The crew is much more valuable and expensive than the tank. If they survived, then it has done its job.
Well it means they are using them so as long as the crews survived then good. The US sent a few dozen so no big deal
Or just say it: these tanks are sort of useless on this battlefield. Bradley’s and SV90’s are far more impressive. If I were the enemy, I shit my pants by the latter 2, not the impressive Abrams…
Drop of water in an ocean.
Who cares about 20 tanks in a war that is costing russia 10 a day.
…as was to be expected. Ukraine has worked miracles with what they got.
And the problem is that the longer the war goes on, the more time that Russia has to adapt to it, on the other hand Russia is also starting to run out of things.
The west, including NATO should be aiming for the best possible outcome for Ukraine. And right now that means supplying long range weapons to neutralise selected Russian offensive capabilities.
how many challengers and leopards have been lost?
We have thousands of Abrams. Send more.
If we supplied them adequately they wouldn’t be bare bones on their missions! Ukraine losing 20 tanks is more of a headline than Russia losing 10x that.
That’s as good as nothing.. – It’s a days or weekly tank-battle los, back in the old days.. Nowadays there are even better at-weapons – It’s a surprise and good tactics – to only lose 20 so far.
I would say/guess imho.
Ok
Then send 100 more to Ukraine
USA only supplied about 40 tanks. The age of the tank is over. The drone wars have begun
A proper measurement would be tanks lost vs destroyed.
Should we be concerned with Russia reverse engineering the Abrams?
Does anyone know how Ukraine is using them? If they use a large group of them or if they are only used to support infantry ?
