Work on the T-95 decided to stop

Armored embarrassment


Eurosatory 2010, the international arms exhibition ending in Paris today, brought an unpleasant surprise. While the leading powers introduced the latest models tanks, Russia refused to create the next generation of these combat vehicles.

The essence of the confusion is as follows: The state armaments program for 2007-2015 provided for the supply of an army of 770 - fundamentally new tanks. Rearmament should begin in 2011 year. It was by that date that Urals Design Bureau of Transport Engineering promised to present the fourth generation T-95 combat vehicle and an improved model of the serial T-90 with a new turret, gun and improved fire control system.

In April 2010, it became clear that the program would fail. Russian Deputy Minister of Defense Vladimir Popovkin stated that it was decided to stop the development work on the T-95, since for twenty years that they were underway, the tank was hopelessly outdated. On the allocation of funds for new development of speech has not yet been. Obviously, the development of armored vehicles is no longer a priority for our country.

Diametrically opposite opinion is held by foreigners. So, Israel introduced the model Merkava-4Mk. The tank for the first time in the world has an active defense system installed against all types of guided and unguided anti-tank missiles. Enhanced and armor protection, updated electronic filling.

Russian experts praised the Israeli defense product, calling it the best fighting machine in its class. At the same time, one of our experts noted that many of the ideas implemented in Israel were born in the USSR.

German Leopard-2A7 + surprised those present. In the ammunition of this tank are two types of shells: high-explosive and sub-caliber. According to German specialists, the Leopard-2A7 + armor is impenetrable to any types of cumulative warheads. In the frontal projection, the tank successfully confronts all types of Russian sub-caliber shots.

Of course, one can argue that in our time all problems should be solved not by armor and fire, but through diplomatic negotiations, or, at worst, with precision air strikes or special operations surgical operations. However, none of our ambitious neighbors on the geopolitical map of the world thinks so. Both Americans and Europeans and Chinese continue to improve their iron cavalry. Why did it happen?

At the end of the 90s, the BTV Academy developed the concept of a ground-air complex based on MBT of the T-90, T-80 types. Published several articles and that's it. Now Italians, Chinese, etc. are going in this direction, the modernized T-90 this complex is a completely different machine. The rest of the MBT are resting. But we have the next "reforms", but here we have to work.

[Baikal]

and for these democratically advanced ones, everything is like that — they’re already fraternizing with NATO and they threw Iran with s-300 supplies, although they all paid for it. they want to buy a boat from the French, and their own defense in the ass. instead of their magnificent tigers, Italian motor vehicles for the military are being talked about acquiring ... like this, they are slowly surrendering their homeland!

[yyyyva]

Baikal
the mistake is that not slowly but for a long time and in full swing they’ll hand over, Build and build for a long time and soon there will be a finishing stage

[Edward]

I DON'T HEAD TO BREAK AND BUY TANKS IN ISRAEL, CHEAPER WILL RECEIVE AND STEAL LESS

[Kudeyar]

Israeli tanks are too heavy. For them, the very thing is, their territory is not so large. In order for us to operate such vehicles, we need a very developed engineering part in addition to the tank brigade.

[Egor]

Who else would sell the "Merkava" to you? Unlike us, they do not sell their best weapons.

[Michael]

all beat the fleet with us !!!!

[Alex]

The fleet is with us ?! Look and calculate the composition of our fleets. In such cases, the sailors say: "Squadron fragments" ...

[cerg984]

We'll buy tanks from the Chinese, for our clever heads in the government, friends, no one wants to fight, though for some reason they are churning out supernova tanks and supernovae planes, etc. The country is profane, but it is "free" from the communists.

[dima522]

I feel again that I have to have Molotov cocktails and a bunch of pomegranates to beat off, like our grandfathers. In the battle for Moscow, I personally do not take part!

[honey]

No fleet! The MP brigade is cropped to the division! Only the box is beautiful.

[machmud]

... the turn of the Kuril Islands, the Caucasus, Kaliningrad ...

[shuravi]

Yes, the whole army is sold because our tanks are the best in the world and Americans from the EU will not allow us to do even better

[ferrarius]

WANT PEACE TO PREPARE FOR WAR!

THIS RULE IS ACTUAL AT ALL TIMES! WHAT THEY WERE IDEALISTIC.

[Maksim]

Yes, the wrong word is insulting, why do we understand and tolerate this?

