Popular Mechanics: Watching the T-90, it's hard not to admire this fighting vehicle

The American magazine Popular Mechanics has published material about the Russian military tank third generation T-90, which notes that despite the fact that this machine will leave the world stage after the release of T-14 Armata, it certainly deserves admiration.

“These days the battle tank T-90 no longer rules the ball when it comes to Russian heavy military equipment ... the new pearl of Russian tanks today is Armata. However, watching T-90, it’s hard not to admire this fighting machine, ”quotes an excerpt from RIA material. "News".

In support of the publication leads the video with a shot of the tank at the time of taking off the ground. It is noted that the shake-up of the camera was not due to the fact that a huge car landed on the ground.



“While the T-90 weighs almost 46 tons, that“ shake-up ”that you see is the shock wave from a shot in the air of a smooth-bore gun in the 125 mm,” notes the publication.

T-90 - the main Russian battle tank, which was developed in the late 1980-x early 1990-'s. It was put into service in 1992 year. In the period from 2001 to 2010, the year was the leader in sales on world arms markets.

Well, finally, wait!
They used to blame everything.
Now flogged!
Are you dissuading from T-14? Like, this one is good with you, why do you need one more?

No, they are looking forward to the dominance of the T-90 in Syria ...

You are a big plus for your comment, but you could say a little differently: justify the loss of their most super-duper unique "Abrams"

Thank you for evaluating the comment, but it is important to note that in this case, the Americans have already prepared a cliche, the answer:

But no. Abrams is not such a bad tank. It was created as a response to the avalanche of inexpensive and well-armed Soviet tanks (and of other countries of the Warsaw Treaty). His main task should have been actions from ambushes, support of fortified areas. In short, positional battles. Therefore, the gun is rifled, and the power reserve is not so large, and the reservation is mainly the upper part of the front hemisphere. This is a tank for defense, not for attack. This is what the Germans taught Americans by fighting with us.
Our T-72 / T-90 is an analogue of the darkness of the Horde riders. Lightweight, fast, well-protected, but most importantly - massive. Because inexpensive and very, very (!) Easy to use. And that means reliable. This is what we ourselves learned by defeating the Germans.

Z.Y. Even now, I could teach any Turkmen to shoot from my 72 river where he served in the 87-88 year. He would teach in two or three days not just to shoot, but also to hit if he had finished at least 8 classes. And if he hadn’t finished, then in four days. Hуthe bottom car was. T-90 is probably no worse.

And the T-90MS is generally a good machine ... drawing analogies with fighter aircraft, then Armata is PAK FA, and T-90MS is SU-35S

Respect and respect, operator-gunner T-72! Trans-Baikal Military District, p. Peschanika!

[proletarian]

But what kind of "super-duper", just a heavy tank, and without any additional. bells and whistles, "s" after all, "zanadto" tight-fisted in terms of supplying "conditional" allies of normal technology always "shake off" frank "junk"; so in my opinion, the "Abrams" in the Middle East are just scrap metal which instead of being melted down went to war (something like this the same as the "English" "Saxons" to Ukraine).

Syria is now the number one topic becoming. They will gradually forget about hohland ...

will not work, we will have both T-14 and T-90s !!! T-90 will compete on an equal footing with NAT's "menagerie" !!!

[marlin1203]

Better no one fights with anyone. Why are you so bloodthirsty. Let us drag our "partners" to the tank biathlon first. There they will do it to the fullest and realize everything themselves.

[Ajent cho]

Let us drag our "partners" to the tank biathlon first.

I think I know how one could try: through money. There are a lot of ways invented (all sorts of Olympiads, professional boxing, Formula 1, etc.), you just need to take the appropriate one and modify it, based on the conditions.
Punds are greedy for money, as a result, the loot will win anyway. Well, we will look at fascinating events.

And here, Alexei, I will disappoint you. In the program of modernization and rearmament of the RF Ministry of Defense, a decision was made to further modernize the 72 series, the T-90, not a word. Why dont know. Already wrote on this topic, but there were no comments.

