Two battalions of tanks "Armata" on the way to the troops

31
State tests of the latest military equipment based on the Armata platform will start this year and will last 2 years. After their completion, a decision will be made on bulk procurement. Also tested are new tank shells.

Today, Uralvagonzavod has a contract with the Ministry of Defense for the supply of two battalions of T-14 tanks. At the moment, the tank battalion of a separate brigade of the Russian army consists of an 42 tank. That is, the total number of combat vehicles that will be delivered to the troops in the coming 2 of the year is close to a hundred units. All of them, as they become available, will undergo operational combat operations.

Moreover, in the near future, the domestic defense industry should submit a robotic version of the ultra-modern tank. Already created a system of remote control tanks, as well as additional means of tracking the external situation.

        At the moment, the tank battalion of a separate brigade of the Russian army has 42 tanks. Before the reform of the turn of the 2000s – 2010s, the tank battalions of the tank regiments of the divisions totaled 31 tanks, motorized rifle - 40 tanks.

    It is gratifying that military training is going on throughout the Russian army, but that’s not all, so to speak, not a panacea .... Before the Second World War, according to eyewitnesses, as soon as it started to rain or blizzard, the military units of those years raised the alarm and went on field exit, combat deployment, etc. But then, it did not help, and 20 thousand Soviet tanks were destroyed in two weeks, even though half of them were already useless T-26 tanks.
    So, we also need such a factor as combat experience and the ability to fight, but it is acquired only in a real war.

    Therefore, today's Russian military-political leadership is doing the right thing: by participating in a limited military conflict, enable personnel to gain this invaluable experience, to develop methods of warfare and to test equipment. In a future war, less blood will be shed.

        Regular troops are also present in Syria. I had one classmate but he on the S-400 seems to serve as a mechanic for generators, and the second in Solntsepek. So we can say that even in limited numbers, other types of troops are gaining combat experience.

        Well, according to Kuzhegetovich, during the Syrian operation, more than 48 thousand people received combat experience. Air defense, MTR, doctors, communications, engineers, etc. Including senior officers. Youngsters will be taught, if that ....

      In fairness, the vast majority of the T-26 and BT tanks were abandoned, since it was impossible to fight them. It was destroyed in the battles, EMNIP, no more than 2-3 thousand, which is also a lot.
      IMHO, they should have been placed in caponiers on the Stalin Line, than to strengthen its anti-tank capabilities ... although it’s not for us to judge that war. It is possible that this could not be done.

        In 1941, the Red Army lost 6.290.000 small arms, most of which went to the Germans in the form of trophies in the early days of the war, as it was stored on the border (VIZH. 1991. No. 4). This weapon is enough to arm the whole of Germany.

        In 1941, the Red Army lost 20.500 tanks from 27 thousand pre-war. Of these, in the very first days of the war, Zhukov (due to miscalculations) presented Hitler with 6,5 thousand Soviet tanks (including T-34, KV-1 and KV-2), which then attacked Smolensk and Moscow with crosses on sides.

        Literaturnaya Gazeta, 1989, March 22, article by V. Anfilov “The most difficult years”: “We lost immediately, until mid-July 1941, about a million soldiers and officers, of which 724 thousand were captured. “The enemy got 6,5 thousand tanks, 7 thousand guns and mortars, huge stocks of fuel and ammunition as trophies.”

          And where did the Germans drop such a mass of weapons? Broke and lose? At the end of the war, Hitler called for war of 6 million children and the elderly. Simplified weapons were produced for their armaments. And why, if there were huge reserves of trophy?

          Even the Germans did not boast of such successes. Only Wikipedia, which no one believes, writes about 25 tanks. And so all the tanks were on the western border. So they were not on the Finnish border, on the Chinese and Turkish. There were no tanks in the troops in the interior of the country, in training tank units, at armored repair factories, or in warehouses. Everything was collected on the western border for a free transfer to Hitler. laughing

          Near the border of the troops there were about 500 people. Of these losses, 000 million. Mathematics from Goebbels.

            Actually, you can agree with the loss of 20.000 tanks in 41 years. You just have to be aware, and even better to find archival documents WHAT were these tanks. If it were 20 thousand KV and T-34, then it would be a slap and a nightmare, but if you deal with the facts, the truth unpleasant in the liars pops up - often they were "fast tanks" that were not combat ready in conditions of the Second World War. Actually, our Army had very few real Tanks (KV and T-34), but even often those that were lost were not so much destroyed by the Nazis in battle, but they broke down, were left without fuel or destroyed by enemy aircraft, and often even on the march.
            But let's look for data on armored vehicles of the Wehrmacht for 41 years and - oh, horror, it also almost completely “disappeared” in the vastness of the USSR. And this is without surroundings, Russian dominance in the air, and all that we got in 41. And this means that it is just the combat training, the heroism of the Russian soldier, that buried all these many thousandth armada in our fields. soldier

      They say stupidity, just such training as they were in the USSR before the Second World War, high morale and allowed essentially to destroy the fascist army on the way to Moscow. Fighting in obviously losing conditions - the loss of the sky, the shortage of everything from fuel to ammunition, as well as communications, the USSR Army was not simply defeated, it took with it to the damp earth and almost the entire Wehrmacht army. Yes, read real sources, “shock” A. Gasparyan (also that archival rat, as he jokingly calls himself) and you will find out that the Wehrmaks also suffered terrible losses. It’s a legend that back in 41, the Minister of Industry, Speer, came to Hitler with the words “if this goes further, we will lose the war”, meaning simply the prohibitive losses in equipment and people. And it's kind of like back in 41. Now compare this with the war against Finland, which is why the teachings were important and what they were doing. That is why preparation is important now, no matter where - God forbid in Russia, in Ruin or somewhere else, but our army should be ready to Fight at ANY MOMENT (even on February 24).

    In Syria, they had to be tested until the tank was in combat, it remains an experimental vehicle, when did they test the IS tanks? During the war, that’s why it was so successful! There all the "childhood diseases" will open.

    I would never trust the little clerks of the late 80s and 90s. They wrote the same thing that Stalin piled a half of the country in Siberia, before the Second World War and after. And the Buryats, Tajiks and Chukchi, therefore, fought and therefore fled, surrendered, broke, burned ......... I read such nonsense, it makes me sick. They have such tactics. 10-15% of the truth, then a pure lie 60-70% and then again a partial truth. All this is necessary for dusting the brains, what all the media are doing now. But the Empire, the USSR and Russia are still the worst, yet not malleable and obedient.
    Regarding Armata, she has long been scratching a landfill in Taman. The Coalition sets off from day to day. It happens that you are sitting at the cottage as at the front in the near rear, especially during biathlon. In Krasnoznamensk brother says the windows are shaking)))
