Russia's War Losses as of January 19, 2026
Russia's military casualties continue to mount. As of this date, the total number of Russian personnel losses has reached approximately 1,227,440, an increase of 1,020 from the previous report. Losses in military hardware have also risen, reflecting the intense and protracted nature of the conflict. The detailed breakdown is as follows:
- Tank losses have reached 11,573 units (+2)
- Armored combat vehicles — 23,922 units (+3)
- Artillery system losses stand at 36,333 units (+39)
- Multiple launch rocket systems (MLRS) — 1,617 units (+1)
- Air defense system losses remain at 1,278 units
- Aircraft — 434 units
- Helicopters — 347 units, unchanged
- Operational-tactical level unmanned aerial vehicles (drones) recorded at 110,215 units (+765)
Overall, this marks the 1,426th day of the full-scale war in Ukraine. These staggering figures highlight the immense human and material cost Russia has incurred since its invasion began in February 2022. The data points to a sustained and significant depletion of Russian military assets, which could impact its operational capacity on the battlefield. The continuation of the war at this intensity leads to a steady drain on resources and may have strategic consequences for the future course of the conflict. Faced with mounting losses, particularly in equipment, Russia is likely to encounter increasing difficulties in sustaining its military operations in Ukraine.
