Crack Russians gave it up in good condition. It's now on its way to the US for our guys to pick it apart. It looks a lot like a 20 foot TEU container.


I saw that wondered why they didn't put thermite grenades on top of it before they left it sitting there.

Heck, we had thermite grenades issued so that we could burn our secure transceivers back in the 1970's. The armor and artillery units were issued thermite grenades so that they could pull the pin and drop it down the barrel onto a closed breech to weld it solid shut and unusable. The Russians soldiers seem to be poorly trained and there doesn't appear to be any NCO leadership anywhere near the tip of the spear.
