Russia scrapes the bottom of the military barrel as it rushes decades old tanks to the Ukrainian front lines




Russia is truly scraping the bottom of the military barrel as it has been confirmed that authorities are desperately rushing decades-old tanks to the Ukrainian front lines.

A large transporter train was recently spotted trundling towards Ukraine laden with hastily refurbished T-54B and T-55 tanks, which were first used in battle in the 1950s.

Crews manning these antiques might as well be using umbrellas to try and withstand anti-tank fire from any Ukrainian weaponry, let alone state-of-the-art main battle tanks such as the Leopard, Challenger 2, or M1. These deadly machines’ projectiles will cut through a T-54 or a T-55 as if they were made out of paper, instantly turning the crews into twitching, bloody giblets.
