Why did Putin launch his tanks in wave assaults instead of one big overwhelming push?

Weren't there some larger pushes during the initial days? I recall seeing a few videos of tank columns being ambushed or coming under artillery fire.
Guess they didn't really work out because the monke thought it'd be smart to attack during the mud season, so in many places they were stuck to driving down the roads in columns and were easily shelled and/or ambushed.
Even the roads were so shit in places that their logistics couldn't keep up.

Because amassing tanks is impossible pretty much after the immediate start of the war. In the time it takes for you to amass forces, they'll have gotten droned or blasted by artillery before they can even begin the operation.

Couple that with the fact that fresh stock has dried up and now you have to wait on new refurbs or the very rare new production and Russia's only able to send tanks in a trickle instead of a huge push.

I dont know but seeing the vids of tanks getting blown to bits make me fucking nervous as if my country ever goes to war, i'm stuck in one greasy leo 2. I dont wanna die... but I cant find a job...

>dont wanna die
Fall down a ramp of stairs and blame someone of pushing you.
Doubt putin has the chance to even go against the poles now, so idk

Because the last time they tried that it ended with a 40km traffic jam.

>>63956079
isn't inside a tank still a statistically very safe place to be?

>>63956094
Its like a dying animal and there are condors flying over it except the condors explode.

they can't coordinate something like that
they have no money to actually train

>>63956094
the only safety benefit of a russian tank is nearly assured instant and therefore painless departure

I was gonna make an insightful post with pictures and examples addressing exactly what you're asking, but you made a shitty frog thread so I'm not going to meaningfully engage

Why do you guys hate frog posters.
Im not even spamming, being a zigger or retard.
Just frogposting.

>>63956309
The good book told me frogs are unclean.

>>63956309
nta but i simply respect anime more than frogs.

>Why do you guys hate frog posters.
frogposting/comfyposting is just 4chan's version of le heckin doggo. it's the digital equivalent of sucking your thumb. frogposters love to have their feefees gently affirmed: you're comfy, you're based, you're heckin' valid. it doesn't help that frogposters always ask incredibly retarded questions and are always clearly new.

tl;dr you're being gatekept because you're a juvenile retard

Don't you remember the kilometers long traffic jams in the first weeks of the war? That was the big city ncerted push to the capital, and they ran out of gas.

Now with hindsight they could maybe plan it a little better, but if they started preparing for it the satellites would pick it up, the roads would be mined and the javelin/drone teams would be ready beforehand.

>>63956502
I always wondered how does satellite intelligence work do you just snap some pictures of bases and if you many moving you sound the alarm?
Or does it take large images(country spanning, maybe city spanning) and have AI analises them

>>63955690 (OP)
Because belive it or not dumb frog poster from xitter, when you send them in waves instead of a big push they survive more. For starters, it helps spread them out.

>>63956483
Damn that’s crazy

>>63956651
Except concentration of mass is what wins battles.

>>63955690 (OP)
One big overwhelming push requires a big prior buildup close to enemy lines.
A big prior buildup close to enemy lines attracts the attention of enemy surveillance.
Once the enemy knows where your stuff is, all sort of fun things can happen to it.

Basically this.

>>63955690 (OP)
due to how many drones there are and the fact neither side has the ability to control air space, its impossible for either of them to amass a large enough force for a huge break through without getting instantly spotted and fucked, in other words the bite size assult forces you see getting fucked are essentially the only way Russia can cope with this reality even if its increadibly retarded

>>63955690 (OP)
Because if you did that you'd get a huge traffic jam, I'm pretty sure they tried
