You can not be honest while saying the T-80U is better then the M1 Abrams. It is impossible.

I could never say that a T-80 is better than an MIAI abrams and not keep a straight face......now get into a debate on the M-16 vs AK-47 and we have a debate, both good guns with different emphasis on different charactoristics.
AK-47 is a sledge hammer that can shoot through trees and is deadly up close but us inaccurate while the M-16 is very accurate, lightweight but needs a little TLC to keep it in the fight.

Penetration power isn't determined by the over all energy delivered but by the ammount of energy per squared unit of measurment among other things.

The best way to keep sanity is not provoking either side. It matters not which tank is better. I dont think Russia or the US will ever come to such a situation as to fight each other.

That much of sanity does prevail with both govt, even if not on this forum.

Most of them came over with the sole intent of trolling.

If they did, then it is really unfortunate. May I request the Russians, lets exchange ideas and not fight. As they say, an Ill wind bears no good.

There were probably a total of ten of them, not including multiple registrations. Only 2 of them are banned at present, there is nothing stopping the others from posting.
