At this site (it seems like a kinda crappy image site; too many add!):

and Russian export models seem overly-represented

Gettin' some at a tank graveyard north of Chariker.  Some arfcommers will recognize it.  There was a ton of shit there, the Russians abandoned a couple tank divisions there.

I was there first! Gettin up in my sloppy seconds I see. I'll post some pictures from there in a little bit. The other side of the COP had more of the BMPs and BTRs. Some neat stuff around there. The old Soviet tank repair depot in town right down the road was a neat place too, no tanks left except the Soviet made monument with a T62 turret on a pedestal inside the compound.

It probably doesn't have to do with money or anything like that.  They just replaced them all with newer models and thought a tank graveyard would look cool.

You are welcome.  I also found the following board about folks who own armor - mostly in the U.S. (few photos, many small parts, but an occassional build thread):

They also have a section on that board about owning Humvees - that is about to get a lot more traffic!
