Updated the tank to include the "T-62M 1972" tag (it refers to the base T-62 that was upgraded to the M variant, the 1972 one is identifiable with the loaders cupola and HMG)
Added the tags; tanks red_army naval_infantry storage_facility (naval_infantry is new, this T-62MV was used in the naval infantry which was common place in the 80s).

great job with tags- is there a better way to tag this "character?" Having one character with two-equal level tags feels a bit imperfect.

Many thanks. I picked this up by chance while going through an old thumb drive I had - tried the best I could with what I could glean from the picture itself.

Removed the T-72 tag, replaced with the T-90 tag. Though the Object 187 and 188 were originally upgrades to the T-72B, theyre vastly different enough to be different and eventually it turned into the T-90 series, thus the tag.

That is actually a T-72... T-72BM to be exact. the image comes from UVZ 80th Anniversary book.
Refer to my source for the matter, as thats my main argument point for it being moreso a T-90 than a T-72, among some others including (but not limited to) its relation to the Object 187 and what that vehicle was during its development, as well as what it turned into.
I recommend joining the discord server and pinging me (@drago7106og, nickname "Anna") if you want to talk further about the topic to clear up any confusion!
The early T-90s are a nuanced topic, and imo neither of us is wrong here, I just think the T-90 is more accurate.

It dosenโt matter if itโs closer to a T-90 or a T-72, the image is of a tank called โImproved T-72Bโ, and you are wrong if you call it T-90.

I think the way to solve this (and similar cases) is adding another tag like "t-series_russia_experimental" since the topic is too nuanced to be discussed fully in comments, as neither of us are wrong and "Object 188" could just be its stand-alone thing under that new tag. Theres various sources that state its a T-72B, but also that its a T-90 due to its changes, and tagging both isnt really possible when someone comes around (most likely me or another T-tank fan) to make the implications for the newer tags. Let me know what you both thing about it.
Unusually common vehicle class (if you can call it that) as the rectangle at the bottom is included with a functional turret as a stationary training rig, though repurposed for combat in more dire situations. Great post!
