Its ok, I found it, the post wasnt posted on here, as above, he saw it on social media, not here.

Glorious potatoes to you and your family comrade.
But he did post it here.Interesting you know who he is.🤔 My roubles won't buy as many potatoes these days,oddly the supermarkets keep asking for €uros.
 
Yeah, I was thinking he was throwing out weird accusations for a man who has been spamming the thread with dubious Youtube links since he slithered back on here. At least when he likes all the posts that reference Ukrainian nazis, he's not clogging up the thread
As I say, hes the only person who ever spoke about such a thing.

Willing to admit ive made a mistake if he can post the receipts.
Why would I bother posting anything that you're too lazy to find.
 
@davids is this the post?

If so, this was the only post saying anything about the crew.
Little rats scuttling off after the first strike.
Then there was discussion about turret pops.
These tanks seen so vulnerable. I am no expert but whatever these drones are dropping on them does not seem very sophisticated but seems to have no problem in destroying tanks with ease. Makes you wonder whether tanks are worth the effort if a simple drone dropping a mortar shell can wipe them out?

Usually artillery shells from the times of the Second World War or 60-70s are attached to such drones, since we have a lot of them in stock and there is simply no point in using them for other purposes. But Im really shocked at how easily they tear these tanks apart.

Historically, a tank's top armour wasn't required to be well protected as in most cases it was unlikely, if not impossible, for it to be hit in that position.

After that, the rear armour behind the engine was weak too. The glacis plate, side, turret and gun mantle had the thick armour, which was the main weight.

Don't forget, the T-72 was designed in the 60s and produced in numbers in the 70s. The T-80 wasn't a huge leap forward and has the same deficiencies.

Along came the Javelin and others which strike at the top of the turret - shooting along and then rising up and dropping down. These attack the same weakness.

The correct round dropped from a reasonable height will have enough to penetrate the top armour, and don't forget Russian turrets are full of ammunition.
I didn’t manage to find any gloating, sorry.
