John Kettler Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Here's what a tank that hasn't had proper maintenance for a long time looks like. Frankly, I find the shape the cannon's muzzle in to be shocking, but the overall appearance of the tank shows it's had a harsh life and lots of exposure to the weather, almost certainly amid a sea of other rusting Cold War relics. The crew has made an effort where possible, but it's easier to paint slogans than it is to deal with the results of prolonged exposed outdoor storage and being in the field. As a bonus, you get to see a defensive position for the tank and some crew related detritus, too. The kitten is apparently's the crew's pet, according to what turned up in image search, which says this is a Ukrainian tank. Shall leave the tank ID to others.

Erwin Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Ah. I assumed that the kitten was the Ukrainian tank's innovative night vision optics. I had a kitten like that "Russian Blue?" - made it almost to 20 years old. Ahhh... Good times... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky_Strike Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Not so sure it’s Ukrainian, isn’t that a Russian Blue? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
