Something is wrong with all Russian tanks
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 жов 2024
- The Russians don't have many tanks left. Most of the tanks in Russia's storage facilities are not suitable for recovery. And their industry is not capable of producing more than 60 tanks a year.
By continuing to lose a lot of tanks on the battlefield, the Russians risk being completely without tanks this year.
A great tank power can fall behind without tanks.

Having combat ready tanks is one thing. Having experienced crews to operate the tanks is an other.
Having leadership who actually know how to properly deploy those tanks is another another. 😄
@@GazzaBoo Yes, that is also an important factor.
@@GazzaBoo The proper way to deploy a tank battalion, is in a single column, it reduces the chance of hitting anti-tank mines... 😂
As you allude to - every time you observe dear ol' St. Javelin causing yet another Russian tank to flare up and blow it's turret off, you're simultaneously observing three trained crewmen being almost instantly incinerated. So yeah, Russia's much-vaunted armoured forces are not only losing their more modern tanks on an unprecedented rate, they're also losing their most *experienced* crews in *three's*. Diabolical.

Russia can't afford to lose this war! They will throw everything they have before admit defeat!
In 2007 Portugal bought six Ka-32 helicopters from Russia for fighting forest fires and search and rescue operations. They never worked. When Russian technicians arrived, supposedly to make them airworthy, they stole valuable components and flew back to Russia. Those six helicopters have never seen service and sat in hangars. The Portuguese government is now donating them to Ukraine for military service. They obviously have the spares and engineers to get them airworthy. Apparently Russia is really pissed off. What a shame.
I highly suspect russia's nuclear arsenal is not in much better shape; and tanks are relatively simple compared to nukes to store. There was a test of russian nuclear subs launching all their missiles at once durring the USSR. The first test almost destroyed the sub. Decades later they tried again, just before the USSR collapsed. It took almost a year of special training and preparation to pull off, just the test. That was over 30 years ago; but, I guess with nukes, you only have to be wrong about few.
It’s extremely expensive to maintain nuclear weapons, the Russians can’t even keep their pathetic aircraft carrier operational……. Their nukes are probably no different.
Assumptions often hurt, especially comparing the past with today. For example, all the Western media assumed and trumpeted that in March-April 2021 the Russians would run out of missile stocks, instead the Ukrainians in the following months suffered many other attacks, even massive ones, which caused a lot of damage to their electrical. Therefore I would be more cautious with the assumptions, indeed, probably the Russians, having had 8 years to prepare stocks for war, have restored many of the 40,000 nuclear warheads of the former Soviet Union. In fact, they have been preventing American inspections of their nuclear weapons for a long time and have refused to renew the START II treaty.
Putin openly challenged NATO to enter directly the battlefield alongside the Ukrainians:
ua-cam.com/video/L70-EqdDd1A/v-deo.html
but Biden and NATO cowardly don't want to do it. Guess the two reasons. Hint: the first and easy reason is that it's cheaper to make a lot of money by selling weapons and using Ukrainians as cannon fodder.
And there lays the scariest thing, all those nukes in the same shape.
russians keep getting rid of the old soviet stuff, so this is mainly to emty ols stock
Agree 100%
Putin went to the second hand tank dealer to buy them and ask him do they come with pop up turrets
Putin bought all of the leftover tanks at the end of WW2 at a huge discount. Most of the tanks couldn't be repaired, and the ones that can are outdated. Putin prefers modern Luxury youths and mansions, not modern tanks. 😎
I'm imagining Motorized Rifle regiments attacking with T-55's and T-62's and getting absolutely annihilated. I've also read that they're sending the Armata into combat....all 14 of them and they won't last long. If the Ukrainian crews that are going to operate the Leo's/Challengers/Abrams are properly trained, the Russians stand no chance conventionally.
They will never send t-14 armata's theyre too modern and risk capture
@@hookfangtrew_yt2804 What's the point in having a tank that you're never going to use and the Russian's say is invincible. Because they say their too scared to use it, incase the Ukrainians might capture one.

