Omsk plant ahead of schedule fulfilled the state order for the modernization of T-72B3 tanks

Omsktransmash OJSC (part of Uralvagonzavod Corporation) ahead of schedule fulfilled the 2014 defense order for overhaul and modernization coming from the troops tanks T-72 B3, transmits TASS with reference to the press service of the enterprise.

As part of the state order, the repair of the T-80 tanks was also completed. The repair was carried out under a contract with the SPC Uralvagonzavod.

According to Igor Lobov, Director General of the Omsk Plant, “the supply geography of repaired and modernized armored vehicles has expanded this year - T-72B3 have been delivered to military units of all military districts of the country”. True, most of the tanks sent to the Far East and the Novgorod region.

In addition, for the timely execution of the order, the plant supplied the tracks and other components to other plants belonging to the corporation Uralvagonzavod.

At present, the Omsk residents supply vehicles to the troops on account of the defense order for 2015.

Alex, thanks for the comment. Indeed, some modifications of the T - 90 are very similar to the modernized T - 72. At the core is the same machine.

3 photos are T72B3 - at T-90 The curtains are in place of the bare DZ holes. These "holes" this chip is exactly T72B3.

Dmitry, do you think that only ON THIS sign can it be possible to distinguish the T-90?
Well, look at least at the gunner’s day and night sight, Curtain, DZ, VLD, smoke exhaust receivers ... well, if you really want to believe that this is the T-72Б3, then take a look at the commander’s device and ZPU ...
Well, what else can I say ... then probably this is not a question for me, then drive to the Indians - they will explain to you.

Very many tankers criticize modernization for obviously outdated equipment, the poor ergonomics of crew equipment and the lack of increased armor protection.
There was a very good overview with a photo of this car, personally I don’t understand the decision to remove the remote control of the machine gun, the Syrian tankers speak of him as a necessary thing.

[Juborg]

Why the old stuff to drive? Campaign loot washed !!! They can’t offer anything new. But you can send a Russian soldier to the slaughter in junk, so what? Why insecure obsolete machine. This B3 has half-meter holes in the frontal and aft protection, and the roof is generally bare.

[Alexey RA]

Quote: juborg

Why the old stuff to drive? Campaign loot washed !!! They can’t offer anything new.

It's simple: the development of "Armata" takes time and money. At the same time, until recently, there were practically no modern tanks in the army. Purchases of T-90s were in homeopathic quantities. And at this time in the ranks were "bald" T-62 and even T-55. It turned out that the main part of the armored vehicles was actually incapable of combat - in modern combat, the value of these tanks was negative.

The following option was chosen: instead of "spot" deliveries of 2 battalion sets of T-90s per year, start a massive modernization of the T-72B to B3 (they could have been made three or four times more than the T-90). Thus, it was possible to tighten the bulk of the armored vehicles to a level just below the T-90. And the rest of the funds from the T-90 program were thrown into the "armature".

[g1v2]

One new tank will not replace 10 old ones. The basis of our T72 troops and their modifications cannot be replaced in the near future, but it is quite possible to strengthen their capabilities with modernization. We need mass, and not a couple of new booster machines. Over time, Armata and others will appear, but these will be small parties for a long time. According to the number of tanks, we are in the first place for a long time and this provides us with superiority over even newer, but smaller enemy tanks. But in the air, for example, we are weaker, and here we have to catch up and buy in bulk if not the newest, but cheaper and comparable cars in terms of parameters. It is necessary to rearm the army faster, and not to trump a couple of new cars. It seems to me like that.

[Lord of the Sith]

Upgrading the T-72B to the T-72B3 level costs 52 million rubles in 2013 prices, of which 30 million is spent on overhauling the tank, the remaining amount is spent on the purchase of new devices selected by the customer.

Means of observation and communication

A multi-channel Sosna-U sight developed by the Belarusian enterprise Peleng was installed on the tank. The TPD-K1 of the 1A40 complex from the T-72B tank was left in the OMS. The sight of the tank commander is TKN-3MK, which is a modernization of the Soviet TKN-3 sight with the Double system and the 2nd generation image intensifier. The communication system consists of a VHF radio station of the R-168-25U-2 “Aqueduct” range. It includes 2 transceivers. Provides open, disguised or classified radio communications. It has been produced by the Ryazan Radio Plant since 2005.

Chassis and engine

Caterpillar tracks traditional for the T-72 family, replaced with new ones with a parallel hinge to improve performance and increase resource. The tank is equipped with V-shaped multi-fuel four-stroke diesel engines V-84-1 with a capacity of 840 liters. with. with a specific power of 18,88 liters. S. / t., overhauled.

weaponry

The gun is a 125 mm 2A46M-5 smoothbore gun. The gun received improved lead-type ammunition shells. Anti-aircraft machine gun lost the remote control and transferred to manual mode.

