Re: MBT's
Since Dons post prior to this I believe the T-55S discussion has shifted somewhat.
I would refer you to the SPA and SPAA Thread Posts 240 -242 for further.
Now for something you'll be hearing about more from me later. I knew Russia was digging deep into their stockpiles of early " new" post WWII tanks. However, over the next three years Russia intends to modernize 800 T-62M & T-62MV tanks. That number doesn't include the 40 confirmed combination that has already been fighting in the Ukraine. You would do well to read the following it covers this issue but goes much deeper to grasp the situation with Russian armor.

I don't remember posting the following but, the situation on the ground since this was published back in April this year bears out much of what is discussed in the following and also borne out in the above ref as well. I feel the same about this article as the above one.

The following has been UPDATED concerning the Czech Republic sending the Ukraine both the T-72M4 and BVP-2 IFV combat vehicles. It's not happening! (At least not now.) .
They were sent to Poland as part of a joint exercise.

Well one of my tanks that I predicted several++ years ago would be in the game, will be.
