I really want to see the T-72MP, T-72-120, T-64BM Bulat in-game.

I wonder what the odds are of Ukraine building a new main battle tank-model from scratch? They’ve got plenty of IFV’s, TD’s, Mortar, AD, etc. vehicles being either modified or produced.
I think the chances are zero in the near future. I think about 15+years before any theoretical new MBT will be produced “en masse”
Just because of economical situation Ukraine on its own is unable to start development at the moment. A few prototypes based on the current chassis (i.e. T-64 or T-80) maybe, but not a full scale production of something entirely new
wait. so there really was a t-34 used?
Yes
did they have ammo for it?
I would grind the tech tree instantly with very advance weapon from both East and West
- Chadian BMP-1U ‘Shkval’ in an army Depot.
- While the BMP-1U isn’t really used by the Ukrainian Army anymore and they only had a few of them, the vehicle and remote Shkval combat module is utilized in several other countries. This variant does not have a thermal imager, it does offset the hindrance through the use of the ZTM-1 30mm autocannon (w/ likely 3UBR8 APDS rounds), KT-7.62mm coaxial machine gun, KBA-117 30mm grenade launcher, and 2x 9M113 Konkurs anti-tank guided missiles (ATGM).
- Later, the Shkval combat module would be upgraded to the Shkval-A standard which received the KLW-1 Thermal Camera, and the ability to utilize the Barrier-212 ATGM system with the RK-2S (tandem-HEAT 800mm of penetration) and RK-2OF missiles. This variant has been known as the BMP-1M or the BMP-1U.

More images of the advanced T-72EA that features more armor protection. The images have another T-72EA evacuating the damaged first one:
I dont know but i think they had the same ammo of T34-85
