Who is this Roy/Alexei Chadayev?

Russia does NOT do infantry assaults, and their rate of advance across the whole 800 mile front has been accelerating for the last year. (The Ukrainian front is twice as long as the WW I front, with one tenth the troops.)

The Ukrainians hunker down in fortresses, and the Russians hammer them with artillery, bombs, and missiles until the Ukrainians are beaten. Then the Russians send out small infantry probes to locate the survivors, and clean them up. The result is a ten-to-one advantage for the Russians in casualties. The Ukrainian war is a kind of updated version of WW I trench warfare. The US and NATO still don’t get it.
