So true. I've always said "shit Russians" about Russians to my wife and it nearly cost me my marriage several times. Not any more. Edit: _I started to watch some KZbin travel channels that showed the life of average Russians and I was about to change my point of view. But this war set me back a lot of years.

People have said tanks aren't useful anymore because anything can threaten it at just about any distance below 4km, but nobody will truly understand the importance of a tank until it's unavailable for support. Even the dated T-55/62 tanks, vehicles without any modern protection systems, are valuable to a military just from the fire support they can provide at a moment's notice when Artillery is unavailable.

OK,2.1 ------- Ukraine is running out of Ammunition for its 122mm, 125mm, and 152mm Artillery Guns! But America Does have MILLIONS of 105mm, 120mm (M-1 tank), and 127mm (Navel deck gun) rounds that can be Sabatized and used in Ukraine's Guns... The U.S. 105mm Projectile using a Sabot will fit the Ukraine D-30 122mm guns adding miles to its range (lighter more streamlined shell). While the much more capable U.S. 120mm Tank round with simple bands around the projectiles will fit both the Ukrainian 122mm Artillery and 125mm tank Guns with about the same range as the Original Shells.. With millions of used Powder Cases for Ukraine Artillery and Tank guns just laying around Ukraine, waiting to be reloaded with U.S. Powders... Then there is Ukraine's 152mm guns that could use the U.S. Navies 127mm Projectiles with a Sabot using standard NATO 155mm powder bags that with half the weight of the Standard 152mm round, could attain velocities out of their 52cal Berrals of 1,200+ meters/sec giving Ukraine's 152mm guns 5 to 10 Miles of additional range... With the New Smart GPS Guidance Fusses the U.S. has for its rounds and the longer ranges, the Smaller, Incredibly Accurate U.S. shells would be twice as effective as the original large, heavy, less Accurate, Russian Shells! The U.S. shells would be Able to hit within a few meters of their targets with the first shot from far OUTSIDE the Ranges of the Original Russian Guns! K1--- With the Ability to fire American Shells in Ukrainian GUNS; Ukraine can stop RESTRICTING the Numbers of Artillery Shells used on all of its Russian targets as well as Restricting the Number of TARGETS fired on... That has Been Greatly Reducing UKRAINE's Artillery's Effectiveness for its ENTIRE ARMY as Ukraine's Stocks of Shells grow Smaller and Smaller each day, reducing the Number of shells and Targets fired on, as the WAR Progresses.!!! K2---- With American Sabbatized Shells in Ukraine Guns; Ukraine Artillery will become more effective than it has ever been, as Ukraine Floods Russian tanks and Troops with enough Shells to dig the Holes and then BURRY Them!!! K3---- WITHOUT American Sabatized 105mm, 120mm and 127mm Shells for Ukraine's Soviet GUNS; UKRAINE Runs OUT of Ammunition in a Matter Of Months and Loses the War within DAYS to Russia's 5,000+ GUNS!!! That the Pittifully Few hundred NATO-supplied guns are helpless to even Slow, Let alone STOP! ----- That is Unless -----** K4--- UNLESS America sends another 2,000, 155mm Artillery Guns (Which America HAS in Dusty Storage Depots), to Ukraine in the NEXT MONTH to allow time for training Ukrainian crews before Ukraine's Artillery becomes totally ineffective from lack of shells!!! Or start sending American Sabatized Shells... Ukraine and the Survivors of 40 million Free Western Men Women and Children, become Russian Slaves... Living on the Mass graves of the Millions who refused... If Biden and the WEST refuse to SEND what is Desperately needed... NOT FIGHT!!! Just SEND!!! K5--*** CALL and Write Biden and your Senators and Representatives to Demand America send Ukraine 105mm, 120mm and 127mm Sabatized Shells and More 155mm M-777 Guns, NOW!!! *** Or watch PUTIN Create one HUGE Ukrainian Country-wide Artillery Incinerating Death CAMP!!!

1:40 Being able to wear that hat makes up for at least some of the danger of fighting I am sure.

Deep respect and love to all those people, and to the civilians and refugees enduring this freakshow nightmare. Ukraine is invaded and reduced to rubble twice every century-- even the Swedes tried it. But it just never works out. And it's always the same thing-- no one thought the Ukrainians would be as tough as they are. The same thing is happening now, and maybe this time the planet will remember. Peace.

This tank has some big problem... not easy to load and takes too much time Get the K2 black panther for the UA army

The shells are being loaded and stored into the autoloader system which holds 28 rounds. The tank t64 actually has a very fast fire rate of 8 rounds per minute from the auto loader system.

Not only should tanks support infantry, but the infantry should support the tanks. The Russian army has failed to effectively combine infantry and tanks in mutual support. This has led to major losses of armored vehicles by the Russians and was key in driving the Russians out of northern Ukraine around Kiev and has made their attempts to advance in the southern part of the Ukraine so costly.

Being an infantry screen near tanks is one of the most dangerous jobs you could ever do. Since the Russian forces are very low on personnel, they literally cannot afford to have infantry screens.

The size and firepower of the infantry support vehicle just took a leap into the higher league… MBT guns are QUITE a bit bigger than the ones on the BMP and BDR
