Because they have lost 2000 tanks and need any mobile firepower they can get their hands on, and the super old tanks don't require precision bearings and foreign restricted electronics to get operational.

Honestly, it feels good to see a doggedly determined people pulling out all the stops to defend their homeland from the globalists

Would be smart to rig them with remotes just to suck up American supplies missiles and stuff. Plus, would expose firing position.

Defending their homeland in another nation that was no threat to them?

Wow! That scores a perfect 10 in mental gymnastics!

Seems like a cheap way to get Ukraine to waste more ammo.

Who here is a historian of Ukrainian history and ethnic groups? The history of the Crimean peninsula alone is enough to make me back off from claiming to know much about what the people of Ukraine and its various regions want, other than to not be pawns in the power struggles of the elite.

I'll put my very unprofessional opinion on the line and say that this won't go very well for the T-55.

I doubt many of them will run much less be combat ready.

The 25mm on a Bradley can cause a catastrophic explosion of a combat loaded T-55, Ukraine is getting a bunch of Bradley’s…..

Is it bad that I read this as Waffle House instead of White House? Might as well be Waffle House, right?

Lets see roll out rust buckets and make Ukraine aka USA waste a few million dollar missiles to destroy T-55s. Kinda think might be smart move.
