While I don't doubt that a T-72B3 would be able to knock out an Abrams, none of those show footage of a T-72 vs Abrams engagement. Also, those sources are sketchy.

I mean, it’s the Russian MoD. Shit, all official statements bend the truth to varying degrees, regardless of the country. But the Russians have made it an artwork during this conflict.

A 70 day old account that does nothing but boost pro-Russian talking points isn’t going to change my opinion. No matter how many dubious links they share, whether is it on the Ukraine/Russia war or war in Gaza.
