Russian T-90 Tank From Ukraine Mysteriously Appears At U.S. Truck Stop

he folks at Peto’s Travel Center and Casino in Roanoke, Louisiana see all kinds of vehicles pull up, but Tuesday night was different. What ended up in their parking lot is certainly something of a mystery, to say the least.

Someone left a Russian T-90A tank, which open source intelligence (OSINT) trackers say was captured by Ukraine last fall, on a trailer after the truck hauling it broke down and pulled into this truck stop off U.S. Interstate 10. An employee at Peto's, and the individual who first posted the images on Reddit, shared them with The War Zone.

The T-90A is modern by Russian standards, having been introduced two decades ago, which makes its puzzling voyage from battlefield Ukraine to a truck stop in Louisiana all the more difficult to make sense of.

Lol. Now we see what the venal Ukes are doing with captured Russian equipment. It’s no wonder that the Ukes are low on ammo. They sell it faster than NATO can ship it.

Yeah, right. I’m always leaving tanks unattended.
More likely that the Rooskies are planning to invade Louisiana.

It has Wehrmacht markings to it’s probably from the Ukraine’s inventory of captured Russian tanks.

Yes, they share intel and captured Russian equipment with the US.
