Russia would sell their stuff and it would perform poorly in encounters. We all thought it was the personnel. Who knew it just sucked?
It won’t be zero. There are lots of countries that can’t buy weapons because they make China seem benign. In a third world place where starvation is normal, a tank is a tank is a tank. Nobody has the means to overcome it. It Egypt tanks are used as mobile pill boxes, moving about with no infantry because they are big, impenetrable (by the starving masses) steel boxes. Also, they make great machine guns. Those never go out of style.
Good thing our tanks and ships are immune to these drone attacks.
How much of this is American disinformation. And ukraine disinformation.
I think the people in procurement are smart enough to base their policies on reality and not on Daily Mail propaganda.
Helicopters and jets are cheaper and they’re of a proven quality. Plus 3rd world military are user to Russian equipment. That’s why the Afghan military flew Russian helicopters (before the fall of Kabul).
Zot all Russian Trolls.
The free republic Putin fan boys have helped Adam Schiff paint Conservatives as putin supporters.
