How much land on average have the Russians gained over the last 12 months? What is the projection of time until they take all of it? I recall the calculation bring 20+ years.

The Russian war machine cannot replace its losses, thus they rely on NK men and equipment, amazing job by the Ukrainians and the West destroying the Russian army twice and depleting all the old Soviet stock.

I think it might be even more than 20, it is slow but they are gaining. I don't think their objective is to get whole of Ukraine but the eastern oblasts (which they do have most of already) and maybe a buffer zone. But that's my speculation.

NK men are only in Kursk / Russian region. I don't think there's any confirmed NK men fighting in Ukraine.

According to iiss [1], Russia does not have man power issues, unlike Ukraine.

I only wish it wasn't at the cost of hundreds of thousand of Ukrainian men.
