Now that WIFFs are becoming realities, it seems kind of boring - it'll hardly be worth overpainting the French markings before these get turned into burning junk.

What the...?

If they use them as MBTs some people make them out to be, going toe to toe with T-72s, sure, they won't live long. But I'm sure the Ukrainians will employ them to their strengths. Can see these providing mobile fire support to Humvee raids as in the Kharkiv counter-offensive.
And the gun is good enough to reliably kill anything starting with a B.

Exactly what part don't you get?  Everything else in Kiev's arsenal has been attrited, to the point where the west is scrapping up antique French recon vehicles.  Eventually those too will be hammered.

Yes, the Ukrainians have lost a lot in defending themselves against the Russian aggressors but they still have quite a lot, including Western supplied systems.  To give just a few examples:


* Australia has supplied 90 Bushmaster PMVs - reportedly 3 have been destroyed and 2 damaged
* A couple of hundred M113s and derivatives have been supplied by various nations - reportedly between 24 and 35 have been destroyed/damaged
* 152 M777 Howitzers have been supplied by various - reportedly 23 of these have been destroyed or damaged
* 20 M142 HIMARS supplied (so far) - nil destroyed despite Russia's multiple claims to have destroyed more than were supplied many times over.
To claim that "Everything else in Kiev's arsenal has been attrited, to the point where the west is scrapping up antique French recon vehicles" is quite an exaggeration.
