t-80b and t-80bv mbts were never used in afghanistan in the 1980s to maintain the tank's characteristics secret, but they were first used during the first chechen war. this first real combat experience for t-80 mbts was unsuccessful, as the tanks were used for capturing cities, a task for which they were not very well suited. the biggest tank losses were suffered during the ill-fated assault on the city of grozny. during the two-days battle for the railway station, more than 450 chechen terrorists were killed. during three months of combat, 84 t-80 tanks were used. the 133rd tank battalion used 53 t-80s and lost 12 of them. the 3rd tank battalion used 31 t-80s and lost 6 of them. the forces selected to capture grozny were not prepared for such an operation, while the city was defended by, among others, veterans of the soviet–afghan war. the t-80 tanks used in this operation either did not have reactive armour (t-80b) or they were not fitted with explosive inserts before the start of the operation (t-80bv), and the t-80 crews lacked sufficient training before the war.
