Der ukrainische Verteidigungsminister Fedorow: Das Militär räumt den russischen Massenverlusten durch KIA und Drohnen Vorrang ein. Der ehemalige IT-Unternehmensentwickler und jetzt jüngste Verteidigungsminister Europas möchte, dass seine Truppen jeden Monat für 50.000 im Kampf gefallene russische Soldaten schießen.

I mean, wasn’t Ukraine already trying to inflict maximum casualties every day. How does coming up with an arbitrary number with lots of zeroes exactly help.
When something becomes a metric it becomes useless. For example, this can cause commanders to trade territory for enemy casualties (which could very well be a smart decision if reserves are being saved for counterattacks). Also, this says nothing about casualty ratio, which is arguably more important.
The IT management experience is shining through. Reminds of some of my previous IT managers.
That being said, any initiatives to inflict Russian casualties with minimal Ukrainian casualties are of course welcome. I’m sure Ukrainian ingenuity will come up with some new tactics this year. I just hope that Ukrainian economy and support from allies can scale up any such innovations.
This guy has the answers 🙏🇺🇦👍
Targeting Russian hardware and installations will hurt them far more than focusing on KIA numbers. Russia historically doesn’t give a shit about taking casualties, they’re used to meat grinder assaults.
Targeting Russian oil fields and their energy sector has been far more effective. I hope Ukraine doesn’t divert resources from those strikes to maximize the number of kills on the battlefield.
Happy hunting!!!!
This is not the right goal. It just earns political brownie points.
Now that’s a KPI I can get behind.
A very good target since it’s so easy to achieve, you just report 50,001 Russian soldiers killed in combat every month and you’re done. Not like anyone can confirm or deny it. Wish it would’ve been just as easy on my job lol.
I’m having a hard time understanding the pushback in these comments. The idea is to kill more troops than Russia can realistically train/recruit/deploy every month.
If you knock out more than they can send, eventually Russia will have less soldiers in country than Ukraine does, and Ukraine can make a land push.
If they knock out most of the Russians in Ukraine and Russia doesn’t stop, they can start targeting troops in Russia next, and really tighten the screw on Russia.
