Being as you might be right, some quick research tuns up that some "Russian military reform" in 2008. However, this seems to be concentrated on reducing troops numbers more than anything else.

Global firepower turns up some interesting numbers, but seems to me the US comes out ahead. US is rated number one at Global Firepower.

Again, Russia has no blue water navy and zero force projection. If Russia wanted to take Florida or any part of the US it would be nearly impossible, where as the US could have boots on the ground in Ukraine in twenty-four hours.

If you have any more info on the current state of Russian's military I would love to read about it.
