They simply have to re-equip, and with oil and gas prices at all time highs, they can afford to. Their recent engagements with Georgia and Chechnya showed that while they have some pretty nifty airframes and equipment, that A) there isn't enough of it to outfit their entire force, and B) their loss to kill ratio was unacceptable by the standards of a modern military due to the use of outdated equipment.
