Stopping their supplies is the quickest way to end this war, Ukraine never had a chance against Russia and NATO started the war with a retarded president at the White House.
In Iraq the Bradley was responsible for destroying more enemy tanks than the allied tanks did. As well as the two TOW in the launcher the Bradley has extra TOW missiles inside the vehicle and the launcher can be reloaded through a hatch behind the launcher.
There's a couple of things wrong with this video. I watched this last night and come back to it this morning, so this is from memory. - The title of the video. While Bradleys typically go into battle with a group (squad) of infantry inside of them and they do typically drop them off when entering the battle, they don't f off afterwards, so they're not a taxi. A Bradley is an IFV (infantry fighting vehicle) which means it stays and provides fire support for the infantry squad it has dropped off. When you say battlefield taxi you're thinking of an APC which basically is the predecessor of an IFV and does the same as described above except it f's off after dropping off its infantry squad thus making it behave like a taxi. - The way the host pronounces Abrams - The way the host pronounces TOW (he spells it out it's pronounced as a word, just like the verb. Has the host seriously never heard somone pronounce these words before?) - The suggestion that the T-34 is the "world's greatest tank" (WW2 examples certainly aren't, watch Lazerpig's video on it). - The suggestion that Soviet tank design/production fell off after the T-34, while the Soviet's were the first to make a tank with composite armor (T-64's turret) which kickstarted the concept of MBTs. - Seriously the Soviet's had loads of firsts including IFV's with the BMP. - The suggestion that Russian tank troops wouldn't know how to shoot the main gun. As mentioned at the start this is not an exhaustive list, this is from memory from watching this video yesterday. I've been kinda ragging on the guest speaker so I'll point out one thing I think he's spot on about and deserve's some props for: Coordination in battle is hard, so the Bradley's succesfully pulling it off is a significant feat and one of Russia's serious deficits.
On paper, it be deadly for a Bradley to stick around with enemy tanks in the area. A 120 mm gun would vaporize it. There is another version of the Bradley and I forgot what it is for. The T34 was the best all around medium tank for the condition. with slopped armor and easy to maintain unlike the German tanks. I am not surprised the Russians skimmed on training their crew. This war is a great opportunity to use up all the old TOWs before the end of their shelf life. We need something fire and forget which TOW is not. Russian engineers have different design philosophy than western designers, they have less money to work with and they do not take creature comfort as seriously. But when there is a need for it or if they feel like it, their engineering are world class. They are also behind in electronics and automation.
@@tonylam9548 T34 and T-34 are two different tanks and not it wasn't the best, not even close. Wanna talk about ease of maintenance? Take a look at Shermans. They were literally the atlantic ocean away from their factories, so they had to be easily serviceable. The Soviet union was a force to be reckoned with, Russia is not.
@@saybrowt Distance from manufacturing factories been no longer a factor for decades. Big jets and machines are almost always in service half a world away. But with trained technicians and spare parts, it matter little. But if you studied an old WW2 German tracked system , you discovered it will be more difficult to repair and service, no matter where in the world compare with the T34 and Sherman. The Germans had the lesson forced down their throats and you noticed when they design tracks again, such as the leopards, they use a different system.
@@daninquin2732 In warthunder often the commander is sitting behind the optics in the turret. So yes even in warthunder hitting the optics has an effect. For the tiger tank the optics aka the commanders hatch is always the best spot to hit. I also recall that your night vision in warthunder doesnt work anymore once your optics are hit.
It was because a soldier which is a War Thunder user , learned the weakness of T-90(The turret) , through leaking classified information from War Thunder or just wanted to aim on the turret if it's the weakness
Great videos! Long live Ukraine. Shame on Congressional Republicans for holding up military aid! As a veteran I can say that Ukraine is saving the lives of tens of thousands of US and Western military personnel!
@@alchah_247 It may be so, but did you, as a russian, have any right to point your finger on somebody other than yourself? Have you ever challenged what you hear in your medias, or are you sure your elites wont lie to you (😂)?
Shame on the delusional leftist democrats whose policies have pushed inflation through the roof and made everyday items so expensive that middle class people are struggling like hell. I feel for the people of Ukraine, but this is not our fight. Let Europe deal with its own problems for once.
In reality, the Bradley is waaaaaay more than a battle taxi. What surprised me is that they took down the T-90 without even using their TOW missiles. They must have been very well trained.
Apparently the psychological effect of getting hit is a factor. You might not get penetrated, but the fear of it is paralysing... and to the win of the Ukrainians.
You have to be sitting still when you fire a TOW. Also, its like a sniper where you are monitoring a kill zone hopefully near maximum range and when you do fire the gunner must keep the cross hairs on the target until impact, which depending on the range can take up to 22-25 seconds. It's not meant to shoot on the move.
@@mrgrinch837how did you calculate such long flight time? At 3750 meters it should be under 15 seconds. Old TC from the ITV, are the newer missiles slower? Felt like forever and a day, but that was because you shouldn't move with the turret up in an ITV. SHOULDNT VS CAN'T. Using the manual crank to lower turret was always a joy... I never fired a TOW from a Bradley, the only advantage of the ITV was reload time, but it is unrealistic to think any veh would get off more than 2 TOW Missiles. Great for long long standoff. Hulldown only. But the backblast was just a big invitation for incoming projectiles. The crews here were wise to run and gun and target the optics, if they can't see they can't hit. The T-90 popped smoke wisely, knowing most teams are leap frogging. Even nicer they had drones to finish off the T-90. So they didn't have to expose an IFV to use a TOW.
