They don't really need or want tanks, though. For the kind of fighting that's happening in Ukraine, they're mostly death traps.

What's more, US-built tanks aren't usable, they would need months to years of training and infrastructure for maintenance and servicing.

Besides, Russia has abandoned far more empty tanks than Ukraine has lost and they're Soviet models that Ukraine utilises anyway.

What they really need is longer range artillery and rockets, anti air defence systems and so on, which is what they're being given.
