Russia's 14 Armata Tanks Appear To Be Deployed To Ukraine |
International Military - A new Russian T-14 Armata tank is seen in Lugansk. According to the source, the tank is located in the village of Midginskaya. In his report on October 8, 2022, the source attached a photo of the T-14. There was no way to prove that the photo was from Luhansk, and not from a Russian training ground.
Quoted from Bulgarian Military, in fact, we should not be surprised by the possibility that Russia sent T-14s to Ukraine. In recent years, Russia has frequently sent new weapons technologies to be tested in real combat conditions.
Until a few months ago, it was Syria, but since the start of the war in Ukraine, Moscow has switched weapons for testing there. Russia is ready to improve the military situation in Ukraine.

The deployment of tanks may be part of Moscow's efforts to do just that. Such a claim is confirmed by the latest deliveries of T-90s to the Western Military District over the past four weeks. The mobilization announced on September 21 is the third indicator of Russia's efforts to improve the military situation.
The T-14 in Ukraine can be used as a command tank for other Russian tanks. In fact, this is one of the functional characteristics of the tank. Currently, the source claims that the T-14 is alone on the battlefield and that no other unit of the same model has been sent there.
Quoted from Military Watch Magazine, the T-14 has very high capabilities, powerful sensors, and much higher mobility. This will then make it a strong force on the battlefield even if deployed in limited numbers. This also makes the T-14 serve as a command tank for other Russian armored units.