I expect that they didn’t have TOWs. Maybe they had fired them already. Maybe a logistical failure blocked them. Maybe the US Congress hadn’t yet voted to send enough ammo.
Experience of soldiers is something i feel is always lost in raports in most articles , and glad that Expert/ex tanker mentions it , poorly trained troops have very low battlefield value.
I agree experience plays a major role but manufacturing military equipment plays a bigger role look how fast the United States of America produced weapons and military hardware especially ships look up how many ships they made in WW2 it’s amazing. Today they couldn’t produce nowhere near that amount. #Bringmanufacturingbackhome
There are about 3,000 Bradleys still in long term storage. Meanwhile, it's replacement has been approved and pre-production prototypes go into testing next year.
The T-34 was a successful tank of WW2, but by its end, the British Centurion was entering service, and was the best tank of the post -War era. It was used by the IDF to destroy a huge invasion by Syria in the 1973 Arab-Israeli war
After the Battle of Kursk, the T-34 already showed its deficiencies because it wasn't effective against German heavy armor, especially at long range. The Soviets went to design the T-44 as a result, which later turned into the T-54/T-55 which was much more revolutionary. However, the biggest leap forward was the T-64. The western obsession with the T-34 is nonsensical.
This video shows the thing that is often forgotten when talking about wapons: The quality of the communikations, cameras, fire control, handling etc. Of cause the specs of the T90M are superior. But for your big canon to count, you have to be able to hit your target. And this requires percision systems. So you need modern cameras, computers, control motors to move your gun etc. The systems all have to work hand in hand, and make it as easy as possible to score a hit. And when you see videos from inside russion tanks, you can see how basic they are.
@MinhBui-vr2oz well I see where the joke is going it still don't make sense cuz they have lost over 3k tanks 😂 so soon they will be hooking 125mm guns to trucks 😂
They're not strictly speaking wrong to say that. ERA can alter the trajectory of kinetic penetrators, blunt the tip, and/or break the penetrator along its length. Analogue testing conducted shows the effectiveness of ERA against kinetic penetrators.
@@stephenfowler4115 That's not correct. It's been a nonsense claim since the 80s. Go to page 25 of the PDF. Even physically that makes no sense because when the sandwiched explosives detonates the plates will bend, the actual line of sight thickness the penetrator needs to go through is increased. csbaonline.org/uploads/documents/CSBA_TheRoadAhead_FullSize.pdf
I wonder if the drone was sending overhead footage to the Bradley which meant it could see the T90 but the T90 couldn't see the Bradley so it could manoeuvre into position.
@@BluegillGregthe Bradley had the T90 Insight the whole time, there was no need to get information from drone Cruise they could see what was going on right in front of them. Now the Drone Cruise did come in and take. Now the Drone did come in and take at the very end. But they weren't really a part of the Bradley fight
Probably true, but I imagine it would be calling down corrections rather than aim points. You'd need some very accurate and tough sensors and electronics and some excellent software to be able to call down shot angles and ranges. Still much better than most alternatives.
I was very lucky to be an engineer who helped develop subsystems for the original Challenger 2. Not sure if that variant is what was sent to Ukraine. CII proven in Iraq as well. Great kit! Thanks for serving!
Just a point of correction - the Bradly IFV does not have Anti-Tank Rockets - rockets are unguided. They TOW Millies (pronounced toe) are wire guided missiles.
Very interesting episode. Thanks so much for passing on your studies. It would be an interesting subject to see some highlights of the training of a tank commander and some of the tactics used by combined forces working together. It also would be fascinating to get a big overview of drones worldwide. It looks very much like they will be playing a major part in warfare from now on. The very small and quiet drones are emerging, and it would be wonderful to see some data on them, especially how to locate and destroy them, or at least explore the ways to jam the signals that control them.
The missiles were a guard against surprises and give the APC a chance to survive if it ran into tanks, APCs have no business fighting tanks. If you ran into tanks, and you already used up the missiles, you better hope the infantry with you have some LAWs, or you can call up your Hellfire/TOW/Javelin dealer fast while you escape at top speed. Shooting out the sensors will work, (for any tanks) but it takes time and allow the tank to take a couple of shots at you.
I always had the opinion that a tank that keeps the crew alive is superiour because the crew gets kind of a chance to lear a thing or two - seems like russia never heard of that...
@0:30 - Answer is simple, as this was covered 1 year ago or something, that the Bradley gunner with anti-infantry shells that are HE (High explosive), that are not sufficient enough against the tank, damaged some component on that T-90, it blinded it and then did something to the turret ring that it malfunctioned, since in the video it was seen that the tank's gun turret was rotating, normally it shouldn't rotate randomly like that, a person wouldn't do it.
Tanks have done well in deserts recently. In Europe they have to use main roads for 6 months of the year to avoid getting bogged down. With rain comes rivers and bridges. The bridges are often unable to take the weight of a MBT. An Infantry Fighting Vehicle seems to be a better bet in a European winter.
No. That was the BT-2. The BT-2 was an American design and sold to the Soviets. The T-34 was thought up by the Russians themselves. Do a little research before posting.

