Tests of the modernized T-72AMT tank started in Ukraine

In Ukraine, tests began on a prototype of a modernized tank T-72AMT, presented in 2017. Testing takes place at the Desna training ground in the Chernihiv region. This is reported by Ukrainian media.

Reportedly, specialists from the State Research Institute for Testing and Certification of Arms and Military Equipment are testing a prototype of the modernized T-72 tank, made for the Ukrainian Armed Forces. The planned test of a new modification of the tank under the designation T-72AMT was previously reported by the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine when transferring the modernized T-72 tanks to the Armed Forces.



This time the military department limited itself to reporting that new devices were installed on the prototype of the tank, the engine and the tank were being tested in conditions close to the combat ones. Fighting is planned.


However, it was previously reported that in the course of modernization, T-72AMT installed "night vision devices with a third-generation image intensifier tube", a commander’s observation device TKN-3UM, a sighting device 1K13-49 Neman (from the T-72B tank) with the ability to conduct of fire with the Combat tank guided missile, the night device of the driver TNK-72 or TVN-4BUP, the radio stations of the Turkish company Aselsan and Libid-K-2RB (Motorola assembly of the Kiev company Dolya and Co. Ltd.) instead of R-123 (R-173), a set of navigation equipment GLONASS / GPS SN-3003 "Basalt" (produced by the state enterprise "Orizon-Navigation", Smela, Yernigov region), a V-84-1 engine instead of a V-46, an auxiliary generator, a dynamic protection complex modeled on the T-72UA tank (using part of the Knife system elements), protective grilles at the rear of the hull and turret, drive wheels with caterpillars of the T-80 type, neon headlights, a 12,7-mm anti-aircraft machine-gun mount with remote control from the T-64BV tank and additional armor, rear-view cameras and rear-view mirrors.

Which of all of the above is precisely established is not known.

      Just a question: who and where will they be assembled / upgraded?
      And what kind of shisha?
      How many modernizations of everything and everything have already been? And where is it all? But no.

          Do you need to burn them?
          How many years has there been a pseudo calm?
          APU works mainly with artillery. Tanks are out there somewhere.
          And stand, it seems they will be for a long time.
          And, after all, no one here knows where these "modified" tanks, which, for sure, are taken from the front line, are being put, because the reserves are already insufficient. Maybe they are being secretly sold to "monkeys with a grenade" on the Afro-continent.

              Directory "Armed Forces of the World", Potpourri, Minsk, 2002. The Armed Forces of Ukraine had 4063 tanks, of which 320 T-80, 2200 T-64,1300 T-72,150 T-55. It was withdrawn to Ukraine from Eastern Europe in 1992 -1995, about 800 soldiers and officers of the Soviet Army with all the weapons. Now nothing new is being done, only modernization from storage bases and overhaul by donation method - one of 000-3 machines is being restored.

            The only thing I liked about the modernization of the T-64 into the T-84 "Oplot" is that the tank began to move backward at a speed of 35 km / h, which is convenient for maneuvering.

              - Firstly: the T-84 is based on the T-80UD, and not on the basis of the T-64!

        They are modernizing in sufficient quantities, very often there is information on the transfer of the next batch with photos. Another question is that Kharkov produced the T-64 and T-80 (and their modifications), but the T-72 did not, but there is a certain amount, do not throw it away. And yes, basically T-64 (including BM Bulat) is produced / modernized.

The T-72AG with respect to the T-72B3 has a larger DZ coverage in the frontal projection, there are no wild holes between the DZ blocks on the tower, and it also has better heat-and-television equipment (albeit imported)

The Russian general Melnik, who lobbed this deal, received 5 years and is still polishing it. After six months, Ukraine also received 300 GTD-1000 for repairing the T-80s that the AFU had. Before that, Ukraine did not commission the T-80, hoping to win LDNR T-64-mi.

          Pakistan was sold with guns of its own production. Not 450, but 300. And the tanks were not T-80, but T-84. The same eighty, only with the Kharkov horizontally opposed engine 6TDF. And he is unreliable and moody in the adjustment. They disassembled the cannon, took the dimensions, ordered trunks to the Sumy pipe plant. Well, the chemical composition of the steel was cut off, in the chemical laboratory and order. And the hardening mode? The Russian GRU did not interfere, it simply whispered to Pakistan that they say you shoot the cannon at the firing range, after 50 shots it starts to spit and the shell flies into the milk. That’s Pakistan and returned the tanks. The same story happened with 800 armored personnel carriers delivered to Iraq - cracks in the hulls; half of them lack batteries. In the same way, they paid off gas for Turkmenistan: they promised new diesel locomotives, and put tinted control units. Result: Turkmenistan does not sell gas to Ukraine after that.

      the press service of the GNII ISO VT reported that
      The prototype has a night vision device with electron-optical converters and a night sight with the possibility of firing a guided missile. Given the increase in mass, a more powerful engine was installed, the chassis elements were replaced, and a video parking system was added to simplify the maneuvering of a combat vehicle

      Also,
      T-72 version is equipped with a new digital radio station, satellite navigation system, a new complex of dynamic protection, an updated fire extinguishing system

      so almost everything that was stated is installed.
