According to the Kiel Institute's Ukraine Support Tracker, Russia has lost over 2,000 of the 3,417 tanks which it used to invade Ukraine in February 2022. Oryx estimates that the Russian army now has about 1,400 tanks remaining.
Ukraine in comparison has lost 550 of the 987 tanks it had at the start of the invasion and has managed to capture 545 Russian tanks, according to Oryx. Western allies have transferred 471 tanks to Kyiv, with an additional 286 expected to arrive soon. In total, the Ukrainian Armed Forces are estimated to have approximately 1,500 tanks.

Doesn't it not have to do with what type of tanks both side has most of.
Saw a video clip some days ago showing a train pulling many wagon with T54 and T55 on them.
This was inside Russia.
