Defense News, with reference to European and US officials and experts, explained how the Russian army was able to receive a stable replenishment, and the MIC is increasing production volumes. From the above analyst, Defense Express concluded that the West countries were mistaken in the assessment of the enemy's strategic prospects. "The picture looked like (in 2023 - ed. ) That it would take a minimum of a few years to restore its Kremlin's military power, if not all 10.
And it was from this factor of the event that they came out in their military assistance strategies for Ukraine and expenses for the result On the battlefield, "the message reads. Analysts emphasized that in the assessments of the ability of the Russians to wage a full -scale war in Ukraine, the event proceeded not from the real possibilities of Moscow, but from how it would act in a similar situation. During the war, the Russian Federation almost three times increased the defense budget.
Whereas it is unlikely that some Western countries could increase their military costs three times a year, noted in Defense Express. In particular, this has created macroeconomic distortions for the Russian Federation, because military costs make up 10% of Russian GDP, but it gave a resource for a permanent influx of people in the departments of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.
After all, the promised salary of contractors is often five times higher than the average salary in most regions of the Russian Federation. Moreover, the event did not take into account the military-industrial complex in Russia, which is fully subordinated to the country. As a result, it allowed "to put" modernization of old military equipment and the restoration of disconnected combat vehicles.
In addition, it was difficult for Western analysts to predict that Moscow would receive large -scale military assistance from Iran and North Korea. "It turned out to be possible that even 3 million artillery ammunition could be put on the same DPRK, not to mention the" tens "of long -range ballistic missiles," DEFENSE Express analysts added. We will remind, on May 4, the editor -in -chief of Defense Express Oleg Katkov stated that the Russian Federation restained his MP.