There were no sovereign Ukraine neither sovereign Russia at that moment. There was USSR that included 15 soviet republics (like Ukrainian SSR, RFSSR, Kazakh SSR etc.)
@@чиабатта-р9с yes yes, but the point still stands. The T-34, and earlier tanks like the BT series, were designed and built in Kharkiv, in the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, by a company that still exists today as a Ukrainian state company.

They jammed and he had to switch the HE rounds that won't go through the armor. He focused his attack on the external stuff that was outside the hull and blinded the Russians. One of the rounds started a fire in something.
DU will go through parts of some Russian armor. The turret armor of the T-90M, if made to spec (refer to the corruption mentioned in the vid), can fend off the DU rounds. However, since Russia is actually using them, the T-64 and T-55 would be sliced up by it.
@@hankhaney3785 LOL, if whoever owns or manages the steel and tank production facilties is pocketing $ and cheaping out on the production quality, corruption absolutely affects the QUALITY of the armor. My original comment said nothing about "thickness". Go back to playing world of tanks, or whatever, where what the spec sheet says is exactly what you get. The real world, especially with the endemic corruption of the Russian system, is different.
@@Texas240 LOL.....those tanks are made from "stamped steel" for the most part. So your theory is "incorrect"....but they do engage in corruption to pocket more cash, just like our democrats do, right Joe Biden ! lol
Its not a Taxi, and the Russian tank was being tracked by drones, and had no support. I am sure they were focused on the drones, and by the time they saw the Bradley they were shooting blind. T-90's are great tanks if they have the trained crew, proper protective armor and support they need. If you would have put an M1 or a Centurion in the same situation of taking fire from both drones, and a couple of IFV's with an inexperienced tank crew, you would probably end up with a blown tank. I have seen videos of successful Russian tank operations where they used t-72s behind a t-62 turtle tank, the difference is that they were supported by infantry, artillery, and helicopters. It was not the tank this time it was the tactics.
The DPRK and Russia border each other. North Korean forces will cross that border and take a train through Russia to the deployment area. So, nope, there won't be any interception en route -- not unless the US is inclined to target rail inside Russia; the chance of that is extremely close to zero.
Almost impossible unfortunately, but I really doubt NK will send much in terms of troops. The main issue should we the entire west stopping all tech flowing to this new alliance of China, Iran, Russia, NK, etc. We need to stop helping them in any and all ways.
Weird how a tank commander haven't heard of anti-tank minefields and mine-plows and the reason why they all follow each other? You go in the tracks of the vehicle in front of you until it goes boom, then you go until you go boom and so on and so forth until all the ruskie armor is gone.
Crimea is Ukraine 🇺🇦 Luhansk is Ukraine 🇺🇦 Donetsk is Ukraine 🇺🇦 Zaporizhia is Ukraine 🇺🇦 Kherson is Ukraine 🇺🇦 The 1991 borders MUST be returned. International law is not negotiable. Russian propagandists are perfectly aware of the targets in Crimea.
Is he really an expert? He made all of this up in a few videos. He says the Bradley can destroy the t90 very easily, but I think this is because the Bradley crew is brave and the t90 itself is a tank that works better than the Abrams or Challenger on the battlefield.

