I asked a German combat engineer ( / buttjerfreimann ) fighting in Ukraine with the Legion what he thinks about the situation that Russia is getting T-55s out of storage. Of course, there were a lot of reactions on twitter and elsewhere. Yet, I wanted to know what an actual soldier fighting in Ukraine has to say about it, since he unlike most of us has actually skin in the game. I also asked him about various other assessments, e.g., if he would prefer fighting a T-72 without explosive reactive armor like a T-72M versus a T-55 with a lot of explosive reactive armor, like the T-55AMV.
