Source: serial production of Armata tanks will begin in 2020

Series production of the latest tanks T-14 Armata will begin in 2020, several hundred cars will be manufactured. This was reported by TASS with reference to a source in the Russian military-industrial complex.

In accordance with the state armament program for 2018-2027, mass production of tanks on the Armata platform should start in 2020, hundreds of vehicles will be manufactured

- Said the source agency.

He noted that first of all the 1-I Guards Tank (headquarters - Odintsovo, Moscow region) and 20-I Guards combined-arms army of the Central Military District (headquarters - Voronezh), as well as the 8-I Guards combined arms army of the Southern Military Okrug (headquarters - Novocherkassk, Rostov region).

The source also said that in the second half of 2018, the supply to the troops of the pilot batch of Armat tanks should be completed. He did not specify the number of cars included in it.

There is currently no official confirmation of this information.

At the end of December last year, Commander-in-Chief of the Land Forces Oleg Salyukov announced the conclusion of a contract for the supply to the Armed Forces of an experimental-industrial batch of Armata tanks. The commander clarified that OPK enterprises are debugging "Almaty" in accordance with the planned deadlines. The fact that the new state armament program on 2018-2027 years involves serial deliveries of tanks "Armata", in November 2017, said Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin.

He noted that first of all, the 1st Guards Tank (headquarters - Odintsovo, Moscow region) and the 20th Guards Combined Arms Army of the Central Military District (headquarters - Voronezh), as well as the 8th Guards Combined Arms Army of the Southern Military District (headquarters - Novocherkassk, Rostov Region).

Or I missed something or not exactly .... The 1st Guards in the Western Military District is included

[Spartanez300]

Earlier it was reported that the army will receive a hundred tanks "Armata" until 2020.

[210ox]

In short, there is nothing to discuss. Unless there is a typo in the article ... When they begin to deliver, then we will discuss it. If we survive.

Congratulations - WE LIVE. Tanks are already in the army. Upon completion of the military test phase and the introduction of changes, serial tanks will go to the troops, the UVZ is already ready.

[Thrall]

Phew ... and I was afraid that D. Rogozin was not mentioned. The last word flew into the article

[Don]

That is great! 2300 tanks will be delivered via GPV to 2020 g, and after hundreds more will be delivered. With 2015 T-50, 48 units were promised, 8 Boreev, 7 Ash, dozens of frigates, hundreds of Sarmatians ... This, I understand, rose from their knees. Putin is definitely well done

2300 T-14 or 2300 ARMAT? There is a difference. We talked about the PLATFORM, but it doesn’t include much.

T-50 48 units promised

Do you have engines for them?

Amendment.

Another amendment: 2300 T-14 (this is a tank, if it is) or 2300 vehicles on the Armata platform (T-14, T-15 and various other ARVs)?
So right, then you can no longer edit

They would have written about everything until 2040, so that it would not be necessary to correct it so often.

[vkl.47]

Now the screech will begin where the promised 2300 cars. Nobody is watching the economic situation in the world.

[210ox]

The economic situation in the WORLD does not allow us to supply tanks to the troops? I understand that our economy or premature promises by the leaders do not allow us. It is clear that the latest technology and the industry can not yet allow thousands to supply new equipment.

[cariperpaint]

Yes, it’s not even a matter of economics, but simple mathematics. even if 100 per year to produce 2300 pieces, how many years? all perfectly understand and know. and if someone decided that 2300 is a plan for a couple of years, then this is their personal troubles. generational change is a long and phased process.

[Gardamir]

Again news from the future. I understand the news so many tanks entered the troops. And that, whether it will be, or not. Some similar news is used before the election as a fait accompli.

[rotmistr60]

in the second half of 2018 should to end supply to the troops of a pilot industrial batch of tanks

As can be understood from the article, the pilot industrial party will arrive this year.

[loginovich]

If a pilot industrial batch arrives this year, then what is it?

[rotmistr60]

Well stalled during rehearsal, so what? Yes, it could stall due to the fault of the driver. In your Ukraine, the armor creeps apart at the seams, then spontaneously ignite, or do not start at all.

