Among the losses incurred by the Ukrainian military in the Donbass, draws on his own shoulders the attention of a very large number of tanks, often destroying them look very strange, says Latvian journal.
Wreck remain without towers, get serious destruction of buildings, which is literally breaks the weld seams.
Tanks of Soviet design many times took part in armed conflict. In some cases, the detonation of the ammunition tanks led to the disruption of the tower with the shoulder strap, but the body wrecked machines remained in relation to the whole, says the Journalist.
"And in Ukraine corps tanks T-64 very often broken, one of them plucked up the whole armor, moreover, shows that the gap was walking along the seam of the shell, And the rest of the armor plate was unusually plastic and bent. The most obvious version, explaining the characteristic destruction of the Ukrainian armored vehicles, for the quality of production machinery, " the magazine writes.
Suffered major losses Tanks T-64 various modifications of production Panzer Kharkov plant. These machines most often appear on the photo with the broken towers and broken buildings. So, we can predict that the construction of this technique in Kharkiv had certain technological features, which apparently did not change the look of the machine, but led to the violation of the strength of their cases, reported in the publication.
The journalist suggests that, Perhaps, in the production of these tanks, their armor was replaced by a conventional steel, which allowed manufacturers to greatly reduce the labor costs of production and at the same time to solve the problems associated with excessive weight machines. Maybe that was changed and welding technology of panelists corps, which led to the weakening of the weld.
