If the largest armies in the region (Turkey and Egypt) sent everything they had, it would not come near 30,000 armored vehicles.

Maybe Syria could muster 300 for Idlib.

Idlib is an al Qaeda stronghold, rather than ISIS, but Turkey is engaged in a big train and equip mission to create a more professional Army from among the jihadis there, that will likely be their surrogate.
