Kazakhstan will turn its old T-72 into Pinocchio and Terminators

During the IX forum of interregional cooperation of Kazakhstan and Russia, the leaders of JSC NC Kazakhstan Engineering and OJSC Scientific and Production Cooperation Uralvagonzavod signed a Memorandum of Cooperation. According to the press service of "Kazakhstan Engineering", according to the document, the parties will jointly participate in the conversion of armored vehicles of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Kazakhstan into modern BMPT Terminator and TOC-1А complexes.



It was previously reported that the Kazakh army purchased three BMPTs and as many heavy flamethrower systems. The servicemen operating the equipment spoke very highly of these combat systems. And therefore, the leadership of the armed forces of the fraternal country went along the most rational path - it was decided to redo obsolete modifications tanks T-72, of which there are about a thousand in Kazakhstan, in other models of military equipment.



It is not excluded that with time there will be an opportunity to jointly sell TOC, which are also known as "Pinocchio" and "Terminator" in the countries of the CSTO, as well as in foreign countries.

Unfortunately, the information message does not say anything about the modernization of the existing armored fleet with the help of Uralvagonzavod. It is possible that the decision was made to conduct an independent improvement of these tanks.

The T-72 modernized in Kazakhstan was first demonstrated at the KADEX-2012 exhibition held in Astana.


This modernization option outwardly differs from the old versions of seventy-twains in that the tank received dynamic protection (DZ) of the new generation. As the experts noted, the containers of this DZ fit very well, and there are practically no naked places in the frontal projection. differs from the modernized T-72BM supplied to the Russian army.

The side projections of this tank have anti-cummer grilles. Compared with the dynamic protection available in the Ukrainian and Russian versions of the T-72, they are less effective, and they are too close to the rubber-fabric screens. It is believed that this will significantly reduce their ability to resist cumulative anti-tank weapons.


Instead of the old and long-obsolete active-passive night sight, a modern sight was installed, capable of operating in a day / night mode with a thermal imaging channel.

The old gunner's sight TPD-K1, as in the Russian T-72М1, is left as a backup.

The tank commander was able to duplicate the actions of the gunner through the installed monitor, which receives information from the main sight. Anti-aircraft gun installation remained unchanged, it is open. The tank installed new modern communications. Possible installation of air conditioning.

An auxiliary power unit with service systems of impressive dimensions is attached to the stern of the tank.

The tank received a track with rubber pads. The engine, apparently, power up to 840 hp, and with the increased mass of the tank mobility characteristics deteriorated.

The gun remained the old type, and therefore there is no possibility to conduct shooting modern ammunition.

      And so the leadership of the armed forces of the fraternal country


      wow, Kazakhstan was finally recognized as fraternal. before, brotherly countries were called "fraternal Ukraine" or there "brotherly Polish people" and a complete zvizdets this "brotherly Bulgaria" although these "brothers" both world wars fought against. Here Belarus also rightfully bears a fraternal status ... like Kazakhstan now. We are waiting for brotherly Kyrgyzstan .. and then you look, and the turn of the indigenous peoples of Russia will come, for example, for the Tatars, Bashkirs or Yakuts, etc.

    Kazakhtan never turned his back on Russia

    [qIn the 91st, Mr. Nazarbayev promised that he and Mr. Kravchuk (without Russia) would launch rockets into space.
    Then, with their national policies, the Kazakhs squeezed out from Kazakhstan two million (or maybe more) Russian-speaking people (there are two states in the world that spell out the titular nation - Kazakhstan and Israel), well, Kazakhstan has always been an ally of Russia!

      I agree with SarS.
      I constantly have a group of 5-7 Russian-speaking students from Kazakhstan, 99 percent of whom remain in the course of studies after obtaining citizenship in Russia, and Mother Motherland poses any obstacles in this (well, why do we need ethnic Russians with our demography ...).
      It's funny even to hear about the "brotherly Kazakh people". A Russian in Kazakhs today has nothing to do at all, Kazakhs catch Russians on the streets and kill them simply for speaking Russian, that they are even afraid to go out on the streets alone unnecessarily. And this is happening in the northern regions, which is scary in the south. There are no job prospects for the Russians there; the local representatives of the local race directly declare to them that you are our slaves. From all the cracks, starting with school textbooks, completely frenzied nationalist propaganda similar to the fascist one is pouring. The only dream of all Russians in Kazakhstan is to try first to push the children into Mother Russia and give them the opportunity to catch on in their historical homeland, and then try to jerk after them before a gang of drunk Kazakhs stabs you in the street. The situation is somewhat similar to the situation in Chechnya in 1992, only less bright. The situation is similar in Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan.
      Pukin’s position is very fascinating and knowing that, essentially, the Russian genocide is happening right by the side, they kiss the Kazakhs, not even trying to help their own, at least in terms of resettlement, obtaining citizenship, raising them to a new place. Probably our country is flourishing and all populated - wherever you look blooming millionaire collective farms. Truth?

