So you mean Abrams is badass when you don't need it?

Tanks in general are no solution for anything. Focussing on tanks is stupid, because they themselvs are support units meanwhile, nothing that could change anything on its own, because they are way to vulnerable against pretty much everything. ESPECIALLY when you don't control the air. Then they are just toast.

@FreeUkraine69 The last thing good about a tank is its offensive power in modern warfare. It's firing range sucks way too much for that.

@Withnail1969 Tanks are close to worthlses in modern warfare. You can still use them as assault 'scout', send forward to force the enemy to react, so the other, high range weaponry can fire at those. Of course that's general a suicide mission. You won't overall not see tank rushes. All the modern weapon systems today can easily destroy those and do the same much better and easily that the tank rush could have achieved. It still got a place in combined arms warfare, but even there it's a small one.

@Buttercup697 Ukraine lost 2014 when it let this coup happen... then it lost again and worse, when it started a civil war against its own people who were not willing to go along with that... then it lost in the worst way possible by complete becoming an outbleeding meatshield for NATO fascism instead of just following Minsk 2. I wonder what else it will or even can lose before ceasing to exist. Not much.
