Why doesn’t Russia use artillery to destroy tanks like Ukraine does?

Russia tends to rely extensively on artillery because in their doctrine, if artillery is used properly, the infantry don't need to be as well trained since the Artillery can do the job of smashing the enemy for the infantry.

Russian artillery officers are professional and well-trained, but the process of using forward observers to "spot" artillery is very expensive and really only reserved for Russian special forces.

Western/NATO trained nations tend to use artillery spotting and push artillery decision making down to the company or platoon level, with battalion oversight. Russia tends to use its artillery to support mass fires directly at the battalion level.
