Plot evolution of tanks lost by type

[gorkang]

Thanks for maintaining this repo. It is a fantastic source of information.

I wanted to see the evolution of tanks lost by tank model and created a script using your data. Just wanted to share it with you, in case you are interested in adding an extra plot here.

Cheers.
