Internet photo-confirmed count is 1020 Russian, 284 Ukrainian armour, vehicles, artillery, aviation destroyed, abandoned or captured. For sure the Ukrainian numbers would be low because no one other than Russia is eager to share those photos but the Russian number is probably closer to the truth since everyone wants to share them.

The most curious aspect of these counts are the relatively low aviation losses noted. We are led to believe these would be much higher yet it would hard to wreckage so who knows.
