Don,
Now that you were nice enough to "blow up" that portion of the tank I was wondering about, I can definitely say that's not the T-90MS/M I thought was a possibility.

They say they're there, I've yet to see one in video or pictures. First ones were supposed to go to the eastern military district but Russian version might not be fielded yet.

The three main tanks expected to serve in the Russian Army they are the
T-72B3M (Our T-72B3/4 is the same tank.) tanks with the domestic sighting and observation system, T-90M Proryv-3 (Again have seen this as the T-90MS not to be confused with the export version. Yeah, my heads spinning to.) and T-80BVM tanks.

Taken from the Updates in light of Ukraine war Thread these should be here as well.
Don put this in Post 100 of the above thread.

I would follow up with the companion "book" version of the same video (And website.) in Post 101 of the above thread.

My thinking easier to look here then pausing that well done video.

Finally, the following comes from modelers as I also had in the same above thread in Post 91. I will preface the following remarks first my very general observation of a biased opinion that their information isn't a viable source in here from some.

I as having been a modeler of historical military equipment and of course race cars , would disagree with that notion. Generally speaking and the following demonstrates this, we tended to very detailed orientated with a deep sense of history that surrounded the model. It's not the stuff of kids when I first building them in my youth. The deeper appreciation came as a young adult. Just wanted to get that out there. I did appreciate the following work, especially after looking at it, VOLIA, THERE IT WAS IN PICTURES AND VIDEO ON MY SOURCES FOR THE NEWS.

I hope you'll give it a chance because the CAMO is right and it's a good read as well.

I'm off to get some much needed sleep.

Don we could REALLY use a Rip Van Winkle EMO-G-MO!?!

Good Night Everyone!

Pat
