Once a jest, this has turned into a grim reality over a year and a half into the Ukraine invasion. Shockingly, as of August 2023, the numbers are staggering. According to Ukraine’s General Staff, Russia has lost around 4,330 tanks, 8,400 armored combat vehicles, and over 250,000 soldiers. While these figures might be exaggerated, they still signify a massive depletion of Russia’s pre-war armor arsenal, impacting both the country and the global stage. Additionally, research by Norwegian expert Ragnar Gudmundsson highlights a shift to older tanks, with losses now leaning more towards Soviet-era models. This shift prompts the question: Has Russia hit a tank supply tipping point, potentially shaping the conflict’s course and revealing the limits of its war effort? The pressing inquiry remains: what led to this, and what does it imply for the future of the War in Ukraine? Let’s find out. #themilitaryshow
