    Yeah, that 1500 tanks per year number made me not take the video very seriously.

      Russian factories claimed to have delivered 1,500 main battle tanks this year, of which 1,180 to 1,280 had been reactivated from storage

      They actually ‘produced’ ~300. Pulling out 1200 tanks from mothballs can only be done until stores are exhausted.
