 A Russian tank captured by the Ukrainian army has appeared in the U.S. A Russian tank used in the assault on Ukraine has mysteriously appeared at a truck stop in the U.S. According to the Telegraph outlet, the T-90 tank is thought to have been captured last September by Ukraine's 92nd Separate Mechanized Brigade after being used in fighting in the Kharkiv region of northwest Ukraine. The combat vehicle was left on a low loader in the parking lot of a restaurant in the state of Louisiana. Local reports suggest that after the truck towing the tank broke down, the vehicle was left at Pito's Travel Center and Casino in Roanoke, Louisiana, next to U.S. Interstate 10. Valerie Mott, the assistant manager of the restaurant said, I've been here seven years. I've never seen a tank here before, according to the war zone and online publication. Although the tank's machine guns had been removed, much of its equipment appeared to be intact, including some explosive armor used for defense against anti-tank missiles. Slab blocks on the front of the turret would at some point have housed explosive reactive armor. The vehicle protection systems consist of a quantity of high explosives sandwiched between two metal plates. When hit by a missile, the system is designed to ignite to deflect the incoming projectile. However, Russian tank crews fighting in Ukraine found to their cost that many of the protective boxes had been stripped of their explosives for sale on the black market. It is not known whether the tank in Louisiana has functioning explosive armor.