Russia exaggerating it's tank numbers? What a surprise...
Russia exaggerating whatever is always a surprise...
Russia has already lost over 4000 tanks and the storage area's that housed the obsolete tanks are now mostly empty. From the before and after satellite footage shows that the tanks that were removed were in bad condition but mostly intact. The best guess on the numbers is around 2000 repairable and 3000 for part's. One thing that was noticed by the Ukrainian military is that the majority of Russian tanks had the explosive part of the explosive reactive armour missing and as that is the main part of the armour and the tanks were designed with thinner main armour because of it, this is part of the reason why Russian tanks have performed so badly. The other reasons are a lack of training in combined troop and tank combat, a very poor logistics system and a lack of communication equipment. Basically the Russian military was not prepared for any major military operation and its fighting capacity was greatly over estimated. Due to the losses that the Russian military has suffered in Ukraine Russia cannot be considered a super power, it is still a nuclear power but it now doesn't have a modern military that can defend itself.
If what you say were true, the West would have already attacked Russia as it did Iraq, Libya, Serbia and Afghanistan. Too bad, however, that in a clash between superpowers only nuclear weapons count and all the rest become toys. And the Kremlin knows this well, so I would say that Russia can defend itself very well. Putin knows this so well that he has invited NATO to go directly to the battlefield alongside the Ukrainians:
ua-cam.com/video/L70-EqdDd1A/v-deo.html
But that coward Brandon prefers to sell weapons and make a lot of money using the Ukrainians as cannon fodder. If you are truly willing to defend democracy and the freedom of a people, you must also be willing to see all the nations of the West wiped out under Russian nuclear bombs, not to only inflate your wallet with money made on the blood of Ukrainian soldiers.
Some time ago I saw a video (now deleted) where Ukrainian explosives experts disassembled ERA from captured russian tanks and discovered many of the packs were filled with sand, or clay, or just rubber blocks. Some oligarch pocketed alot of money over the lives of russian tankers for those explosive reactive armour blocks.
@@tonyv8925 the majority of Russian general's had multi million dollar yachts and mansions with gold toilets, considering that the general's don't receive any great income the money must have come from somewhere else. Most of the yachts have now been impounded or arrested.
@@swiftcee266 I would be fighting for Ukraine if I was 20 years younger, I would still be good in a defensive position but as I am not very mobile nowadays defending a fixed position is all I am capable of. From the wave attacks that Russia is doing because that is all that untrained conscripts can do it would be a question of how many Russians I could kill until my position was overrun because guns can only fire so many bullets per minute. The only real problem that the Ukrainian military faces is that will they run out of ammunition before Russia runs out of people and at the current rate the odds are with Ukraine.
@@meduza6281 first of all Russia is the aggressor and committed an unprovoked attack on Ukraine. Second no country wanted to or wants to attack Russia that is just Russian propaganda designed to create fear and hate. Third Russia under putins dictatorship has become a weak country militarily, this was created by the corruption of putins regime that has spent more money on personal yachts than the Russian military. Putin has been stealing billions from the Russian people every month and other members of his regime have been following his example. The free countries of the world will always help each other against murderous dictatorships that try to overthrow other countries. Yes Russia will lose the war against Ukraine because the Russian military has not been receiving the funding necessary for the proper training, equipment and supplies that a modern military needs. In the first 2 weeks of the invasion of Ukraine the Russian militarys logistical structure completely collapsed and columns of Russian military vehicles stretching several miles long were out of fuel and unable to move for over a month, this gave Ukraine the opportunity to destroy the majority of these vehicles without much effort. In the opening month of Russia's invasion of Ukraine the Ukrainian military destroyed the best troops and equipment that the Russian military had. Ukraine stopped the invasion and destroyed these units without any help but once they started receiving help they showed just how bad the Russian military had become and how further advanced the rest of the world is in military technologies compared to Russia. Ukraine has shown how vulnerable the Russian military is to drones and accurate artillery. Ukraine has been using more drones than any other military force in history and has shown how easy it is to adapt commercially available drones to military use and how easy and cheap it is to build drones from scratch for military purposes. Remember that the Russian propaganda ministry claims that Russia has destroyed Bradley fighting vehicles in Ukraine but Ukraine has not received any so it just provides more proof of the lies and disinformation that putins regime is spreading. There are so many buildings burning in Russia that putin must ban smoking before the entire country burns to the ground.
Russia will never learn their lesson! Rotting, non-repairable, and old technology. 💥
Through corruption many "stored tanks" were chopped by souvenir hunters and people like me collecting spares.
We would just cut a hole through a tank to get spares out. Many tanks were sold for scrap to , a going rate was 8 bottles of Vodka per tank, and as for the maintenance, let alone storage, they just got stacked up like an old car scrapyard, turrets off and filling with water.
Ever see a tank full of water freeze and pop!
As for built quality well they were no Rolls Royces!
What were most desirable items?
Radios? Fire control computer?
Optics?
Could you sell those on eBay?
Russia's tank design was "fast and cheap to build" vs "strong, robust, and well made"
You might have saved lives by rendering those tanks useless

