    Sadly, the Soviets (and their technology) are long gone.

    I beg to differ - Soviet technology is still here. Ukraine has
    destroyed 3336 tanks so far, most of those from the soviet era.

    The still use Soviet Soyuz boosters.

    One might note that Putin desires the return of the Sovyetky Soyuz.

    Don't forget the 14,000 soviet nuclear weapons.  Thousands of the
    battlefield nuclear weapons are being distributed to the Russian troops
    right now.  The Ukranian advance is 300 miles inside Russia and they are
    not going to burn Moscow this time.

    That would be 2/3 of the distance from Moscow to Kyiv.

    The incursion is a few tens of kilometers.

    I suspect he confused the occupied area (approx 400 square miles)
    with linear distance.
