Ukraine’s Defence Forces killed 480 Russian invaders over the past day. In total, 274,950 Russian soldiers have been killed in Ukraine since the beginning of the full-scale Russian invasion.
Also a large assumption but they have to trade the weight of the hybrid system for something. They can’t just keep adding weight to an already overweight system
They may. Idk. The electric motor can be used to add a lot of torque from a standstill, so it may be fine. I really don’t know how much weight, as a percentage, the batteries will add compared to all the armor it already has. The hybrid system will improve efficiency though (imagine how much regenerative breaking will return with that beast of a machine stopping), so offsetting some of the weight with a smaller fuel tank may be viable.

Either that or find a smaller or more efficient fuel motor (turbine?) to save the weight
