“They were committed early, first the Leopard IIs. The M1s were held in reserve, apparently in the East near Kupyansk.”

...and once they showed up, they were DESTROYED.

So, whatever - Russia will just keep destroying whatever ‘Wonder-Weapons’ the Neocons send to Ukraine.

By the way, how did that ‘Second Greatest Offensive Operation Ever’ go regarding the plan to seize Belgorod? Lots of tanks and Bradleys there had a ‘one-way trip’.

Oh, never mind, you guys likely don’t even know about it, as it’s not reported in the Western media (wonder why).

A few were destroyed.

How many tanks were destroyed on the other side?

Consider the Israeli defense of the Golan heights in 1972. The Israelis lost about two Armored Brigades defending against a massive Syrian attack. The Syrians had five mechanised divisions gutted, and they failed to take the Golan heights.
