Some of the mods in the entries you posted make the vehicles to which they've been added more attractive options.
I think Soviet AFVs would suffer disproportionate losses early in the war, when NATO's technological edge was still sharp, but later in the war, I think the relative simplicity and durability of Soviet vehicles would give them a slight advantage over the high tech-dependent NATO vehicles.
