When the war in Ukraine started, Ukrainian defenders found themselves converting civilian cars and other commercial items into weapons of war. These technicals, battle buggies and modified drones helped the initially outgunned forces repel assaults on Kyiv and central Ukraine. Now well into the second year of the war and Russia is now also utilizing its own Frankenstein’s Monster-type weapons platforms.
Take, for instance, this T-55 tank fitted with a 57mm S-60 cannon.
As stated, a 57 mm S-60 cannon of the 1950 model on the chassis of the T-55 tank in Russian service somewhere in Ukraine."...
