The Fascinating History Of This Tank
There is no doubt that the story behind the Soviet tank he ended up buying from eBay is an interesting tale. The tank might have been Soviet in design, but it was made in China and then used in Iraq by the army under the command of the infamous Saddam Hussain. Tanks were subjected to extensive use in the Iran-Iraq war that spanned 8 years and killed hundreds of thousands of people. After the war ended in a stalemate, Iraqi tanks were then used for the invasion of Kuwait. At this point in history, Iraq stole countless treasures from the rich nation in the Persian Gulf. Many of those priceless objects were transported by tanks.
