Main battle tanks (MBTs) have not fared well in the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, particularly Soviet-era tanks used by Russia. Moscow has reportedly lost around 3,000 MBTs, including many T-90 tanks
Russia’s T-90 main battle tank (MBT) began life as a Soviet program. While most modern militaries had embraced the concept of a main battle tank and focused their production and deployment on a single variant, the Soviet army had ordered T-64s, T-72s, and T-80s.
