@LeutnantJoker To keep it simple just for you, Ukraine started the war with upwards of 1000 tanks. It has already been receiving Soviet tanks from the former Warsaw Pact states.
Given Ukrainian desperation we can assume that those were not only not enough, but have already been destroyed in large quantities. Small wonder, considering Russia's massive artillery advantage.
We have also witnessed the NATO states furiously fighting among themselves to find more tanks for Russia to destroy and they came up with what, 100 to 200 tanks of various models? Maybe 300? There is no reason to believe that these new tanks will perform any better than the tanks the West has already been sending.
After all Ukraine hasn't been properly trained on them, the logistics are a nightmare, because they will have to be repaired in Poland, and tanks are meant for combined arms warfare, which Ukraine cannot utilise as it lacks the means.
Not to mention the large fortified lines that the Russians have prepared in the case of more offensives.
So yeah, good luck with the tanks, it's only delaying the inevitable.
