According to the report, Moscow’s personnel losses have reached approximately 1,409,630, with 1,290 additional fatalities recorded in the latest period.
Equipment losses suffered by Russian forces
On the hardware front, Russia’s military has sustained substantial damage across multiple categories:
- Tanks: 12,081 (7 destroyed in the latest period)
- Armored fighting vehicles: 24,878 (9 new losses)
- Artillery systems: 45,388 (63 destroyed)
- Multiple rocket launchers: 1,916 (3 new losses)
- Air defense systems: 1,470
- Aircraft: 436
- Helicopters: 353
- Ground robotic complexes: 1,821
- Unmanned aerial vehicles: 390,738 (1,628 destroyed)
- Cruise missiles: 4,847
- Warships and boats: 33
- Submarines: 2
- Vehicles and fuel tankers: 116,106 (462 in the latest period)
- Special equipment: 4,385
Beyond the raw numbers, the General Staff has also provided rough cost estimates for the destroyed equipment:
- Cruise missiles: ~$14.54 billion
- Drones: ~$11.72 billion
- Aircraft: ~$13.08 billion
- Helicopters: ~$5.29 billion
- Tanks: ~$30.20 billion

- Submarines: $600 million
These figures are approximate, as only Ukraine’s General Staff holds the precise breakdown by equipment variant. The data underscores the ongoing intensity of the conflict and the mounting pressure on Russia’s military resources. The enormous financial toll-tens of billions of dollars in lost hardware alone-also highlights the long-term economic strain on the aggressor state.
These updated statistics illustrate both the duration and ferocity of the war between Ukraine and Russia, as well as the scale of losses endured by the Russian army. The high casualty numbers and equipment destruction point to fierce combat and growing strain on Moscow’s military capabilities. The estimated value of destroyed gear further indicates massive financial costs for Russia, which could have lasting repercussions for its economy.
