[Regnum] The T-90M "Proryv" tank, produced by Uralvagonzavod, received high praise from Russian military personnel in the special operation zone. This was reported on May 27 by Andrey Terlikov, the T-90M project manager and the company's general designer.
He recalled that the prototype of the Breakthrough, the T-90 tank, was created in the 1990s.
“Its service life is at least 50 years,” TASS quotes Terlikov as saying.
According to the assessment of Russian military personnel operating the T-90M on the battlefield, the vehicles demonstrate the highest effectiveness in carrying out combat missions in the Air Defense Zone, the general designer said.
The T-90M tank is a major upgrade of the T-90 main battle tank. Development of the T-90M began in the early 2010s. The developers first unveiled the T-90M at the Army-2018 International Military-Technical Forum. The first vehicles were delivered to the Russian Armed Forces in the spring of 2020, and serial production began in early 2021.
In turn, the T-90 is a deeply modernized version of the T-72B tank, which is considered one of the best in the world in the West.
In early May, the American military magazine Miltary Watch Magazine reported that Russia is ahead of Western countries in the field of tank counter-drone systems. For example, the anti-drone capabilities of the T-90M and T-72B3M tanks have been significantly improved by the integration of the Arena-M active protection system.
