NATO would 'wipe out Russia's army in a matter of months'

Ed Arnold, a senior research fellow at the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI), told the Kyiv Independent: "There is still an overwhelming ability by NATO for death and destruction... particularly in terms of long-range fire, anything launched from the fleet of F-35 (advanced jet fighters), for example... if they (Russia) fought how they fight now, in Ukraine, against a NATO force, they would be destroyed pretty quickly."
