The Army often states officers must lead from the front or motivate from the front---or the motto for years at the Infantry Officers School---follow me---but this is interesting. Ukrainian Chief of Staff in his own tank leading a frontal tank assault.

I seriously doubt we could get the American JCoS General Dempsey or the Army Chief of Staff into a tank and lead a tank charge facing RGP and Russian anti tank missile fire.

The T64 is a surprisingly stable tank platform--article says that with the retroactive armor some tanks took ten hits are more and kept attacking.
