Photos of another T-90S tank of the Azerbaijani armed forces, destroyed during the recent war for Nagorno-Karabakh, have appeared on the Internet.

The explosion apparently destroyed the tank
Judging by the number 81 on the mud shield, the car belongs to the same unit that lost at least one more T-90S, which the Armenian side received with minor damage.

The destroyed tank was equipped with a knife minesweeper
From the tank that lit up earlier, this instance differs in the presence of a mounted knife minesweeper. Perhaps we are talking about another combat vehicle, which was also disabled and left by the crew on the same sector of the front, and it was shown on a video taken in the first days of the war.

This captured T-90S doesn't have a trawl
However, that tank had a turret in place. And here it is not, an internal explosion of ammunition turned the "ninety" into a pile of scrap metal. Perhaps it was simply blown up when it could not be evacuated to the rear.

Also, some time ago, the Armenian side demonstrated the T-90S, which, allegedly, previously also belonged to the Azerbaijani army. Some military experts, such as Alexey Khlopotov, considered that the only T-90S received by Armenian tankers was awarded for the trophy as a prize for a successful performance at the "Tank Biathlon".

T-90S in the Armenian army: a trophy or a Russian prize for "tank biathlon"?
