Russian troll factory worked hard to disprove Oryx, but failed.
I am going to be a broken record at this rate because some here just want to stick with a delusional ghost of kyiv or babushka shooting down russian aircraft with jar of pickles sources so I will go do this again for you even though its going to get memoryholed by you and many seething users here.
https://militaryland.net/maps/deployment-map/ how can you claim to be rambo if a smaller force is pushing you back and they still are? Do you have a room temperature IQ to believe that Wagner lost 30k of 40k soldiers without asking for reinforcements to regoup to immediately attack in all directions or no?
https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2022/09/07/ukraine-kherson-offensive-casualties-ammunition/ when western journos interview ukraine in the September offensives of them pushing the Russian's back this is what they had to say.
“We lost five people for every one they did,” said Ihor, a 30-year-old platoon commander who injured his back when the tank he was riding in crashed into a ditch.
Oleksandr said the Russian artillery fire was relentless. “They were just hitting us all the time,” he said. “If we fire three mortars, they fire 20 in return.”

I get it that pro-Ukraine users will listen to pro-ukraine sources, but how come pro-ukraine users dont want to listen to Pro-ukraine soldiers talking about the conflict assuming anyone here even gives a shit about Ukraine winning?
I will pretend with you that Ukraine did lose 2000 tanks and the Russians lost 5 times the amount (although there are many contradictions to this.) Why switch to western tanks? Can't be out of ammunition excuse because
1. soviet tanks have been modified to use soviet ammunition and its already dead obvious that NATO supplied and trained Ukrainian troops for 8 yearshttp://www.army-guide.com/eng/product1188.html (considering post-soviet block nations don't like Russia more than likely all their soviet tanks have been modified to use NATO ammunition when becoming a part of NATO)
2.they had an entire year to have been supplied with western equipment in case so called ammo shortages did happen.
this source was from february 2, 2022 highlighting Ukraine's equipment before of course they started getting a shitload of more tanks from the middle east and post soviet block countries. but requesting strykers, canadian armoured vehciles, bradleys, abrams, challengers, leopards more armoured vehicles, etc usually you dont go requesting all this shit a year later than prior to the war unless some country is reducing the shit out of the equipment you were using in the war, these numbers are already higher than what Oryx claims as their own tank losses.
I hope you read this because I think you are really invested Ukraine will win and if they don't, i don't know if this will make you fall into a state of depression to start drinking or hopefully not tie a noose to a tree.
