It should be added that most of the teams competing in the Tank Competition (except China) have T-72 tanks in their army. Laos has just fitted T-72 tanks since 2018, and Myanmar has more than 130 T-72 tanks since the 2000s. Therefore, these teams do not take the time to familiarize themselves with and master this type of vehicle when competing.

The Vietnamese team at the time was still using the T-54 tank for practice, so it was a bit more difficult.

Recently, our army has purchased T-90S tanks from Russia, which is an improved and deeply modernized variant of the T-72 tank line. If you use the T-90 for practice, it can also be a solution to improve the skills of soldiers participating in tank competitions in Russia for years to come.
