47th Brigade has been smoking Russian soldiers left and right with them. The optics are absolutely better than anything Russia has.
If the ground is so muddy the m1 can't work a Russian tank is not magically going to operate either.
There are countless Russian tanks that have been abandoned due to mud and recovered by Ukrainians for reuse and countless images of Russian tanks in peacetime, pre-war conditions that show them getting bogged down by mud.
An m1 with the 105mm cannon has a better ground pressure than the T90M tank. Yes, better.
It will do better in the mud than a Russian tank.
Now, the tanks supplied to Ukraine are A1s with the 120 which means they are heavier but not that much so. It's not going to be that much different than the Russian tanks and still may even be comparable when you factor in how much more armor russians are slapping on to avoid Ukrainian FPV drones.
