The ": Moscow" attribution tells you everything about how useless this headline is
Remember when they said they had destroyed a bunch of bradleys even before any had been shipped to Ukraine?
Sadly this time it seems to be at least somewhat accurate.
There's been atleast 3 confirmed Abrams lost and atleast 1 HIMARS. Seems likely that they may have gotten a few Patriot launchers aswell.
Damn bro you’re getting mad downvoted for being fully correct. Some of the numbers in this article are relatively credible from what I understand*, but in general it’s bad practice to take Russian or Ukrainian claims at face value. Both have an incentive to lie for the purposes of morale, propaganda, and - especially in Ukraine’s case - international perception. Russia’s lies have been particularly egregious though the war, with claims that are physically impossible (see: Russia’s claim earlier in the war to have destroyed an Abrams tank months before they even arrived in Ukraine.)
*I haven’t checked open source loss data or anything, so take this with a grain of salt.
