This morning....topic came up....the previous German Defense Minister had ordered no inventory of operational versus non-operational tanks since the war started.
This was to prevent any impression (within the German gov't).....that they had 'extra' tanks around which they could spare.
Apparently, yesterday....this topic came up and the new incoming Defense Minister realized the impact of this.....then gave the order....audit and count all German tanks, period.
The sad thing here if you think about it....the FSB (former KGB) of Russia....probably had a better count on German tanks....than the Chancellor or Defense Ministry. Putin could have called up Scholz any afternoon, and said....hey, I counted active tanks versus inactive tanks and you slipped sixteen over yesterday on the numbers chart.
