How many days would it take for Russia conquer Finland assuming its realistic ie Russia wont dangerously deplete its borders and Finland might receive some sort of aid.

Like 7 my guy
Launch nuclear Iskanders at Helsinki. The next day the rest of Finland thanks Russia.
try half a day, Finland will capitulate to escape mslims
5-6 days max.
Frankly I don't believe they would. Even if Finland isn't a Nato country they're too valuable as a buffer state to just let them get steamrolled.
I don't think it would be that easy. Finnish terrain is awful. About a month IMO, but it would be very bloody (for both).
not fast enough
Occupying Finland is one thing, conquering and actually controlling it is a totally different matter.
The concept of finnish defence is having a huge reserve force and huge decentralized stockpiles of weapons, ammo and landmines strewn all over the country, so that any extended war would turn into a gigantic partizan war so that even if the succeed in taking out most of the heavy weaponry of the FDF and taking over the large cities they would get bogged trying to go anywhere outside the cities. Also the morale and the will to defend their country is among of the finnish officer and nco corps, and among Finns in general, is extremly high.
Dis niggah ghost gonna come fuck them up
It also helps that Finns are, for the most part, an unified people - Russians, on the flipside, are not in the slightest.
conquest unifies the Russian peoples, same as it did their Mongol ancestors.
propaganda poster boy
2 months at a minimum
Finland couldn’t possibly hold out against Russia even with aid
A more interesting question is
>Finland Vs all of NATO
Depends on how many divisions will participate
anyway no more than 6 days to capture Helsinki and no more than a month to destroy any remaining resistance
Infinite.
The Russians still haven't taken the rest of Ukraine, a country armed with obsolete Russian weaponry. Hell, they're using fucking Maxims from WWI.
That shit hole of a nation was never a threat to anyone except their own citizenry.
>The Russians still haven't taken the rest of Ukraine
>Russia
>united
mfw
>Shittalking Russia makes you Jow Forums
Wrong, and before you bring up the winter war even in ww2 the russians would have steam rolled them had they listened to the original invasion plan of b lining it to the capitol and taking out the finnish gov.
>shills with their low effort memes can't even make sense
Hell, the entire reason as to why they're invading Ukraine is that they're a hodgepodge of dozens of groups that's held together with duct tape and vodka.
You realize a large portion of Jow Forums is pro separatist and pro Russian right?
>Russia invading Finland gives me and opportunity to meet up with my ex fiancee in Helsinki if troops form the states deploy there
I both want this to happen and not happen
Pol is 95% brainlet americans such as who can only spout muh memes and don't know shit on a subject so i guess it's okay to generalize.
If that's in that manner then yes, you can always see a poltard outside of Jow Forums by extremely low quality posts
>ukraine
No such country.
These days? Literally forever.
There is barely any Muslims in Finland.
>There are people who uniornically believe this
Russia has a massive muslim population, you idiot.
Americans have been sending them all sorts of advanced weapon systems.
Are you fucking retarded?
It depends. In "Infantry only" scenario Russia will probably stuck and fail. In all out war without WMD I give finns about 1 month - ruskies still have shitton of grads to btfo finns, and, also A2AD capabilities.
It's enough to destroy key infrastructure such as powervplants, food storages and other shit.
Except their muslim population is native and it's at a historical low.
One needs to take in consideration that the FDF has their combat-methods specifically designed to counter Russian operations.
In the south of the country there are only a handful of roads leading east-west, bordered by dense forests and swamps. If you look at a map, there are also innumerous lakes created by the last ice age, all creating a mishmash of barriers, all of which are laid out in an north-south pattern. This removes the options of executing any meaningful maneuvres that do not share a vector with the few existing roads.
The actual dispersed combat doctrine utilizes this depth by allowing hostile forces to funnel in a controlled manner down these narrow channels, abusing their need of these supply-lines and being bound to the roads, wearing down their momentum and disrupting their supply along the full depth of the battlefield, disregarding conventional frontline-based thinking.
In order to achieve an actual sustained breaktrough, the Russian forces must secure the full length of these roads or risk having their spearhead become isolated and surrounded.
Naturally this is assuming the Russians use conventional combat methods and not some more insidious and indirect means.
>In "Infantry only" scenario Russia will probably stuck and fail.
Not really
None because Russia is a third world shithole paper tiger. Fins will just btfo their 50's era outdated and poorly equiped military.
>U-Crane
>not a fictional country in a manga written by a 9 year old autist
Minus 5.
And Finland has no Muslims? It has more Russians now than Mudslimes.
depend on the town
like where i am in Kokkola/Karleby currently, they are fucking everwhere
If Russian military command was retarded then yes, they could take over Finland. They'd lose a shit-ton of men and materiel while doing so for no significant gains, and then try to hold onto a country that has one of the highest civilian gun ownership rates after USA, a shit-ton of reservists and hunters, a generally anti-russia attitude and do I really need to go on?
And that's not even before we begin to consider the aid from other European countries, or China/India/USA taking advantage of Russia spending military resources trying to get Winland.
Why would they attack Finland? even if shit hits the fan Finland would more than likely want to stay away from everything and turning them hostile achieves nothing.
