It has some, but: "...the T-72B is a terrible night-fighter. Its 1K13-19 gunner’s sight has a passive night-vision mode that doesn’t require an infrared spotlight, but it lacks range. To identify targets out to the tank’s maximum engagement range of around 1,200 yards, at night, a T-72B crew must switch on its infrared spotlight and use the 1K13-19 sight in its active mode.

The problem, of course, is that any enemy forces with their own infrared sights can see the spotlight, too—and pinpoint the T-72B’s position."

Please re-read, this is not about Juliani. This is about his Ukrainian ally.

AFAIK, equipment is not a problem - they just proceed carefully, waiting for doctors' decision. I also hope for the better.

Yes, we Ukrainians value the land and appreciate every bit of it where something can be grown. Here around the apartment houses every tiny bit of land is filled with flowers, fruit and ornamental trees. It is unthinkable for us to turn the landscape into a wasteland.

You know, numerous other nations are still colonized by Russia - including those who have rich oil, gas and mineral deposits in their land.

If we'll be able to establish mutually beneficial cooperation with them, this would be nice. Ukrainians have decades of experience working on these very deposits. Having been colonized by Russia in the past, we'll understand well the concerns of these people.

Russia does run out of tanks, gradually. That's why it has started to use obsolete Soviet-era tanks. The day when Russia completely runs out of tanks isn't anytime soon, since Russia has thousands of obsolete tanks in storage.

Still, the number of tanks Russia has diminishes every day, and their quality is worsening. In the meantime, Ukraine gets new rather modern vehicles from the West and captures a lot of Russian ones. Having an advantage, Ukraine is going to destroy even more Ruscist tanks - and thus move closer to the distant victory.
