RuZZia closing in on 50% tank loss rate. Just over 2 months of a special military operation.

Tanks don’t do well in static warfare. In fact in the modern technological era that features stealthy drones, they like naval surface combatants, may be obsolete and death traps for their crews. Many young men will die horrible deaths before “hidebound generals” and “battleship admirals” come to terms with the new realities.

They have a big inventory of tanks in storage (many likely useless, but still, a lot). They have already replaced some, and can likely muster more gradually from out of stocks (especially if operations grind down to more of a lower intensity, static trench warfare condition).

Trained and effective crews are likely to be a harder constraint on Russian Forces. A couple of more months like this, and they might well be resembling armed gangs, more than a professional Army.
