@@Tankspotting Finnland was neutral during cold war, right? So they were dealing with both sides and using weapons from both sides too? T-72M1 is very poor tank, you would die in that in 2 minutes, such developed country as Finnland with low population should have something which is more safe for crew than soviet tanks. But I know that western tanks are much heavier, maybe finns needed ligher tanks for some reason (snow, riding or ice or something?). Here in Czech Republic, infrastructure before 1989 was made on purpose to break under heavy western tanks, but today modernised T-72 are not that light anymore, we have only like 30 of T-72M4CZ, rest of our tanks are not modernised T-72M1 and that's really poor tank for modern war. Soviets didn't allow other countries to have the best armor, their T-72A and B have some hi-tech composite armor, but export variant M1 is simple steel, it's really unsafe for crew.
Several Reasons but the main two are: During WW2 Finland was apart of the Axis til 1944, When Finland was apart of the Axis Pact they captured soviet tanks such as the 76mm and 85mm armed T-34s, BT Tanks and even an ISU-152 before it was abandoned but they also recieved tanks from Germany such as Pz IV Js, and StuGs. Second reason is during the Cold War, Finland was neutral and so bought equipment from both the West and East.
@@Pidalin Finnish Armed Forces stopped using T-72 tanks when we bought Leopard 2's from the Netherlands, the T-72's were either scrapped or sold to the Czech Republic by 2007, or placed in a museum as you can see in this video from Parola Armour Museum.

Why do Finns have soviet tanks? It doesn't make sense to me.
Good tanks and those could be purchased with very good trade deals.
