Okay, so... They didn't do any deactivation at the museum it seems. Put a new battery in and start to ride a WWII tank. Very convenient.

I only see one problem: where to get ammunition and what happens when you encounter any modern vehicle with at-assets?

I do not think have been reactivated for military purposes. Or yes?

Its great for rolling hard cover and a mobile road block, not to mention the intimidation factor when it comes around the corner.

I've been watching and reading lots of stuff on this situation and to be honest I don't know who is right and who is wrong anymore. It has been a major headache trying to sift through all the propaganda to find the truth.

Sounded like it was "running" on two cylinders at best. Likely to become a road block itself.

These were posted on the Battlefront forum... It seems they have actually moved the IS-3 somewhere.

I think the rebels said something alongs the linens of these tanks will fight fascism once more and why the tanks were still in working condition is beyond me
