According to some reports, the Ukrainian formations during the fighting in the area of the village of Rabotino on the Orekhovsky section of the front in the direction of Zaporozhye managed to capture the newest T-90M tank of the Russian armed forces.
As noted in the message of foreign agencies, the crew of the tank, unfortunately, was not able to destroy the abandoned combat vehicle.
Details of the alleged capture of the tank are not known. If the information is correct, then this, unfortunately, is not the first T-90M tank that has fallen into the hands of the Ukrainians.
Previously, the same tank was captured during the regrouping of Russian troops in the Kharkiv direction in 2022. Then the captured T-90M was handed over to the 30th mechanized brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
At the same time, losses of these tanks in good condition are extremely rare. There may be only a few known cases, which is an insignificant number given the duration and intensity of the armed conflict in Ukraine.
The T-90M tank is a modernized version of the T-90A tank. This modification was first presented to the public at the international military-technical forum Army 2018. In the spring of 2020, the first T-90M tanks began to enter the ground forces of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, and from 2022 they began to are used in the combat zone during a special military operation.
