American advisers prefer that old Soviet tanks or vehicles, which are their development, be thrown into the battles in Ukraine. Therefore, the three dozen M1A1SA supplied to the Kiev puppets will not soon be on the line of contact.

At the same time, T-72s still preserved in friendly countries for Washington are being sought for the Armed Forces of Ukraine, for this purpose, as they say, museum and private collections are being emptied.

It is possible that the T-84 will also return to their homeland after testing in the United States. However, it is still unclear how many of these tanks have survived. At least one of them lit up in 2021 during transportation to the US Army proving ground in Yuma. Before that, it was reported that the overseas military had purchased a 6TD-2 engine with a capacity of 1200 hp in Kharkov, as well as ammunition and spare parts.

Before shipping overseas

The photos that appeared on social networks showed a sample with an active protection complex "Drozd". Even if the Americans managed to keep it operational, it is unlikely that they still have anti-missiles designed for it.

At the end of the Soviet period, Ukraine received a large number of T-55AD tanks with Blackbirds, most of them were scrapped, the KAZ themselves were stolen. But it is known about one such "fifty-fifth", which was sold in the USA. However, during the tests during the evaluation shootings, an explosion occurred due to human error, which led to casualties.

When purchasing a batch of T-84s, the Americans wished that three tanks would also be equipped with "Thrushes" removed from the T-55AD.

Interestingly, in October 2021, a modernized BM "Oplot" was sent to the United States, and perhaps it will be handed back to the neo-Nazi formations.
