Example:
There is visual confirmation of Russia having lost about 1200 Tanks. 400 of those were captured by Ukrainian forces. Thats 33%. Do you think that speaks more of the effect of western anti tank weapons or rather something else?
300 additional Tanks have been supplied by the west. Do you think external (=western) tank supply of Ukraine is Russias biggest "tank-problem", or something else?
By the way, the numbers for IFV and other stuff are in the same ballpark.
Why has the war lasted 7 months then? Ukraine should have defeated the Russians in 7 days. If what you're saying is true, this thing should be over in the next week or so.
Why cant you answer questions but have to post counter-questions?
Do you still think western anti tank weapons were a major factor?
Do you deny visually confirmed kills and captures, aka pictures taken of those occurrences?
You didnt ask where these numbers came from (source). You didnt even ask how these numbers were created, how reliable the method and people were. You dismissed the evidence because it didnt fit your narrative. "These numbers arent true, they cannot be true, because......"
Think about that if you wish.
Why do you think Russia losing 1200 tanks in 6 months means it has lost a war? A war is lost once a party acknowledges it has lost the war. Rome didnt surrender to Hannibal after Trasimene, Trebia and Cannae! Germany didnt surrender until all its major cities´ centers were reduced to rubble and russian soldiers knocking at the doors of the Führerbunker. Russia has some fife-digit number of tanks. It may decide to throw another 10.000 tanks into the meatgrinder for nothing, and still not concede to have lost the war. 1200 tanks does not mean you have lost a war, but it certainly means that you will, if things wont change.
You seem to have no idea about the most basic principles of war.
