Georgian losses
I suppose one can expect the Georgians to abandon their vehicles. Georgia didn't make (and almost definitely) didn't pay for its weapons. Their imminent destruction become a given as the Russian counter-attack progressed.
The US experienced much the same thing when invading Iraq. Nothing is more vulnerable than a good tank operated by a fifth rate enemy - so the crew gets out of the hatch and runs away - to fight another day - perhaps in a different way.