[vfrcbv]

I won’t be surprised if the weapon will help us when we ourselves are fewer with all the elderly and old women than the Chinese army, and the remaining numbers are not allowed to reproduce by any work or hell no living conditions
there will be no one to cannon fodder to protect the possessions of the richMaksim,

[Eugene]

Everything is done through our ass ... they destroy the main striking force of the ground forces, and in the event of war our soldiers will again with a bunch of grenades under the tracks Merkav, Leopards and Abramsov go to bed .... that's just the question, WILL THERE BE ???

[Rafis]

Why are you surprised? A couple of three million dollars of bribe to the Minister of Defense of Russia saves a billion dollars in expenses in the US military commissar. It is necessary to reintroduce a firing squad for treason and espionage in favor of foreign powers. Then they will be at least a little bit afraid of the law. And now they’re not afraid: if the owners help you to pay for a lawyer and buy judges, also corrupt ones.

[Alex]

Our commander in chief probably does not represent Russia at war. He is going to surrender it without a fight. And the less the RUSSIAN SOLDIER will have good DOMESTIC WEAPONS, the better according to his partner leaders. Behind the beautiful speeches on television, the United Russia hide a deliberate breakup of the Armed Forces and the Navy. Soon Russia will not have its only allies.

[NICHOLAS]

NO VOTE TO VOTE FOR OUR TWO FAVORITE PRESIDENTS !!! YES FOR THE UNITED RUSSIA WITH WHICH WE ARE IN THE UNIFFERENT MIXED!

[Lucefer]

I just don’t have one word right now, what should I do? Our tanks have always been the best since World War II

[Dmitriy]

we’re just used to believe in illusions !!! that we are the best!
In August 2007, it was announced that about 100 thermal imaging cameras of the Catherine FC model, a French manufacturer of Thales, were announced for installation on T-90 tanks of the Russian army. We will soon arm foreign states, in particular France with their shit! This is only the beginning, get stronger ...

[Skif]

What to prepare for ?! disbanded the best and combat-ready units of the GRU and Airborne Forces, abandoned the main striking force of the ground forces, only bits of the fleet remained. Tens of millions of dollars were spent on repairs to the recently refurbished Ministry of Defense and a moronic uniform from Yudashkin, as well as a car for bureaucrats from the Ministry of Defense, and there is no money for sensible modern weapons. ! ! What other evidence of corruption of our government is needed ?!

[isr]

The GRU and the Airborne Forces have never been the "main striking force" in any war in the entire history of Russia or the USSR.

[Artem]

This is not such a modern weapon! It is inferior in terms of foreign technology to leading countries! This is just what we know about this case, and what else could they tear or crawl is scary to imagine! Such is our policy! This is an extra waste of money on this tank, anyway, just a little that he would not have rectified the situation!

[max]

I DO NOT BELIEVE! our tanks are the best! in tests on the t-90 they fired the most modern projectiles, both cumulative and sub-cyber. after 15 hits, he independently drove to the technical point for verification. NOT ONE APPARANT HAS NOT BEEN PUNCHED! and on patency all these vaunted leopards and marcwells for scrap are necessary. our best! this info appears from foreign media that degrade our technology. they themselves have equipment of the same years as ours (80-90) and, like us in this century, improved tanks of those years appear (mainly electric filling). and be patriots at the end of the conf.

[Anton]

they’ll again lock one hundred tanks to the Siberian edge and forget until the next recount or recalculation of the diminished salyarka and there is something to be proud of - superjet and French tank optics, and we still need chips without them, even iron can’t do normal motors with normal traction and noise, not talking about asphalt tracks [although the roads in Russia are only for Putin's viburnum and tank troops] and not counting the soldiers in uniform frozen out, of course not from Stalin, but from a blue community called couturier yudashkin

[Castatin]

In short, citizens, as if we were not worried about the Russian defense industry, it would not grow stronger. All the developments that Russia allegedly is proud of are those of the former USSR.
- And what next is Uncle Putin (Seven Medvedev)?
- And then there is nothing! Further money is needed). But they are not. But there are minds. About the nave and raw materials without comment!
- The idea, we will put them into battle.) Minds, they say we have a lot.) United Russia answered.
It is easier for the Russian government to equip Russia with inflatable equipment than to think about the future of Russia. It’s a pity, it’s a pity, and such antlers were launched in 2005.
PS
It was ALL guys. But there is!
You hope not blind!

