There’s an important distinction to make; Following WWII with the advent of nuclear weapons, NATO had a series of debates spanning decades, that has resulted in its modern warfare doctrine. NATO’s troops (and the troops they trained) are really only scouts, their main goal in combat is to mark the positions of enemies so tanks, helicopters, jets, etc. can do the real attacking.
Since Russia has dominated Ukraine’s skies, NATO’s trained troops are missing a massive element of what they’re intended for, so they’re practically useless.
