"Russia's Shift to Infantry-Led Frontal Assaults Amid Equipment Losses"
The Russian army is increasingly relying on infantry-led frontal assaults due to a lack of adequately trained personnel and significant military equipment losses, according to a report by the Institute for the Study of War (ISW). Milbloggers have noted that this reliance on assault tactics is a negative reflection of Russian equipment losses and poor frontline coordination. The Russian General Staff appears to be heavily relying on frontal assaults as the predominant tactic in Ukraine, as part of their solution to the problems of "military parity" in positional warfare.
