Modelling armour in Ukraine crisis

Little kid: Kids often have a fine tuned sense for injustice.
Many animals have it too. I saw some video where two apes (or was it monkeys)
were given treats as rewards for some action. One was given more treats than the other
and immediately shared his “surplus” with the other (equal job, equal pay)

Interesting figures.

None of the above posts has anything to do with modelling, so kindly, respectfully take this to the “Off Topic Section”

@Frenchy start posting today’s Ukrainian/Russian Armour please!

BMP-3’s are most welcome :slight_smile:

Judging by the camo scheme, I guess it’s a Ukrainian Army one…

Is this brem-1 based on the T-72 chassis? Sorry for the dumb questions. Still out of my depth.

Yes :wink:

I’m in expert (in my own mind). LOL
Top pic:
On left std. AK-74M - 5.45x39, on right looks like AKS-74UN w/ stock folded back but maybe/maybe not in 7.62x39 (too much curve in the 40 round mag?)

Bot Pic:
All -74 but different flavors & age. Guy knelling on far right has all the “tacticool” mods…

What was the body count at Abu Ghaib?

Now… what was the death tally on British run prison ships employed against the American colonies?
