Sensational footage shows Ukrainian armour conducting a high-speed, long-distance counter-strike against entrenched Russian positions. In this interview, military expert and former British tank commander breaks down how Ukraine is combining 'turtle tanks' (T-72/T-80) with real-time drone surveillance, electronic warfare, and rapid fire-and-manoeuvre tactics to break through years of static trench warfare. From the lessons of Operation Vivaldi to the future of armoured warfare like the British Challenger 3, learn why reports of the tank's demise have been greatly exaggerated - and how Ukraine’s innovative tactics are rewriting the modern playbook.
