T-62s (modernised versions) are in Ukraine now (Kherson region, probably will be used on Nikolaev-Krivoy Rog directions). Vehicle was out of production in mid 70s, but modernisation continued to mid 80s.

Also is that some extra applique armor on the sides, to act as spaced armor?

Probably.

This Object 169 is really interesting. 

It has T-72A Tucha smoke dischargers, T-72A styled side skirts, a thermal sleeve for the 115mm laser rangefinder and some of them used the 1K13 sight.

   A self-made masted surveillance camera installed by Russian soldiers on the BMP-3.

   Due to the insufficiency of full-time reconnaissance forces and means in one of the tank battalions of the Russian army, an emergency reconnaissance unit was formed on the basis of the BMP-3. AFV was equipped with a high folding mast with a camera, which allows to observe the situation through the folds of the terrain without unmasking of the vehicle. The troop compartment of the infantry fighting vehicle was converted into a command post, where a widescreen monitor for video output and a laptop are located. A "freelance" operator of a commercial reconnaissance UAV is also attached to this BMP-3.

I see BTR were striped of their cage armor . probably so folks don't ask to much why Ukrainians have cage armor on theirs but Russians don't.

Those are BTR-3s, they don't have/use cage armor usually (to be honest i never saw a pic of a BTR-3 with cage armor, so i don't think they use it at all) BTR-4s on the other hand do use it extensively, you can see it in the background and it has screens on the turret attached
