If Russia throws badly trained, led, equipped and supplied troops into battle, their losses are likely to be horrendous and their morale rock bottom. They would be far better served by a smaller number of well trained troops; but that would take too much time.

Russia's strategy seems taken straight out of Zapp Brannigan's Art of War, where they are banking on Ukraine's arms supplies to eventually run out after spending them all wiping out wave after wave of Russia's "badly trained, led, equipped and supplied troops" until there's no resistance left.
Starting from day 1, Russia has been sending unwitting and unequiped conscripts through the Ukraine frontlines until they draw contact.
