Plus the Ukrainian military is being trained and supported by NATO. NATO war tactics will always beat the Soviet doctrine of throwing meat at a problem.

Drafted and quickly trained will never be as good the war tested troops they need to replace. Better than the Russians for sure though.
I think to retake significant areas of land they would need air superiority and at this point NATO doesn’t seem to want to provide that.
