A lot of equipment can be hit and remain undamaged, or are hit and can be repaired. Differentiating between that and a catestrophic kill isn't always easy.
The method of tracking shrinking levels of stockpiles isn't foolproof, but it is another data point that can roughly indicate levels of attrition, as is shown in another part of the post.

Thanks, very useful.
Also, I've read some time ago that ZSU counts ATMGs (e.g. Kornet) as "artillery" in their statistics, too.
Ah, hadn't heard that. It's not how I'd categorize the Kornet.