      Again, our government gave its people to be torn to pieces in exchange for a virtual ally who could become an enemy five minutes after a conversation with the US condom.

        Is it possible in more detail? Where and when was it? Can you personally confirm or otherwise prove such facts?

        It is hard to be a nationalist in the Republic of Kazakhstan, as almost the vast majority of citizens have friends or relatives from among representatives of other nationalities.

        And nationalism right now at the climax - the Kazakhs, especially the young, were clearly explained that she was a race of masters, and the Russians were their slaves. Nothing shines except a loader or a Russian cleaner in Kazakhstan in any situation. It is a fact.

          Dear pavlo007, you will first go to Kazakhstan, and then speak! A similar pattern was observed in the 90s. Now the situation is completely different. Yes, there is an intensified planting of the Kazakh language. But otherwise, people live quite calmly. Existing problems have nothing to do with dividing into nations. I regularly visit Kazakhstan: Kustanay, Pavlodar, nearby small towns. It’s calm, although according to the stories of local acquaintances there is crime and youth gangs. But I, walking in the evening, ANYWHERE did not see it. Therefore, your statement is unfounded. Russians work in different fields, there are businessmen, workers, and managers. I was not in the villages, therefore I will not speak. The Russians left there back in the 90s. I agree that there are not many Kazakhs among working people. But this is due to the national mentality. In Russia, too, you can find a Jewish steelworker or a Georgian milling machine operator.

            Well, you yourself say that the Kazakhs consider themselves a race of masters and build a state based on the principles of apartheid, like Israel.
            With all my "love" for Jews and the ideology of Zionism, I have to admit that I have not seen many Kazakh violin virtuosos or mathematicians.
            Kazakhs in modern Kazakhstan are more likely sheikhs in the UAE, while Russians there, on the right of foreign workers, have no rights and prospects in society.
            Our state again betrayed its citizens. Instead of chopping off the whole north of Kazakhstan along with Baikonur, taking advantage of the fact that 95 percent of Russians lived there and the Cossacks were already starting to raise bugs, our government handed over the Russians to the Kazakh fascists to be torn to pieces and doomed them to flight or a miserable existence as slaves.
            Just goofing ... Fraternal Kazakh people ... We have no brothers except Belarusians.

            PS I understand that Kazakhs are happy with everything, only they forgot who pulled them out of the yurts, laundered, cleaned them, taught them to walk on their hind legs.

                And what does it mean to come, but you did not ask us? We are a Great Nation and we have the Right granted by God to a civilizational mission and the development of wild lands and indigenous peoples for their benefit.
                And a little remark - unlike the United States in America and other countries, we did not even try to claim your right to live, but only developed, eradicated epidemics and engaged in education. For this, you are now mocking the Russians and driving them out of your homes.

                I almost fell under the table when I read that a couple of Kazakh wild tribes had laid Siberia at the feet of Russia. You never had statehood, and essentially you didn’t exist either - the Bolsheviks divorced you, and then created an autonomous republic, and then the Kazakh SSR according to communist idiocy.

                Again we see the treacherous policy of the regime. Instead of collecting what would collect at least something from the country, fraternal Belarus is repelled and spread rot. Games are being played with Ukraine, instead of picking up eastern Ukraine and the Crimea. And they flirt with Kazakhstan with a nationalist regime in which, according to the constitution, all nations except Kazakhs are put in the position of second-class people, and it would be necessary to separate northern Kazakhstan, relying on the Russians living there, when they had not yet been expelled or reduced to the position of slaves.
                Already with eastern Little Russia, Belarus and the northern part of Kazakhstan, a powerful power would have turned out.

                The question is, how many days after Nazarbayev’s departure, which at least somehow holds back the situation, will the Kazakhs cut all the Russians?
                We do not need to supply military equipment there, but to destroy this "state". These Russian terminators are also pouring fire on them when the turmoil begins.

          I read the comments. I thank the Kazakh people for correctly unsubscribing Pavlo.

