Seems like they got them stuck on purpose in order to practice recovery of them.. The support units have been put to test in the exercise, engineers have practicing on building bridges, clearing mines (https://twitter.com/johansutinen/status/911739895034544128 ) etc.

They sure did a hell of a job to get that tank deep in........bullcrap. 


What the heck happened to this one?  Did it go subterranean?

I had to look at it twice to figure out the assend from the front end. 

Yeah but that camouflage job really offsets the desert colors.

That may confused the enemy with all the earth on top of the tank.  They will be firing HE instead AP rounds.

Hey Save, look! They are still alive! (the IKV 91 have been retired for a long time but someone thought it would be fun to give the airborne enemy some armor..
