“There are tanks all over the forest, abandoned,” an unnamed reporter on the video says. “If you need one, come and get it.” Locals in a nearby village said the tanks had been sitting there for almost four months covered in snow. The armoured vehicles were identified as a mixture of T-80 and T-72 battle tanks, the workhorses of the Russian army.
It’s a tough choice. But I’d have to go for the T-80 due to its superior mobility. It doesn’t get great gas mileage, but then, do you really care what gasoline costs when you’ve got a 125mm main armament in lieu of a credit card?
