RE: Ukrainian drones attack Russian naval base AGAIN!

in Deep Dives2 years ago

Russian propaganda claims that Soviet t62 tanks or on par and more than a match for any European tank. Which is a horrible misconception that is going to cost a massive amount of Red army personnel. With the way this entire conflict is going it isn't going to be much longer until we start seeing Ukrainian forces being able to have a massive amount of scrap metal to build anything they want this is a huge amount of equipment that will be turned into farm machinery.

Lololol!

First:

March 17, 2003 - The T-62 was armed with the world's first smoothbore tank gun, giving it considerably greater muzzle velocity than the Western 90 mm and 105 mm tank guns of its time. [13] [14] It can fire BM-3 APFSDS -T, BK-4, BK-4M HEAT and OF-18 Frag-HE rounds. The 115 mm gun introduced the first successful APFSDS ammunition, albeit with a steel penetrator.

Second they are used as artillery more than assault. But who cares about those pesky details.
