The problem for Russia is they cant make (or, really, rebuild) tanks fast enough. And that Russian tanks suck.

A single factory in Russia was responsible for 3/4 of global rank production BEFORE the war. Now it works three shifts.

The problem for the West is that military supply lines now stretch to China, and China is giving VERY LONG lead times on critical items...so the West must be very patient.

For Russia, I don’t know enough about their tanks, but they have an s-load of them. The West uses Japanese-developed ‘Inventory Tools’, which had us scrap most of our older models.
