what about pantsyr status ?

It was ordered by the UAE (Gulf States in terms of SPMBT) but it will not be fielded in Russia.

The T-64, T-72 and the T-80 have been built by separate companies. The T-72 (Morozov Design Bureau)was less expensive and complicated than the T-64(Kharkov Transport Machine Plant). The T-64 has not been exported. Which could mean that it was technologically more advanced than the T-72. If I am not mistaken, the primary use for the T-64 was for the 'defense' of Russia. I am not sure if that means it was superior though.

The T-80 (Leningrad Kirov Plant)was developed to further the T-64. It is more an upgraded T-64 than a T-72. Sort of like the T-90 developed from the basis of the T-72. I really think that the T-64 was far more advanced than anything that NATO developed during that period.

There has been no further developments of the T-64, which numbers were close to 8000. Which could mean that it is being phased out like the M-60 tanks have, here in the US. I doubt it would be a front line tank.

There are no rocket launchers on any tanks.

This is the status:

In mid-2000, the United Arab Emirates signed a contract worth US$734 million with the KBP Instrument Design Bureau for final development and subsequent delivery of 50 96K6 Pantsyr-S1, the export version. Under the terms of this contract, the KBP will complete development within two years and in the following three years, deliver the systems in three batches. This consists of 12 systems in 2003, 24 in 2004 and the remainder in 2005. It is believed that 26 will be on a wheeled chassis and 24 on a tracked chassis.

Whoa!

The Morozov plant has actually developed a pair of T-64 deep modernizations, but it is now in Ukraine rather than Russia.

I never knew that the sams launchers on the tunguska were independent (4 launchers x 2) can it track numerous targets and still engage
