That’s hilarious! Didn’t one guy turn one into a farm tractor?
I wonder how that conversation came about
Did he trophy it or is he just so convincing, he got the ruzzians to hand it over to him?
Well this explains russian claims that Ukraine uses civilian housing for military purpose…it was just farmers storing loot 😀
If I remember correctly this kind of thing was encouraged by the Ukrainian government early in the war when they declared that citizens did not have to pay taxes on recovered Russian vehicles.
Another T-80U? Does Russia even have any U models remaining?
I want a tank too.
He might be arguing it was legitimate salvage
Texas getting envious.
When the war is over, I hope this guy gets the tank back.
Did he decorate it inside: Doilies? Icons? Carpets?… 🙂
Reminded me of the [Heikendorf Panther](https://www.newsweek.com/ww2-tank-found-german-pensioners-basement-329755).
There’s a guy that has a decommissioned Soviet-built T-34-85 medium tank, which used to be located on the corner of Mandela Way and Page’s Walk in Bermondsey, London, England.

He had previously allegedly obtained permission for the installation of a “tank” there, assumed by council officials to mean a septic tank.
I hope they didn’t take it away from him.
I’ve got a good upper and lower, just need some optics…..
Great barn find
Do militaries not keep trackers on their equipment? Especially stuff as expensive as a tank, I know it’s unlikely that one could be just lost but surely it’d be beneficial to know where your equipment is
Finders keepers.
Did he get to keep it??
I’m pretty sure lots of those tanks being towed by tractors are in someone’s sheds now… And I would probably do same thing
Lol, as we say in Ukraine, that will come handy in the household
