“Anti-tank missiles seem to be the biggest killers of tanks”
Peak investigative journalism right there 👌
I was laughing about that too. Anti-tank missiles taking out tanks? Pfft as if.
in a war that has eaten more than 6,000 Russian tanks and at least 700 Ukrainian ones
Uhh, I have trouble taking those numbers seriously
Maybe if the first number includes tanks of Russian manufacture in Ukrainian service
Get ratiod lol
Russia literally has so many tanks they’re using RC T-62s to demine. Something tells me they don’t exactly have a tank shortage.
6000/700 K/D
I am so tickled by the hubris necessary to use an actual jet engine in your tank. Maybe I’m wrong and everyone does it, but to me it seems like the kind of thing you do if you can’t imagine ever having to hide the tank, you build a giant bridge-cracker with a jet engine inside. It seems like signature reduction in a peer conflict was not something the designers ever thought about when sketching up their Big Gun Imperialism Mobile.
Both the Americans and the Soviets went to a jet turbine on their MBT at around the same time, but the Russians decided it wasn’t worth it with the next generation and went back to diesel.
Like this: “kaBOOM!”
