VBO received 30 upgraded tanks T-72B3

First batch of new tanks T-72B3 entered the motorized rifle unit of the Eastern Military District (BBO), deployed in the Amur Region, Interfax-AVN reports referring to the head of the BBO press service, Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Gordeev.

“About 30 combat vehicles entered the Amur District Military Association. It is planned to completely re-equip the air defense units in the Amur region with new combat vehicles in the first half of 2014, ”Alexander Gordeyev said.

Delivery of military vehicles is carried out directly from the tank factory and has a guarantee of six thousand kilometers, the officer said.

The T-72B3 is a deep upgrade of the T-72 tank to the T-90 level. It has the latest fire control system with a digital ballistic computer and a new multi-channel sight. This device allows the gunner operator to find targets using optical and thermal imaging channels. In addition, the sight is equipped with a laser rangefinder and anti-tank missile control system, the agency’s source said.

t 72 is a good car! who knows when will be showing the armata !?

[ShturmKGB]

T-72B3 is not the best modernization, but apparently technologically "matured", which does not require a long buildup for production and implementation ...

Cheap and cheerful. More than enough to extend service life.

This is a saving on the lives of soldiers. India does not purchase T-72BZ, they for their soldiers acquire the best available.

T-72B3 is not the best modernization

+++ and I want to note separately about the dynamic protection ..... It seems that they stupidly jammed it.
PS
And the article here was on this topic.

[tilovaykrisa]

Tankers lay out a lot of negativity on this model, which is generally for upgrading the tank if the turret machine gun does not have a remote drive, for example, it has one on the T90, and even this naked one is compared with the t72.

[RUSSIA 2013]

T-72, the tank is good for its time, but let's honestly admit that it’s better to put the T-90, of course, I understand that it’s not all at once that we have a huge supply of T-72 tanks, it’s possible to sell T-72 countries to 3 countries of the world, and to buy t-90 for profit, because if you don’t upgrade, caramel will not become chocolate.

[Alekseev]

The idea of ​​such upgrades is good: to support the manufacturer and give it to the troops. even if "morally" not the coolest, but "financially" serviceable tank, it is fully consistent with the real threats.
This machine is not for tank "duels".
But, the execution of this order is ugly, not thought out, although the money allocated is not weak. Our investigative committee is clearly not coping, should the Gestapo, or what?

[Nevsky_ZU]

On the IN there has already been an article about the shortcomings of this modification of the T-72B3 in contrast to the previous upgrades of the T-72 in the field of remote sensing. The armor was better covered there. There are many holes for "ghosts" with RPG-7.

maybe summer 2014

The first batch of T-72B3 tanks entered the motorized rifle formation of the Eastern Military District (VVO), stationed in the Amur Region, Interfax-AVN reports with reference to the spokesman for the VVO, Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Gordeyev.

the head of the press service calls the t-72B3 a new tank. Horror. it was impossible to report that 30 modernized T-72 tanks of the B3 version had arrived at the BBO? Why should ordinary people be misled?

[Cherdak]

Where is the thermal imager, demons? Why didn’t they install the Agat-MDT sighting system? Again they will roll a barrel on Serdyukov, Lidea?

[avg]

In no case. It is necessary to separate Serdyukov from cutlets.

[Hon]

Speaking of stools. In the soap, the news of the closure of the Serdyukov case in connection with the amnesty. Stormy prolonged applause passing into a standing ovation.

[fzr1000]

And the DZ on the case in front is dumb. Even in Chechnya, she was there. Why don't they like to take care of personnel ??

[dm98]

and T80 will output? or is it in addition to the existing T80

[gallville]

In 1,5 years, the ground forces will switch to using tanks of the T-72 and T-90A type - Defense Ministry

In the Leningrad region, the T-80 is changed to B3

Rumor has it that tankers are unhappy. Especially in terms of chassis. Yes, and the Pine in B3 stuck to the place of the spare sight, spitting on ergonomics.

[wanderer_032]

They are going to cut, such as expensive to operate, etc.

[Akim]

T-90A? No, M-84AS.

[wanderer_032]

Hurried guys from UVZ making this modification.
The thermal imager burned as quickly as possible to push, but put on the conveyor in a run, and how the crew would spit.
When I looked at the photo, the question immediately appeared, the monitor blocks the azimuthal pointer of the tower (lower right corner) and the flywheel of the rotation mechanism, how can the gunner determine where the tower is turned and how to turn it if (God forbid, the failure of the electromechanism happens)?
Or maybe this photo angle is unsuccessful?

[Aleks tv]

Quote: wanderer_032

maybe this photo angle is unsuccessful?

Normal view, Alexander.
The azimuthalk is really (eprst) difficult to see, and the flywheel of turning the tower can be rotated more or less.

[Aleks tv]

I did not understand, is this a new car, or from a capital?
In theory, there should be capital, then cars are possible from the Ataman BTRZ.
On the MO site in the BBO section silence ...

I wonder where they will go in the Arum region?
Belogorsk? Yekaterinoslavka? Blagoveshchensk? ...
There, like the 38-I MSBr in Belogorsk, and all ...

[Serg 122]

Maybe the 59th separate order of Kutuzov’s motorized rifle brigade beyond Ussuriysky?

[wanderer_032]

It seems to me that the tanks are in exile, they were sent to the BBO.
Probably in other districts, the mat and complaints from the parts went (especially from the Central Military District) to UVZ, and the grandmas had already been spent.
And they decided that the Far East would be fine anyway, there has not been any new technology for a long time, the repairmen of the units (or crews) will bring them to their "mind" for themselves.

[Altona]

T-72B3 is a deep modernization of the T-72 tank to the T-90 level.
----------------------------------------------
Are you not ashamed yourself? And why not a word about the deep "cheapening"?

[alex-kon]

Yes, the campaign was reduced in price by the most.

[Leshka]

Well, as they say, you need to wash to drive well

[typhoon7]

GDP and DAM said that money for rearmament is reserved, that no crises will affect it. Judging by the modernization influenced, and even very much.

[STALGRAD76]

T 72 can and is good, but we are in the 21 century, we should have something more technologically advanced in the troops, if we speak with extreme restraint .......

[Kolyan 2]

I won’t talk about what I’ve seen, it’s described above, but with what enthusiasm the commander praises him see warned what's wrong and comrade major hello

[ParapaPanda]

MB with an eye on Armata save money? Let these stand, and then they will send a resource to the reserve with half and even 2 \ 3 resources.

[Lesorub]

Obviously weakened booking-especially the tower (I wonder who from the military accepted this development and claimed) - it seems that the partial covering of the tower with "pieces" of dynamical armor decided something! Guidance and detection devices on the upgraded machine !!!!!! installed (obviously not new designs and not competitive, especially with Western designs) !! Immediately striking is some kind of SCAM at the state level! THE TANK CLEARLY DIDN'T NEED SUCH MODERNIZATION !!!

[darksoul]

not so often the country pleases us with such a large-scale rearmament, it might be more expedient to take the T-90 understandably expensive, but the second time there may be no money or armata just wait until it is ready for the series, one god knows

[terminator_163]

We wanted the best - but it turned out as always!

[edbars]

When I heard that new tanks arrived in the unit, I was delighted with this notorious re-equipment with modern equipment, I thought at least the T90, but here the T72, the tank is not a good one, but it’s morally outdated, they need to be sold cheaply to third world countries, to the Syrians it would be better to give, money is not measured out, officials steal under the guise of rearmament or something (((...

[edbars]

Yes, even at the expense of the fact that the tank is naked, it is not so, now instead of dynamic outdoor units, there is a built-in dynamic armor "Contact-5".
