Read an interesting thread about the use of T55s basically saying that this is proof of the effectiveness of western sanctions. It is not that the Russians don’t have more T72s and 80s in storage. They have far more of them then the 250 or so T55s they have. It is that they are unable to get the needed “advanced” electronic and optical components to restore them, while much less is required to get a mothballed T55 up and running.
