Am I crazy or are they going to run out of tanks in like 50 days? For what I have heard they only have 700 left in bad shape (to be refurbished with difficulty) the rest is worse? Not counting the handful of brand new ones per month.

Maybe he's betting on a trump victory and whatever shenanigans that might bring?

They had 700 tanks in decent shape in storage in about July. However tanks will be in factories being refurbished and obviously a lot more tanks are on the front line. That are very likely a few thousand tanks.

So they probably will start to have problems replacing losses soonish. They might buy some from North Korea or Iran though.

Even a Trump victory would not mean an end of the fighting though. Europe is supplying more weapons then the US and Ukraine also has arms production. So no overruning Ukraine.
