Been going for awhile, its estimated 50,000 are MIA for desertion....think about that, the entire CAF just getting up and leaving and you can still fight

They have nothing to fear as long as there's a steady supply of "peasants" outside of the big cities to feed to Ukrainian fields.

That's what the Czar thought as well. Then things begin to unravel. The Russian revolution was kicked started by snow blocking the streets of St Petersburg, preventing flour to get to the bakeries, triggering riots. The Arab spring was triggered by a young Tunisian vendor, who had lost all hope. A small incident can spark a conflagration that was totally unexpected.
Nope, during of three century of existence of russia as a state every rebellion, putsch and revolution have culminated by rise of new psycho tyrant, dictator, mass murder and terror.
Only solution lays in splitting that mass land into smaller historical states under supervision by West for at least 10~15 years with following establishing of independent authorities. Sort of like that was done after WW2 in Europe and in Fareast.

General Ben Hodges - This Is the Turning Point of the War
The world is watching in silence as Ukraine bleeds. Missiles rain down. Civilians die. And the man once promising strength now hides behind hesitation. What General Ben Hodges just laid out is a roadmap for victory — but only if the West wakes up. And now, Europe is finally cracking the illusion of diplomacy with Putin. No more red lines. No more fear. From drone strikes deep inside Russia to NATO-supplied weapons finally used without restriction, this is a battlefield shift that could reshape the entire war. Germany, Romania, Sweden, and the Netherlands are no longer talking — they’re acting. Ammunition depots are being hit. Drone factories are burning. And small nations are making big decisions. The time for symbolic gestures is over. The time for power, clarity, and consequences has arrived.

WOW amazing that was caught on video too. Doesn't look like the pilot had time to eject either, that right (?) wing came right off still firing rockets.
EDIT: Correction, chute spotted @ 0:26.

It has also been announced that the Sapsan aka Hrim-2 has entered serial production. Comparable to the ATACMS in range (280km), it however can carry a much bigger payload of 480kg.

Russia source, but fairly reliable Fighterbomber confirmed pilot was recovered and is in hospital with a busted wing of their own, to match of course.
