During the battle for the village of Robotyne in Zaporizhzhia, Ukrainian defenders shot down and captured a Russian T-90M Proryv tank worth more than $4 million.
The photo of the trophy tank was posted on Facebook by Censor.NET editor-in-chief Yuriy Butusov.
"Russia's newest tank, the T-90M Breakthrough, which Russian propaganda calls "the best in the world" and "has no analogues", was hit and captured by Ukrainian soldiers in the battle for the village of Robotyno, Zaporizhzhia region. An unknown Ukrainian anti-tank missile system crew or Bradley infantry fighting vehicle operator hit a vulnerable spot in the turret of the $4 million tank with a missile, burning a hole in the armour, and smearing the Russian commander with a little bit of a cumulative charge. However, there was no fire, the tank did not break down and remained virtually intact and repairable. And the fighters of the separate assault battalion "Skala" captured this tank. Tomorrow, we will show you the unboxing of the brand new T-90M Breakthrough, manufactured in 2022. Glory to the Armed Forces of Ukraine," he said.
