So it is slightly worse than T-72. For all I know my point still stands. We all know how those fared in March 2022.

Yet NATO still bombed their targets. Russia hasn't. They have to resort to exhausting their valuable missile stocks.
It's a relatively recent platform. But the point is, I regularly see Lancet footage, I can count LMUR footage probably on one hand.
I don't think I've said anything objectionable. What is your source of disagreement?
There shouldn't be any problems in terms of ground pressure for both tanks. Be it NGP (Nominal Ground Pressure) as usually quoted or MMP (Mean Maximum Pressure) which rarely used but more descriptive.
It will boils down to infrastructure as others have lined out previously. Whether their bridge can support them, availability of fuel etc.

Good luck supporting Challenger, Leopard 2, Leclerc, and Abrams simultaneously.
And missiles are expendable regardless of their values. i dont see any problem Russian using missiles. Like VKS appears not even trying to do any deep penetration mission from the start. They instead support their armies most.
and how much "Valuable" these missiles are...
Yeah but well.. i don't think it's an indicator Russian wants to take opportunity for export by showing footages of it i recalled LMUR was already offered for export even before SMO started..
Your argument have no clear indications. That's not a good way to do discussion. If you say "they lacking missiles" Show hard numbers. How many they have, how many expended. As simple as that.
Relying on just say.. "i see xxx footages" is not a good indicator.
I'm talking about Rogatka. The base T-72B3 with K5 dates back to 1989, what started coming up together around 2011 was the T-72B3M with thermals, Relikt on the side panels and so on.
That has to do with the limitations imposed by the shape of the cast turret. The T-80U looks just as much as slapped on around the ring turret but you don't notice because of the rubber flaps. And for whichever reason the soviets didn't deem it necesary to make the K5 modules it reach all the way down to the ring
They do, but they don't seem to be doing much, plus it also reduces the contact area of the tracks
Just hope Russians wont find their fuel depot.
Here we witness the invincible Abrams Tank, in combat with flip-flop wearing Yemenis surviving on less than ¢10 per day while wielding the "inferior" Russian Kornet ATGM system.
I'm curious about this footage... like did the crew made out ?
The Abrams is always portrayed to be safe to crews if it got hit as they have separation between munitions and crew from the Bustle racks and blow out panel to direct munition explosion upward.
However if the door to ammo compartment to the loader is not closed.. then it's a RIP.
Russian tracks aren’t just slick strips of steel, they have cleated patterns too.
