And then the monthly estimates are somewhere in the ballpark of.
There's well over 30,000 killed, demoted, irreparable Russian losses every month.
The correct Ukrainian target is 50,000 per month, and they've been close to 40 recently.
So I think that's sort of ballpark where we're at.
it's partially also a function of how hard the Russians are pushing.
So the Russian operational tempo, basically how, how hard are they going to push their people into the Ukrainian meat grinder, uh, is a big function of that, but that's basically what the casualty rates are.
Um,
What's notable, I think, is really not the numbers.
It's the lack of commensurate gains.
Because if you basically had an effective operational template, you would expect to see a rate of return where more resources going in equal more results on the ground.
And it's not just diminishing returns.
It is they're putting in more resources than they were this time a year ago to get lesser returns.
And so it's for those reasons that we're arguing we're in a new phase.
Well, that and specifically incidents in the spring where we're looking at the combat footage and we were seeing Ukrainian infantry fighting vehicles and tanks operating on the front lines and not just on the front lines, but in tactical positions that used to be 15, 20 kilometers behind the Russian assessed line, which was pretty incredible.
Exactly.
You're exactly right, Mike.
So when we saw these Ukrainian vehicles being employed in ways that were categorically impossible a month or 12 months ago,
That sort of triggered a cascading line of inquiry.
Like, why is this happening?
Where are the Russian drones?
