Russia's AFV nobody talks about: MT-LB (& MT-LBu)

The Russian MT-LB is a vehicle that gets almost no coverage although it is a very important vehicle in the Russo-Ukrainian War. This is reflected by the total number of vehicles, but also by the loss numbers as well. It is the Workhorse of the Russian Army, but also other forces as well.

But what's true for all of the variants: it's probably the cutest armored vehicle I know. Its face has two big eyes and it kind of smiles.
