[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I understand that, after so many discussions, both the US and Germany are sending tanks to Ukraine. i was just surprise to learn that apparently the US is sending 31 tanks, and Germany initially 15 if I am correct. I knot nothing about war and combat but I thought that tanks are used in the hundreds on the battlefield and I am not sure how such a small number of tanks is going to make any difference. Can anybody who understand this stuff explain to know-nothing like me who would like to understand? TIA[/quote]

It's complicated.  Our tanks are objectively better than the Russians' tanks, ours, and the Leopards and some of the other Western ones now making their way to Ukraine were specifically designed to hunt and kill the Russians best tanks, and to be resilient against them.  They are much more sophisticated, they are faster, more accurate, computerized, and so on.  Each one of our tanks is worth several of theirs on the battlefield.

They might be, but how will ~50 western tanks fair against the 10k or so tanks that Russia still has left.[/quote]
