Russia's Tank Shortage Just Escalated Dramatically - The Russian Dude‬



The extent of Russian tank losses is truly significant. More than 66% of them are destroyed. A lot of them are abandoned and captured by Ukrainians, later to be reused. Russia also has very questionable production capabilities of new tanks. Due to Western sanctions, some components are no longer available. The reason for high losses is due to tactical inefficiencies and vulnerabilities. Which implications does is have for Russia's war efforts?
