It looks like the "superior NATO way" only worked so far against technologically backward adversaries and start to fail when the enemy has enough battlefield awareness to thwart all attempts of surprise attack. At least that's what Ukraine's current fall back to positional warfare seems to indicate.
Don't have any evidence of Russia's great 'battlefield awareness '(lol), I suppose most Russian there know they are in Ukraine but I am not sure either.
About the 'NATO way', yes it is supposed to destroy backwards enemies such like Russia, using much better trained proffesional troops, superior technology and precision weapons, using missiles launched from subs, ships and aircraft plus total air superiority. If anything Russia has proved in this conflict is it would be the perfect target for the 'NATO way'.
Ukraine has little of that yet. It continues being mostly a backwards army, in transition to become a western army, but still using a 80% of old Soviet equipment. Of course apart of a good bunch of javelins, it has received a tiny part of NATO arsenal, mostly obsolete, a few dozens of tanks, a couple of acceptably advanced AA defense systems, some HIMARS and storm shadow plus some quick basic training and intel, but even that tiny part has shown to be crucial enough, even lacking a proper air force, or a navy...
In fact Ukraine's poor man NATO way, has shown to be vastly superior to the mighty 'Russian way', which consists lying in TV while launching mountains of human meat to the grinder and loads of tank turrets to the sky till the enemy runs out of ammo. In fact with an army many times smaller, Ukraine has stopped the whole Russian army on the place, confronting it in the open, face to face, has massacred its tanks, troops and everything Russia has thrown to them to levels unseen since 1941, to finally make it run and hide in holes like rabbits.
To achieve that Ukraine has needed only a tiny tiny part of NATO budget. Keep in mind USA has expended 66 billions helping Ukraine, which makes about a 4% of USA's yearly military budget. Most European countries, specially the big ones, even less. So stop a moment to think how ridiculous your triumphant rant really sounds at this side and think on what a 100% of the 'NATO way' could do to Russia.