@@richardkudrna7503 I wish Ide done a bit more spares hunting as it were, but by now the tank yards are really just full of scrap.

Most stored Russian tanks were salvaged to keep others running. No spare parts or the industry to produce them. Most heavy armor factories were in the Ukraine.

A better way of describing it would be: 'expensive.' And tanks don't do this for the same reason cars don't - the suspensions are not designed for that kind of abuse. And designing a suspension for that kind of abuse is stupid because the additional weight of the reinforced suspension means that the tank needs to carry less armor, ammunition, smaller engine, etc.

As a young boy Living in London, we were always told that the Russian tanks could get through to Paris in a few days.
And look at them now - all in "storeage"
I can't believe that they will have virtually no tanks a in few months
But it looks like it will be true.
They need to keep some in the East or China could just roll into Sibieria
That was back in the days when the tanks were stationed in the GDR. The attack plans (at least the ones which surfaced) seem to indicate a one week "blitzkrieg". One plan suggests that the troops stationed in the GDR would have reached the French border in 5 to 7 days.
It seems that even in the late 1980s the Soviet troops in the GDR had...supply issues. The NVA (the army of the GDR), while not receiving the latest military equipment from the SSSR, was however one of the strongest Warsaw Pact armies.
The combined NVA and Soviet forces in the GDR would have included about 6000 battle tanks and 9500 APCs, and also a number of tactical nuclear bombs (a 1989 NVA exercise, included 76 tactical nuclear strikes). If the Warsaw Pact had invaded West Germany, the combined forces would have been under Soviet leadership (same for a potential invasion of Poland in the early 1980s). Even without the planned tactical nuclear strikes, the number of tanks and APC would have outnumbered the material available to the Bundeswehr (West German army). It was estimated that the Warsaw Pact troops would outnumber NATO troops by factor 3.
The threat was definitely real. However, it was all "strength by numbers" (and a few tactical nukes), not by quality. Soviet leadership estimated losses of more than two millions of their own soldiers in case of an invasion. Seems the Russian leaders never really cared about their "human material"...and, apparently, the "human material" performed maintenance with the same lack of enthusiasm.
@@klausstock8020 When West Germany and East Germany became one, West Germany didn't want to take any of the East German's military equipment, because it was a pile of scrap, let us Russian's give East Germany these rust buckets of tanks, just to make Nato believe that the Warsaw pack is a military power.

You nailed it with the rife corruption - but don't be concerned about China; their system is even more corrupt, and chances are they would fair even worse in a conventional war due to missing pieces and inferior equipment, and non-existent logistical supply ability.
I had the same thoughts.
you nailed too.
They don't even have drunk Russians in their military, just toy soldiers only trained at running tanks over students.
There is no one willing or capable of stopping China from invading east Russia. They will win. Don't forget that USSR equipment was pretty good at the area it was produced. Not strange 30/40/50 years later it is outdated. China has none of those issues yet.
If you think the Russians were a joke, just you wait and see the Peoples Liberation Army in action. The PLA can only do one thing and that is to keep the CCP in power, Vietnam back in the late 1970's proved that.
Generally those countries that brag about something aren't that good at that thing...Russia brags about EVERYTHING.

