Not if your opponent is operating old tech T-64s, T-72s and T-80s. It's all relative.

A key ally of Putin said he wants to invade Poland next, ignoring Russia's inability to capture Ukraine
Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov said it was his intention to turn to Poland after Ukraine, while predicting that the Ukraine war will end this year.
When everyones got the same 125mm gun, its he who shoots first wins the gunfight.
The Orcs can call it a 'T-90', but its just a warmed over T-72 at heart, and the Orcs are fielding ancient T-62's in increasing numbers.

Yes, agreed. But you were referring specifically to the "latest Orc wunderwaffe", the T-90M Proryv. Do you consider all Russian-origin tanks to have the same abilities because they share a gun calibre? I would argue you need to consider the situational awareness, communications, target acquisition and fire control systems, in addition to any advances in protection and mobility, not solely the pointy bit at the front.
This...
Is not this...
I worry that we're beginning to percieve the Russians like we did the Japanese at the beginning of the Pacific War, as clueless, can't fight, useless weapons, etc. But I imagine if you asked the UAF soldiers they'll tell you that the Russians mean business and must be respected. I'm sure the UAF would love to have a couple hundred T-90Ms to replace their worn out 1970s era T-72s.

Just wondering about the Leopard I. It seems to be much lighter than the other tanks so would it be useful in a Dnipro river crossing? I have no idea what "sea lift" capacity Ukraine might have. Maybe they could borrow some C-5As?

Speaking of T-90M. Compare gun movement of this ones vs the stabilization on a leo 2 (or even a leo 1)

C-5As need friendly airfields at both ends. For river crossings, boats and mexiflotes make much more sense than C-5s. Internally, rail lines and tank transporters

Another joke crashes and burns.
When the Leopard 2's turn up, grab the beer and put it out.

That's a lot of rocket launchers.
Just a handful of them are causing Russia serious logistic issues in Ukraine.
