.

And they will not leave the points of deployment in the event of a conflict. But they opened their eyes when in 90 they saw that both armies had 100% technical combat readiness.

In general, how wonderful it would be to see terrorist attacks in Britain, explosions in their Tube (subway), panic in the streets, pogroms, burning of cars, looters, and against this background their autonomy began to declare independence, then London would try to send in troops to preserve the integrity of the country , and there are separatists, Molotov cocktails and suddenly with AK-74, AK-12, RPG, etc. And our Russia Today, which is just screaming at the top of its lungs about peaceful protesters and about the barbaric murders of children throughout the country. and that bullshit in the USA, Texas, Mexicans, Colombians.... oh beauty..... then I probably would have felt that at least some part of justice had triumphed.

    We are talking about the lack of proper road infrastructure, mechanisms and experience. When remembering the logistics teams and their 400 trucks, and our Ministry of Defense has made large purchases in recent years, they talk about the poor condition of the equipment, that is, the readiness ratio, as well as problems associated with attracting private contractors like Oboronservis, etc. The local author believes that the model of such a “private-public partnership” when supplying 50 or more battalion-tactical groups with 1200 tanks and the possible or required speed of their advance will be ineffective. That is, in his opinion, BTG will stall due to problems in logistics. The idea is not developed further, but it is already clear that if battalion tactical groups begin to mark time due to problems with logistics, this will create favorable conditions for the Armed Forces of Ukraine, with all that follows from this.

    “Let's create an equal threat” for the West, and this is exactly what it needs from us. For this, they withdrew from the treaties, in order to invite us (if not on a mutual basis of conspiracy of world militarists) to a new level of equal threats, drawing us into a devastating arms race, like the USSR, which we will lose economically. At the same time, the main “trick” of their negotiation show is to divert attention from conceptual thinking and push the old concept of frontal oncoming poison into our subconscious. hit. Whereas another concept of a lightning-fast “dagger” strike to the brain is possible and an equal build-up of “muscles” is not necessary.

    The Forbes analysis is completely wrong. While the process of reducing the combat fleets Russia inherited from the Soviet Union is coming to an end, the process of reducing its auxiliary fleets is less advanced. Between the auxiliaries, the process of reducing the land-based auxiliary fleet may be the most advanced, and part of the surplus related to the most veteran models that will not continue in the Russian Armed Forces may also be at the end, but this is only part of the surplus. The other part of the surplus is related to projects that will continue in the Russian Armed Forces.
