Russian Losses Just The Start
Russia is devastating Ukraine but without any glory or professionalism. One person on CNN said the Russian forces are more a bunch of rapists than soldiers.
So far reported Russian losses in what started as a one-sided war is pretty impressive if you are one of those who support Ukraine as very much the victim and Russia as the aggressor without emphathy.
NZ & Australia supports Ukraine and have sent money, equipment, specialist personnel, and troops (stationed in the border country of Poland). It could be that our soldiers came via Trentham and part of their training was in the Trentham Racecourse and Grant's Bush Reserve (nah, the latter - just joking).
Here is a list of Russian losses to date. The main conjecture is attack force numbers killed.
Personnel: 22,400
Transport and supply vehicles 1666
Armoured personnel carriers 2342
Tanks 939
Artillery 421
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles 207
Planes 185
Helicopters 155
Multiple launch rocket systems 149
Fuel tankers 76
Anti aircraft systems 71
Ships 8
