About This File
This is the T-72B, which began production in 1985. In the late 80's the Soviets adopted a 3 color camo, similiar to MERDC camo. Production T-72B's were painted in an overall Soviet olive drab No 2, with swaths of light sand and blotches of black. This unit carries the 2nd Guards Tamanskaya MRR insignia, from a plate in the T-72 Main Battle Tank 1974-1993 New Vanguard book. In the book the 3 color looks very brown and drab but I have included a more traditional dark green camo version also.
