The downgraded armor also explains why Russia is blowing up so many Ukrainian Abrahams tanks.

And what's the count on Abrams actually destroyed? Pretty sure it's extremely low compared to Russian losses. And the armor doesn't explain anything - most of these losses aren't from rpgs/AT rounds or tanks fighting, they're from mine's or crews leaving open hatches for drones to drop ordnance into. A fully armored Abrams isn't gonna function very well if the amateur crew lets a grenade drop into the open door...

If you want to believe Wikipedia, which I do for non-political stuff, 5 of 31 Abrams have been destroyed.