Your source?? I'm calling this BS unless you can show me something reliable. Mikhail Ilyich Koshkin is the designer of the T34 by any source I've ever seen..
Just to clear up a bit of misperception about why they didn't fire the TOW. I fired TOWs from Humvees, jeeps, and eventually cobra attack helicopters. The ground Vehicles you must be sitting still with the engine off so the vibration doesn't complicate the missile guidance system to track the missile. You then have to line up your target, hopefully at near maximum range. It's not something that you can even come close to shooting on the move, unless of course you're in a combat helicopter. The tow missile is very much like a sniper weapon, It's made to monitor kill zones. Waiting for something to stroll into your kill zone and then you zap it, it's a great device but it doesn't shoot while you're moving along a bumpy roadway., additionally for maximum range shots it will take up to 22 to 25 seconds that you have to hold the cross on the target for missile impact. If they sat still in order to get the TOW missile on the wire they would have been dead.

Stopping their supplies is the quickest way to end this war, Ukraine never had a chance against Russia and NATO started the war with a retarded president at the White House.
In Iraq the Bradley was responsible for destroying more enemy tanks than the allied tanks did. As well as the two TOW in the launcher the Bradley has extra TOW missiles inside the vehicle and the launcher can be reloaded through a hatch behind the launcher.
There's a couple of things wrong with this video. I watched this last night and come back to it this morning, so this is from memory.
- The title of the video. While Bradleys typically go into battle with a group (squad) of infantry inside of them and they do typically drop them off when entering the battle, they don't f off afterwards, so they're not a taxi. A Bradley is an IFV (infantry fighting vehicle) which means it stays and provides fire support for the infantry squad it has dropped off. When you say battlefield taxi you're thinking of an APC which basically is the predecessor of an IFV and does the same as described above except it f's off after dropping off its infantry squad thus making it behave like a taxi.
- The way the host pronounces Abrams
- The way the host pronounces TOW (he spells it out it's pronounced as a word, just like the verb. Has the host seriously never heard somone pronounce these words before?)
- The suggestion that the T-34 is the "world's greatest tank" (WW2 examples certainly aren't, watch Lazerpig's video on it).
- The suggestion that Soviet tank design/production fell off after the T-34, while the Soviet's were the first to make a tank with composite armor (T-64's turret) which kickstarted the concept of MBTs.
- Seriously the Soviet's had loads of firsts including IFV's with the BMP.
- The suggestion that Russian tank troops wouldn't know how to shoot the main gun.
As mentioned at the start this is not an exhaustive list, this is from memory from watching this video yesterday.
I've been kinda ragging on the guest speaker so I'll point out one thing I think he's spot on about and deserve's some props for: Coordination in battle is hard, so the Bradley's succesfully pulling it off is a significant feat and one of Russia's serious deficits.
On paper, it be deadly for a Bradley to stick around with enemy tanks in the area. A 120 mm gun would vaporize it. There is another version of the Bradley and I forgot what it is for. The T34 was the best all around medium tank for the condition. with slopped armor and easy to maintain unlike the German tanks. I am not surprised the Russians skimmed on training their crew. This war is a great opportunity to use up all the old TOWs before the end of their shelf life. We need something fire and forget which TOW is not. Russian engineers have different design philosophy than western designers, they have less money to work with and they do not take creature comfort as seriously. But when there is a need for it or if they feel like it, their engineering are world class. They are also behind in electronics and automation.
@@tonylam9548 T34 and T-34 are two different tanks and not it wasn't the best, not even close. Wanna talk about ease of maintenance? Take a look at Shermans. They were literally the atlantic ocean away from their factories, so they had to be easily serviceable. The Soviet union was a force to be reckoned with, Russia is not.
Spot on...
@@saybrowt Distance from manufacturing factories been no longer a factor for decades. Big jets and machines are almost always in service half a world away. But with trained technicians and spare parts, it matter little. But if you studied an old WW2 German tracked system , you discovered it will be more difficult to repair and service, no matter where in the world compare with the T34 and Sherman. The Germans had the lesson forced down their throats and you noticed when they design tracks again, such as the leopards, they use a different system.

