Sometimes it just takes an insane amount of courage to beat the odds.

I suspect the tank main gun is jammed. The heavy machine gun on IFV is not going to do to much damage on armour of T-72.

you can see the turret turning, but the crew has limited visibility and sudden approach by the IFV caught the crew off guard. In the panic the preferred to run.

Incredible. They are deserving of recognition and medals - IFV guys.

I am surprised why tank didn't shoot??maybe ran out Ammo??

I have to laugh at the tweets in the op tho.
Thats not a "rebel" vehicle,the saa never operated acv15s,that belongs to the turkish army.Unless of course erdo is loaning out armor to the terrorists now.

Probably poor situational awareness, and by the time the IFV outflanked them it was too close to use the main gun. The tank crew were probably inexperienced, and operating alone, they probably panicked.

IDK why people are quick to reach conclusions based on propaganda videos. That too people who don;t ever seen tank warfare from up close and why what they are commenting is not a possibility in any case.

All I saw was an AFV coming to help a tank to get out of the place faster by pushing it and helping it catch speed.
The tanks engine was busted and not working up to the mark which is evident from the smoke from the engine.

Yeah what about puti loaning a whole military to that autism pig asad. He is ofcourse not a terrorist because he killed way more ppl.

LOL!!
Bit of a pathetic joke of an equivalency argument isnt it?,after all regardless of what you or anyone else may think of assad he is still the president of the internationally recognized government of the syrian arab republic,whereas the terrorists are not anything except for,....well...terrorists frankly,and that my friend is one very,very big difference between the two.
The russians and iranians are aiding a friendly allied nation who formally requested their help.Sadly by comparison the turks dont just appear to be arming the terrorists,they appear to be actively fighting side by side with them......unless of course they are just "loaning out" armored vehicles to the terror groups,which would make a pretty big difference compared to the usual guns,rpgs and atgms that governments usually give to terrorists.

By ur logic, saudi arbia is doing a good job, helping the internationally recognized govt, the same goes for libya where Turkey is helping internationally recognized govt. No? Do u even know what is legitimacy? Or the fact that asad lost 90℅ of his country untill puti and ayatoola sent in help. Werent the taliban called as terrorist while now they are legitimate party and in dialogue witg US? It only shows u can toss around the term terrorist whenever it is convenient for u. By the way what about terrorist of eastern ukrain supported by puti? Or the term doesnt fit there?

No,the saudis are attempting to put their pet dictator hadi back in power after he resigned and fled the country in the face of a popular revolution,effectively his government collapsed and he ran away and at that point there wasnt an internationally recognised government any more.Ironically the us,uk and iran all claim to support a diplomatic solution however the question appears to be whether that would simply mean a return to the old dictatorship status quo or some sort of actual democratic government.
Yes,its rather funny that in libya the turks chose to back the internationally recognised government,what a shame that they didnt do that in syria,dont you think?.
Legitimacy relates to how much recognition and support,be it political or other,that you have and from whom.
I dont know where you`re getting this 90% bullsh!t from,it always cracked me up that terrorist supporters would claim that the syrian government had lost control of X amount of territory,while conveniently ignoring that it had retained control over most of the coastal strip where the bulk of syrias population,largest cities and main infrastructure were located,by comparison most of the rest was either empty or sparsely populated areas.Oh,and the syrians requested help from their iranian and russian allies,because thats what governments can do.
When it comes to the taliban the west just cant seem to make up its mind on whether they`re terrorists or not.Its a good example that if a terror group has just enough support and is willing to fight for as long as it takes,assuming that it doesnt get wiped out of course,then perhaps,just perhaps the other side might eventually be willing to negotiate with them to end the war,altho that has so far taken the taliban almost 20 years just to get to this point[]lol!.This scenario however is unlikely to apply in syria.
Well you know what they say "one mans freedom fighter is another mans terrorist"......altho how you can claim that people who go around chopping off heads,running slave markets and chanting "alawites to the grave,christians to beirut" are any kind of "freedom fighter" eludes me.

Not true; even with most experienced tank crew; we found that our ratel tank killers were able to out manouver them and taking them out. In angola we were fighting in a semi arid areas where there were lot of thicket cover. SADF doctrine relegated the tanks out and our core force is made of IFVs - Ratel/Mambas/Buffels - all these of course are getting replaced with Mbombe etc.

Yeah conveniently interpret everything to ur own wishes. Yemen lost legitimacy while same arab spring protests were the cause in syria too, how conveniently u ignored that. It was this animal asad who started using force against protesters and they in return turned violent as well. Do u know about history of syria? Do u know what the father of this pig asad did? U can define legitimacy as u wish, reality is asad have no legitimacy after killing thousands, puti is just using militaty to buy a puppet govt. A puppet that can give it strayegic depth in the Mediterranean. Turkey is rightfully defending its borders as it is facing millions of refugees, at same time faced with pkk terrorists.
