Stress is just how far today's value sits between “norm” (0) and “crisis” (100) — a fixed calibrated scale, not a verdict. It measures pressure, not a prediction of collapse.
Soviet armor stockpile remaining currently reads 28 % of pre-war, mapping to a stress of 74/100 — elevated pressure, toward the crisis end of its scale.
Across the tracked period the stress has held roughly flat (+0.0 pts).
The value is sourced via official statistics; confidence — medium. How it is derived: IISS/Covert Cabal satellite counts of open storage bases.
History is accumulating since launch — a chart appears once enough daily readings pile up.
