They have to say something. Forbes has been publishing shit like:

You can find old Soviet T-62 tanks in museums all around the world, but the Ukrainians are increasingly capturing them on the battlefield. This is an indicator of just how deeply Russia is having to dig into reserves of old vehicles, and the situation is far worse than you might imagine.

So now that Ukraine is using T-55 tanks, they have to be “super upgraded”. Western MSM exists to manipulate and control, not inform.