[SOLDIERru]

What really is the T-95. At UVZ in N. Tagil, the tank workshop was closed. So, now the production of the T-90 is curtailed.

[ddr]

Seeing the battle from the side, everyone imagines himself a strategist ...
It seems that many smart people have gathered here who know how to save the defense and the army. And those who are now driving like all fools and thieves, besides? You gentlemen apparently do not even have a close idea of ​​the full scale of the problems of the army and defense industry. There you need to pour in as much money as the whole army of thieves can neither steal nor spend. Eliminating all the thieves will not solve the problem !!! There is really little money in the country for a full-fledged reform, so you have to prioritize - strategic weapons over combined arms, aviation over land equipment, etc. And that you are attached to this new tank. If they do not do it, then it is not a priority at the moment. And you don't have to look to the west - there are still PR people there. They need to sell their equipment and they will tell you anything for this. There are no fundamentally new tanks with significant advantages. They added one letter and loudly declared "modernized", like buy. And you bought it and let's blame everything and everyone indiscriminately, they raised the panic - "everything is gone, the plaster is being removed, the client is leaving ..."

[SOLDIERru]

max,I DO NOT BELIEVE! our tanks are the best! in tests on the t-90 they fired the most modern projectiles, both cumulative and sub-cyber. after 15 hits, he independently drove to the technical point for verification. NOT ONE APPARANT HAS NOT BEEN PUNCHED!

Although I am a little bit, I still understand armored vehicles. And to tell the magician that the tank cannot withstand 15 hits, this is complete nonsense. Yes, such tests, and someone will not. Since, due to the layering of damage, it will be impossible to understand the damaging effects of each ammunition. And the fact that the T-90, A1M2, Leopard-2. They belong to the same generation. One must be aware. Western tanks have a lot more to do with modernization.

ddr,
It turns out the theft of another penny is more prioritized than conventional weapons. And try to restore the destroyed production. Moreover, order for each Georgian and terrorist to naughty with strategic nuclear weapons.
Having such tremendous raw materials and human resources, to nod that there are not enough funds is ridiculous.

[MAYER]

ALREADY TAKE A WORD, IF DON'T GIVE GOD THE WAR WILL BEGIN, THEN ON THE FIELD EXCEPT THE RUSSIAN SOLDIER, NO ONE WILL BE ANYTHING MORE. ATTENTION THOSE OTHERS SIT IN THE WARM ...
CALL ME SUCH A RESIDENCE
I did not see such a corner
WHERE YOUR SOWER AND RESCUE
WHERE THE RUSSIAN MAN WOULD NOT SUFFER ....

[Angel of Death]

Stop whining BABS! Take your fist eggs and topple these traitors! Until they finally destroyed our homeland!

[Paul]

There are a lot of still living witnesses of the events that took place in Ossetia. It’s stupid to discontinue our superiority. The T-95 tank, one of the modern and undeniably misguided our commanders, is not interested in the priority of our weapons in this case. And, quite another .... And I sincerely sorry that for all this they fucking ... you have to pay a very expensive price !!! I love my Motherland! And only having a strong Army, powerful weapons we will force to respect the probable enemy of US!

RS. I personally witnessed the sea trials of the T-90 Omsk tank at Svetly training ground it was something !!!. The power of this bolt was impressive. We were soldiers and looked at all this with wild delight. And for the T-95 there can be no question IT is generally out of competition. To close such a direction is fundamentally wrong !!!

[Saha]

I served in the USSR and they told us that a tank lives in modern combat for 5 minutes. From history, we know German tankers were very afraid of the IL-2 attack aircraft. The tank outlived its power in the 21st century, these air force behind the attack aircraft [MI-28N, KA -52 and flying BMP MI-24] and SU-25 planes. In Bai, they perform tasks faster and more efficiently and strike force is much higher. The prospect for mobile flying devices.

I’ll add here a rocket that will destroy any modern tank designing and pasting a lot cheaper than a modern tank

[Survivor]

which tanks? what are you talking about? we need to order a uniform from Yudashkin, sew new caps ..., and you're talking about some takni .. :))
In our country, as they say .. "The fool is getting rich with a dummy .."

[Andrei]

Russia hold on to nuclear power. And most likely it will support life and develop our nuclear weapons. While we have nuclear weapons it is not profitable for us to go to war =). I know that many of our missiles and launchers are in some ways outdated and soon to be disposed of, but the government is not fools and they are taking action and will hold on to nuclear weapons with both hands !!!!!
