T-72 Tank Limits in the 1990 Conventional Armed Forces Treaty (CFE)

In the 1990 Treaty on Conventional Armed Forces in Europe (CFE), the Soviet Union (USSR) agreed to specific limitations on the number of tanks it could possess and deploy. According to the treaty, the USSR was allowed to have a maximum of 20,000 battle tanks, including models such as the T-72.

It is worth noting that the CFE Treaty imposed limitations on the overall number of tanks, but it did not specify the exact breakdown of tank types or models within that limit. Therefore, it is not possible to provide an exact number of T-72 tanks specifically in 1990.

However, the T-72 was one of the most widely produced tanks during the Cold War, and it was heavily utilized by the Soviet Union and its Warsaw Pact allies. It is estimated that the USSR had thousands of T-72 tanks in its inventory during that period.

Please keep in mind that these estimates and figures may vary depending on different sources and the specific time frame within the year 1990.
