In 2024, Uralvagonzavod could transfer to the Russian troops about 200 T-72B and T-72B1 tanks, modernized to the T-72B3 standard.

In addition, the Russian army could have received approximately 60-80 new-production T-90M tanks, as well as a certain number of tank support combat vehicles, Defence24 reports . This amount is clearly insufficient to cover the losses of Russian forces during a full-scale war, which some experts estimate at approximately 3,700 tanks.

It is worth mentioning that this figure includes not only destroyed but also damaged and captured vehicles. The number of destroyed Russian tanks is estimated at approximately 2,600 units.

Defence24 notes that Moscow is running out of strategic reserves of some types of combat vehicles that were produced in the Soviet Union. First of all, we are talking about tanks of the T-80 family, the reserves of which are "mostly exhausted".

The number of T-72 tanks is also decreasing. This means that over time there will be a shortage of vehicles suitable for repair and Russia will have to rely only on current production, which does not meet its needs.

Experts remind that at the moment "Uralvagonzavod" is the only Russian enterprise that produces tanks "from scratch". Others are only capable of repairing and modernizing such equipment

The war in Ukraine is draining Russia's inventory of weapons faster than replacements can be built, while industries critical to the defense sector warn on high interest rates.

More evidence is piling up that Russia's military-industrial complex is nearing the brink after nearly three years of fighting in Ukraine.

In recent months, leaders in the defense industry and adjacent sectors that are critical to the war machine have sounded alarms.

Contractors in the Russian defense industry are reporting nonpayments and higher financing costs, Alexandra Prokopenko, a fellow at the Carnegie Russia Eurasia Center, told the Washington Post. Meanwhile, other analysts have predicted that the Russian economy can't sustain Putin’s war on Ukraine past next year as the ability to replace battlefield losses with Cold War weapons runs out. For example, the military is losing about 320 tank and artillery cannon barrels a month, while Russian factories can produce only 20 each month, forcing the Kremlin to dig into aging Soviet stockpiles. But that’s not enough, and Russia will run out of barrels sometime in 2025, according to a recent analysis in Foreign Policy magazine.

The situation was dire even last year, when Russia's largest movie studio donated about 50 tanks and armored vehicles from the 1950s that it had been using as props.
