Ukrainian armored units are pushing hard on the southeastern front seeking gaps in Russia's defensive lines there.
The Ukrainian tank fired two rounds into the Russian tank's side in quick succession, seemingly immobilizing the T-72B3. White smoke began billowing from the Russian tank hatches, suggesting the penetration of its armored hull. The Ukrainian tank then moved away back down the tree line. The dramatic kill was captured by at least two drones filming from different angles.
When they have occurred, tank-on-tank engagements"usually take place within 1,000m," RUSI wrote."Engagement speed has been the determining factor in these clashes."on the southern front, with Ukrainian units seeking to exploit gaps in Russia's so-called"Surovikin Line" of defenses around the settlement of Verbove, north of the logistical hub of Tokmak and the strategic prize of Melitopol.
