−	The T-80BVM MBT is currently being employed by Russian forces in the ongoing conflict with Ukraine. Apart from its role in this conflict, the T-80BVM hasn't had many opportunities for combat experience. Nonetheless, its deployment in Ukraine highlights its capabilities and effectiveness in contemporary warfare. The Russian military has long relied on the T-80 series for its firepower, mobility, and reliability. As the conflict progresses, the performance of the T-80BVM and its adaptation to the evolving battlefield will provide valuable insights for future military operations and the continued modernization of Russia's armored forces.

	As mentioned above, the T-80BVM also benefits from the typical low silhouette Russian tankers will be accustomed to, with the vehicle being significantly smaller than its competitors. This allows the T-80BVM to be hidden behind small terrain deformities which other MBTs would otherwise be visible. It's also harder for an enemy tank commander to immediately tell which area is the most vulnerable.
