T-80 Megathread: Astronomical speed and price!

I have a question regarding the T-80U (for a project I am working on). 

 

Did it use the same 5-layer Glacis armour arrangement as the T-80BV? 

 

Aka this;

I'd expect at least the early units to use this ^, but the USSR never really settled on one layout (and they were moving to NERA at this time point).

I need to start to work on T-80 models spotting guide as part of Communist tracked boxes thread. Still, not many good photos of early T-80 models. There is like 4 photos of T-80B with this one ^ in GLORIOUS T-80 folder on my computer.

Nice thread. 

I was traveling in the Carelian Isthmus in the last autumn and had to have a mediocre photoshoot at the Kamenka T-80 statue. Wasn't the 45. GMRD the first to receive T-80's back in the day?

What is this actually? Obj. 219? The smoke dischargers were fake and ERA-attachments seem fabricated too. I've got dozen more photos of it...
