re: #450 Targetpractice

Military arms, if not training, would certainly gum up the works. I can’t imagine Putin could really argue that foreign interference is wrong at this point. And if he sees it as reason to expand the war, then he will certainly give NATO reason to take action.

Indeed. Stinger missiles can play hell with ground-support helos, as the Russians learned at great cost. As can anti-tank weapons, grenades, and if that’s combined with some good military training, the Russian Army could find themselves facing Afghanistan II.
