How to Fight the Soviet T-64 and T-72 Tanks (Movie)

Cold War movie produced for US armed forces. Poor quality but worth watching.

Tales of arm-eating autoloaders are largely overplayed. Early T-64 autoloaders were ineffectively shielded, but that was corrected. You can see the T-64 autoloader working here at ~1:45. Note that the shields extend past the backs of the crew.
