Tank Duels in Ukraine - Analysis

Tanks are undoubtedly a big part of the current war in Ukraine, where both Russia and Ukraine are utilizing a big amount of them to fight the other side. But the footage of actual tank on tank combat appears to be extremely rare.

    At least 1 man survived from the T-64 crew ambushed by the T-80. You can see him running at 4:32. It's interesting that he is running towards the russian tank so even after his tank was hit he didn't know where the enemy was.

    Something I have noticed is there doesn't seem to be massive vehicle actions. No large scale tank on tank ops. Just individual tanks either fighting each other or being hit by ATGMs. I don't know if this is because of the time of the year, it seems to be the mud season, OR no one wants to concentrate their operations for some other reason, maybe artillery concerns. This surprises me since we are not that far from Kursk and the scene of that massive tank and tank battle. Can someone educate me on this?

    If I had to guess: Hardware is scarce on both sides, and there's a subsequent aversion to staking it all on a large battle - the buildup to which can be spotted and countered well in advance by modern surveillance and artillery in concert. Hardware losses cannot easily be replaced as they could by WW2 Soviet tank production, which, aside from being unparallelled to this day, could churn out fighting vehicles that were far less complex and expensive than what's required to be effective today. Quantity over quality seems to be less relevant than ever. Also, the Russians did start the war off with a large scale armoured & mechanised offensive towards Kiev, and we all saw how that turned out.

    The human body can take an incredible amount of damage. Judging by how quick he got out, the doors of his tank must have been open, which probably saved his life by allowing him to not take too much damage from the blast/overpressure. If he indeed didn't got internal damage from the blast, and didn't bled out because of the shrapnels, it is very likely that he survived his burns. But that's a lot of "ifs"

    Very spectacular was the IFV on IFV and IFV on tank battles in the early phase of the war, with that one Ukrainian BTR-4 crew taking out several IFVs and tanks in at least two "gun cam" videos. Then there was a video of autocannon fire at the rear of 2 T-72B3, very likely by a BTR-4 as well, so 30 mm fire. Both tanks were hit in the rear multiple times and iirc abandoned by their crews. There was also some fire and damage that looked like a shot out transmission that leaked a bunch of oil under one of the tanks. You couldn't see the vehicle that fired though, but it was definitely autocannon fire and the info claimed it to be a BTR-4. It happened around the same time as the other incidents I mentioned, when the battle for Mariupol was still raging.

But near miss from point blank distance also makes sense. Gunnar probably saw like part of the track or one armour plate, like 20x20 cm part of the tank from that distance.

    You'd be amused to know that during WWII, despite all allied tanks looking clearly different from German ones, crews on both sides had issues id'ing them, many times leading to their demise, as it's the case on the well known, famous Pershing Vs. Panther video in Köln. The Panther didn't open fire first because they thought the Pershing was German, while being just 100 meters away or less. Otto Carius, a German tank ace, also tells in his book that once he held the order to fire for a second, against the side of a distracted IS-2, simply because he wondered if that was a King Tiger, that could've been captured by the Russians. Anyway, the usual is, this line here is our front, everything that comes towards us is the enemy.

    I suppose the rarity of tank on tank footage is because: 1. The uneven weapons situation in the early phase of the war, with Ukraine relying on light infantry while Russia brought the heavy weapons sledgehammer. In this situation Ukraine would try to preserve their limited number of tanks and only field them in highly targeted operations or very cautious positions instead of aiming for open brawls. 2. The fact that the vast majority of tank knockouts really was scored by ATGMs and artillery. 3. The exceptional lethality of tanks against visible targets, including other tanks. We generally rarely see tanks shooting at any visible target. It's usually fire into concealment or from very long range, because any engagement against a visible target will be over at an instant and is therefore unlikely to be caught on camera. 4. Because both sides rarely publish footage from situations where they use drones to lead ground units. There has been some such footage, but it's clearly only a tiny fraction of how often it's actually used. 5. Because these tanks only have 3 man crew, no passengers, and no integrated means to film footage, so "POVs" are rare. 6. Because tank units have higher opsec than average infantrymen. What we get instead is the easy to film, insensitive footage: 1. Drone attacks or observation of artillery strikes - easy to access the digital footage and little sensitive information is shown, since the enemy already knows where they got struck. 2. Stugna, which is easy to film thanks to its remote control setup. 3. Passengers without active combat role filming from BTRs and BMPs. 4. The occasional helmet go-pro, at a roughly similar rate to tank-mounted go pro footage.

