Part one of my field
Part one of my field guide to the vehicles and equipment of the late Cold War Soviet Army!
The appearance of U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) visual information does not imply or constitute DoD endorsement.
A few notes/corrections:
I misspelled Ukranian on the title card 14:57-15:12
I got the relative encumbrance of 115mm and 100mm ammunition wrong, 115mm ammunition is approximately the same weight or lighter, and the same length or shorter, than 100mm. The confusion came from comparing their casing lengths (100x692mm vs 115x727mm) and not overall lengths. However, the T-62 does have a slower rate of fire (stationary aimed shots per minute) per the Soviet manual, likely due to the loader assistance device and sight-follows-gun stabilizer on the T-62 moving the sight off the target and locking the turret rotation during loading.

If you're interested in high quality discourse about defense topics, why not try the Combined Defense discord! Link is in the sidebar of /r/militarygfys.
A non-comprehensive list of sources is as follows:
The articles by Tankograd ( https://thesovietarmourblog.blogspot.... )
Andrei Tarasenko's work at http://BTVT.info/ and http://btvt.narod.ru/
Looser's very amusing guide on Sturgeon's House
Peter Samsonov's excellent work at http://www.tankarchives.ca/
Some images and information were sourced from ST 100-7: Soviet Tactical Handbook, as well as FM 100-2-3 (1991) The Soviet Army: Troops Organization and Equipment.
The CIA report is available in their FOIA reading room, using the accession number provided in the video.
Images and video are used fair use, for whatever that disclaimer is worth. I'm not making a dime off this and it's pretty patently educational.
