A 20% loss of equipment reported in this counteroffensive has the sound of heavy valuable equipment losses on the surface and to the civilian minds, yes, but not in prospective of heavy operations that the Ukrainians have embarked upon. For a loss may be accounted for in different manners. A loss may not be destroyed but battle damaged to be recovered, still the responsibility of the commander to report as a loss when the unit is not battle worthy for what ever reason.
Not sure how the Ukrainian army is organized in response as how their battle-damaged recovery equipment units' system is organized. For as of the Bundeswehr which is similar to the American system. The primary goal of battle-damaged equipment recovery is of a two-level maintenance programme of once recovered units. This is to generate-regenerate combat power and to preserve the capital investment systems and equipment, respective of the life cycle of each equipment unit.
Non-the-less, it needs be reminded for each Panzer loss as gifted from Germany, was paid for with the brow sweat of German Labour.