For the tiger tank the optics aka the commanders hatch is always the best spot to hit. I also recall that your night vision in warthunder doesnt work anymore once your optics are hit.
It was because a soldier which is a War Thunder user , learned the weakness of T-90(The turret) , through leaking classified information from War Thunder or just wanted to aim on the turret if it's the weakness

In reality, the Bradley is waaaaaay more than a battle taxi. What surprised me is that they took down the T-90 without even using their TOW missiles. They must have been very well trained.
Apparently the psychological effect of getting hit is a factor. You might not get penetrated, but the fear of it is paralysing... and to the win of the Ukrainians.
You have to be sitting still when you fire a TOW. Also, its like a sniper where you are monitoring a kill zone hopefully near maximum range and when you do fire the gunner must keep the cross hairs on the target until impact, which depending on the range can take up to 22-25 seconds. It's not meant to shoot on the move.
@@mrgrinch837 Thanks. That's very interesting and useful information. 👍
@@mrgrinch837how did you calculate such long flight time? At 3750 meters it should be under 15 seconds. Old TC from the ITV, are the newer missiles slower?
Felt like forever and a day, but that was because you shouldn't move with the turret up in an ITV. SHOULDNT VS CAN'T. Using the manual crank to lower turret was always a joy... I never fired a TOW from a Bradley, the only advantage of the ITV was reload time, but it is unrealistic to think any veh would get off more than 2 TOW Missiles. Great for long long standoff. Hulldown only. But the backblast was just a big invitation for incoming projectiles.
The crews here were wise to run and gun and target the optics, if they can't see they can't hit.
The T-90 popped smoke wisely, knowing most teams are leap frogging. Even nicer they had drones to finish off the T-90. So they didn't have to expose an IFV to use a TOW.
I expect that they didn’t have TOWs. Maybe they had fired them already. Maybe a logistical failure blocked them. Maybe the US Congress hadn’t yet voted to send enough ammo.

