      Great news for Russia!
      – not enough time time to develop severe PTSD
      – no need no carry useless stuff like medical equipment
      – less need for troop rotations,
      – sensible way to get rid of undesirables

      Sending your sons out to die in half an hour all for the vanity of a few old men who can’t admit they lost.

      How long do Ukrainian troops survive on average?

      I hope we get to the point, where the survival of russian troops becomes basically irrelevant as they don’t even reach the battlefield anymore.

    4. Russian stupidity is insane. They would rather face a 30 minute life span to murder innocent Ukrainians instead of toppling their own dictatorship.

      At what point do Russia mothers say enough is enough?

      I can’t imagine any civilised country accepting what Putin is forcing on them. It’s like the whole nation is utterly brainwashed.

    6. And Putin’s solution is to flood the battlefield with as many unfit soldiers as possible in order to exhaust the Ukrainian defences. Russian lives mean nothing to the regime that pretends to be concerned with Russian people living in Ukraine.

    7. It’s crazy because if you’re sending out meaning you’re dead. Scary as hell

    8. What makes me sad is that when leaders are losing they tell all their remaining soldiers to keep fighting while they go and hide in some cave. Hitler. Saddam. Osama. Etcetera.

      Christ, it’s probably even more bleak than it sounds. You know how with average wealth the mean is always skewed by a few ultra rich dudes and median wealth is a much better number… Probably same thing here. Might have a few guys surviving a few months massively bumping up the average. Median time might be scary low.

      Their wives/girlfriends’ future boyfriends will thank them for their sacrifice, if the payout does go through and they are not reported missing.

      An **average** of 30 minutes mean, some live longer and some shorter, which is crazy.

    12. There’s going to be a hell of a lot of Russian singles flooding our inboxes soon

      Don’t forget the brain drain. All the smart Russian fighting age men fled years ago.

      I’m glad this information is coming from an objective source: the director of the CIA

    15. TwoColdBeers on

      The CIA is a credible source that only pushes information that it knows to be factual

    16. They can offer $100k contracts for the cannon fodder and family gets a bag of onions and glory

      Article’s own title contradicts the text. The stat is only applicable to fresh recruits, not the average soldier. Still very bleak.

      Supposedly in 1943 most T34s never needed to be refueled before they were knocked out, hosed out and repaired for a new crew.

    19. Isn’t this comparable to statistics from WWI?

      I recall that newly deployed troops without combat experience had very low survival rates.

      On another note: I distinctly remember that the average lifespan for a German artillery spotter in a cold war scenario was 2.5 minutes after the first radio message.
