Do you think the Iraqi air force is on the same level as the russian air force? Or Iraqi sam production and stockpiles are anywhere near Russian production and stockpiles?
I'm not moving the goalposts, I stand by my original statement, ukraine is short on man power and you need men to win a drawn out war of attrition.
You still haven't addressed how China was able to push America out of north Korea even though America had the definitive production and technological advantage. They even had unquestioned aerial dominance for a while.
Aerial dominance is great in quick offensive operations, but once a line is entrenched and established it becomes more dangerous and costly to try and fly over that line, that's why, again, the war has become one of artillery.
