It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

By Russia's own reporting, they had not managed to deliver 40 production T-14s by the end of 2022, citing the need for further testing and difficulties with manufacture.
If the Russian Army does have hundreds of T-14s, there's not really any reason to keep them secret, and I think we would would have seen footage of them in combat by now.
thats 2022, military manufacturing in general has skyrocketed since then in Russia to keep up with their shell consumption. they have plenty of reason to hide them. why waste these top tier tanks on Ukraine when they are easily holding their defensive lines?
Shell manufacturing and electronics and vehicle manufacturing are two very different things and the former can be scaled much more quickly and easily than the latter.
