Western tanks sent to Ukraine now mostly sit idle in forests "collecting cobwebs". The $10 million machines proved no match for cheap drone swarms that now dominate the battlefield. About half of one Ukrainian tank battalion has retrained as drone operators. The remaining tanks are sometimes used to tow damaged equipment, essentially serving as expensive tractors. Of roughly 82 Abrams delivered, about 25 have been irreversibly destroyed, most of the rest damaged or hidden/stored. Out of all delivered Swedens 10 Strv 122 tanks only one is still functional.

Because Russia is a real sovereign country, not a neocolony of the West.

The tanks turned out to be useless. In some ways it's good that western countries didn't build as many tanks as Russia. Russia had 10k tanks, but most of them have already been destroyed or are simply rotting in warehouses. Armored vehicles are absolutely useless in new wars.

Wow, equipment gets destroyed in war. That's fascinating. No Russian equipment has been destroyed so far though. For every dead Russian there are 179 Ukrainian dead. Russia has also destroyed 5532 Ukrainian fighter jets in comparison with Ukraine allegedly destroying one (1) but that was actually just a rookie mistake by a Russian pilot who ejected safely. The three-day special military operation continues as planned.

aren't tanks designed to battle other tanks? what kind of explosives are these things carrying that's stronger than a 120mm shell?

Strawman post intended to deflect.
>>
>>541393482
Drones can hit vulnerable/weak parts of the armor, perform top-attack, they can immobilize the tank by hitting at tracks and then other drones in the swarm repeatedly hit the armor to weaken it and destroy/burn the tank.

>aren't tanks designed to battle other tanks?
that's right, but tanks aren't able to fly around and hit weak spots

Abrams and other Western tanks are too heavy for the war in Ukraine. They simply weren't designed for a war in Europe. Even in their base configuration with the additional armor stripped away they’re heavier than Russian tanks with full armor and all those makeshift additions. I don't mean to say that they're objectively bad or anything like that, they're just not designed for warfare outside the desert. Most European tanks have the same problem because they simply blindly follow Americans.

FFS. It's a tank. Why stay on the path?

>>541391513
Tanks ars useful to do Blitzkrieg in Kaliningrad retard before the drone warfare sets in.

See the post above. They're really heavy and have a good chance of just getting stuck if they hit mud or weak soil.

This is the claim of the Ukrainian MOD. Independent analysts have been saying for years that they're almost all destroyed or inoperable. It turns out the blow out panels don't actually help at all in a drone warfare environment, they just swap turret tossing for burning to death.

>>541391513
of course tanks are not going to be decisive when you only send less than one tenth required

Fresh vid from today. Artillery and drone units of the Southern Group of Forces have eliminated Ukrainian Armed Forces militants who were taking cover.
