The last time T-62Ms were upgraded was in the 1980s.
Russia supposedly got rid of theirs by 2013.
They hadn't, as some were taken out of storage to be sent to Syria .
And now, they're updating their shit with (old) thermal sights for use in Ukraine
Not even bothering with ERA (explosive reactive armor, those bricks you see on Russian tanks).
The bulges you see on the turret here is applique armor from 1983, Kontakt-1 ERA was supposed to replace it in the 1985 modification.
for the obvious reasons, but also because none of them have started an industry that makes replica tanks etc. for WWII movies and shit.
Either fully realistic versions* or modular ones to easily switch out turrets/barrels to represent any of the full alphabet of Panzer IV variants** that Nazis fielded during the war.
It was a good movie - and I wasn't expecting absolutely anything from it.
You can say I paid with my blood to see it as we got the tickets with coupons I get for donating blood.
