not much to imagine they'd get ran through. they haven't trained for shyt in ages, the terrain will be entirely foreign, they're going from counter insurgency to conventional warfare, they never dealt with an information disadvantage like what they'd be walking into here, no clue how to handle drones, language barriers, etcTrying to imagine how well Afghan troops would integrate into the Russian army. They would have to be completely separate units otherwise they would get robbed for their gear, have their faith mocked, etc.. Who could've guessed that the lead up to world war would be such a clown show?
And as usual, Canada is suspiciously quiet.
