Ukrainian Armour and Fighting Vehicles
Prior to the invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Russia was believed to have one of the largest and most effective tank armies in the world. Consisting of modernised T-72s, T-80s and the latest T-90s operating in combined arms groups, Russian forces were expected to decimate all that came before them. However, exactly the opposite happened, and Western observers have been surprised at just how poorly the Russian military has performed.
In contrast, alongside utilising vehicles produced by its own national tank manufacturers, the Ukrainian military has expertly repaired and repurposed Russian military equipment abandoned on the battlefield to its advantage.
Supplementing its own weaponry are battle tanks and armour supplied by Western allies, initially mostly former Warsaw Pact countries such as Poland and the Czech Republic, which have formed the formidable, albeit eclectic, inventory now possessed by the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
Illustrated with striking images, this book defines the tanks, self-propelled artillery and armoured vehicles currently (or on their way to being) in use in Ukraine, and examines how Russian forces have faced such increasing losses.

Why Buy Direct
A magazine that truly inspires
I’ve been reading Airliner World for as long as I can remember. A magazine that truly inspires, with great articles and beautiful pictures.

Best on the market
I’d say Airfix Model World is the best on the market. Well laid out, well written and plenty of diversity. Definitely the magazine the others strive to beat
Tim H
Most technically accurate railway magazine
Modern Railways is the most technically accurate railway magazine in the business and with writers of the calibre of Ford, Walmsley and Willias, what is not to like?
Graham H
Gets better every year
I have almost every issue of FlyPast and it gets better every year. Great detailed articles and enjoyable stories in each issue
David L
Spectacular imagery
Between the spectacular imagery and timely articles, I can think of no better magazine related to modern military aviation than Combat Aircraft

Subscribing since the 80's!
I started buying Aeroplane Monthly in ‘76 or ‘77. By the early 80’s I bought a subscription and I still have it. I love the magazine.
