These are just visually confirmed. Real number is likely 2,400+

this is how Russia fights do you still not get it after 18 months ?
they said in 18 days after the start of the war Ruble will be in freewill and 18 months later its stronger than ever
6 gigantic vehicle factory's are running 3 shifts a day
Uralvagonzavod, Kirov Plant, Omsk Transmash, ChTZ-Uraltrac, Zavod and Uralmash
between them they can rebuild, overhaul and new build over 1,800 tanks per year
These factories can outstrip any tank production facility in the World
further
UralVagonZavod Russian -Tank plant
Komsomolsk-on-Amur - Aircraft Plant
Almaz-Antey Corporation- Artillery Shells
Votkinsk Machine Building Plant - Islander Missiles
all leave is cancelled and they are in overdrive to produce weapons like no tomorrow

Russia can produce at most 250 new tanks per year, about 20 new tanks a month. They are losing tanks far faster than they can produce.
Russia is reaching deep into their Soviet stocks to replace lost tanks. They have around 3,000-4,000 usable tanks left.
By end of year or early next, Russian losses will likely exceed 3,000. Russia can sustain its armor for another 1-2 years at current loss rates.

and Ukraine will get 31 x Abram + 14 x Challenger tanks
add In all the Leopards and French ones its less then 250 tanks in total
and Russian tanks loses were greater at the start now they have adapted and actually 1,700 were lost in first 12 months
This is nonsense. Russia has one tank factory: UralVagonZavod. The rest may be able to overhaul 50 year old tanks from stocks, but they are not able to produce new tanks. When Ivan is done seaching the woods for USSR leftovers, Russia have UralVagonZavod to rely on.

I am not sure what sources you are consulting but Russian tank production capacity is a lot to be desired:
In one of the paragraphs, British journalists refer to russian media and say that russian "Uralvagonzavod" armor plant can produce up to 20 tanks, and in the other fragment they say it "rebuilds about eight tanks a month". And here's the dilemma, does the plant each month deliver 20 new tanks + 8 refurbished, or 20 combat-ready tanks in total.
Then, we find out that the other repair plants "each refurbish around 17" a month. Although it would be more correct to say those are the plants owned by the russian ministry of defense, therefore they don't have an option to build new tanks "from scratch" in general.
Especially given that the enterprises from this sampling make quite "heterogeneous products". For instance, one of these three plants is the 103rd Armor Repair Plant in Transbaikal which is specialized in modernization of T-62M tanks from local wartime reserve stocks.
Moreover, The Economist considers the plans by the russian ministry of defense to build two more armor plants as a fait accompli, already built and ready to start working anytime soon. Therefore, the russian tank production and refurbishment capacity will reach 90 vehicles per month, based on the fact the new plants will add another +34 tanks to this capacity.
However, this is the case when quantity does not convert into quality at all. That is, for example, these "refurbished" tanks now have almost no high-tech equipment to provide sufficient fire accuracy. It becomes all the more important now, since the russians tend to use their MBTs as "improvised howitzers" for indirect fire.
Even if the numbers don't line up, the described tendencies are well indicative: the russian army loses many times more equipment than the industry can put back in line. The military industry of the russian federation failed to drastically increase the number of tanks produced, even despite hiring more employees and switching to a schedule of 12 working hours per day.
How Many Tanks a Month russian "Uralvagonzavod" Can Produce, Really | Defense Express
The numbers below may be approximate but the tendencies are clear and quite interesting

If Russia could produce 1,500 tanks a year, it would not be refurbishing obsolete tanks
Since last February, the Russian army has had losses in Ukraine estimated at between 2,000 and 2,300 tanks, around half of its best tanks, according to the International Institute for Strategic Studies, a U.K.-based think tank.
To compensate for the loss, Russia is refurbishing tanks manufactured in the 1950s and1960s. According to the Conflict Intelligence Team, an independent Russian organization, these include obsolete Soviet T-54 and T-55 tanks, the development of which began before the end of World War II.
Russia Has Lost Two-Thirds of Tanks in Ukraine: Intel
Russian forces have reportedly lost two-thirds of their tanks in Ukraine and are struggling with obsolete Soviet-era vehicles.
www.thedefensepost.com
Russia has written off probably around two-thirds of the roughly 3,500 tanks it had in active service before the wider war. Russia’s two main tank plants meanwhile are struggling to build more than a couple dozen new tanks a month, owing in part to a shortage of high-tech components that’s exacerbated by foreign sanctions.
High losses and low production help to explain why most of Russia’s replacement tanks are old tanks that technicians pulled out of open storage, lightly refurbished and sent to the front with few or no major upgrades. A survey of reequipped Russian regiments is like a tour of a tank museum. There are 1978-vintage T-80s, T-62s from the mid-1960s and even T-55s from the late 1950s.
The latest Russian museum tank to roll into combat is the T-72 Ural, the original model of the tank type that has been standard across the Russian and allied armies for five decades. The Uralvagonzavod factory in central Russia manufactured Urals for just a few years before switching to improved T-72 models in the late 1970s.
As Tank Losses Top 2,000, Russia Is Deploying Museum-Grade T-72s From 1974
A 1974-vintage T-72 Ural might look a lot like a T-72B3 from 2023. But on the inside, it’s a totally different—and much cruder—vehicle.

Modern tanks are sophisticated machines and cannot be mass-produced like T-34 in World War II. Soviet Union also received a large number of tanks through American Lend-Lease program in World War II but no such thing for Russia in the present.

People who believe in this silly Ukraine propaganda should have their brains checked. Russians are mercilessly killing and destroying Ukrainian aka NATO soldiers and their equipment on a scale comparable to WW2.

Russian equipment losses:
Ukrainian equipment losses:
These losses are well-documented with photographic evidence.
Dedicated observers have access to advanced technologies and informants on the ground to collect this type of information.

I have found that Westerners are accustomed to using static thinking to analyze paper data, which is very different from the thinking habits of Chinese people.
Economics has a fundamental rule: demand determines productivity. So the manufacturing capacity of Russian tanks will increase as the war continues.
We can even predict that a large number of military orders will reactivate and expand Russia's heavy industry.
The USA should not awaken this sleeping bear. If we consider long-term geopolitical interests, this is a big trouble, not only for the USA, but also for China.

Russia has initiated discussions with India and others to buy back Russian weapons. May be a good opportunity for the Indians to off load Soviet junk.I am not sure what sources you are consulting but Russian tank production capacity is a lot to be desired:
