![Wallis And Futuna Wallis-And-Futuna](https://militaryimages.net/misc/flags/shiny/32/Wallis-And-Futuna.png)
The problem for russia is that manpower has always been their go-to solution for every problem, both offensive and defensive.
Fuel shortage? -> Human waves
Lack of reconnaissance plaforms? -> Put out human bait
Clear minefields-> Take stick, beat mine
Artillery shortage? -> Human waves
Logistical problems? -> Use more human mules
Tank shortage? -> Human waves
When the cannon fodder runs out there is no option other than to get more, and the African "volunteers" aren't going to offset the losses.
Looks like Russia lost 1M in last couple of years, USA gained a couple of million. UK is slight growth.
Human wave attacks must have been cool in the 40's and 50's, maybe they stopped because we took the quad 50 cal mount away? or did they stop because of the quad 50 mount.....
Also not going to deny, but Western Europe tried the human wave thing, back in 1914.....
