Putin resorting to ‘Soviet era’ weaponry to cope against Ukraine | Maj Gen Chip Chapman

Wow...no ridiculous repeat of half of the interview at the beginning. Much better. 😊

Les pays qui ont acheté des armes aux russes, savent ce qui les attendent en cas de conflit avec un autre pays qui est équipé d'armes occidentales 😉🇨🇵

I wish. but if feels like we heard this now for 1 year+

This isn’t news. They’ve been saying this for at least a year.

Out of stuff? I've been waiting for years now for the Russians to use their first line gear. Hmmm... Maybe they never had any.....

We still trying to prolong this war, what happened to the peace talks??

❤Ukrainian ❤

The BBC in 2022: Russia is out of missiles and tanks. The BBC in 2024: Russia is out of missiles and tanks. And yet...Russia has been advancing since Jan 2023.

poor putin....ukraine keeps getting better, newer, more accurate....more longer range...and more lethal weapons....while russia drags out WW2 tanks, BMPs and artillery now....how embarrassing for pooty! KARMA for picking on a weak neighbour! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I have great respect for major general Chapman. I would like to make an observation in addition to what he made. I would also like to 0:17 give an opinion based on the fact that I'm an American and I participate in politics on the Democratic side here in the USA. Point number one, I believe that when the ukrainians receive enough f-16s they will do something bold. I am reminded of Lieutenant Colonel James Doolittle flying, Mitchell B25 bombers off of a aircraft carrier to strike Tokyo. This was cathartic. Galvanized the resolve of the American people. It meant victory was defined as unconditional surrender. I think the ukrainians will mount a bold and possibly reckless attack against the Russians using those f-16s. I believe they'll give Putin a bloody nose. Hopefully that will hasten his demise from the political scene. My other point is that Putin, in my opinion has a great deal of compromising evidence against Trump. I believe Putin has all the control he would ever need in order to direct Trump and Trump's responses. By every saying definition of the word it is well known it was done on television, Trump is a traitor and the Republicans are a fifth column for Putin. Thank you.

Pootin itself is a monster creature created by the USSR-Frankenstein.

F-16s are Soviet era weapons.

the soviet weapons ,the best the money can buy!period!

chaos with migrants in Britain, and he talks about Russia and Putin))))

It is worth noting that Ukrainian media has made several reports of Ukrainian units doing exactly the same - repurposing Soviet era stock. A recent report showed how old towed artillery pieces (4) had been reconditioned and mounted onto flatbed trucks to make mobile artillery pieces.

I have it on good authority Putin is reverting to medieval sword and shield soldiers. I also hear he is destabilising Britain by getting my neighbours to play loud reggae music late at night.

Граждане британцы. Вы наивны и мало осведомлены о событиях тут. 1. В России очень много военных заводов которые работают в 4 смены и производят боеприпасов достаточного что бы противостоять оружию всего блока нато которое находится на ua. 2. Россия в сосстоянии купить дополнительное оружие у других стран. Не взять в кредит и не клянчить а купить! 3. На UA уже 5 или 6 мобилизаций прошло а в России 1 и та частичная. Все остальные бойцы это те кто пошли служить по контракту в не насильно. 4. При всех негативных факторах в нашей экономике все социальные программы работают, стройки объектов идут. Новые регионы восстанавливаются ( кстати зачем по вашему восстанавливать оккупированные города если Россия такая кровожадная?), промышленность развивается, создаются новые союзы БРИКС и ШОС. 5. Нас исключили из фестивалей и олимпийских игр. Вы сами то видите во что это все превратилось? Евровидение и Олимпийские игры похожи на опен эир для студентов. Где еще вы увидите что бы мужик избивал женщину на ринге В общем наивно опираясь только на западные новости делать выводы о состоянии России. Лучшие займитесь своими делами

How do we know if Putin isn’t just printing money to pay these exorbitant sign up bonuses?

Incredible, the speaker harps on about the difficulties the Russians might be having in recruiting into the army while completely ignoring a far worse situation in Ukraine.

Nice one Chip - this idea that Russia, because of its size, can just go on forever, is simply clearly not true. What happens in the States is not guaranteed - and that goes irrespective of who wins the election so Putain can't rely on that. So while that could also be said of Ukraine, the States is not the only country which Ukraine enjoys support from. In my humble opinion, far from us Brits losing interest, it appears our national wish to see Ukraine win has only increased.... In short, the Russians are on a hiding to nothing. I've been saying this for a minimum of a year now rhat what we are witnessing is the slow, implosion of Russia...
