Maiden Soviet Russia

I was randomly channel surfing the night before and caught a show about tanks. I was about to change channel when I noticed the talking head of the moment was Bruce Dickinson; who was listed as “Rock Star, Tank Buff”. The above clip is from the same program where he drives a Russian T-34 around. I had the sound down, but I am assuming it was in English when I watched it.

    Are we still building tanks? They seem so outdated, like a fucking halberd. They just seem like giant toys for nostalgic fucks to play with in the name of regime change. I’m sure there are still solid arguments out there for some goddamn scenario, like “keeping peace” in the west bank or whatever, but it seems like there would be much more effective “drone” technology at this point.

    That’s some pretty tough headgear, Bruce. I can’t think of a more appropriate chapeau for a metal demigod.
