Close-up view of T-72 Main Battle Tank

Here we see the T-72 Main Battle Tank from close to the front of the tank, showing the raised roof over the driver's position (with one metal leg clearly visible), and the V shaped spash guard designed to keep the driver's periscope clear of obstructions.

Picture from the author's collection. The tank is in the collection of the very impressive Bovington Tank Museum
