Paywall.

"It's lethal!"

"Does it target accurately?"

Mr. Ratcliffe gave a speech in the Pennsylvania Defense and Innovation Summit. In summary: "The average life expectancy of a Russian recruit right now arriving on the battlefield in Ukraine is estimated to be between 20 and 30 minutes".

There was a documentary where a Ukrainian said the life expectancy of their own recruits was 4 hours on the front lines.

Sounds like ratcliffe was inspired by that comment and is now exaggerating.