"Front company"

[Herman 4223]

This is the first hundred vehicles for the army, a lot of stocks come to light at the beginning of mass production and the first years of operation. Therefore, the party is essentially experimental. And the fact that the parade is the very first batch of experimental cars, mainly for factory tests.

[Alexey-74]

We will discuss in fact comrades. Arrival will go soon, not long to wait until the year 20 ... We will see .......

[gig334]

Transferred again? in principle, I am not surprised, the current balabololiberals are not communists.

Do we have an army without tanks? Why this rush? Let them do it, run it in and bring it to mind calmly. Not the 41st year in the yard, thank God ...

Right!
Moreover, a radical improvement of the Russian production of electronics and mechanical engineering is taking place now.
It is important to have a well-prepared production and a good start ... But the tank must constantly develop (be developed) so that at the right time it is the most modern, and not the "former advanced". And for this, the release of small experimental series is enough.

[sapporo1959]

And in that year I read what will soon begin to come and in this I already read ... what will be soon. And so, to be honest, I look at the photo of this square tank lined with tin and I don’t see anything that has no analogues .. True, I'm not a tanker and maybe something and I don’t see .. but the birdhouse is visually of course suitable for shelling ..

And that year I read comments that the tank will never be released. And as in the photo, some immediately determined that it was plywood and fell apart from the shot ... True, I am not a psychiatrist, and I don’t understand nichrome in medicine, but I can make a diagnosis ...

[sapporo1959]

To be honest, I didn’t expect that wherever the psychiatric counterparts write about the tanks .. Maybe it’s the same as the tank that the colleagues sculpted the same? Alright, do not blame the disabled person .. but he looks not a lot of strange?

The main thing that they launched into the series. Will wait.

The fact that the new state armament program on 2018-2027 years involves serial deliveries of tanks "Armata", in November 2017, said Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin.

And the old program before 2020, is still valid and has flowed into a new one?

[Ivanov IV]

Judging by the way the T-14s have been running around for a long time, the product is clearly raw. We must not play it safe, but make a couple of samples and throw them into Syria. Then the refinement will be more effective. But, it seems, the "ranks" are very afraid of screwing up.

[sapporo1959]

Well, how is the product raw? Indeed, judging by the chatter, he had long since become unparalleled ...

[Romanenko]

Interestingly, but with a gun 152 mm will do? After all, there is a gun and an experimental batch of ammunition was made and shot. And judging by the results, the product was just fantastic. That would be "friends" this gun with the head of Almaty.

And there is no reason for this fluff .... Moreover, there will be a full-fledged "Coalition".

Will the Coalition fire direct fire, supporting the attack? Compare the high-explosive action of a 125-mm shell and a 152-mm shell, you will be very surprised. And about the armor-piercing effect of the 6-dm guns you can not even mention.

Direct fire is optional. And about the support, so why did it, in your opinion (a rhetorical question) ...
Both the tank and the attacker, and for its effectiveness, a balance of the power of the gun and the number of shots is needed. If the quantity tends to zero, then there will be no sense.

Quote: Alf

Why will I be surprised? That's why they made the Coalition, so as not to be surprised.
And the tank’s gun is imprisoned for armor-piercing shells, for which high speed is important (about 2000 m / s). Firing high-explosive shells at such a speed is simply ruining a cannon that already has a small resource (a little over 500 shots).

Quote: Alf

And about the armor-piercing effect of the 6-dm guns you can not even mention.

I permit you not to mention ... To defeat heavily armored vehicles, it will most likely be used managed mortar, artillery (the same Coalition) or missile systems (Hermes) located in their rear, which will be guided by the tank at the front, reconnaissance drones, and even infantry (who will have a target designation system).

I’ll add on my own that as far as the power of 152mm shells increases, their number in the machine will decrease.
And for a tank technician, the problem with a machine gun has now become urgent. Can not choose from 7,62 and 12,7. The 7-ki already has insufficient lethal force (low shot energy), and the 12,7 mm has a small supply of ammunition and lower firing reliability. We need a new 9mm machine gun cartridge, similar to the 7,62x54R with a protruding edge, more convenient for use in the tape, in the mechanics of a machine gun (especially a quick-fire) and cheaper in production.
