The Oryx portal calculates the losses of military equipment during the Russian-Ukrainian war. At the current moment – 9 months after the start of full-scale aggression – the losses of the invaders in equipment amount to more than 8.1 thousand units. Of these, 5 thousand units were destroyed by the Ukrainian military, and more than 2.6 thousand units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine were captured in the form of trophies.
Note that the Oryx project collects information about the military losses of the parties during the war only according to visually confirmed data. So these are real numbers. Vladimir Datsenko prepared an infographic based on Oryx data and calculated how much the Russian equipment captured by the Ukrainian Armed Forces is worth. According to his calculations, Ukraine received weapons from the invaders in the amount of about $1.9 billion. At the same time, we are talking only about heavy military equipment, light weapons and ammunition do not appear in the calculation.
