One point he raised in the video (at 0:38) it that the bese armor of the T-90 (1992) had the same armor as the T-72B (1989), which has the same armor as the T-72B (1985).
Unit#036 T-72B (88-92), #077 T-72B (88-25),#494 T-72B KMT-6 (85-25), and #495 T-72B KMT-7 (88-25)
VS
Unit#049 T-90 (93-99), Unit#564 T-90 KMT-6 (93-25), and Unit#858 T-90 (93-99)
This is most definitely not the case. In fact it's armor is better then the T-72BM (1997).
Also the active protective system effectively negates the reactive armor on the turret front facing.
Additionally at 1:42 he says the original T-90 had no thermal sights, again not the case in the OOB. Also most T-80s didn't start getting thermal sights till 1992.
At 2:08 he states the T-90 used the same engine as the T-72B, again most definitely not reflected in the OOB.
ALL these points are why I brought this video up in the first place.
Isn't it nice how we Marines insure Sailors doesn't get bored
