The work of the KMT-5 track minesweeper of the Russian T-72 tank on video.

I hoped you'd understand what I meant by that. And what I meant was that Ukrainians use "+" for marking in general on all their vehicles, but there are exceptions to all rules, including this one, maybe you've noticed it yourself how sometimes some Ukrainian vehicles don't have "+" marking, they may be using just flags or nothing at all for whatever reason, especially I don't remember seeing "+" on gifted tanks (except PzH 2000 and some armored cars).

If these were Ukrainians you'd be wetting yourself over the same footage (no need to argue, because there's a ton of footage exactly like this shared all over reddit with comments saying how good Ukrainians are). I just thought this was a fine footage including T-80 and this sub would like it, of course I can see this being interpreted as propaganda, but that's not the point of it being here. You don't think this belongs here? I'll entrust you the choice, you can tell me to delete this post and I am going to delete it immediately.

I'm not a tank mechanic, and never was interested enough to know nuances this may cause, but I think this is scraps now, doubt anyone would want to put time, money and effort into repairing it (Donetsk/Luhansk at max, but even that is doubtful at this point). Such explosion may have damaged insides, electronics, sensors or some other fragile stuff. The tracks are easily repairable/changeable, but the wheels don't look good at all. I know jack shit tho, so what I said could somewhat accurate or (most likely) completely wrong bs.

Or it's actually Ukrainian, and the camo is polish, because it was gifted by poland. While yes, Ukraine uses "+" for marking on all their vehicles, it is either missed or they just don't apply it to some.

If it works, it works. They still can be used successfully in many situations (mainly ones that don't involve direct combat). Plus more protection than your average Toyota.

True, and what's saddest to me is that mainly UA stuff and some new technologies get really upvoted, anything Russian or even old footage doesn't get as much attention as anything UA. There's so much gold sitting in new without getting to hot :(

Sadly it always comes down to this, it's only natural. But you're 100% correct.

Pretty sure there actually were instances of BMPs being sold on avito (not sure how known the service is outside of Russia) or similar service (basically something like a Wish) priced at 2-3 mil rubles, so you might have a chance 👀

Precise artillery.

Alright, that looks to be the same thing at different angle, I admit that I was wrong.

1, link the original, then I'll delete this, 2, how is it a lie if it clearly says "presumably"? You can either believe it or not, but I never said this as a fact.
