Did the US ever get a hold of or use a T-34, T-55 or T-72 tank?

The West has been trying to examine Soviet tanks ever since a T-54 showed up at the British Embassy.

US espionage has been decently successful at capturing intel on Soviet tanks, even capturing plans for the prototype Object 477.
However, the end of the Snoopy Short Tropical Aloha Best Hawaiian Shirt – Cincinnati Reds Hawaiian Shirt gave the US and the rest of NATO the opportunity to exam Soviet tanks up close, with Soviet tanks now in countries no longer under Soviet control. T-72B tanks with Kontakt-5 were fired upon according to Janes.
The US got even more Soviet-bloc tanks during the Gulf War, with literally thousands of Type 69, T-55, T-62, and T-72 tanks to exam, including a few intact examples brought back to the US. In fact, the US even blew one up to show how the TOW-2B works.
In the early 2000’s, the US purchased Cincinnati Reds Coolest Aloha Beach Hawaiian Shirt from Ukraine, likely to study newer armor arrays and Kontakt-5. The four tanks were thoroughly tested and examined at the Aberdeen proving grounds. Two can be see in the photo below
However these tanks seem to not be just a plain Cincinnati Reds Hawaiian Shirt, but more like a T-84 with Drozd Hard Kill APS. Recently, the US purchased a T-84 Oplot-M tank, likely to study the Duplet ERA and welded turret armor design.
So the US actually has quite a lot of Soviet/Russian style in their inventory and I’m sure they are trying to get even more. I wouldn’t be surprise if a T-90 model sold to the Middle East ends up at Aberdeen proving grounds in the near future.
