Description
This was what was left of an uparmored T64 witht he horseshoe armor skirt around the forward turret, used to defeat RPG hits in the turret. Managed to sneak itn the grave yard while on a mission so lucky to have a charge left in my crappy digi cam.
armed with an M4 with a 203 the guards really didn't bother me as I roamed thought the vehicles. ;)

I have studied Soviet armor mostly in the Rockeye and Dragon area. HEAT has to hit but depleted uranium responds nicely to an Eclipse. I lost my girl online when I told her I was disarming boys displaying machine guns in Afghanistan. Then it happened. Glad you had a more realistic approach.

Nice detail view of field applied armor. My first thought was "Watch out, Robert!" Charlie used to sneak into the aircraft boneyards in Nam and rig explosive traps. When airmen went looking for parts or sight-seeing... Sounds like this yard is better guarded.

Nice shot here, I guess the extra armour wasn't enough for them eh?

I'll post some of the landscape so you can see that most o the tanks didn't stand achance in box roads and valleys usualy with only one way out.. Kinda freaky rollingint a village and seeing what left of convoy that was destroyed 20+ years ago, still sitting where it was since then..
