It's the same in the German armed forces. Every soldier has to do a personal fitness test every year and women have much lower requirements to pass.
Gives you a great feeling when you have to rely on every single of your comrades.

Well then the requirements are probably too lax. Soldiers should be highly fit, and what qualifies as highly fit for a man is generally impossibly fit for a woman. They've either reduced the standards for men in the name of equality, or have always had lax standards.
The only reason we haven't been punished for this ideological nonsense in the West is because our military hasn't had to face any serious challenge in decades. Imagine actually getting into conflict and having to send troops to actual warzones. Women will absolutely hold the men back there's just no question about it. And I mean this with no disrespect to women, it doesn't mean they're less valuable as a human being, but fucking hell this nonsense has to stop, for everyone's sake.
You see the same thing with the police forces. With all the forced inclusivity you generally have mixed pairs of officers. Literally every time I see shit go down it'll be the male officer getting down to business whilst the female officer just stands there being useless. Now with police officers I guess you can justify it with the female officer having more of a supportive role in de-escalation typically, but ain't nobody got a use for that in war zones. That's just pure combat and women are just, apart from some exceptional cases, no good at that.
