Russia has lost more than 7,000 units of armored vehicles in Ukraine - the UK Ministry of Defense

The Russian Federation can produce up to 100 tanks per month, so it retains the ability to replace losses on the battlefield and continue offensive activity at such a level in the near future, according to the British MoD. The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation lost more than 7,000 units of armored vehicles in Ukraine during a full -scale Russian invasion. This is stated in the report of the UK Ministry of Defense for January 29.

- The British Officer noted that from February 24, 2022 to January 25, 2024, Russian land troops probably lost about 2,600 major combat tanks in Ukraine and 4,900 other combat armored vehicles. In 2023, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation lost about 40% less equipment than 2022.

The British Ministry of Defense stated that the reduction of the amount of lost equipment is due to the fact that the war had become more positional, and the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation were in defense for much of the year. Since October 2023, when the Russian army intensified offensive in eastern Ukraine, the losses of their armored vehicles began to grow.

During this period, the Land Forces of the Russian Federation probably lost up to 365 major combat tanks and 700 combat armored vehicles, but were able to capture only small territories. "Russia can probably produce at least 100 major combat tanks per month, and therefore retains the ability to replace losses on the battlefield and continue offensive activity at such a level in the near future," the message reads.

Recall that during January 28, the Russians lost half a thousand people in battles in the east and south. The hottest plot - Avdiivka and Marinka, where almost 50 attacks of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces were managed to repel. Earlier it was reported that on January 29, the German editor of the German edition of Bild stated that Russian troops seem to control 10% of Avdiivka.
