One of those retards again.
The tank did not break down, watch the video in its entirety before proudly looking like a moron.
There's no credible information about the tank having engine problems either. There's most likely issues with the design, hence why they don't put it in mass production, they're just not satisfied with it. Any military has had (and continues to have) its share of vehicle designs that took far too long and cost way too much to put into mass production.
I mean look at the absolute disaster that was the F-35 program. The plane development cost the US an arm, spent 20 years in software debug limbo, and ended up being a big pile of hot garbage that countries buy just for political reasons (and to get US nukes by procuration).
The difference is that the Russians know how to make tanks, they've made more tanks that all other nations combined multiple times over since tanks are a thing. Westoids are just fantasizing about their Western overpriced garbage because of some marginal gadgets like blowout panels, that don't even save the crew most of the time.
Russia can produce up to 4 tanks for every Western MBT but a Western MBT cannot provide the value of 4 Russian tanks, and that's what matters. The Germans went the same route in WWII, but at least that's because they had no choice, not because they're retarded like the current West with their military designs that are only made to look good and sell, not win a war.
