What kind of army leaves 200 tanks in the woods for anyone to take?

[Boilers]

Should we even fear a military that behaves in this manner?

An army that used to make Americans practice drills where they hid under their desks in fear.

i think we should most certainly fear a military that can afford to just abandon 200 tanks.

Exactly, if they can afford to "forget" about 200 tanks...then we need to be concerned.

If I were a betting man, I would say that the Russians have left a lot worse things in the woods during the cold war than a couple hundred tanks.

200 Tanks lost in a woods... Sounds more like a used car lot to me...

 

[Expat]

it does make me worry about how much nuular stuff may have walked out of russia over the years. I remember that we gave them money to prevent that. But still.

Tanks are cool

Owning a tank would be beyond cool but about as close as we'll get today is a visit to the Patton Museum at Ft. Knox. Our neighborhood covenants prohibits tanks, anyway!

I read the title and immediately thought Russia. Open it up and see that it was indeed Russia. Should have seen the **** they left in Afghanistan. Perfectly working SCUDs, Tanks, all sorts of ****. They even left a damn boat. IT'S A DESERT! WHY DO YOU NEED A BOAT?!

 

[thecanuck]

It's the sort of Army that's still sitting on the 2nd largest nuclear stockpile in the world.... If 200 tanks are left unguarded, abandoned in the forest - makes you wonder bout the real dangerous stuff!

 

[Ogre]

They just left them there for SHTF, thats there bug out check point/ armor cache....

Hey Comrade... Tanks A LOT!

I wonder if they are importable under C&R?

 

[00BlasterResto]

Imagine walking through your back woods and finding those! WHO"S A BAD MOTHER ------ NOW!, I'd have had a tank track and all the trees would have been blown up (providing they left ammo of course, I would hope what good are tank with no ammo), Yep would be awsome.

No...

They are T-72's and T-80's Made in the late 60's thru the 90's...

Do you have any idea how much fun it is to drive over stuff with a Tank...
