>while western intelligence community flubbed the two important things that were worth discovering, namely the T-64
The Team Yankee comic adaptation coming couple years after the novel is funny in that regard since it makes a well meaning over-correction in thinking the T-64 was the primary Soviet MBT and that the T-72 was export only. There was a lot of fog of war.

>tanks, not AFVs
No.The graph has MBTs and armored infantry transports in different categories. The Warsaw Pact had roughly the same advantage in the latter category as the former.
Also keep in mind that we're entertaining Reformer wish fulfillment fantasies. Western IFVs have been scrapped for being filthy multi roles. So you're primarily looking at M113s APCs vs tens of thousands of Soviet BMPs. Soviet kleptocracy undermining them isn't impossible, but you're making things harder on yourself if you're primarily counting on it.
