    @.33 secs in, that's an interesting view of the frame of the tank. it looses is solidity as this tough tank, its just thick pieces of metal bolted to a frame. I remember from many years ago, the T34 was famous for its sloping armour. a 40mm thick section of steel on the slope becomes 80mm thick, effectively. Great work as usual Joe and the gang.

    Занялись бы лучше поиском и восстановлением танков Т-28. Многобашенных средних танков, серийных танков Советской армии конца 30-х годов.
    В одной только Финляндии их утопло в болоте почти 30 штук. В результате советско-финской войны 1940 года.
    Ни в одном музее мира их нет, ни в коллекциях.
    А ведь танк уникальный. В 1941 году летом, один танк атаковал гарнизон столицы Беларуси, и прямо в столице устроил разгром. Прорываясь из окружения.
    На сегодня есть только 5 таких танков, и только один на ходу - в Нижней Пышме, Россия.
    Два не на ходу, и в плачевном состоянии, а танковом музее Народа (Финляндия). Один на постаменте Центральном музее Вооруженных сил, в Москве. И ещё один, в музее танков в Кубинке.

    Thanks for the video. Those turret bolts being loose is probably a bit of a pressure relief valve. Having worked on Belarus tractors since about 1994 that would be their logic. if the tank got hit the blast pressure bled off just lifting the turret instead of blowing it clean over a hedge. Thus aiding for a quick repair just welding a plate over the entry hole pressure wash it out and send it back to work. That wiring looks exactly like the same junk they had on tractors up until the late 90's , and I'm pretty sure I've seen those lights on some tractors in the past to L.O.L Take care.