In aggregate, of the innovations, only the Belarusian Sosna-U sight and modern digital communication systems, everything else 30 years ago from the base model. There are no GLONASS receivers for the crew to determine the location of the tank. Instead of the new V-92S2 engines (1000 hp), there are B-84-1 engines with a capacity of 840 liters. with. after major repairs. According to the GABTU, the installation of old engines in tanks occurred due to the late conclusion of a contract with Uralvagonzavod. Instead of the modern “Relict” dynamic defense, the old “Contact-5” stands. T-72M1, designed for Algeria at the same price, is equipped much better. In the Russian version of modernization, electronics is far behind modern tanks.

In the future, it is possible to equip the Kalina JMA, which is installed on the T-90SM tank and the 93 hp V-1130 engine.

[Sergei-1982]

If I'm not mistaken on modernization machines in 2014, it costs 1130 lot, at least another machine participated in the biotlon and they said that from 2014 the cars will go to these configurations.

[max702]

I sincerely hope that tankers will not have to fight on this "modernization" .. Maybe it will cost and the resource of these machines will be spent exclusively on exercises, because in a real battle all this "novye" will come out sideways .. And I would very much like to hear the names of those who this "modernization" "accepted, approved and signed So that their names are known not only by the firing squad, but also by other citizens of the country. And I don’t doubt that this will happen (the shooting of the guilty, if you still have to fight).

[Alexey RA]

Your options?
Continue purchasing T-90s with 2 battalion sets per year? And how much would it take to rearm the army at such a rate? And if you consider that the T-90 is also a modernized T-72, which was simply given a new index? And "armata" will not be at least until 2015?

Do you remember what our army rode on before the decision on the T-72B3 was made? In Georgia, "bald" T-62s went into battle. T-55 was rolled out on Sakhalin. It was necessary to urgently raise the average level, and not rearm 2 battalions a year.

I'm not saying that the modernization shouldn't have been done, but that HOW it was done! Exclusively on ot..is and in order to cut the dough! The example is given "T-72M1, intended for Algeria at the same price, is equipped much better" and this is for a foreign customer (with the corresponding taxes, kickbacks, customs payments). Could it have been done much better for the native country? Can! Regarding the t-62, t-55. This is the fault of our grief strategists, there are enough tanks in Russia, the t-72 and t-80, but they are expensive and their generals feel sorry for them .. So the fuel oil is fighting on the t-62 and t-55 all questions to our military leaders ..

With the Algerian tank is not so simple. The fact is that this amount includes the cost of modernization only from the Russian side:

Algeria does not disassemble its tank "to the screw". The actual work on the "capital" is carried out by local specialists at their local TRZ. The Russian side only supplies components and carries out work directly on their installation and setting-up

http://topwar.ru/24679-t-72b3-kak-zerkalo-rossiyskoy-deystvitelnosti.html

That is, the real cost of T-72M1 of Algeria is higher due to the work carried out by the Algerian side.

[Alexey RA]

Nowhere. This is a technique from storage bases - T-72 of previous modifications, which are upgraded to B3.

In terms of modernization, practically nothing new !!! The armor protection is especially depressing ... When there is a remote control "Relikt", put "Contact-5" ... These "figures" who made the decision to install the "Contact-5" DZ in this modernization should be put into a tank and shot from grenade launchers with a tandem warhead !!!!!!!!!!

[Znayka]

I read the comments to the article ... In the opinion of many, it is normal to change very old junk for modernized junk ..? Think about it, the tanks are not robots, but people! The front hemisphere of the T-72 B3 is not protected, under the turret ring is already two grenades from RPGs can "fly in" ..., "Contact-5" DZ with the current ATGMs with a tandem warhead is generally an anachronism, I'm not talking about (God forbid) "Javelin" ...

Explain, experts. Why are five modernized ones better than one new one? Or on the principle of "throw away anyway"?

[Magic archer]

we have a huge number of T-72! And it’s much cheaper and easier to upgrade them than building new tanks! According to the official version, we are waiting for Armata. When it appears, all funds will be invested in the purchase of new tanks

[Penelope]

Work on the modernization of the T-72B3 tanks will be enough for many years to come, so that the plant will not remain without work.

Quote: Drew

Explain, experts. Why are five modernized ones better than one new one? Or on the principle of "throw away anyway"?

Russian tank T-90A
costs about 3-3,2 million dollars.
Its modernization - all the same 1-2 million dollars.
That is, a Western tank for the same money can
upgrade 5-10 times. Russian - 1-1,5
times. Or in another way: instead of two modernized
You can buy one new one with an initially higher
resource and combat potential and still remain for parts.
That’s the whole point. But this is relatively new
Russian tanks. And if you take the situation with the modernization of the old ones,
still Soviet-built T-72? VNIITM conducted feasibility studies
modernization. According to him, it’s still somehow advisable to upgrade the T-72B
but not earlier cars. In the end, the cost of modernization is several times higher
their residual value. All this is a consequence of the original conceptual difference.
"with us" and "with them". On the other hand, if we compare the concepts already, it is still unknown
which is better - to have a high modernization potential (in terms of its economic
component) or in the course of hostilities lose more expensive tanks (and there is no indestructible equipment).
In the end, it’s not technology that wins wars, but economics. Here we take for example the recent Libya.
I really remember the shot - the burnt T-72M1 from the close burst of a guided bomb mass
judging by the funnel 500-1000kg. How much does this destroyed tank cost? And how much is this bomb?

