"Alright guys uhm, I give up. I don't know when I'll govern again... I really need to win this fuckin' war, I really wanted to get this fuckin' NATO membership man. I wanted it so fuckin' bad! HUAE! I just can't do it! I can't TAKE THIS SHIT no more man! All I wanted to do was like I was fuckin' lonely I wanted to just fuckin' run Ukraine and have a good time and have a good country. I hate my life.

Sorry, I get like 8 replies on here from angry Republicans every time I mention Trump isn't the perfect messiah they think he is.

Why would he? He was waiting for the perfect time. If it was just because Biden is in charge, why didn't he do it a year ago? Or 6 months ago? That's like asking why did Hitler wait until 1939 to invade Poland
There's a chance that Trump would've done something moronic when seeing all the intel reports about Russian troops on the border, much like his rash action of assassinating the Iranian general.
Also why is now the perfect time? If you're so confident that Trump was a Putin stooge, then the perfect time would've been anytime between 2017 and 2021. It takes time to mobilize your whole army and if Putin didn't want to invade under Trump, he couldn't have started preparations until Trump was out of the WH. Invading a year or 6 months ago wouldn't have been possible under that prerequisite.
The only reason Trump gets brought up in all of this is the left claiming endlessly that Putin won't do anything now that Biden is in charge, that Biden is 8 steps ahead of him etc. all to amount to Russia taking Ukraine in a week. Now after their hero Biden didn't end up with some great genius plan to save Ukraine, they're back at trying to boomerang it to Trump.

Big ups liquid Zelensky
 
Wikipedia says a test batch of 100 T-14s will go out to a unit this year but only after the completion of all state tests. Perhaps they aren't involved in the fighting just yet?

Edit: Didn't see the post from @CognitiveDeficiency so forget what I just typed.

I'm sure there's some there being used for testing purposes to see how they work out compared to the newer T90s.

In the beginning of this, I thought if nothing else this war would be a good idea of how near peer-to-peer fighting has evolved since the Cold War, but every destroyed tank filmed so far is either Ukrainian or Russian depending on what your political slant is.