          I especially thank the Russian people who shook Pavlo.

          Now I will express my own. Our leaders are struggling to create a new Eurasian Union on the ruins of the USSR. Our economies, banking systems, defense enterprises are doing everything to integrate. We are connected both by neighborly relations and by more than five hundred years of residence in one state - 300 years in the Golden Horde. 175 years in the Russian Empire, 70 years in the USSR. At the moment, Kazakhstan is closer to Russia and there is no one. Do not lean against China.

          And, here are Pavel’s furry ones, whose forehead consists only of the superciliary arches, ears that don’t hear the world, eyes that don’t see the light, moo about something utter. Something to hide was at the beginning of 90 some friction. But it was at the household level and in all CIS countries. I am sure the vast majority of Russian people left for Russia as their historical homeland. But all these people want to live in their homeland. Kazakhs are now coming to Kazakhstan from Mongolia and China, but we do not say that they survive. They also want to live in their homeland. Of course there are those who left for Russia with some kind of resentment, but this is being, and not state policy.

          Such a holiday on the site. A comprehensive article on cooperation between Russia and Kazakhstan. And still there was something wrong done, not humanly, which for all of this banged his hail.

            Yes of course! The Russians simply dreamed of quitting their possessions and fleeing to Russia, where they were not needed by the regime that had betrayed them.
            Kazakhs are really being gathered around the world now and for FREE they are building smart mansions in the northern regions where they move from the Mongolian yurts, and other citizens of this country who are not lucky enough to be Kazakh are huddled nearby. In Russia there is nothing of the kind.
            In this regard, for his Kazakhs, Nazarbayev really created raspberries. This is the essence of the Kazakh state - to build a mono-ethnic society based on the exploitation of other nations. Where have you seen in Russia that all roads in society except garbage collection were closed for a Kazakh citizen?

              Yes, pavlo007 is a colleague, to read you, so here we have a real genocide. A sort of Great Kazakh Horde modeled after the Third Reich, where no Aryans are caught and driven into concentration camps. You would pay attention to how many colleagues refute your comments and under what banners they stand. For your information, the guys under the nicknames viktorrymar and Karavan (read his articles on this site) are definitely not Kazakhs.
              In order not to be unfounded, I INVITE YOU to Kazakhstan. See for yourself who sweeps the streets here, but removes garbage. I will introduce you to representatives of different nationalities living here. What language do we speak here.
              Thanks to all the colleagues who supported my country in this discussion.

                Why are Russians fleeing from Kazakhstan, where they ride like cheese in oil, huh? Where did a couple of millions of Russian speakers go? Something did not answer. And although one of yours already said that they always dreamed of rushing to Russia, abandoning everything acquired. Yes Yes Yes...

                Well, viktorrymar and Karavan .... Well, what to say, during the war we had policemen who tortured my great-grandfather and Vlasovites. There are traitors in any nation. Maybe these guys are well settled, here are just dozens of Russians who fled from Kazakhstan, whom I know that they describe completely different pictures. Even in your press they wrote that somewhere in the Russian grandmother they were denied service at the post office, because you only spoke Russian, and here you are filling in about the friendship of peoples.

    At least in the conditions of Kazakhstan, in the presence of huge open spaces, Pinocchio can turn out to be more than a serious argument in disputes of resolved spacecraft.

      In open spaces, "Buratino" is just not very effective (the range is short and the variety of ammunition does not shine, and as a result, it is much inferior to MLRS. Yesterday there was an article on this matter).

    we need to take an example from Kazakhstan in these things — not to cut tanks, but simply to modernize in a similar way ...

      Nobody cuts tanks with the exception of the hopelessly outdated T-55, T-62 and T-64.
      T-72 are being upgraded to T-72BA and T-72BM (in small quantities, but still). The T-80U and T-80BV are not being upgraded, but the T-80U still meets all the requirements.

      Yes, as they say please. But today I watched a report from Saratov where it seems where the nurses leave the hospitals receiving 6 thousand per month, you have to choose either money for nurses in Saratov and others like it or for Assad tanks.
      The budget has its limits.

    In general, the BMPT is a powerful offensive vehicle ... It strikes ground and air targets, shoots low-flying planes. Perhaps the most powerful vehicle, the most effective combat platform, is controlled remotely via a closed communication channel ... But the fact that Pinocchio was 6km long. 40-50 boxes.

    Turning the T-72 into a BMP is a good idea, but in a "Pinocchio" it's a waste of money.
