Interestingly, and what "instrument" innovations ?? Well, you need to think "pine-U" installed - it is now put on EVERYTHING .... And yet ???

That's what infuriates ... a bunch of grandmas in the banged in the modernization, and squeezed the commander on the thermal imager ... thereby leveling all the advantages of the tank (as in 72 BZ). Although they didn’t come up with armored protection like handshakes, apparently Omsk worked or the Leningraders.

The last time the Omsk tower was scandal rolled out)
Defense is now well built ...

the T-80BMV, unlike the T-90, does not have a side exhaust. So that they could completely cover the sides of the hull with cumulative screens (!)

Strange tower defense. The shoulder strap is open, the DZ blocks are turned "face" down ... Are these invitations for BOPS? Logically, it should be the other way around, to make them a dome so that they look up, then we close the shoulder strap and, if triggered, everything goes up, and not to our own fenders and side protection.

This is so that the water wouldn’t be torn off when driving along the camp ... BOPS will not notice this obstacle strongly, and if it does, it’s more likely that it will go up. But I agree that there is clearly not enough DZ “boxes” on the bottom of the tower’s forehead, but in general it’s time to leave DZ and move on to hinged, replaceable multi-layer blocks ... They worked on this in the USSR as a “feather test”, this is additional protection T -55M and T-62M. Yes, they came out heavy, but they did not threaten death with the crew, and especially with their infantry. And now, such blocks can be made at a completely different technological level, which will increase armor protection, with an acceptable weight. Well, and if necessary, you can always strengthen the protection of pack "soft armor", a.a Russian "KNIFE"

There was a photo that was inside these bags .... some plastic crap somehow nobody understood what it was ...

[Wedmak]

Yes, and these bags are somehow attached hilenko ... Dangling on some belts? Tear off - just spit.

But what did the anti-aircraft machine gun not make remote? Fights in the Donbass in cities and towns showed that this was already a necessity. Otherwise, the kirdyk commander. A little detached from the infantry and the fire on the tank from all sides. Or now without BMPT anywhere?

[cariperpaint]

whether he is there or not, the commander will still climb out of the hatch. and not at all to shoot from a machine gun.

Tarpaulin prezik on the trunk does not protect likely friends from flying. ;-)

But I like the tank, it’s better than the T-72, especially in winter, starting up like an airplane, the engine is compact, we need to work it out thoroughly with new technologies and upgrade it to the type of Almaty and we will be happy))