God forbid, of course, but ... if it happens, we will not fight in the Aprmats or even in the 90s, but on the T-72 and T-80, even the T-55 will be used

[propaganda NO]

I completely agree. something is not said about the number and percentage of the T-90 to the total number of armored vehicles. So the bulk of this is the T-72, without additional systems that improve the survivability of the tank. and even in the event of a large-scale war, bridgeheads ("tank fists") with military equipment will be destroyed by atomic missiles.

Respect to the defense industry. Death to the Abrams, anyway from the weapons of which tank, most importantly, from a tank of Soviet or Russian production.

As they say, THEIR TANKS FOR LIFE, AND OURS FOR WAR. At the same time, Armata, I’m sure will be a fighter in the cube. And in the west, something comparable will appear only after 10 years

[31rus]

Again hurray-patriotism, firstly, according to the designers of "Armata", this is a platform, and the T-14 "Armata" is a tank, and secondly, the criterion "best" is conditional and this applies to everything, according to intelligence from Great Britain, there are up to 147 tanks in the territory controlled by ISIS " Abrams "are in various technical conditions (mostly badly damaged), so there is a high probability that our T-90 and Abramsa will meet, but for some reason everyone is focusing on meeting these tanks, while the militants also have a lot of T-72s, which just the same in Syria, wait and see

[BLACK-SHARK-64]

Lord !!! There is a time for everything .... Armata is the tank of the future, the T-90 is the present, but if something happens, they will complement each other, do not hesitate ....

[31rus]

It is unlikely that "Armata" is a new concept of combat. Autonomous sections with tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, air defense systems, heavy flamethrower and artillery systems, supplies are supposed, autonomous actions, this is how the "Armata system" will operate

[33 Watcher]

The only trouble is that the militants do not have tank schools and are not expected. So, as flew on carts (gan-trucks), so will be, tanks for them are useless trash, especially damaged. And about ura-patriotism ... Who are you trying to scare with broken abrashkas without crews?

Do you think that not a single professional military man joined ISIS, that IS fighters did not receive, among other things, training in American weapons and equipment? Where did their military victories come from, which were very serious within the region?

[Cube123]

Perhaps it's not the military who joined. No wonder it was reported that during the attack on the marines of the Russian Federation "The captured militants had plans for an air base and satellite images with marked points of important military facilities." ISIS has its own companions?

Why would he "to leave the world stage after the appearance of the T-14 Armata"? He is 20 years old to jump.

[Bayonet]

Popular mechanics is a very interesting magazine. By the way, it’s probably hard to call what is printed with us an American magazine. In November 2002, the first issue of the magazine in Russian was released. The first time in the issues was from 4 to 8 translated articles borrowed from the American version of the journal; since 2006, the number of translations does not exceed two articles in the issue. All content is entirely created by the editors of the Russian Popular Mechanics. Can you imagine that in the American version of the magazine, they will sing laudatory odes to our T-90?

Well, when they learn to forge steel and make the right torsion bars for example ... then maybe they will catch up. For the abrams, such jumps are simply not possible. The spine in his pants gets enough sleep.

[33 Watcher]

this machine will leave the world stage after the release of the T-14 Armata
Yes, do not worry, yet, will not leave soon. Given that in a number of countries the T-55s are still in service, you can still admire the forty years. And bump into him somewhere else in Africa.
Many countries now can only dream of such tanks. Yes, what is far to go? Won Ukraine restores rotten 64 matches, for them the T-90 is a dream, now a pipe dream, true So, what will you see in his case, do not hope after the armies receive Armat for scrap, we will not let the Syrians, for example, will leave two hundred, and your "back yard", I think, will buy

There is no need to treat the ruin with such disdain - the people there are no worse. Their "Oplot" and "Bulat" are very serious modernizations of a good car.

[Anchonsha]

I can imagine what it is like to hear the US military-industrial complex and the very famous German creators of armored monsters ... But we have no money for "Armata" now, and therefore let it be finalized so that it becomes a real pearl.

[Vladimir 1964]

Popular Mechanics magazine is quite popular among specialists, and such advertising of our tanks is pleasant for readers and useful for our manufacturers. By the way "Uralvagonzavod" is in the West, and not only very popular. Many Americans do not know where Ukraine is located, but they know about this our enterprise.
