Bring out the paint and get that silhouette on that bad boy.

@Wilshire Bradley destroying T-90M, Humvee being struck by a tank but with crew surviving, can we actually declare Russian tanks just done for already? All the US and allies need to do is to simply supply Ukraine with more of what was already sent, and combined with the F-16s they could start a new counteroffensive successfully.

Well, they have a lot of tanks, for once. What's more, there is no 'simply' when it comes to multinational procurements, or else Ukraine would already have received F-16s & friends.
But yeah, when you look at it from the outside, it's hard not to feel aghast at how seemingly close Ukraine could be to winning this, if only their partners did these few things.

For anyone who doesn't get the significance, these crazy cats took out a modern main battle tank with an armored personnel carrier. That's like if the Bismark was sunk by the Titanic.
Infantry Fighting Vehicle not APC.
Still impressive since they liked with the autocannon instead of the anti tank missiles M2 can be equiped for that purpose.
Yeah, that's the official name, but I'll stick to the APC designation. It carries troops. It's armored. It does not have a tank-level main gun. It's an armored personnel carrier. A good one, but an APC, none the less.
With the chaingun, nonetheless.
You'd think they'd use the anti-tank rocket to kill the tank. Not the chaingun.
Wait they killed it with the gun? I saw the video but assumed they had used one of the rockets. I had no clue it was even possible to make a T-90 (or any MBT) explode like that from the gun alone.
