The Russian military command transferred the T-62M and T-62MV tanks to Ukraine. The video about the tanks was posted on social networks. In particular, the international volunteer community, InformNapalm, has made a breakthrough with these tanks. According to the ensemble, the train was spotted in Kamyansk-Shakhtinsk in the Rostov region.
«These tanks will be used to supplement the reserve tank regiment on the basis of the 150th Motor Rifle Division of the 8th All Military Army.“, – is said in the message.
On May 23, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported that the enemy had to remove T-62 tanks from storage due to losses during hostilities.
The tanks are used to assemble tactical groups of reserve battalions being created for deportation to Ukraine. A video was also released featuring Russian tractors carrying T-62 tanks and marked with the Latin letter “Z”.
In 1962, the tank was adopted by the Soviet Army under the designation T-62A “Object 165”. The upgraded version of the T-62 tank with the Sheksna guided weapon system was designated T-62M. The upgraded version of the T-62M tank with dynamic hinged protection and without additional armored protection of the turret and hull was designated T-62MV.
We will remind, in 2021 T-62MV tanks were noticed on the territory of the Southern military district. In August 2018, during the Vostok 2018 exercise, the Russian military removed at least several dozen T-62M and T-62MV from storage at the bases. source
