As the Battle for Donbas is unfolding, much has been said about the problems Russians might encounter with logistics, equipment deficiencies, lack of motivation and reinforcements, etc.
One aspect I want to emphasize is the challenge to Russian command.

Add to this that many exercises are highly choreographed, as many things in the Russian military.
