Tanks moving through a built-up area should normally use close infantry support to prevent ambushes from the side of the road, Barry said. Several military experts described the video as credible and said it showed surprising tactics on the part of the Russian forces, with more than 20 tanks and other armoured vehicles on a main road fairly close to the capital.īen Barry, a former tank commander with the British army and a land warfare specialist with the International Institute for Strategic Studies, a thinktank, said: “They either think they are going through a safe area, or they were not well trained or they are moving fast for some other requirement.” “Sixth regiment lost,” the officer tells headquarters. It also said the regiment’s commander was killed, named by Ukrainian media as Col Andrei Zakharov, although this could not be independently confirmed. This is presented as an effective commentary on the fighting shown. It is overlaid with an audio of what appears to be a Russian officer reporting an attack to his superiors. Its production quality means the fighting filmed may not have taken place on Thursday.

Transported to her new home in rural Western Australia, T24676 will undergo a full ground up restoration.The edited 45-second video, which was released by Ukraine’s armed forces, is a montage of the fighting on the road and shows a company or more of Russian tanks and armoured vehicles coming under repeated attack. Eventually abandoned on the farm, T24676 has embarked on a new lease of life after a collector found her sitting in paddock.

To lighted the weight of the tank, the turret was removed and disposed of. It was a farmer who bought T24676 for the purpose of using it to clear scrub and other towing duties around the farm. This particular Grant was most probably sold from the wheatbelt town of Nungarin. All surplus Grants were sold off at disposal auctions state wide.

All of these ex British Grants were delivered to Western Australia and that is where they remained for the duration of the war. After the Germans were defeated in North Africa, a number of these British owned Grants were transferred to the Australian army. Originally used by the British army in North Africa, this tank sustained battle damage from German anti tank and small arms fire during it’s tour of duty. Fortunately, a good deal of information on this vehicle is provided in the description on youtube: This video from late August shows footage of a rather worse for wear looking M3 Grant tank being driven around.
