According to the Red Star, Russian experts, after carefully examining the Western made military equipment captured by the Russian army during the Ukrainian war, said that they did not find anything "super interesting".
Sergei Chemezov, head of Rostec, said this.
The experts of this state-owned company studied all the equipment that fell into the hands of the Russian military, saying that western designers could not surprise us with anything. As Chermezov said, nothing new was seen in these equipment.
Earlier, some western publications expressed different views: if these western armored vehicles fall into Russia's hands, Russia will learn all the secrets and be able to further develop, thus enriching their own technology. Therefore, the West is removing advanced devices from the equipment and weapons provided to Ukraine.

In fact, the West has made it clear when handing over weapons and equipment that it will not give the latest equipment to Ukraine, and even the active equipment is very few. Basically, it will give obsolete or retired equipment.
For example, most of the tanks are models before the 1990s. For example, the American M1A1 main battle tank has been eliminated after the Gulf War, and there is no independent observation and aiming system for the vehicle commander, let alone the popular "hunting and annihilation ability".
The M2A2 infantry fighting vehicle is slightly better. Although it is also the equipment eliminated by the US military, it has been upgraded to some extent. However, these improvements are also very limited. After all, the US military has now equipped more advanced M2A4 infantry combat vehicles.

Previously, Ukraine withdrew the US made M1A1 main battle tank from the front line, on the grounds that it would further strengthen the protection of such tanks to better adapt to the battle on the front line.
In fact, the number of M1A1 main battle tanks is limited, and its symbolic significance is much greater than the operational significance. With M1A1, it can be seen that the United States is supporting Ukraine. However, this kind of old "Abrams" MBT has lost its glory in the Gulf War. Four of the five "Abrams" MBTs invested in the first round of operations were destroyed. It was very painful for Ukraine, so it had to withdraw the last "Abrams" MBT from the battle.
Therefore, it is really difficult for Russian experts to find anything too amazing from these seized Western equipment.
However, it is too much to say that these equipment are useless! After all, even the design of the overall structure is worth learning for designers. In addition, the advanced electronic equipment of the US military is also not available in Russia. If it is not damaged before being captured, it is still valuable. In addition, the optical aiming system, two-way stability system, etc. are also the superior products of the West, which are very meaningful for improving the operational performance of Russian tanks!
