Talk:T-10 tank

message: A duplicate of this article (I think) allready exsisted at Iosef Stalin tank. I'm no expert on tanks but from what I gather these are the same things. One should be merged into the other. I reccomend the stalin tank be moved here, but what do I know. Also the histories may need to be merged. I'd like some input from someone who knows anything about these tanks.

replies: text: They are related but different things, the T-10 was the finally development of that tank line. In this case I think it is better to have this as a seperate rather then with others. Muchenhaeser 21:46, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)

message: T-10s (like the IS tanks they replaced) were deployed in independent tank regiments belonging to armies, and independent tank battalions belonging to divisions. These independent tank units could be attached to mechanized units, to support infantry operations and perform breakthroughs.
Thi is not exactly right. Until 1955 heavy tanks were a part of the tank divisions as one of three line tank regiments. Between 1955 and 1958 the regiments were regrouped into eight heavy tank divisions. These divisions were disbanded in early 1960s and individual battalions were assigned to Fortified Regions mostly along the chinese border at a rate of four battalions (four companies each) per region. Because there were insufficient number of heavy tanks, some T-34-85s were also used.--Mrg3105 02:34, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Use of 

message: How many T-10s were built after all? The infobox says 8,000, but it also says in the production history section that some 6000 Soviet heavy tanks were built after WWII (including IS-2, IS-3 and T-10).
:I deleted the "8,000+", other sources claim only about 2,500 T-10s, there was no source for the 8,000+ claim and the conflict with the text was unacceptable. 22:26, 14 September 2012 (UTC)

thread_title: Names

message: 1. Introduction.
The T-10 is not the development of a line of tanks KV, the line breaks in the KV-85.
While the name changes the line never breaks through the KV-13, the first heavy tank after the KV-13 was the IS-1(Object 233) and IS-2(Object 234) both of which were on the KV-13 chassis(The IS-2 even used the KV-9 turret). The demand for new firepower eventually lead to the IS-3(original IS-1 prototype) and the IS-4(IS-1 with 107mm) and so on. Pharoahjared (talk) 19:46, 28 January 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: Funny article, with lots of bugs :)

message: There isn't any proof that the T-10 was ever exported to other countries, neither that it fought in the Six Day War neither Yom Kippur War. According to the SIPRI Trade Register, only IS-3 was exported and used in these wars (in total 370 IS-3 tanks exported) but not a single T-10.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by RiccardoTheBeAst (talk • contribs) 16:53, 10 August 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: T-10 export and combat actions

message: The Revision as of 22:32, 10 January 2019 by MTWEmperor changed the service time of this tank from 1953-1996 to 1953-present (sources vary.) What sources?
I am having trouble believing any of these tanks still serve in the Russian or South Oessetian forces as both declared them retired. Other former users of Egypt and Syria are already debated in this talk page and thus I would believe them to be retired if they ever were used. And surely the unrest in Syria would have exposed any working models as other late Cold War and WW2 equipment was brought back into the sun to do battle. Also highly doubtful Egypt would be using T10 tanks alongside M1A1 tanks. 2603:7080:4342:C00:24BB:99C7:B2E5:195A (talk) 21:15, 17 August 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  In service date 

message: There has been a video released on twitter about the tank possibly being used by the Russian armed forces, yet this source doesn't seem adequate to fully make that claim. Right now I have added the "(possibly) in service" as a temporary solution, but it would be extremely helpfull if anyone could find the original video/source. (or any other source of it being used for that matter.) DukeLeotheFirst (talk) 22:04, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I've removed it entirely, the source fails WP:SPS and there's speculation on the ex-bird website that it might not even be a genuine video. And even if it was, there's no context to the video that supports it being actually in service anyways. ansh.666 23:45, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Err, didn't notice that it was there in the section before. Restored the "retired" bit. ansh.666 23:50, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

text: I've seen multiple reports that it's a pretty decently done CGI as well, as such I removed the 2023 thing in the "in service" section of the infobox. If there's ever solid proof in the future that it's in use then that's great, otherwise it's definitely a good decision that you guys are erring on the side of caution with this.

replies: text: Yep, I've been doing the same and now regard the video as mostly false. What bothers me the most is people changing the dates without even adding any references at all.  DukeLeotheFirst (talk) 07:48, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Just heads up, another video appeared that shows a tank that looks A LOT like T-10 in action. This time the video is real, but the tank is probably too blurry to definitively confirm. https://x.com/Maks_NAFO_FELLA/status/1704902183886454807?s=20 Javelinbellbottoms (talk) 18:44, 21 September 2023 (UTC)

replies: text: As long as there is no definitive evidence, this service life should not be altered on the wikipage. We have yet to see any other proof other than that weird twitter video, so just assuming this because Russia has been using other older equipment in the war is not enough to support the claim of it being back in service.