It's like throwing gold bullion into ants. And imagine a larger conflict?
That is why the search for a compromise is important and the concept and strategy are very important, which we do not have now - everything is based on personal "wishes"
the one in power

[Drew]

damn, seriously, everything is like

[Sergei-1982]

Modernization of Western cars is also very expensive, so they can be upgraded to Sabra 60 mil.dol, Abrams of the first models to the last about 4 mil.

[Alekseev]

Quote: Drew

explain specialists. Why are five upgraded ones better than one new?

What is new?
The T-72B3 is a "budget" upgrade, it is far from better than an expensive 72-ki upgrade called the T-90.
Its task is to maintain the tank fleet in good condition and give work, and therefore Uralvagonzavod to develop.
With the money saved at the same time, launch a new generation tank in the series, the so-called Armata.
I also remind you that modernization is carried out during the overhaul, and not at the repair plant, but at the flagship of the tank industry.
Overhaul of MBT (unlike a car, for example) is when it is completely disassembled, cleaned by sandblasting, primed, painted and assembled from new (repaired, tested) components and assemblies.

[Loner_53]

[Drew]

but with the frames, something full! Neither schools nor those wishing to enter them. No jobs again, in our city, at least.

[Nonik]

This is certainly good, but is it necessary at all? The article was that modernized was somehow of little use. It was necessary to concentrate immediately on Armata and reduce the cost of its production. 400 million is actually a fox price. It is justified only if it is invincible in principle and does not penetrate at all due to active protection. But this is unreal?

[Sergei-1982]

It was necessary to concentrate immediately on Armata and reduce the cost of its production

Yeah, they concentrated on project 22350 and so that urgently had to buy 11356.

[ilya_oz]

The normal price, if there will be a new DZ, an active defense system with radars, an uninhabited tower, etc. etc.

[shtraib]

It is necessary to order upgrades more expensive, more equipped.

[A1L9E4K9S]

Quote: Drew

Why are five upgraded ones better than one new?

But is it possible that new T-72s are produced, the modernized old ones will last ten years, and then they will arrive on the Armat platform.

[AKM9]

Proceed from the fact that no more than a thousand units will enter service with the Armata, and the main part of the fleet will be T-72B3, so they could modernize better. The frontal part of the tower is not covered at all, and the militants in Syria fell from RPGs to much more protected places. An article about the T-72B3, but I want to look at the T-90SM.

[Gayver]

Until the year 20, they said they would buy 2300 Armat tanks and this is more than a thousand!

[activator]

But the modernization is not the most successful, as far as I know, it seems like the most advanced version was the slingshot.

[kelevra]

Well, why modernize, why not try to maximize the upgrade of the tank fleet with new T-90 tanks

[Alexey RA]

Because the T-90 can be purchased at 2 battalion units per year. A T-72B3 - three times more.
We simply did not have time to re-equip the T-90 army at such a pace - it was urgent and massive to rearm units from old vehicles, which often no longer had combat value. Remember 42 msd in the war 08.08.08 - T-62, and without screens and DZ. And this is in one of the 7 divisions that passed through the documents as combat-ready. This is some ... shame. (C)

Moreover, the T-90 itself is a modernization of the T-72.

[Ivan 63]

The news passes in one hour with an order (additional) for the modernization of 31 Migs in a number of 50 machines - I think not only to sober up the "partners": both machines have a modernization resource (especially the Mig-31) and of course this measure quite reasonable.

[stranik72]

The modernization of the MiG-31 will be of the same "quality" as that of the T-72, that is, budgetary, and even worse in terms of the reliability of the "new" equipment. Problems need to be solved comprehensively and, first of all, to tell the truth, like staff members about their YARs, this is the only way to make our "tops" work, maybe. There was hope for Rogozin, but as it turned out, they all looked the same, only a talking shop.

[Siberia 9444]

Previously, Omichi thundered T 80U and now only modernization, it is a pity, but let it be better than nothing. Omsk from Novosibirsk a big hello!

And what will 40-50 year old men fight in case of what? We have served for two or more years, and for many, a computer is something supernatural. And for young animals and new tanks enough. The war is won not by regular military personnel, but by reservists.

[stranik72]

"The war is won not by career soldiers, but by reservists."
Well, you surprised, the modern war is a war of professionals, and time is the main indicator here, it will not reach the reservists. And even in no war did the reservists win, it was just that some of them had time to become professionals, and even the top command staff, certainly, was the personnel. The formula began the Second World War, time will not work for people now, remember the regiment is 4 days, the division is 10-12, the corps is up to a month old, and so on, by this formula we got to Moscow.

From chip cleaning to tank construction, Cyril and Vladimir went through all the stages on the way to their goal. The work was not easy. Military discipline and attention to every detail require constant concentration and, of course, at first it was not without errors.

The plant management decides to upgrade the tank hero.