The world has moved a long way since the 80's. The accepted wisdom at the height of the Cold War, was NATO in Europe could only sustain three days of assault by Soviet armour, before have to make a choice between capitulation or tactical battlefield nukes.
Today, the Ukrainian farming industry appears to have more Russian tanks than the Russian armoured divisions.
Not necessarily more...Ukranians are way better in utilising what they have..

You should reference Covert Cabal (YT). Eearly last year they did a comprehensive survey of Russian tank storage sites. They counted 6,000 - not 10,000. Of which less than half would be usable. They later did an estimate of tanks in active service and came up with a best estimate of 2,800.
So we are talking about 5,800 Rusdian tanks pre-war. Almost 3,500 are now gone. Leaving 2,300 and the current attrition is 8 per day.
Coming offensives plus modern tanks and tank killers will accelerate this atttition. Plus the effects start kicking in long before Russia gets to zero. We're talking about one-sided battles with modern armour against Russian conscripted infantry. The end will come fast.
they make about 20 a month too. For now.

"If Russia didn't have it's nukes, NATO could take over Russia easily." Boy is that ever wrong.
During the cold war, the Soviet Union had tank based shock armies in western Europe that could probably reach the English channel in a relatively short time. Nato knew this and so threatened potential first use of tactical nukes in the event of war in order to slow them down. Each side has threatened first use of nuclear weapons over time.
No, the Russians haven't lost "3000" tanks. All Oryx Data shows 1000, 2000 max without visually confirmed.
This video is pretty dumb, since it apparently mixes up armored vehicles with tanks.
@@RazorsharpLT SMOKING TOO MUCH GAY WEED DAD ?
You lying how they advanced all this time and not many are in position to tell us about Russians we know too little
Time for Ukraine to target the Russian tank factories and repair facilities inside Russia.
Ukrainian tractor drivers cant wait for more russky tanks :)

After the first Gulf War I said I wouldn't want to be a Russian tank salesman. 30+ years later, I still feel the same way.
what percentage of "russian" military equipment in service today did the current russian state produce itself, and what percentage was produced by subjected states during the USSR that is still in use. Did subjected counties develop and produce a small or large share of all this ? Would love to see some workup on just tank production of T-62 T-72 if nothing else. TY for content enjoyed your production.
The Soviet Union had some of its major manufacturing facilities in Ukraine. Ukraine built the engines for many of the T-72s and also jet turbines for Soviet helicopters, not to mention the huge transport planes, some of the biggest in the world. One of the main reasons Ukraine has so many tanks now is because they know how to repair captured Russian damaged ones, have an unlimited supply of spare parts and enough experienced mechanics to do the fixing.
The Russian tanks that had thermals were all French made until the invasion of 2022 so honestly not much. Russia is now making their own thermals but it's a huge downgrade in comparison.