"The T34 was the hight of Russian tank design"
What a ridiculous statement, also the T34 was a prewar design used against the Japanese.
There are about 3,000 Bradleys still in long term storage. Meanwhile, it's replacement has been approved and pre-production prototypes go into testing next year.
The T-34 was a successful tank of WW2, but by its end, the British Centurion was entering service, and was the best tank of the post -War era. It was used by the IDF to destroy a huge invasion by Syria in the 1973 Arab-Israeli war
After the Battle of Kursk, the T-34 already showed its deficiencies because it wasn't effective against German heavy armor, especially at long range. The Soviets went to design the T-44 as a result, which later turned into the T-54/T-55 which was much more revolutionary. However, the biggest leap forward was the T-64. The western obsession with the T-34 is nonsensical.
Seems to be MVP of ground armor at the moment. Havent seen much CV90, wonder how does that thing compare
I've read Sweden didn't want footage of them posted, but who knows.
those 17 Bradleys lost to friendly fire is ridiculous
Bradleys having a Party taxi ;-)
Uber-machina
This video shows the thing that is often forgotten when talking about wapons:
The quality of the communikations, cameras, fire control, handling etc.
Of cause the specs of the T90M are superior. But for your big canon to count, you have to be able to hit your target. And this requires percision systems. So you need modern cameras, computers, control motors to move your gun etc.
The systems all have to work hand in hand, and make it as easy as possible to score a hit.
And when you see videos from inside russion tanks, you can see how basic they are.
It seems like Putin's biggest screw up, is caring far less about the crews, than the equipment.
Because he has 20 million men and only has 10 thousand tanks .😂
@MinhBui-vr2oz well I see where the joke is going it still don't make sense cuz they have lost over 3k tanks 😂 so soon they will be hooking 125mm guns to trucks 😂

No the active armor is not designed to deflect shells. Its designed to interuppt the jet from shaped charge projectiles.
They're not strictly speaking wrong to say that. ERA can alter the trajectory of kinetic penetrators, blunt the tip, and/or break the penetrator along its length. Analogue testing conducted shows the effectiveness of ERA against kinetic penetrators.
They're also designed to deflect APFSDS darts
@@pax6833 explosive armor is not effective against solid shot. Tungsten and DU darts penetrate it easily.
@@stephenfowler4115 That's not correct. It's been a nonsense claim since the 80s. Go to page 25 of the PDF. Even physically that makes no sense because when the sandwiched explosives detonates the plates will bend, the actual line of sight thickness the penetrator needs to go through is increased.

I wonder if the drone was sending overhead footage to the Bradley which meant it could see the T90 but the T90 couldn't see the Bradley so it could manoeuvre into position.
yes, Ukrainian situational awareness and communication between different units much better.
And radio communication from the drone team?
@@BluegillGregthe Bradley had the T90 Insight the whole time, there was no need to get information from drone Cruise they could see what was going on right in front of them. Now the Drone Cruise did come in and take. Now the Drone did come in and take at the very end. But they weren't really a part of the Bradley fight
I suspect that the drone was passing situational awareness to the Bradleys. I wish I had that kind of SA when I was a Forward Observer. Game Changing.
Probably true, but I imagine it would be calling down corrections rather than aim points. You'd need some very accurate and tough sensors and electronics and some excellent software to be able to call down shot angles and ranges. Still much better than most alternatives.
great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent report. The best one on the war, as far as tanks are concerned. Ukraine is going to win this war.

Mines are the big issue. That’s one of the reasons they are following in a column.
I was very lucky to be an engineer who helped develop subsystems for the original Challenger 2. Not sure if that variant is what was sent to Ukraine. CII proven in Iraq as well. Great kit! Thanks for serving!
Just a point of correction - the Bradly IFV does not have Anti-Tank Rockets - rockets are unguided.
They TOW Millies (pronounced toe) are wire guided missiles.
Very interesting episode. Thanks so much for passing on your studies. It would be an interesting subject to see some highlights of the training of a tank commander and some of the tactics used by combined forces working together.
It also would be fascinating to get a big overview of drones worldwide. It looks very much like they will be playing a major part in warfare from now on. The very small and quiet drones are emerging, and it would be wonderful to see some data on them, especially how to locate and destroy them, or at least explore the ways to jam the signals that control them.
ITS THE TRAINING, VERY IMPORTANT *
Excellent presentation, thanks
Slava ukrainy 🇺🇦
Excellent analysis
That little box on the side of a Bradley, holds tank killing toe missiles. Bradleys were made to hold their own against tanks
The missiles were a guard against surprises and give the APC a chance to survive if it ran into tanks, APCs have no business fighting tanks. If you ran into tanks, and you already used up the missiles, you better hope the infantry with you have some LAWs, or you can call up your Hellfire/TOW/Javelin dealer fast while you escape at top speed. Shooting out the sensors will work, (for any tanks) but it takes time and allow the tank to take a couple of shots at you.

