If this is a shift towards a high peer conflict then that implies more need for heavy vehicles like tanks.

That’s the point - the M-10 isn’t a tank, though it weighs as much as one and is too large to be used in the manner planned.

Out of the 31 Abrams tanks we gave the Ukraine, four (at last count) remain operational.
At least one or two are in red square.
