the US Army Guide has this

Strengths of units are given in overall manpower to the nearest
thousand and current tank (or assault gun) strength. Most of
these units have additional numbers of lighter armored vehicles
and soft-skinned tactical vehicles. They have also acquired nonissue
vehicles by various means

Now it does give the authorized levels they had pre-war - so that tells you what authorized vehicles they had to give you a guide what they had left over

Soviet Guide has a similar statement

the howitzers ratio of 1-2 per 1000 men is stated in the Guide but cant find anything on APC's or for lighter vehicles like HMMVW
