The Armed Forces of Ukraine boast a variety of tanks, both domestic and Western-made. Despite the abundance of modern anti-tank weapons, tanks remain a formidable force on the battlefield. They are utilized by the Ground and Air Assault Forces, the Marine Corps, and units of the National Guard. A tank crew must function as a cohesive unit, as the success of combat missions often depends on the teamwork and coordination of its members. Therefore, the crew must understand each other implicitly. Depending on the type of tank, the crew consists of either three or four tankers – the tank commander, the driver-mechanic, the gunner-operator, and if necessary, the loader. During the repair of combat vehicles, crews from other tanks or repair unit personnel may be called upon for assistance. In heavy combat on various fronts, Ukrainian tankers bravely fulfill their military duty, skillfully leveraging the combat qualities of tanks – armor, speed, firepower, and maneuverability.
