Then where's all the money going ? LolInteresting read. I have biases about which country provides better snipers but these shooters are operating under new threats, enemy capabilities, etc.
How Ukraine’s Most Elite Snipers Rewrote the Marksman’s Handbook
Elite Ukrainian army snipers tell Kyiv Post about their war job in an exclusive interview. It’s far better not to be seen and let someone else do the shooting, they said.
Probably in gear like anti thermal materials as noted in the article. Comparing their sniper duties to our snipers is different mission, and for good reasons. For one we're talking about a small country with limited resources and population going against a major power. They can't afford to lose troops like Russia can. So they have to change the job from sniping to forward observers. Our snipers and scouts do the same, but for the Ukraine I think the mission must lean more towards forward observation with no chance of being detected. So the money probably goes more towards optics, coms, thermals, and anti-thermal material.
Yes I did read the article. We been sending trillions. And I would also assume we have been sending some of our best equipment. And since they are not shooting, where are all the primers going ? lol
The snipers aren't shooting much. but the soldier is shooting quite a bit. We've had a primer shortage well before the war.

Am I to believe what the media writes now ? lolSnipers - no collateral damage, like blowing up a school, orphanage, or hospital. Negligible cost compared to drones, missiles & whatever.
Sniping is effective in disrupting Russian rigid chain of command by removing field leadership and material, especially in urban settings having heat confusion.

Ukrainian snipers hunting top enemy commanders are exploiting one of the Russian military's biggest vulnerabilities
Russia's top-down, officer-centric command leaves the army vulnerable to confusion and paralysis if a senior military leader is killed.
"Russia continues to rely heavily on senior officers for both strategic and tactical decisions, rather than entrusting the latter to NCOs or junior enlisted officers."
