Russia still has the biggest number of tanks: 22,800 including 6,500 in active service. But among them only 380 modern T-90.

USA has some 1100 M1A2, and up to 4 thousands M1A1.

At time USSR fell in 1991 it had 63,900 tanks, USA had 15,600 tanks.

But T-90 is not that powerful than modernized T-72 and T-80 with new ERA, engine, Electronics, main gun and Arina+Shtora systems. There are 702 T-90 in service not 380.

Quantity over Quality Soviet Doctrine.
 
USSR maintained superiority during whole Cold War period not only in numbers, but on technical characteristics of tanks. Now situation is a bit different... But not worse. Future of course is more brilliant. By 2020 structure of US forces (the closest in numbers) will remain of about 2000 M1A2 Abrams, and several thousands of older versions as back up in reserve. Russian army structure in comparison will be composed of about 8000-10000 vehicles, by fully readiness brigades with 2300 Armata tanks of next generation (superior to anything in characteristics) and rest 60000-80000 of modernised T-72 versions, T-90, T-80 which are no worse than Abrams force in US.
