Thank you for the detailed analysis. I have a notion that the US and NATO are not sending their main battle tanks for several reasons, one is that they don't want to deplete their own stocks, but more importantly, they don't want to endure the embarrassment of having them fare poorly on the battlefield. They are not particularly durable and reliable under harsh battlefield conditions, and require too much tending and maintenance. They would almost certainly be dispatched quickly on the front lines which would be highly embarrassing and telling of the paper tiger nature of Western armaments. They are often too complicated and too prone to problems. They were built for profit, not for war.
