This is a T-72BA (Т-72БА) Russian main-battle tank. With very high probability this tank can be attributed to the Russian regular troops that intervened into the War in August of 2014. Ukrainian army did not use tanks of this model and modification at the time of the battle.--vityok (talk) 11:11, 16 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This is OR. Look here: http://www.military-today.com/tanks/t72b3.htm --Markscheider (talk) 12:21, 16 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
This tank is not T-72Б3 since at least it does not have Sosna-U sights.--vityok (talk) 11:50, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Removed controversial categories

[edit]

Removed two categories that implied that the T-72BA on the photo is:

  1. a Ukrainian T-72;
  2. belonged to Ukrainian armor in the war with Russia.

because: there is no recorded and reliable evidence that Ukraine had T-72BA tanks in service at the time of this battle.--vityok (talk) 11:50, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
