Soviet Tank Repair in WW2

Soviet Tank Repair is rather obscure, yet important topic. The video discusses how vulnerable tanks actually were, what the average repair rate was, rewards for repairing tanks, terminology on losses, a case study and many other topics. This video includes also footage from Museums and tank related events like Tankfest 2019.

Good to add this practical matter to stories. Have you any plans to give similar coverage to crew losses?

...and what about opposition using the enemy's tanks (and other gear): Was that extra hazardous from all causes, including of course capture and vengeful actions.

what exactly do you mean? You mean using captured tanks? As far as I know that was quite common. One hazard that was there was capturing abandoned vehicles, I remember at least one Wehrmacht article that warned about booby traps in abandoned vehicles.
