Made "leopard": the Armed Forces are fighting on the T-62 tank, which is over half a century (video)

During the counter-offensive in the Kherson region, the T-62 tank and a large number of ammunition were received. Finding experts on old equipment with the inscription Leopard 2 was not easy. The T-62 tank, which was captured during a counter-offensive in the Kherson region, is now used against Russian invaders.

It was not easy for tankers to find specialists who were able to manage such old equipment. On the tank tower made the inscription "Leopard 2". "After the victory, it will become a museum exhibit," the post reads. According to Alexander Kovalenko, a military-political observer of the Information Resistance Group in the Telegram, it may be less than expected to fight tanks in Russia.

The possibilities of recovery from the enemy are very low, so the T-62 and other technique of production of the 50's and 60's of the XX century can be sent to the front. In 2022, Russia began to remove the T-62 from storage bases. The amount of this Soviet equipment that was sent to the front is unknown. Ukrainian defenders were already capturing T-62 and other production techniques of the 50's and 60's of the XX century.

Focus reported that the Armed Forces in November 2022 seized the Russian T-62 tank of 1967. The technique did not pass any modernization except the installation on the tower "Mangala". According to the design, such lattice should protect armored vehicles from modern anti -tank attacks. On March 23, British intelligence reported that Russia is actively throwing T-62 to restore losses.

According to the department, Russian armored personnel carriers of the BTR-50, which were first armed in 1954, were also first identified in Ukraine. According to analysts from the United Kingdom, it indicates a catastrophic situation with equipment in the army of the Russian Federation. In Russia, on March 27, a new echelon of "modernized" T-62m was recorded. The military-political observer Alexander Kovalenko criticized the actions of the invaders.
