Wouldn't want to be part of a government tank crew, the attrition rate is very high. And it is about to get higher. The rebels have captured a warehouse full of Konkurs, Kornet, Fagot and Milan.
This is a different form of warfare. Light infantry using lots and lots of tube launched artillery. Mortars, rockets, RPGs, missiles. The big explosion in the video above was caused by a rebel Grad landing on a government arms depot.
The rebels have factories making some of their tube artillery and the ammunition for it.
