Rare Russian Tank Destroyed in Ukraine - Was Meant for Someone Else? - Technology Org
New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/rare-russian-tank-destroyed-in-ukraine-was-meant-for-someone-else-technology-org/
Rare Russian Tank Destroyed in Ukraine - Was Meant for Someone Else? - Technology Org
The T-90 is by any means a relatively new tank. It is a third-generation main battle tank, based on the T-72. The T-90M “Proryv” version is described as the most advanced Russian main battle tank in active service. Of course, this title would be given to the T-14 Armata, but it doesn’t seem to be coming to the battlefield any time soon. But what is the T-90S recently damaged south of Marinka?

The T-90 was meant to be a unified replacement for the mess of Soviet tanks that Russia found itself using in the 1990’s. Obviously, as you may see, Russia is still operating a bunch of T-72s, T-80s, T-64s and even older tanks. However, the T-90, based on the T-72 chassis, was meant to replace them all.
The standard T-90 entered service in 1992. It is a 46-tonne tank with a 125 mm smoothbore gun, 3 man crew, and advanced steel-composite armour with dynamic protection tiles. Definitely a step up from what the T-72 is, but still just a third-generation main battle tank.
The main event is the T-90M “Proryv”, which entered service in 2016. It is the latest, most modern active main battle tank in the Russian service. It has even more armour (does weigh around 2 tonnes more though), better sights and electronics. “M” stands for “modernised” afterall. The defenders of Ukraine destroyed a lot of T-90Ms already, but every single one of them is a triumph over the Russian defence industry.
Now a news aggregator Noelreports on Twitter posted that a rare Russian T-90S with a TMT-K mine trawl up front was damaged by a Javelin anti-tank missile south of Marinka:

The T-90S is quite a rare sight in Ukraine, because it was never meant to come here. Russia produced the T-90S exclusively for export markets. This version is much older than the T-90M. India received a batch of 42 T-90 tanks back in 2001 and they were designated T-90S to separate them from the tanks meant for Russian service. The T-90S was also exported to Algeria, Armenia, Iraq, Turkmenistan, Vietnam, Uganda and Azerbaijan.
Interestingly, the T-90S was meant to be even cheaper than the T-90. At first, these export tanks got older cast turrets. Instead of the IR dazzlers, meant to fool IR-seeking ammunition, the T-90S got more of the Kontakt-5 reactive armour tiles. Whenever Russia accepted the T-90S into its own service, they were designated the T-90A.
Fielding the T-90S doesn’t mean much. It doesn’t mean that Russia is running out of main battle tanks. Just that they are throwing everything and the defenders of Ukraine get to destroy even a bit more rare machines like this. Also, in regards to exporting the T-90S, it will be interesting to see how the war in Ukraine will affect Russia’s presence in the global arms markets.

There has been major developments in the region in the past few days that indicates regional war is imminent. Again the tweets and articles will be in chronological order.
American war ships are in the Mediterranean and Red Seas. Russia responded to that by sending planes to the Black Sea and China by sending warships to Kuwait.
Tumblr media
We got our usual back and forth on the ground operation in Gaza
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The American media is not really reporting these recent attacks on their military bases. In fact, the military is downplaying the strength of the responses by Yemeni and Syrian groups to the Gaza genocide. This is either because they want to avoid regional war or because they want to be better prepared for regional war.
This statement below seems to indicate that Iran is coming to the conclusion that open warfare is the only thing that will deter America and Israel
Tumblr media
As for Yemen, they've declared Israeli ships will be targeted if the attack on Gaza continues (you'll see later that this is no empty threat)
Tumblr media
By the way, Israel bombed an Egyptian military site along the border and claimed it was an accident. The Egyptian people have been calling for their government to intervene militarily and I don't think this will ease the pressure.
On the 22nd, Israel sent a small team to infiltrate Gaza. They didn't get very far
Tumblr media
They're also struggling against Hezbollah
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This meeting by the Russian foreign minister is a big deal as you'll see later
Tumblr media
America responds to the escalating tension by deploying 'defensive systems' all over West Asia. It risks stretching itself too thin as multiple countries are already involved in the Palestian resistance with countries like Egypt and Jordan facing internal pressure to do something about the Gazan genocide
Tumblr media
Republican Mitch McConnell has recently called Iran, Russia and China 'the new axis of evil'. It seems this is the new angle that the West has chosen because Rishi Sunak has also been comparing Hamas to Russia. This can only lead to Russia getting close to Iran which would ultimately help Hamas.
Tumblr media
The situation in Iraq continues to deteriorate as America evacuates its embassy and warns its citizens not to use the Baghdad International Airport due to attacks by Iraqi military groups.
Here we have an Israeli commander admitting that Israel is largely on the defensive against Hezbollah and their soldiers are both traumatised and disheartened. Remember, Hezbollah has yet to officially enter the war
Tumblr media
Blinken said that the US 'will be prepared' if Iran escalates its attacks which gives weight to that idea that the US is only trying to deescalate because its not ready yet.
Tumblr media
A few hours ago, American bases in Syria were targeted. It's becoming clear that a major goal in the plan to defeat Israel is removing America from the picture in the region
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The White House then blames Iran for the attack
Tumblr media
More military bases targeted in Iraq
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Meanwhile IDF is trying to infiltrate Gaza again. Reminder that a ground operation means that Hezbollah will officially enter the war and begun using its vast numbers of missiles and rockets. They're also attacking the West Bank, the resistance fighters have ambushed them
Tumblr media
Yemen follows through on the threats it made by attacking a US warship with drones
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ansarullah claims there was a direct hit but the US Navy says that all drones were intercepted (using days old pictures).
So what now? First, do not expect a ceasefire. Tbh the Palestinian resistance hasn't even called for ceasefire, just an exchange of hostages.
Tumblr media
Second of all, America itself does not believe that Israel can win this war so let's all stop acting like Palestine has already lost
Tumblr media
Thirdly, regional war is looking more and more like reality

Tank Man, what is this? Is it Russian?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Why is it in dirt pit?
Azovets IFV, Ukrainian... something, 2015, Azov regiment.
This is a home-cooked IFV that Azov was showing off back in 2016, and it got a bit of fame at the time for being wildly confusing. Despite the fact that they called it a tank, it was equipped with twin-linked autocannons and a couple of ATGMs, and was supposedly impervious to anti-tank weapons, and used cameras to see, being entirely enclosed. (Take notes, assholes)
However, in October of 2016, members of the Azov Regiment stole the vehicle from the Azov Enginnering Group's HQ, and after they blew the damn gearbox up, they obviously buried it in a hole for 8 years, until the Russians apparently dug it up.
