    Yes, the T-72 is the best tank of the second half of the 20th century, created for "war", precisely for harsh and merciless exploitation.
    It was created precisely as a "tank of a special period".
    This is common knowledge.

    Yes, there have been a ton of articles lately. You think what it is, what it is for? The thought came to my mind: maybe the author just wanted to ask a topic interesting to him in order to find out our opinion with you?
