“The number of personnel killed serving in Russian private military companies is not clear,” he continued.
“We also estimate that over 10,000 Russian armored vehicles,” Barry revealed, “including nearly 3,000 main battle tanks, 109 fixed wing aircraft, 136 helicopters, 346 unmanned aerial vehicles, 23 naval vessels of all classes, and over 1,500 artillery systems of all types have been destroyed, abandoned, or captured by Ukraine since the start of the conflict.”
Barry’s revelation on Monday matched with a similar recent tally shared by the London-based International Institute for Strategic Studies.

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Moscow has suffered such devastating losses in Ukraine that Russians soldiers have been forced to utilize decommissioned weapons from the Cold War on the frontlines of the latest conflict.
Those weapons reportedly include rusted ammunitions and “Frankenstein tanks” made up of “cobbled together” pieces of destroyed armored vehicles.
"Russia's ammunition shortage in eastern Ukraine is reportedly so severe that its troops there have reportedly been issued with completely unusable munitions,” one Russian military source spilled.
“Including shells which are so rusty they have simply disintegrated.”
