Much simple answer is that Russia doesn't have a viable air force. Air force and the navy, not tanks, lets military get things done - land troops are just to seal the results of the already won battle.
Having a viable air force requires a viable electronics industry which Russia completely lacks, and metal processing achieving much better tolerances than they shown to be capable of doing - which defines both stealth and engine performance. Sorry but there is no way to "hack" this: having a viable air force requires an advanced economy and science which only a rich country may have.

- darthrupert 4y agoI think they're just behaving far more emotionally and less logically than what you night expect. They think Ukraine and Russia has a shared destiny or some other completely unfounded bullshit like that. Even if they did, so what. If history defined the present, England might be thinking about India, parts of China with a greedy eye.
