nor are the tanks as good compared to their adversaries .....these turret poppers are a joke !

russia has thrown so much equipment in this war because of huge stockpiles ....despite what the pro russ say , these ARE finite
particularly artillery ....getting short .....and Ukraine know this and are particularly working on counter battery fire as a priority above all else
to exacerbate that

* the one exception I must note is artillery shells

Good points there Tangs.

Yep, despite the propaganda, Russia is able to restore equipment from stocks quick enough but cannot produce new equipment quick enough. Hence why we are seeing 70 year old Russian IFV's on the battlefield.

Those stockpiles are not infinite.
