Today I saw him in a box, menacing and powerful, a village with an enemy shot on the move for about 40 km / h, on an unpaved road, impressive, dived, flew - handsome

And what kind of new screens does he have?
In them DZ is installed?

[figwam]

I understand that the ammunition is now located in the rear of the tower?

[Yars]

very good, for faster to the Army such

On the back (outer) part of the tower in our tanks, according to tradition, a drawer for spare parts (spare tools and accessories) is hung. Basically, it contains: a kit for cleaning the bore (rods, bannikas, brushes), hoses for pumping fuel from additional barrels, MZA (small-sized refueling apparatus) for the same purposes, and every little thing (spare parts for radio stations, guns, machine guns and etc.). It is made of aluminum alloys and simultaneously plays the role of additional anti-cumulative protection of the stern of the tower. Also, air supply and exhaust pipes from the OPVT kit (equipment for underwater driving of tanks) are usually placed in the same place, but something is not visible.

Is this ZIP necessary?
In fact, it is always empty. All confused and stolen
On Western tanks, he is also not

[Siberian]

It depends on the commander, and this is the attitude to the safety of company property. A trifle, of course, is always lost and rubbed, and the main spare parts are in place. The one that is in the aft box - without it, I personally do not imagine the normal life of the crew in battle or on the march. After the battle you need to clean the gun, you won’t wait until someone arrives and brings you the necessary supplies.

In my opinion, a promising infantry fighting vehicle should differ from MBT only in lighter weapons (57 mm.) And layout (front location MTO)

[Ivan Tarasov]

Yes you are right.
However, the fuel consumption parameter also needs to be considered.
Probably, a modular scheme (of a single object) is needed in order to select the optimal parameters.
One thing is clear, guns 125 and 30 mm yesterday.
Under the new tools and you need to select the parameters of promising samples.

[APASUS]

The most interesting thing should begin after the exhibition closes. I hope we will announce which models and in what quantity our MO will purchase.
