Yep the Russian performance, and plan was really farcical, they envisioned 1-2 weeks war with minimal casualties and a rapid collapse of the Ukrainian gov. what Putin got instead was a war still going on for more than 1 year, the Russians losing 50 percent of their intiial territorial conquests and the worst casualties since WW2, worst losses than all the wars the USSR and Russia was involved in combined after WW2 and that is just one year. with the Russians losing 200K to 250K casualties so far. and several thousands of vehicles. and its not only a stupidly optimistic plan and poor execution , its a whole host of problems like corruption, outdated inflexible Soviet era combat doctrine, poor command and control, poor training, morale. poor leadership. poor logistics, poor coordination, a whole host of problems top to bottom which the Russians as of this writing has not really improved on or at least changed for the better. These days you have a Russian army trying to batter the Ukrainian army with numbers fighting like it was either World war 1 or 2.
