Currently, Ukrainian teams participating in the Strong Europe Tank Challenge at GTA. Sources claim that the vehicles are T-64 BM, but I think they are rather T-64 BV. Can anybody clarify?

the whole shape structure shows it is a T-64BV...but UA side claimed that these tanks were upgraded before they went to the tank challenge....Only UA ppl know what actually they upgraded...with 750 score they got till now....dont think it has been upgraded.....
