Major-General Chip Chapman, former Senior British Military Advisor to US Central Command, breaks down why Russia's military has reached its operational limits, why mass mobilisation will fail to turn the tide, and why the tempo of this war will not slow down through 2026. In this interview: • Putin's legacy trap: why an imperial mindset and fear of personal failure prevent Putin from accepting a winter energy ceasefire or negotiated peace. • The limits of mass mobilisation: why adding numbers alone cannot fix Russia's severe logistical, training, and equipment bottlenecks. • The evolution of counter-innovation: how Ukraine is using AI, supercomputing, and rapid drone tech to counter Russia's jet-powered Shahed drones and glide bombs. • Frontline tactics & Ukrainian generalship: why superior Ukrainian leadership and decentralised command continue to outmanoeuvre Russia's top-down command structure.
