Russian-designed tanks roll toward Aberdeen Proving Ground in Maryland to aid Ukraine, boost U.S. intelligence

One Russian-designed tank was noticed in April during the two-day stint it spent at a Louisiana truck stop that doubles as a casino. The other was spotted at a Utah gas station in May. Both behemoths were headed to the same place: Aberdeen, Maryland. As the United States and other NATO countries support Ukraine in its war against Russia, a military post in the Northeast Maryland city of 17,000 could prove to be a valuable resource.
