You assume they don't have cold war era bunkers full of tanks
Why would russia be deploying so many T-64, T-62 and even T-55 tanks if they had "cold war era bunkers full" of better tanks?
Even with Chinese chips, I don't expect they'll get much better at fixing modern tanks, though, so that's somewhat mitigated unless they get direct help from a less incompetent party. (I haven't watched the video yet)
Even if they did you're assuming they're not all just buckets of rust.
