Here's a good one on their T-72 tanks dating back to the 1970's with some of the current local upgrades made to them. Overall they seem
fairly useful against
RPG's not so good against modern
ATGW's (Or I would think, modern tank fire.). You have to admire "
soldier ingenuity" on the fly.

And note the "
honesty" statement they "
plugged" into the article of the above ref., I like
ownership of, well, anything you do in life.
A good article about Syrian
T-90S tactical usage and loses. And also it serves as a good example of why I fully read my sources before making up my "
calculus" for a piece of equipment.
I was just going to post it as is without comment, but, in hindsight, I'll just give it you straight. Note the
transitions from the
T-90A to
T-90 back to the
T-90A and this happens a couple of more times, until in the last set of paragraphs the author from this "
think tank" finally must have "
engaged" his brain, to report the
correct tank which of course is the
T-90S.

This is why I love OOB work so much
, though I've seen this type of thing before, thankfully with as much data that's "
come across my desk" over the years, it's a small percentage overall.
Thank God!
Great shower (Better then even on the "
boat"!) followed by a wonderful dinner! I'm a lucky guy!
