True. Although to be fair,the Syrian Armed Forces had been left behind significantly by the time the war started in 2012 and it was obvious that the biggest part of them were just a bit better armed and trained than militias. However,there were many well-trained and modestly equipped units from divisions to brigades. The problem was...they were modestly equipped for a conventional war and not this chaos!The new army is a bunch of young men and teenagers who taught themselves how to use AK-47s and basic rocket launchers. They have no real military academy training or education on military sciences. It’s a joke.

New army of Syria is not professional and not disciplined:
Radical Islamists, Central Asian and Chechen jihadists, tribal fighters (who just take up arms as citizens).
Further it's ideological and that will cause all sort of problems, scare 25-50% of the population (Kurds, Shia, Alawite, Druze, Christians, moderate Sunnis etc).
Each offensive showed massacre of civilians without fearing persecution. Al-Sharaa has no control, or doesnt care or doesnt want to control the situation and that is very risky for Syria.
they had ballistic missiles and underground missile bases and pretty robust air defences. all gone now. can't replace those quickly, if ever.But I understand what you're saying. They had bases,weapons,stockpiles. All they needed was a good upgrade,but I didn't see the Russians or Chinese willing to help much.
Agree. They are a collection of terrorists from across the world and Jolani has not shown any ability or desire to control their worst sectarian impulses.New army of Syria is not professional and not disciplined:

you need to educate yourself about Syria's air defences...Syria had an obsolete army, no air defense or air force obsolete nothing. It was an army from the 1940s era
1980s with some 1990s upgrades and hardware.Syria had an obsolete army, no air defense or air force obsolete nothing. It was an army from the 1940s era
Stop being what you are (slaves without will) and like goebbels commit suicide. Stop supporting genocide of Palestinian children (UAE).They destroyed you tho... That counts for something tho..
Besides stop being bottom feeds forget Syria and move on. Your country is destroyed
