The amount of small arms ammo that the Ukrainians are using defies common sense...

One night of the Ukrainian machine-gun point. Two broken MG 42/59s and at the edge of the forest there are many dead Russians. It is not clear in white cases spare barrels for MG or powder charges for OG-7V. pic.twitter.com/aLJOcYovb7

The terrain, modern detection devices and the good ole mark 1 eyeball should make the idea of a machinegun position (with the gunners just hanging over the lip of a trench firing) batshit crazy.

Deep Jungle?  I get that.  But on the plains of Ukraine with forested positions?

That just don't make sense.

Yet here we see it.  I don't get it.  Something is off.  If its real then Russian basic infantry tactics are jacked up.  Considering the terrain and the ammo expended these gunners should have been easily spotted and eliminated.
