  • Russian media has reported that the new T-14 tank has seen combat in Ukraine.
  • But Ukraine's military intel chief says Ukrainian forces haven't seen any T-14s in action.
  • It's possible the T-14 has been used, but the war has tarnished the reputation of Russian tanks.

It wasn't long ago when Western experts feared that Russia's T-14 Armata tank would leave Western tanks in the dust. But Ukrainian intelligence says its forces have yet to see the Armata in action, despite Russia committing other advanced weapons to the conflict.
