Gunner- HEAT- PC : En chasse sous la pluie avec un T80B!

------------------------------------ Overview The T-80 tank is a product of the tank design war that raged between the various design bureaus of the Soviet Union throughout the Cold War. An evolution of the T-64 design, it debuted with some bold choices, like the use of a gas turbine engine instead of the familiar diesel power packs of other tanks. Despite more than a passing resemblance to the existing T-64 and T-72 platforms, the T-80 was ultimately accepted into service, and several additional upgrades followed suit. By the mid-’80s, the T-80B model was stationed in the central region of Germany in droves, with thousands of examples making up a large part of the tank fleet of the Group of Soviet Forces in Germany (GSFG). This upgraded T-80 featured tried and tested armor packages and up-to-date offensive weaponry, and unlike the severely outdated equipment of the East Germans or the increasingly obsolete T-64A, it presented few obvious downsides.
