You don't have to be James Bond to call a Russian support line and get help troubleshooting issues with the tank you captured and plan to use against its invading forces
A Ukrainian officer with the call sign Kochevnik posted a video of himself apparently calling the support line for Russian tank manufacturer Uralvagonzavod in order to help fix one of their tanks that had been captured by Ukrainian forces, and whose build quality he complained about at length.
While it is not clear if the phone conversation is legitimate, or a propaganda stunt, Kochevnik told the support person that he was experiencing problems with his T-72B3 tank, a model used widely by the. He ran through a series of complaints, including that the tank was spewing oil and had faulty compressors, and a bad electric turret rotation mechanism, meaning that the crew had to turn it with a hand crank.
“When we take more of these tanks as our trophies, make them better so that it will be easier for us to operate them. Agreed? Thank you very much. Take care of yourselves. Glory to Ukraine,” he said, per One of many tanks captured by Ukrainian forces, estimates suggest that Russia had around 3,000 operational tanks when it launched its invasion and that it has since lost at least 2,329 of those.
