The Russian armed forces have been taking Soviet-era arms out of storage as a solution to its dwindling supply of weapons despite these reserves being limited.
As Russian arms stores decrease, Russia could finally be defeated in the war in the foreseeable future if the West commits to continued and scaled military assistance to Ukraine.

If I remember correctly, the gist is that Russia can keep this up for a while, but the quality of the equipment is going down, not up. And in two years or so they will run out.

Wow, that’s a crazy amount of storage they have.
Absolutely. Not sure what it does to morale, though, if the tanks you’re receiving are getting older and older.
A new tank crew pressed to the front because their predecessors died wouldn’t know the difference.
