If by "milking" you mean "releasing major content additions semi regularly", then yes.

Maybe don't mindlessly rattle off the same Whataboutism every time the current Russian war against Ukraine is being discussed.

There has never been a shortage of quality equipment for elite units but in the early stages of the conscription people where issued everything stored in bunkers and depots at hand including personal weapons from late WWII/early Cold War.

And if you look at confirmed vehicle losses there is a clear trend towards older and older albeit to various degrees modernized platforms. So yeah, Russia IS running out of modern weapons for the average unit in the field.

The issue at hand though is the longer the conflict draggs on the more Russia is able to adapt. Evading sanctions by laundering oil in India. Importing vital electronic components through China. And now securing more ammo in North Korea. Which btw the west is doing in South Korea and other places around the world as well.

The amount of artillery shells being used is astronomical. Paired with a low production capacity in the west as a baseline, it is not unimaginable that the ongoing demand outweighs production.

Could as well be Orban trying to look cool to younger folks.

Who was the US Republican die-hard neo-lib Senator again, who claimed to love Rage Against The Machine?

Isn't it a long-standing theory that at some point the whole magnetic field of earth might flip polarity, just like the sun's does?
