Editing T-72B (section)

==In Real Life==
The T-72B is an upgraded version of the standard T-72 featuring a number of improvements meant to allow the tank to stand alongside the T-80 at the forefront of armored spearheads. These include an upgraded version of the 125mm main gun along with an improved stabilizer, sights, and fire control systems, the addition of appliqué armour in the front of hull, improved composites in the turret armor and Kontakt-<s>5</s>1 Explosive Reactive Armor.

Currently large numbers of T-72B are lining the sides of Ukranian roads as burned-out husks. Despite all the upgrades, the T-72B is faring no better than Saddam's 'Lion of Babylon' T-72M against the sophisticated anti-armor weaponry of NATO. It’s been seen almost exclusively in the hands of Russians or their puppet militias and in addition to their poor employment, a few models have even been spotted without their ERA attached (or literal plastic rags being in the ERA bags), a horrifying prospect to any tanker in an environment crawling with anti-tank munitions. Seeing as how HEAT and Tandem shaped warheads were countered with the use of ERA armor blocks or APS systems, this is a [[FAIL|complete devolution]] to [[derp|1960's armor protection levels]].