I always had the opinion that a tank that keeps the crew alive is superiour because the crew gets kind of a chance to lear a thing or two - seems like russia never heard of that...
Экипаж покинул танк
@0:30 - Answer is simple, as this was covered 1 year ago or something, that the Bradley gunner with anti-infantry shells that are HE (High explosive), that are not sufficient enough against the tank, damaged some component on that T-90, it blinded it and then did something to the turret ring that it malfunctioned, since in the video it was seen that the tank's gun turret was rotating, normally it shouldn't rotate randomly like that, a person wouldn't do it.

What happened? The Ukrainian crew operating the Bradley played video games and so knew just where to hit the T-90.
Great report. Outstanding expert guest.
excellent commentary.
Tanks have done well in deserts recently. In Europe they have to use main roads for 6 months of the year to avoid getting bogged down. With rain comes rivers and bridges. The bridges are often unable to take the weight of a MBT. An Infantry Fighting Vehicle seems to be a better bet in a European winter.
Very informative thank you
Advidka right.... Ok guess who won that battler.
It's not the equipment, it's how well the soldier is trained
To be fair, the Bradley didn't destroy it. It disabled it. Very well I might add, gunner hit a lot of vital components 😂
Disabled (unable to complete it's mission) = WIN. The drone was just to keep the tank from being recovered and used again. Removed from inventory.

Have to remind people that the T34 was an American design from the Christie model 😅 so they didn't even think of that themselves 😂

DU will go through parts of some Russian armor. The turret armor of the T-90M, if made to spec (refer to the corruption mentioned in the vid), can fend off the DU rounds. However, since Russia is actually using them, the T-64 and T-55 would be sliced up by it.

Its not a Taxi, and the Russian tank was being tracked by drones, and had no support. I am sure they were focused on the drones, and by the time they saw the Bradley they were shooting blind. T-90's are great tanks if they have the trained crew, proper protective armor and support they need. If you would have put an M1 or a Centurion in the same situation of taking fire from both drones, and a couple of IFV's with an inexperienced tank crew, you would probably end up with a blown tank. I have seen videos of successful Russian tank operations where they used t-72s behind a t-62 turtle tank, the difference is that they were supported by infantry, artillery, and helicopters. It was not the tank this time it was the tactics.
Summing up Ukraine's strategy in two words, Clever Girl.
Can the US and Nato intercept the North Koreans deployment while in route to Russia? Can they establish a blockage to stop the deployment?
The DPRK and Russia border each other. North Korean forces will cross that border and take a train through Russia to the deployment area. So, nope, there won't be any interception en route -- not unless the US is inclined to target rail inside Russia; the chance of that is extremely close to zero.
Almost impossible unfortunately, but I really doubt NK will send much in terms of troops. The main issue should we the entire west stopping all tech flowing to this new alliance of China, Iran, Russia, NK, etc. We need to stop helping them in any and all ways.
@TalorcMacAllan-ig4rm Why would they, the reports of DPRK troops being sent to Ukraine is false.
Japan ran into the same problem in a war of attrition; planes could be built quickly, but pilots could not be trained fast enough.
I got more info from the Ukrainian tanker than the “expert.” He added zero to the convo.
Weird how a tank commander haven't heard of anti-tank minefields and mine-plows and the reason why they all follow each other? You go in the tracks of the vehicle in front of you until it goes boom, then you go until you go boom and so on and so forth until all the ruskie armor is gone.

Just to clear up a bit of misperception about why they didn't fire the TOW. I fired TOWs from Humvees, jeeps, and eventually cobra attack helicopters. The ground Vehicles you must be sitting still with the engine off so the vibration doesn't complicate the missile guidance system to track the missile. You then have to line up your target, hopefully at near maximum range. It's not something that you can even come close to shooting on the move, unless of course you're in a combat helicopter. The tow missile is very much like a sniper weapon, It's made to monitor kill zones. Waiting for something to stroll into your kill zone and then you zap it, it's a great device but it doesn't shoot while you're moving along a bumpy roadway., additionally for maximum range shots it will take up to 22 to 25 seconds that you have to hold the cross on the target for missile impact. If they sat still in order to get the TOW missile on the wire they would have been dead.
Awesome video ❤😂❤
