	Can anyone out there give me a complete, but not too technical
list of the tanks built by the Soviets since the T72? (Types of gun,
engine, armour etc.)

	I have heard of T80's, T86's and T90's, how many of these 
actually exist, and how many are the product of fertile imaginations?

	For instance, is the T80 just a T72 with reactive armour (as
seen in the ITN footage of the recent unrest in Lithuania)? Or is it
something else entirely?

	Thanks in advance. If it has been discussed before send email
to the address below.

				Mike.
