The Russians have literally dug up a Ukrainian Azov "Invincible Super-Weapon" armoured vehicle, and it is hilarious. At first, I thought this video was a weird April Fool's joke from Patrick, as the vehicle is a total pile of junk. But later on he shows the Ukie propaganda videos for it. I couldn't stop laughing. It was obvious a scam project to rinse mega-$$$ from the West, and they buried it to hide the evidence. Or out of shame. The engineering is like an African backyard project.
Based on a T-64, it is much heavier than a normal Soviet tank. It can hardly move with the underpowered engine, and sinks in mud. There are no viewing ports for the driver, relying instead on three low-res cameras that get covered in mud. Then there are the *two* turrets that bump into each other. On the back is a drone "launch pad". The vehicle was to be entirely covered in up to two layers of reactive armour. There is a single hatch at the back next to the engine, so if hit, the entire crew would probably have to escape through a fire.
