  1. When you mentioned that they were "filling their tanks with cardboard", that was too general, and I think you confused Johnny. What Ryan was referring to was the ERA blocks (Explosive Reactive Armour). The ERA blocks I saw blown apart here had black stuff in them that looked like rubber, but maybe if they didn't have rubber they used cardboard, instead of explosives, to defeat an armour piercing charge by exploding outwards, this protecting the steel hull of the tank underneath. Anyway, whether it was rubber or cardboard or both, Russian corruption was so bad it ruined Putin's modernisation. Everyone was stealing money, like their Czar.

  2. Yea, it's like letting the Fox into the Hen house, they'll wreck it from within. NATO exists because of Russian EXPANSION. The USSR and Russia were never serious about joining NATO, but only to wreck it from within. Johhny and Pyotor being naive. Russia committing genocide in Chechniya, flattening Grozny twice in two wars.
