> like the Russia/Ukraine war where both sides are losing hundreds of people every week.

Every week? If we just look at the Russian casualties numbers, its around 1000+ casualties PER DAY.

There was a recent leak of the death toll and the most active area's had a 2/5 dead rate, 1/3 "missing" rate, and the rest was wounded.

If we only count the death + "missing" over the entire front for Russia, its 500+ PER DAY.

Ironically, the Russian->Afghanistan invasion was WAY less deadly then what we see today in Ukraine.

Your point still stands about the US evolvement in Iran/Afghanistan, but darn your numbers really way below the actual body count in the Russian "3-day limited special military operation". Those are numbers from the first year, not the daily of the third year.

You are likely correct. I have heard of the high casualty estimates, but wanted to keep it conservative to not have someone complain about the estimate being too high.
