stikpusherJohn, that fingerprint looking paint cracking often happens on those soft track shrouds/side skirts when a section gets bent back. I've seen plenty of it on different types in person.
now I know how to explain my glueprint boo boos if the glue seeps between my finger and the model.
Well there goes my conspiracy theory
Thanks,
John
Pawel, according to what I've read elsewhere, the shipping label on the tank says that it's heading for Aberdeen. That's usually where "obtained" foreign ground gear heads for analysis and evaluation.

Usually they aren't very thick as they aren't critical and the tank doesn't want to get hung up on obstacles
Modeling is an excuse to buy books.
keavdog Interesting dio opportunity. Great photos. I kinda feel like it's a photo shopped model because of the thumbprint

I saw this on the internet too. If this rig was parked at a truck stop around here, I'd be crawling all over the tank taking reference picture!

Pawel,
I took it as the crosses were the Ukrainians identifying the tank as a now being Ukrainian, not to be confused with being a Russian tank; not that national ID symbols like the white star really exist any more. Too much optical rather than visual recognition.
JammerLooks to be a captured T-90 being sent somewhere to be studied. Lots of good pictures at the link for reference.
The crosses on it suggest that it's last operator were the Ukrainians and so they probably donated the tank. Would be interesting to know who the recipient would be...
Have a nice day
Paweł
All comments and critique welcomed. Thanks for your honest opinions!

Read the title and only one thing came to mind.
It makes for an interesting comparison between what we modelers think and what reality really looks like.
I have no idea how thick Russian tank fenders are, but I did get to feel a Tiger I's, and it was more like plate steel than sheet metal.
I wonder if this is the first close-up look the US will have of the Shtora IR dazzlers and other active/passive defences.
“Ya ya ya, unicorn papoi!”
Thanks!
Great & helpful images there.

Though it does need some more weathering. The fenders aren't bent enough and no where near enough rust added to it.