    The increase in caliber in Soviet tanks was not really for APFSDS performance reasons. The energy potential of the 125 is always going to be higher than the 115, it's mainly that the 115's shells were standardized to a more modern design sooner because the older shells had a higher deficit to make up for while the 125's older shell designs were still perfectly fine. The real reason for the size increase, however, was for better high explosive shells. The Soviets placed a very high emphasis on tanks as field artillery and the 125's high explosive shell was so big it could in some cases double as anti-armor, being capable of penetrating the front of a T-34 in tests

    Actually there was a video with a tank duel 3-4 month earlier from Russian side. From LPR, I guess. But it was relatively hard to get idea of what is going on. Guess that's the answer to why there are almost no videos like this. Distance. It is just hard for drone to capture both sides and get a meaningful video. For example that T-80 going front on front with T-64 has a burnt BMP-3 near Ukrainian tank. Which implies that that was a rescue or revenge mission.

    Thing is, that if these tanks were operating within a troop (or platoon), they should be able to radio in a contact report and direct another tank to take the shot. Artillery fire really isn't that big a problem for a closed down tank. Yes, certain modern ammunition can be accurate to within a few metres, but this isn't the kind of accuracy you get from traditional artillery, or rockets, but is what is needed in order to damage a tank. Most artillery kills on tanks are actually mobility kills, in which the track is broken, or otherwise damaged. This is the point at which most crew will bail, because they are now a sitting duck.

After a series of misses from both sides, the T-64 finally gets taken out. I would be curious to opinions as to why both tanks missed at such close range. I recall the missed shots (UFA miss, Rus miss, AFU miss, Rus hit on T-64) going low, striking the ground in front of the opposing tanks. Hope you can find it!

    Good analysis. I'm glad that you are able to track these down and present them to us. As a former tank soldier, I suspect that there are actually very few tank on tank battles happening in this war. It seems to me that most of the heavy armour is being taken out by man portable missiles, because these have a larger range and are far easier to deploy from a camouflaged position. I suspect that the tanks are being used to support the infantry, rather than take on other tanks directly, as would have been the case during a cold war conflict, or the two Gulf Wars. A tank is both noisy and very easy to see on a battlefield, whereas a modern AT infantry section of two, or three troops is the exact opposite. I suspect that the reason that we are seeing more Russian tanks firing on Ukrainian ones is because they have basically depleted their stocks of modern AT weapons, so are forced to rely on tanks, in situations where the Ukrainian infantry can dismount, before reaching out and touching someone from a range that by far exceeds that of any tank gun. Also, the footage being shown really demonstrates that despite there being solid and well established "front lines", the tanks appear to be operating individually and not in troops (platoons), and are not providing each other with supporting fire. This is something, I'd expect from poorly trained crews, so is perhaps indicative of just how many experienced tank soldiers each side has lost since the beginning of the conflict.

    @@MrPool-zn9lz It is impossible for anyone (including the Russians), to know how much viable ammunition is in the system. It is no secret that corruption is endemic and this places an effective blinder over what we can know. All any of us can do is look at what the troops are being issued on the ground. The fact that troops were being issued with ancient 19th Century rifles mere months into the conflict, as opposed to the highly effective AK series of weapons indicates a likely shortage of AK ammunition of various types. And yes, for some unknown reason the Russians have thousands of these and their ammunition in storage. In Australia, we literally threw our old Lee Enfields into the sea, rather than keep ancient rubbish from cluttering our logistics. The fact that there are numerous documented cases of newly mobilised Russian conscripts being issued with rusty weapons indicates a lack of good quality weapons in storage. Similarly, the fact that they are bringing T-62 and T-64 tanks out of storage also indicated significant issues, as the T-72 and later tanks are really the only ones that should be on a modern battlefield and even then, only once they've been upgraded with thermal sights. Similarly, the fact that they are relying so heavily on Iranian drones indicates that they've severely depleted their stocks of ground to ground missiles. This was actually evident months ago, when they started repurposing S-300 launchers into the ground attack role. Also, as I pointed out, the way in which they are using equipment seems to suggest they are lacking in certain weapon categories, such as modern ATGMs. Sure, there are lots of RPG-7s, but you need to get suicidally close to an enemy tank in order to use one. So, while we can't say for sure that the Russians are running out of usable equipment, the evidence points to significant issues within their logistics (what good equipment they have isn't getting where it needs to be) and an ongoing incapacity to supply the modern equipment that their soldiers will need to win on the ground. We'll find out more in the coming months. If, as I expect, the Russians fail to equip properly for winter, we'll know that this is a generalised problem, not just the random chance of certain issues bubbling to the surface, because they make good clickbait.