O.K, Rust on the hull or fittings of a tank is probably irrelevant to function. But yes, FUBARed electronics is a completely different deal. Engine and transmission are probably somewhere in between these two subsystems in terms of hardihood.
I think these discussions are discounting the Russian ability to improvise and cobble together machinery, however. Russian infrastructure and consumer goods have ALWAYS been iffy, the mindset of the population is very DIY and very mechanically able. Western armies and engineers expect everything to be figured out and all components to be fresh. Russians have a lot of experience rigging things up with bailing wire. What is my point? I expect they are furiously coming up with procedures and designs to churn out tanks right now. We shouldn't be too self satisfied.
going to be a lot of scrap metal needing collection in the ukraine,
A nice side income for the farmers 🙂.
a destroyed tank was a welcome material source for the local craftsman
Russia has tanks. Russia has ground troops. Russia has jets and helicopters. But Russia has not put all of them together effectively. Many times the tanks have no support.
When, this old USN Vet signed-up in mid 80s, I was A L W A Y S Worried about the Soviet bloc of tanks moving into the Fulda Gap........ Now, almost 40 years later....ruSSians........'Meh'.
Served 20+ years
It's a tankless job, but somebody has to do it.
This video should be worth another $100 Billion from the US...😵
Its important to seperate heavy tanks and apc's, because a lot of the 'kill' videos are of apc's beeing blowed up, so the claimed number of heavy tanks losses isn't correct i belive. I also have heard that during the Kharkiv campain the Ukrains focues on killing support trucks (apc and supplies) then the heavy tanks, because they were easier to kill and when they are gone the heavies aren't that effective, espesially without fuel and ammo. The actuall losses we will not now untill after the war, now its a propaganda game of numbers.
You can get accurate visually confirmed and geolocated vehicle losses for both Ukraine and Russia on the Oryx website. Just keep in mind that adding 25% to the Oryx numbers to account for unrepairable equipment is likely to give a more accurate assessment.
@@colincampbell767 And for the equipment that wasn't photographed or filmed, such as ones being hit by indirect artillery, landing on a mine, vehicle damage due to use, vehicles damaged from regular heavy combat beyond field repairs etc.
Yeah, 25% is a conservative estimate.
Russia is teetering on collapse of the Russian Federation, I can see this happening anytime for 6 months, to 5-6 years from now. It'll break apart like the old Soviet Union did, the ethnic animosities between Moscow/St Petersburg and the rest of the Federation has always been there, but the mobilizations, especially mobilizing the other parts of Russia and not Moscow/St Petersburg has not been lost on the entire federation.
While the situation on the stored tanks seems plausible, the numbers of tanks used and lost in Ukraine seems off.
Sources might be helpful to evaluate the data you claim to be true...
Absolutely correct, the winner will be China, getting Siberia for a song...
ive seen trains and ships covered in rust in Russia when i travelled much of the country in the 2000,s it has to be
worse now
And Russia probably knew that the average European, left to their own devices, would have fallen down in surrender rather than put up a fight, like the Ukrainians did, at the sight of all of the Russian tanks rolling across their country. And that is why they were confident that they could easily and quickly reach the English Channel.
Just like WW1 and WW2, it would have been up to America to save them.
All this war has really proved is how vulnerable tanks have become to infantry anti-tank weapons. They were already vulnerable to helicopter airborne weaponry but those same helicopters have been shown to be easy targets for ground based and infantry anti-air weapons as well.
Not really. Anti-tank weapons existed already in WWII. Tanks have to be used together with air and infantry support. And old tanks simply stay no chance on the modern battlefield.
Agreed - rolling coffins. Helicopters = flying coffins.
What the war showed is what happens when you don't properly train your tank crews, don't properly prepare the tanks themselves for combat, and don't follow your own 'combined arms warfare' doctrine. The Russians didn't load the explosives into their ERA and didn't issue ammunition for the smoke grenade launchers before the invaded. (For obvious reasons the explosives for ERA are stored in munitions bunkers in peacetime.)
Smoke grenade launchers are an effective means of self-defense against antitank missiles (when combined with the drivers using effective evasive driving). So is using 'reconnaissance by fire' - identifying good places to launch antitank missiles from and hitting them with machinegun fire or a main gun round to discourage bad behavior. Continuous 360-degree observation in a combat zone is essential no matter what your job in the military is. If a tank platoon is moving on a road or not as part of a larger formation - the first tanks weapons are orientated to the front, the next tank is to the side, the third tank is to the other side, and the last tank is to the rear.
Tanks on a road with the main guns facing forwards aren't going to see anything but the ass end of the tank in front of them. Tanks with the main gun elevated above the horizontal can't see anything but sky. If the tank commander has his hatch closed - the only things he can see are the same things his gunner can see. (Note: this doesn't apply to tanks fitted with 'hunter-killer' sights.)
If I was in Ukraine during the first weeks of the invasion there probably would have been videos of me standing on a Russian tank and yelling at the crews for being morons and making the rest of the world's tankers look bad. (I probably would have also advised them to defect to the US, get a green card, join the US Army - and get properly trained to our standards.)
No it hasn't, this war has proved that the improper operation of a main battle tank is a death sentence and that has been proven since WWII. Tanks work best when combined with infantry, infantry fighting vehicles and air support. You really have no concept of modern war tactics, just stick with something you actually know best, like smoking weed.
@@colincampbell767 "me standing on a Russian tank and yelling at the crews"

