Hello. Which source was used to point to it being trialed? I cannot find it.

I will have to side with my colleague @SoyBeanInhaler here.
I did some quick checking myself. East Germany owned and physically operated 3 T-72 variants. T-72, T-72M and T-72M1. It did order T-72S and MAYBE has trialed it, but the evidence is sketchy and no image of the vehicle in East Germany is available.
If you want a non copy-paste T-72 then it should be the T-72 base export Ural.

Page 118: “Individual examples of this vehicle could indeed have entered the East German Army.”

+1 I’m always down for more late cold war tanks, I’m also a sucker for the T-72 😂