    @@alexsmart5452 The thing that impressed me was that a 30mm (likely) could take out a main battle tank. Their placement of fuel tanks and their autoloader was such a weak spot in their tanks for so many years and they never bothered to fit them until the T-14 and while the crew survivability of the tanks looks good the rest of the armor on that thing actually looks worse. Any hit not on the crew compart will likely go right through. Of course until they fix their engine and manufacturing issues... and get more money and electronics they might actually start building them.

    4:33 There is 1 person that did get away it seems. Look between the UA tank and the road running away from the tank towards the south. Now, because the huge text I can't see whether this guy was on the rear of the tank or inside it just before the tank got struck. However if you look at 4:29 there is something just behind the tank that seems to be smoking. This is the person that got away from the tank. Now who this person is, probably remains a mystery unless the person comes forth and tells his story.

    I assume these kinds of duals would be very hard to get on video. I think the video of the Ukrainian tank taking out the Russia tank is probably a reenactment that they did for propaganda purposes. Like they called in a drone to video them “finishing it off” even though they just took it out. Since most tank duels are theoretically supposed to take place miles away there may be many that are just impossible to get on video. I’m actually surprised we have so many close range fights, not to mention how many lone tanks there are without being in a squadron.

    Tanks are not meant to fight at close range so being able to get both tanks in one shot would be rare. Much of the footage of vehicles including tanks being blown up in this war could be from artillery or tanks(or mines even), often all one sees is an explosion and that is it and as we can see from the confirmed tank hits on other tanks, it looks pretty similar if not the same to what could be attributed to artillery.

    For the infantry to dismount on the non combat side, Im guessing in the last video given their positions were retreating or ambushed from the rear, and following solid doctrine Infatry dismounted to provide cover for the T64s after the first tank was downed in order to cover them while they secure the area against further advances from Russian Armor / infantry. Given the extremely poor FoV most soviet/russian tanks are known for I wouldnt be surprised that actual tank battles are initiated by drones, or scouts spotting enemy armor first.

    A lesson learned from WW2 is that the cannon, be it mounted on a tank or a truck, is the most viable mobile anti-tank weapon and should be deployed in large numbers to counter enemy tanks. Due to modern tank fleets being smaller than they were during WW2, tanks are considerably less likely to run into each other on the battlefield these days. Also, the tank destroyer (light AFV with cannon) has been replaced with trucks and helios carrying ATGMs, with can respond to concentrated armoured attacks as quickly or faster than tanks themselves. This is significant because ATGMs have a longer effective range than the cannon, dwindling the tank's numbers before they can get within effective range of each other. If the number of tanks on the battlefield increased and/or ATGMs became less viable due to APS, the supremacy of the cannon would return.

    @@nassimnassim6019 I was referencing direct fire anti-tank weapons, that's why I mentioned tanks and tank destroyers, not howitzers. Howitzers are good at damaging and destroying tanks in indirect fire, but the longer the distance to the target the worse the accuracy. If howitzers were the best AT weapon, there would probably be no ATGMs and certainly no direct fire tank cannons firing APFSDS or HEAT. The claimed 10,600m tank kill was said to be accomplished by a Ukrainian tank firing HE in indirect fire. The lack of shell craters surrounding the destroyed tank makes the claim that it was destroyed by arty at 10km unlikely, let alone a tank operating as jerry rigged arty. I mentioned the Spike only to make a point about the capabilities of ATGMs, I did not intend to claim it was being used in Ukraine.
