Russia has more weapons but they also wasted much more weapons than Ukraine.
CV,
So, do they have more or not? With the exception of the Iranian drones, unlike Ukraine, there's little evidence of them going cap in hand to other countries begging for more weapons like Zelensky and Gen. Zaluzhny have been doing. And, in spite of western propaganda telling us that the Russians are running out of weapons and ammo, evidence on the ground proves otherwise.
Ukraine has more manpower and benefits from the support of the locals.
You're out of date. They
had (note tense) more manpower at the start of the war. Since then, they've conscripted everyone of fighting age (including boys as young as 14, allegedly) and now need NATO soldiers to shore up the numbers. Why? Because they've lost waaaaaay more men than they're admitting to. Whereas, Russia has any amount of men they can draft in on top of the 300,000 recently mobilised reservists. Any imbalance there may have been has long since been ironed out and now favours the Russians over the Ukrainians.
Ukranian soldiers are getting better with time, more experience, better training and better weapons.
Many of the experienced and well trained Ukrainian soldiers have been killed. Self evidently, new conscripts brought in to replace them have zero experience. Out of necessity, their training is condensed to a few short months at best - so in no way is it better than the Russians. The experienced professional soldiers that remain are being taken away from the front line to receive training on all the kit that they're having to get shipped in which, unlike the Russian made kit they trained on - is largely alien to them. The Russians don't have any of these problems.
Russia is still using Stalin's mantra, quantity over quality.
At least you accept that the Russians have quantity. You'll need to provide some evidence regarding your quality claim - as there's none that I can see.
The problem is that 21st century people is not the same than WW2, they are not so available to become cannon fodder.
And yet, this is precisely what's happenning on the Ukrainian side - for reasons that have been explained before. Zelensky isn't able to execute the best military strategy because he's forced to do what Biden and the west demand. To perpetuate the fraud the west needs to see results. Therefore, Zelensky has no choice but to feed Ukrainian conscripts into the Russian meat grinder and then hide the extent of the losses in order to get more weapons from the west. No need to believe me, CV - but do please tell me why you don't believe the likes of Oleksei Reznikov, Ukraine's defence minister? Perhaps you missed this from a few days ago . . .
They need one million soldiers to regain momentum and I dont' think they will find them.
As mentioned already, the 300k reservists are being mobilised right now. The Russian policy is to only commit the number of troops needed to get the job done. That doesn't mean they haven't got more - many more - in the event that NATO forces join the conflict. They can conscript any number they need.
Lastly, did you read that article I linked to?
You say you're a scientist and yet you appear to actively ignore anything that doesn't support the narrative you want to believe. Prove me wrong on this and at least read that article!
