It's what their units are actually designed for. A western style (read :us) assault was never a credible option for their structure. The operational difference of us and russian units can be read plainly in the numerical disparity. An american unit is comprised in such a way as it can attack, fail..reatreat, and defend, without being "destroyed". Russian units are just big enough to attack and succeed.....or... to offer stiff defense - but there is no margin for failure in either task before destruction. When units organized that way were ordered to attack, and then failed, it compromised their primary ability to defend as well.
Still, it's a vanity project for a dictator who's already reached his "my people don't deserve me" moment...so, there's no amount of reconstituting forces that would be too much for Uncle Vlad.
