The Myth of the Mighty Russian Tank

A few pictures that Russian armor fans don't want you to see...

Yeah, I know that some of these are Iraqi & Chinese built, but so what? They're still the same Russian/Soviet design.

I'm especially amused by their "Jack-in-the-Box" pop-off turrets

Over 10,000 views now. Not a lot by YouTube standards but a mile stone nonetheless. I'd like to thank all the Russian fanboys hate, without which this would not have been possible ;-P

Yay! I got my 100th dislike from the mongoloid Russian. Keep 'em coming haters, if it pisses you off, it's gotta be TRUE!

Yea, but what you don't mention is that those Iraqi tanks where EXPORT models, produced cheaply with reduced armour thickness, no ERA, no composite armour, and a lot of features removed, i.e. no active protection systems. The U.S. also sells a similarly downgraded Abrams to Egypt and a few other countries.

These are mostly georgans tanks made in Russia and destroyed by other Russian tanks. I saw some of these tanks are older than the music in this video. Dude your a faggot . Can you make up compilation of destroyed American tanks in Afghanistan and Iraq idiot .. Tanks are only as good as the tank commander people are always finding better ways to destroy tanks an rpg 7 can easily destroy any armor 3000 millimeters penetration rpg 7 is over 50 years old tech

LAME. Everyone knows T-90 and crew are the best in the world, I'm American and I'll even admit that!

Send ABRAMS  to Georgia (Gruzia former soviet republic) and tell them to attack again.

Russians will make sure video is made of desteoyed Abrams tank.

TANK is not intended to fight AIRPLANES dumb American fucktards.

@flossy26 An RPG 7 can't penetrate an Abrams or a Challenger.

...continued: However, the Soviets didn't need better tanks, the M1, Challenger, Leopard, T 80 all came during the cold war, Soviet doctrine relied on armor quantity, very much like it did in WW2, the Soviets had no less than 55000 tanks in 1990. NATO doctrine stated the use of mobile and static defense with reserves in the second line and a ton of air support. Apache and A 10 etc. So who wins is anybodies guess.

I love tanks, from the Tiger to the Abrams they are BADASS!!. What the video shows is true, Russian tanks are more vulnerable to RPG fire, anti-tank mines etc. due to being less lightly armored. However, in todays world of combat, tank on tank warfare is usually fought at ranges of 1000-3000 yds, sometimes closer depending on the battle environment so a 125mm chinese gun would knock out the abrams at 1000 yrds using the APCR round easily, at longer ranges the west would have a clear advantage...
