I've made videos talking about and busting tank myths in the past, but there wasn't an overall theme. I've recently decided to do more topical myth videos. For this one, we're going to be focusing on main battle tanks originally created by the Soviet Union. These would include the T-64, T-72, T-80, and T-90 (sort of). The T-90 isn't technically a Soviet main battle tank since it was built after the fall of the Soviet Union, but it was originally conceived as a massive upgrade to the T-72, so I think it still technically counts.
