Default Re: The tank that really never was



WHY does this not surprise me?

I will wait for further confirmation before pulling them from the OOB

Of course, I found some better photos of the Turret a month ago and redid them.......

Thanks for the heads-up

More than a novel tank is lost. In June 2015, The Royal United Services institute (RUSI) hosted an event on Armata, presented by the knowledgeable Ukrainian Igor Sutyagin. The talks highlighted the programme was about a family of ‘Armata’ vehicles (T-15 heavy IFV, T-16 BREM-T ARRV, K-25 Kurganets and others). It is highly unlikely any of these projects will now proceed in the near/mid-term or at all. The future looks much like the out-dated Soviet past. As a final blow T-14 Armata’s improved 2A82-IM 125mm cannon – an undeniable upgrade on comparatively under-gunned Russian tanks – will not serve on T-90M. The breech block doesn’t fit.
I have a couple of months to get further info before the next update but FOR NOW all of these чудо-оружие are pushed to 6/125 start
