The T-90C tank in Peru hit targets with almost 100% efficiency.
On the first day of testing, the weather conditions were complicated by heavy rain and thick fog - typical of the coast of Peru. All this limited the use of the 1-X46 optical sight, which could "see" at a distance of no more than 300-350 meters. Therefore, shooting at a distance from 2000 to 2500 m was carried out using an Essa thermal sight.
On the other two days, the weather conditions were optimal, which allowed the T-90С to shoot from the movement and parking at targets located at a distance from 1600 to 3000 m.
T-90 X made a total of 38 rounds with a 125 caliber mm (16 3VBM17 (BPS -T), 12 3VBK, 16 (HEAT-FS) and 10 3VOF36 (HE-FRAG)), HE-FRAG), -HE-FRAG, -HE-FRAG, -HE-FRAG, -HE-FRAG, -HE-FRAG, -HNUMX (HEAT-FS) and 94,7 XNUMXVOFXNUMX (HE-FRAG), -HE-FRAG), -HE-FRAG, -HE-FRAG, -HE-FRAG, -HE-FRAG, -HE-FRAG, -HE-FRAG, -HE-FRAG, -HE-FRAG, -HE-FRAG, -HE-FRAG, -HE-FRAG, -HE-FRAG
In addition to the firepower, T-90С showed its maneuverability and mobility in the conditions of mountain-desert terrain, smoothly overcoming natural obstacles: ravines, craters and hills with an angle from 25 ° to 30 °. More than 130 km was completed.
In test trials, the Russian tank participated together with the T-55 of the Peruvian army. Of course, the superiority of the new Tagil machine over a tankThe veteran was overwhelming.
Interesting fact: the mechanic-driver of the T-55 tank, having passed the 15-minute training, began to maneuver smoothly on the T-90С along the "Bone Cruz" range. This fact demonstrated the simplicity of mastering the Russian tank.
