Or you know a tank that will be used in actual battle conditions where you're not going to have guaranteed support. The whole NATO strategy has been to invade small defenceless countries and brutalize people there. You don't need to worry about stuff like logistics in these situations. A real war is a different animal.

Once again, it depends on where the tanks are deployed and what training the crews have. We do not know if these weapons were deployed and used in the same way. Unless you know this, you can’t really say.

Western media has been telling us that Ukrainians have been trained up to NATO standards. So, going by that we have to assume that that's the quality of NATO training and weaponry on display.
