Poor Rooskies. Goes from bad to worse :- Russia's most advanced tank in service was obliterated by Ukraine just days after it was deployed, according to reports https://news.yahoo.com/russias-most-advanced-tank-obliterated-205429121.html
This thread was started 2 months ago, OP spoke about the demolition of the Russian economy. Here we are, two months later, and the Russian war machine keeps getting bigger and more intense. Sanctions are not doing shit. Only Putin's death will stop the war. That much is clear.
I guess the turret not being in the next field is an improvement for them. Their new T-14 may fare better but I doubt the drivers are happy seeing that?
Its giving Zelinskyy, a professional comedian, time to write the funniest joke in the world and victory is assured (though he will die laughing)
You're kidding, right? They are running out of missiles, which they could only build at the rate of (I am serious) 60 a quarter *before* the sanctions. All missile production and tank production has stopped. And yes, their economy is in tatters.
T-14 cannot be built anymore. The tank factory has stopped production and repairs because of the sanctions. I think they had less than 10 built before the sanctions. Maybe they will have a couple for the parade.
So between the fall of the Soviet Union in 1990 and the war in Ukraine in 2022, Russia has not built one single tank. If that is your view, well, fascinating.
