the basic problem with russian tanks is that they keep getting shot at and hit when they shouldn't be. for the war they were designed for, the ammo storage is not that big of a deal since they were expected to be lost in the thousands anyway
russian tactics are just shit. you could replace every T-72 with an Abrams and they would still have lost (maybe not quite, but still a large number of) >1500 tanks (keep in mind that half that number is abandoned/captured)
