Hardly, info from the front outside of Twitter propaganda channels has shown otherwise. You don’t get 20% of a large country without reliable armor. Fact.

Russia didn't even maintain the tires on their supply trucks properly, leading to a lot of breakdowns from sun damage, and you think they have good maintenance on their tanks?. They have undoubtably got working tanks, but I think the quality and maintenance of those tanks is what remains to be seen.

  Where did you get this info? I feel like people are just pulling stuff out of their ass now. Russia is a near peer, of course they maintained everything. They have been preparing for this since 2012. Pretending our adversaries are magically incompetent does NOTHING for us except make us complacent. Use. Your. Brain. Do you really think any modern military isn’t maintaining the tires on they transport vehicle? Does that make any sense whatsoever?
