  3041 (+3) Tanks
  6108 (+2) Armored Personnel Vehicles
  2051 (+12) Artillery Systems

  4759 (+14) Other vehicles
  182 (+1) Special Equipment
context: Just reading about the Bradley Fighting Vehicle... Russia has gotten itself into a complete morass. Just everything they bring to the field the rest of the world provides equal and opposite strength plus a bit more, bleeding them out.
  It's a fair argument that the restricted flow of equipment to Ukraine in one sense prolongs the fight but it casts the whole war as a situation that can cease anytime Russia wants it to by GTFO, which hopefully will mean a lasting peace. >
