@SakhForester Not just in air - remember 6x artillery advantage. Also huge advantage in number of tanks and IFV. Also in production capability.

Also it is known that pickup trucks were very successful against M1A1 in Iraqi service. Thus clearly the problem was not the tank. The older Leopard 2s given to Ukraine are in every way inferior to latest Russian tanks - not that it matters so much in this war.

@Vat Nik Well, if you are a tank nerd then you need to study both t-72 and t-90. Soviet tanks had ability to fire on the move for a long time and it got progressively better. In upgraded t-72 you have modern fire control and decent 2nd gen thermals. In t90m you have full hunter killer ability i.e. Both gunner and commander, 3rd gen, and a good ballistic computer. Thus, t90m has better sensors than latest M1. Overall t90m is tire 1 tank, it is one of the best in the world, same class as latest Abrams or leopard 2 a7. It is better by a wide margin than say British Challenger. For a nerd you need to read more, I suggest tankgrod.

Last time Soviet armor met with Western one, Soviets ended up in Berlin ;) Now Ukraine will repeat same mistake - remember Soviets are not idiots - they sent first man to space - their tech is high.

@Szminsky Where was I wrong? Well? Soviet armor did meet western one and Soviets won. Soviets did send first man to space - their tech was quite high. Russia is successor state to Soviet Union. Ukraine "leadership" is making identical mistake to west during WWII and later on, during Korean or Vietnam wars.
