In an sad turn of events for the viewing public, Russia may be switching to T62s:
Russia to Prepare Soviet Era T-62M Tanks to Replenish Reserves | Defense Express
Due to high losses Kremlin is forced to replenish reserves with obsolete equipment including T-62M tanks
The T-62 is an upgrade on the T-55, which means it does not have the autoloader we all know makes tank videos 100% more exciting. So no more carousel of entertainment directly below the turret floor.
The T-62 stores its ammo in the crew compartment in the rear of the turret, and in its fuel tanks. Kind of like the Sherman wet storage system, but with fuel rather then the Sherman's fire extinguishing agent. So instead of the turret launch videos we are used to, we are going to be downgraded to fountains of flame.
At 25 mph and a bit under armored, it also seems likely we will see less media content over all, as the tank is not likely to live long enough for the drone to film it.
All in all, a sad turn of events for both the viewing public and Russian conscripts.

Scary thought when they are down to nothing except their nukes.
