    Not sure if this is relevant but the Honeywell engines the abrams uses also overheats badly and can be seen a bazillion miles away on even cheap lumpy thermal imaging.

    Also lol:

    Ukraine counterattacked the Russians rather than falling back to new defense lines for the simple reason that there were no pre-prepared fortifications for their army even though they were supposed to have been built. This has created a significant controversy and there are hints that the money for the materials needed for the fortifications was siphoned off (stolen). Corruption in Ukraine is rampant and despite some efforts to curtail it, it is growing.
