T-72B3 with additional biathlon protection

17
As the news portal "Messenger of Mordovia", At the site of the tank biathlon in Alabino fully demonstrated the extreme modification tank T-72, which received the official name "T-72B3 with additional protection" (the so-called sample of 2016).

T-72B3 with additional biathlon protection


The new model, already entering the Russian troops, provides protection for the side and stern projections of the hull and turret by installing removable modular protection and lattice anti-cumulative screens.



The increased mass is compensated by a more powerful engine in 1130 horsepower (on older versions of 840 hp), which significantly improved the mobility of the machine. In service is an updated 125-mm gun with a high barrel survivability. The equipment is represented by a modern radio station and the Sosna-U sight, which allows you to hit objects at a distance of 5 km.

    As far as it is protected and cool, only military operations can show, but in general, judging by the indicators, the tank is pretty good.

      Yes, and without action it is visible - the "extreme" modification is a modification to all modifications. They continue to burn on VO "great and mighty" - well, it is necessary to screw so: "fully demonstrated extreme modification tank".

      And what do you think "tank is not bad enough." The fact that canvas coolies with cat litter were hung on it? Or the fact that there were holes in the remote sensing area in the vicinity of the trunk, they remained, and indeed the gaps in the remote sensing area in the frontal and lateral projections of the tower remained. Well, they hung still boxes on the stern of the tower and hung the grate, EVERYTHING.

      And so 1130l \ s doesn’t seem to be bad .. But we look at the 38.8l engine capacity of a total of 29.1l \ s per liter of volume ... Yeah ... the 21st century is in the yard, and if you take into account that the resource is microscopic there are some doubts in the present of this miracle .. We look at YaMZ-536 6.7l freight diesel engines at 451l \ s with EURO-0 ..
      Or Volvo FN 12l from 450 to 750.l \ s and this is at the EURO-4..5 standards (and they oh strangle engine char-ki), and a huge resource that the military never dreamed of .. And in terms of fuel consumption and there’s an abyss of oil .. Now the question is what are the engine-building bureaus doing for tankers? I understand now they will tell me about the low weight of the engine, its tight layout, multi-fuel, but all this is somehow not very convincing .. And there is confidence that we simply DO NOT have modern technologies for the production of internal combustion engines ..

    The gun’s mask ... again a weak spot ... maybe this is not so important as they write about it ... but the protection configuration around the mask is almost the same ...
    I hope the experience of wars (including our internal ones) was used ... and the topic was well shot at the training ground ...

      In fact, they put an additional DZ block there. And before there was a melon.

      get into this mask first) I don’t remember the exact numbers, but getting to that place is microscopic as a percentage. a tank is movement. static shooting from a place on the firing range. and then not always. as our teacher said without a maneuver you pillbox)))

    The slots in the DZ tower of the frontal projection (see 1st and 3rd pictures) are such that the dog will crawl through. What protection is there?

      One hope that they will not shoot dogs at them .. But in general, of course, the topic is not new, why this defect has not yet been fixed, it is decidedly incomprehensible

      Indeed, they could have developed a triangular protection block.

    It’s time to have already “Armata” not to brag, but to fight in biathlon. By the way, something quite a while
    praises about her not to hear.

    Anti-aircraft machine gun interestingly installed. Previously stood on the commander's cupola.

      Yuri, he ... is also installed there.
      Just an internal shoulder strap with TKN-3 put on the stopper.
      They removed the average shoulder strap from the stop and turned the switchgear to 26-0. Take a closer look, the commander’s turret is looking in the opposite direction.
      wink
      Pretzel designers, aphids.
      It would be better if the commander put things in order. How much has been said ...

      As I understand it, they are hanged during the conduct of hostilities.
