Russia has lost 467 tanks out of a total frontline fleet of 2,080.

Russia has lost 467 tanks out of a total frontline fleet of 2,080. That’s 22%. A very expensive reminder never to use MBTs without infantry and artillery support.

The Russian Armed Forces have lost (only based on visual open sources confirmations) 18/187=9.6% of its T-90A fleet, 151/1054=14.3% of its T-72B3/B3M fleet, 60/186=32.3% of its T-80U fleet, 21/72=29.6% of its T-80BVM fleet. Actual figures will probably be significantly larger with the 60 unknown pieces and a 200-pieces backlog, that still have to be accounted for.

In one word: Russian tanks losses in Ukraine are terrible. It is neither sustainable nor compensatable. There will soon be a shortage of modern tanks among the Russian ranks, and it will definitely hinder further Russian (offensive) operations.
