You literally quoted an article about Russian made BUKM3 released in 2013 and said look it can intercept missiles. So Ukranian one can too!
No I didn't please don't make things up, in post 6127 you asked for additional evidence that Buks could intercept missiles as you didn't believe Russias reports from the 90s, so I linked you a more recent source.
2) The T-72 Russia fields is heavily modified.
They are but upgraded T-72 are still inferior to upgraded T-64. It's not like Ukraine are still using tanks as they left the factory 40 years ago, these things are upgraded/modernised over time, when new things are added to the latest models they get retrofitted to the older ones during their maintenance cycles. Hence it's unlikely there's any original T-72/64 in active service in either Russia or Ukraine.
I'm not trying to be rude but it kind of shows you don't know that much about tanks and are just quoting things from Wikipedia without understanding what you're quoting (which is perfectly understandable as the USSR/Russia/Ukraine made an absolute disaster of the numbering scheme for their tanks) so I will try and explain the hierarchy of Soviet/ex-Soviet tanks:
From best to worst (factoring in latest upgrades):
1: T-14 - Not combat tested yet, but as the first "new" tank produced by any former Soviet state this century this automatically tops the list.
2: T-84 - Developed from the T-80 the Ukrainian T-84 is considered the best evolution of a Soviet era tank line.
4: T-80 - Based on the T-64 the T-80 was designed as a more modern replacement.
3: T-90 (1990s model) - Developed from the T-72 (technically an upgraded T-72, originally designated T-72BU) with some of the upgrades of the T-80 added.
5: T-64 - The main tank of the USSR throughout the 60s/70s/80s, never exported even to allies.
6: T-90 (2000s model) - Remember when I said they made a disaster of the numbering scheme? 21st century T-90s are actually a weaker model designed for export, even the Russian ones as they couldn't afford to order 90's spec armour.
7: T-72 - A highly mass producible uncomplicated tank designed as a budget alternative to it's big brother the T-64.
8: T-54/55/62 - The early cold war MBTs of the USSR, retired by both Russia and Ukraine but still in use in many poor third/second world countries, included here just so we have a baseline for worst.
This list is of course accurate only when comparing tanks that have received their latest respective upgrades.
But to reiterate the original point, no Russia would not easily win the ground war without air superiority due to superior tanks and tank numbers as they have neither.
