Syria – 500 were ordered in 1973 from the Soviet Union and delivered between 1973 and 1974. 200 ordered in 1978 from Libya were delivered in 1979 as aid. 300 were ordered in 1982 from the Soviet Union and delivered between 1982 and 1984 (the vehicles were previously in Soviet service).[25] This country had 1,000 T-62Ms and T-62Ks in service in 1990, 1995, 2000, 2001 and 2003 and around 1,000 in 2005.[47]Russia doesn't use them anymore, so they can just haul them out from some surplus depot and with much effect use them in Syria, where the soldiers know these tanks. Against mainly 4x4 Toyotas they will be most efficient.
Self-absorption in all its forms kills empathy, let alone compassion.
OK So they intentionally or accidently (allegedly) released a virus that was about as dangerous as a moderate flu, with some severe consequences...
global warming goodness!

1942's Battle of Kursk proved the superiority of the far easier to mass produce Soviet Tanks, (mostly T34's which were still being used in the 1950-53 Korean War, and even later than that in the wars siince its creation.)
So note the names on the Tanks above: The T62's and 72's were first produced in those years and are still working well. Note the contrast between the US's over expensive weaponry which has been bankrupting each of us since we were born. (And I grew up a proud child of the Military Industrial Complex, with both parents as Engineers, though my Mum worked on the theoretically non-military shuttle, my father's Titan IIIc's mostly launched military satellites, which usually go on polar orbits so that by adjusting their speed, can ensure they can fly over any portion of the earth in a matter of hours.
There was a study on the cost spent by Russia saving Syria from US sponsored/controlled destruction, a la Libya, and the difference in costs were by orders of magnitudes, proving Orwell's point in 1984 that the purpose of modern war is to ensure that the benefits of the mechanization of mankind would never reach the proles, but would be lost or wasted in war, keeping the masses too stupid to realize that they'd been taken.
Just FYI, on how far the US has in truth fallen, during our lifetimes, resulting in the children from our generation being the first in US history since the South in the civil war to have it worse than their parents did... But too many are happy in their slavery to realize it.

*The aerial warfare branch of the combined military forces in Germany in WWII, Wehrmacht military forces during World War II . Similarly, in the US, the Air Force was under control of the Army then and until 1947, in the same law that created the CIA from the OSS.**
** Note that I am sure that that 1947 National Security Act, 13 pages of statute, was well thought out and well fought over, as it should have been. In sharp contrast, the rapidly instituted and enforced Patrioshit act, (about nine times larger 113 pages - not including thousands of pages of regulations that were also 'ready to go") had not even been read by most Members of Congress and obviously would have taken an army of lawyers about 4 years, at a minimum, to merely create, was approved without any effective debate - as silenced by genetically modified - and of proven US Military manufacture 'weaponized' anthrax, with nano scale sized spores, each holding identical - and therefore repulsive - magnetic charges to ensure both maximum aerial dispersion and human-exposure) delivered to legislators who might have objected or merely even asked for time to attempt to read the massive piece of sh*t - oops, I mean - 'legislation.'
