However, netizens, who watched the video, noticed, that Ukraine still has nothing to be proud of in terms of weapons, despite loud statements about the transition to NATO standards and the rejection of “Soviet legacy”.
Here are some of the comments on this video:
Departed from the Soviet, but the old Soviet equipment is operated
Average age of equipment 50 years or more?
Soviet scrap metal showed
These are NATO standards?
As one commenter noted, APU once again removed “showing off”, designed for an inexperienced civilian viewer, signing it all “departure from Soviet standards”. According to him, in the Soviet army, combat capabilities were never evaluated by a drill review. The combat readiness of the units of the Soviet army has always been evaluated in practice, for which the command spared no ammunition, no technology.
