I don't understand what the possible mission of these RussIan tanks could have been. They just seem to drive around like they're lost. Tanks are for breakthroughs and encirclements, not for touring the city without fuel or infantry support.Another major blunder they've repeatedly committed is throwing armor into urban areas

Turns out Russia is Ukraines largest arms supplier…
Ukraine captured a batch of Russia's missiles and fired them back at its troops, report says
Ukrainian forces have been documented capturing Russian vehicles and weapons, which can then be deployed back against the invading forces.www.yahoo.com
I saw that one too. Made me laugh. Karma's a bitch.Turns out Russia is Ukraines largest arms supplier…

I know, right? I was watching a vid last night of a T-72 repeatedly poking its nose out into an intersection and shooting at what seemed to be the same target, then reversing for cover (presumably while reloading). Not a foot soldier to be seen, and not even another tank in the video-frame. Playing cat-and-mouse in a city with a tank strikes me as pretty dumb without supporting elements ... and this guy had none.
I'll see if I can dig up the video in a little bit.
Here:
I love the bit where the guy with the camera turns it on himself and grins. One presumes he's a Ukrainian soldier.
Might be Russian. I can't hear it well enough to tell if he's speaking Russian or Ukranian.I love the bit where the guy with the camera turns it on himself and grins. One presumes he's a Ukrainian soldier.

Perhaps Dimlee could weigh in.
Considering how the Ukraine Farm Tractor Battalion is capturing armor left and right, yes...there is most certainly a lack of infantry support.

Urban camouflageI still have questions about the clothes on the turret...

That's to hide the pee from thinking about the Russia they will return to.One of the cosmonauts said the suits were yellow because the had a lot of yellow spacesuit material left. They had to use it up.
That's what the translation said.
Pillage? The tank commander's wife gave him a shopping list before the invasion? Trying to make the tank look like a babooshka? Took a detour through a shopping mall?
Who knows????
