Russia is a huge country, with 146 million people. Russia does have nukes, and does have a modern millitary with industrialized production outpacing NATO. Again, a war with NATO would be long and bloody, but likely would result in Russia winning or both sides losing. War with Russia should be the last thing anyone wants.

Israel couldn't even beat Iran, and Israel has all of the fanciest tools NATO has. A war with Russia would be long, bloody, and benefit nobody.

”Modern military” is a stretch. They have handfuls of wunderwaffen but the bulk of their equipment is relatively ancient.

There’s a reason we don’t see their latest and greatest tanks and planes, because they don’t have any. The vast majority of tanks in Ukraine are older than the internet 😝

Both sides have sizable soviet stockpiles, but both Russia and NATO have been supplying modern arms and equipment.

So where are the T-14 Armatas and Su-57s then?

Hint, they have about a dozen Armata TOTAL as well as the Su-57

Compare that to the 1200+ F-22 already delivered as well as the F-35
