Soviet Tank Losses in World War 2 were very high with more than 96 000 armored fighting vehicles (tanks and self-propelled guns) lost from 1941-1945. At one point in 1941 the losses reached the staggering amount of 650 tanks per day, which was several tanks divisions. Thanks to Dr. Jens Wehner for providing me with his script and data.