The Russians did just that.
Russia could send a single nuke into the atmosphere and put Europe or USA into the dark ages. That would kill multi millions.
@@gokissasickmonkeyswetass, We would shoot it down if it is not on a balloon.
Those would have been wise words to the chap in the Kremlin 12 months ago.
Question, if this is the Condition of Russia's Military, I'm curious as to whats the Condition of Their Nuclear Capabilities?
It would be logical to assume that their nuclear arsenal is in about the same condition as the rest of their military supplies and capabilities.
Another thing to consider : ICBMs are designed to go outside of Earth's atmosphere - then "re-enter" over the designated target. This is an
exact calculation - too shallow of re-entry and the warhead skips off the atmosphere and back into space....too steep of an angle and the war-
head burns up due to friction. It is critical to re-enter at about + or - approx. 2 degrees...are they confident of their ability to hit this narrow window ??
@@urbanurchin5930 Cant Remember where I Head this, but I Vaguely remember Hearing "We are not Worried about the Country with Hundreds of Thousands of Nukes, it's a Faction with One Nuke that Scares Us because they have nothing to Lose", I'm Deeply concerned if, like their Tanks, there's a Nuke Missing from Corruption, not being Paranoid.
Russia has plenty of tanks... They are just a bit old and will have to be cannibalised to get a certain number ready... so maybe 2-3 to get 1 good one (well one that actually runs).
don't worry, their tanks are in much better condition than yours! ;)
@greyvoice7949, by old you mean cold war tanks of which 30% are rusty and beyond repair? I agree.
@@Maddog-xc2zv do you mean leopards produced in 80-ies? It was cold war, they're rusty and beyond repair but Zelensky is happy to get them! What's your point? ;)
@@Cachalote65 Leopards bult in the 80's are already L2 versions. Many where phased out or upgraded. Some A4 versions are superior to base A6. yes, I would be very glad to get them if I was ukrainian. Even the Leos 1 are better than using pickups (or buses like the russians already did to move troops) without any armour at all. Still the 80's leos 2, vastly better than t-72, t-80 and even the undeperforming T-90 which active deffenses seem to been failling all day. Those Leo2 will have thermal and stabilized guns and will be in some cases upgraded. My point is made.
@@Maddog-xc2zv it's only theory. In real life those leopards can be easily burnt out. Watch some videos from Syria. ;)
Russia doesn't have tanks, it only has turret launch platforms.
ua-cam.com/video/aLv-W9eeJsE/v-deo.html Love all those mostly non existent Russian super weapons made out of non waterproof cardboard and purpose as mockup for display and military parades. Also liking all the design failures Russian designers build in militairy equipement
O
Those who designed the tanks of russia before are either crippled or dead. Most of them are poisoned.
Russian tanks and armored vehicles are truly the best in the world! No one else burns and explodes so beautifully!
You just dreaming
this is fake american youtube channel. click dislike to video.
China invading Russia would also have to factor in those same nukes that NATO is afraid of
Очередная невыдуманная история, о которой невозможно молчать. Т.е. новые Т-90 "Прорыв" взялись на фронте из воздуха? Новые БМП с необитаемой башней тоже взялись из воздуха? В одном предложении говорим о том, что всё танки на хранении - ржавый хлам, а в следующем - что они появляются на фронте. И можно указывать источники с цифрами потерь и количество танков на вооружении, а то пока что, согласно моим исследованием, ты врёшь ради пропаганды.
It's all about making this little war to go world wide as planned by NATO
Hey rusky the 1st guards tank army the most prestigious and decorated armored core in the history of Russia nolonger exists it had the latest in Russian armored equipment including T90 M‘s the fact they now face atleast 31 abrams almost 200 leopard and over 50 Bradleys😂😂 it’s clear how poorly Russian tactics logistics and trainings has effected its armored ability to fight against below teir opponents.. these will be very ones sided engagements

@@tudorbflorin they sheep will always be sheep.. When they wake up it will be to late
Don't let the Russians know this !! We don't want them to reinforce their armour.
