Soviet Era Hardware


Got to hang out on a Soviet T-62 tank today. Back in the day, we were concerned about a massive force-on-force battle against these bad boys in Germany's Fulda Gap. Today...well...not so much. Dorky Physics professors get to climb on them...

    Wow that is a neat tank. Who is that handsome soldier on top of it?

    I am glad you are not looking at the wrong end of it!

    Oooh, very cool Dad. Pretty sweet stuff. Is there a lot of equipment like that still over there?

    Lots...in fact much of what the Afghan army uses is old Soviet equipment.
