While it has begun slowly to adapt, Ukraine’s military is still deeply rooted in Soviet-era offensive tactics and culture, centralizing decision-making at the top while penalizing subordinate soldiers who dare to deviate from the plan.

"Ukraine's losing cuz communism!"

That's the eastern Europe for you. In postsocialist countries, even after over 30 years of the destruction of socialism, literally every failure gets blamed on socialism.

I'm not really knowledgeable about this at all, but I could've sworn I've heard that inflexibility in plans and overpenalization of subordinates for not following exact orders is a huge flaw in the US military. So they will literally project anything and everything lol
