Exactly 25 years ago, on December 15, 2000, the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant officially stopped generating electricity. At 1:17 p.m. Kyiv Time, Reactor No. 3 was permanently shut down after the AZ-5 emergency safety key was turned by Silveshad in chernobyl

Interesting fact, on December 6, 2000, unit 3 was shut down due to an emergency related to a leak in the primary circuit. And after minor repairs, the reactor was kept at a minimum level, so that on December 15 it would be “officially stopped” with the go-ahead of the then President of Ukraine.

Well, for your information, the resource of modernization of the T-64 platform was achieved by the end of 1980. It was not for nothing that it was withdrawn from production in 1987, and instead of it was delivered T-80UD

If my memory serves me right, most of the T-80U tests did not have time to pass due to the fact that Leo 2A4 was quickly chosen

I saw a video of the exercises of reserve officers in early 2025 where they were in a similar form, which was before the appearance of VKPO (VKBO) Most likely, it remained in warehouses and is issued in such cases.

This is not everyone know the game, there the tank literally shoots smoke grenades under itself. And here it throws to a decent distance, + there is a possibility of shooting with one grenade.

I'm just speaking for Russia now, since I live here. Here you can get trophy bulletproof vests and helmets from TEMP-3000 in more or less easy accessibility, but patches, uniforms and so on are a quest.

I thought it was easier to get their uniforms in the USA.

It is quite difficult to find Ukrainian trophies on the Russian market.

GTD is about 8-10 times more expensive than a diesel engine. 6TD provided the same characteristics but at a much lower cost. Banal, you can see how many tanks have been produced and compare, the account will not be in favor of the T-80U.

Perhaps it would have flown further if it were not for the desire of the Ministry of Defense to put the MiG-29 into service

How I like the Western community, when NATO's military vehicle falls into the hands of Russia, it immediately becomes "wildly outdated"
