#5   Ukraine has, per its records, knocked out about twice as many tanks as JJ notes.

Also, tanks are only one type of armored vehicle. For every tank knocked out, Ukraine says they've gotten 2 other armored vehicles, typically troop carriers and about 2 trucks or tankers.

#3  50 tons x 2,000lbs per ton = 100,000 pounds x 900 tanks = 90,000,000 pounds of scrap metal.

#2  The T-72 is barely 50 tons. It, like all the tanks produced in the Soviet Union were intended to be medium tanks.

#1  70 tons x 2,000lbs per ton = 140,000 pounds x 900 tanks = 126,000,000 pounds of scrap metal.
