Well, you gotta take into consideration that 1 plant used a massive work force. Now their work force is nowhere near the amount it used to be and a lot has been done through automation of some sort.
Also, take into consideration the supply of parts and materials. USSR had a massive supply of materials and parts from multiple sources. That too has been reduced over time. Still a lot of apples and oranges. The ore of the iron made into the steel isn't all done in Uralvagonzavod.
Sure, the work force isn't there. And that's a big minus. Partially due to the 90's and everyone and their mother studying econ instead of you know actual jobs and fields worth a damn.
But the thing also is Uralvagonzavod used to be highly automated. This days from the looks of it. Not so. Like for example. Back in the Soviet days welding was done both for the hull and the turret almost entirely by automatic welding.(Something that soviets did very early on)
Now it seems to be done by hand welding. I don't know if there was some kind a agreement with the Americans that took out the machinery to do so or perhaps due to dissolution of Soviet Union supply chains for supporting such capability withered away and never replaced.
I don't know. But it's just sad to see.
