While permanently bursting the invincibility myth about Russia's limitless reserves of Soviet-era armor and artillery.

Great success!

If the main NATO member can dump a greater budget than Russia's entire military on a domestic gestapo overnight, then of course NATO has the greater capacity to divert resources towards war. I am not sure that was ever in question.
