Since February 24, Ukraine has captured at least 440 Russian battle tanks and about 650 other armored vehicles. Potentially, more than half of the tank fleet currently in Ukraine are trophy vehicles.
This is stated in the daily report of British intelligence.
"The fact that the Russian crews could not destroy the intact equipment before leaving or handing it over shows a low level of training and a low level of combat discipline," the British Ministry of Defense believes.
There they think that due to strong tension at the front and the demoralization of the troops, Russia will continue to lose heavy weapons.
- On September 29, Serhiy Cherevaty, the spokesman of the Eastern Group of the Armed Forces of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, said that after the Russians fled, the Armed Forces of Ukraine collected more than a thousand units of trophy equipment and weapons from their positions.
