US media about the appearance of “Almaty” in Syria: Russians were very cautious

47

Russian authorities have announced the testing of the latest T-14 tanks in the Syrian Arab Republic. However, no specific data was provided, writes The Drive.

With the exception of a small number of BMPT Terminator, Russia had not previously sent heavy armored vehicles to Syria for its needs. Several T-90 tanks that guard the Khmeimim airbase and do not participate in hostilities do not count. Even if a certain amount of T-14 Armata was indeed aimed at the war, the Russian military was definitely very cautious and hardly involved a new one. machinery in real battles. No one needs combat losses.



It is well known that terrorist groups are actively using anti-tank systems. Yes, it can be stated that the T-14 has improved passive armor, and also has a modern active defense system that is designed to combat ATGMs. It's true. The special design of the tank also made the crew less vulnerable by placing soldiers in an armored capsule and making the tower uninhabited. Nevertheless, there is a possibility that, under a certain set of circumstances, the tank may be destroyed, which will become an extremely undesirable event for the Kremlin.

Sending the T-14 to Syria, even for a short time, can still be useful for Russia's "propaganda goals," writes The Drive. This fact will demonstrate the country's continued commitment to an advanced tank project, despite the existing problems. But they are. In 2015, authorities announced that by 2020 there will be at least 100 T-14 tanks in the army. That did not happen.

    This really is not the case. Yes It is also true that dozens of "Zumvalts" plying the vastness of the world's oceans are not observed. request If I am not mistaken, it was planned to build 30 units. Plans do not always coincide with reality. But something tells me that Armata is closer to reality and the plans will be implemented, albeit with a delay.
    The Americans themselves are better off taking care of the health of African Americans, for Abrams "bio-automatic loaders", due to social reasons, are much more likely to contract coronavirus.

      Yeah, the super-duper Su-57 fighters have plowed the expanses of the Bolshoi Theater with entire squadrons. wink As for the widely advertised Armata tank, it has become obsolete by 30 years before it went into production. negative

        You can’t imagine how dear to me the opinion of such a major military expert as you is. laughing As he does his fighter, then you will be clever. Yes Some countries as old as the Bolshoi Theater are capable of producing such equipment, but they do not. The F-22 has long been out of production, but it was designed for a long time, it will not be possible to resume production. The F-35 can hardly be called a fighter, a subsonic slug creeping in fear that it will be found by the "big boys", the only hope to have time to shoot first, on the sly. So he is being snatched by the close allies. Even purchases for the Marine Corps are almost halved, one reliance on you. Buy for health. Yes

        As for the widely advertised Armata tank, it has become obsolete by 30 years before it went into production.

        Really? belay And what now, the last word in tank building? Abrams with firemanExcuse me, charging in the carriage?

            Both that and another - products of the military industry, comparison of production plans, really made samples and terms of program implementation are quite correct. A good example is that the voiced plans and the actual production are two big differences.

        Only around the world they don’t think so, and as it became known about the appearance of the T-14 Armat, the same French and Germans teamed up to create a new generation tank as opposed to the T-14. So, there is no need to carry frank nonsense.

        T-14 platform, that is, according to the old terminology of the USSR, a research "Object", on the basis of which, upon completion of research, a serial line of various armored vehicles will be launched. Who is there and what he promised to whom remains on the conscience of the newspapermen. Su-57 was put into production, deliveries have already begun. But of course, for especially gifted moronic little brothers, this is not true.

      As for the new ideas that your opponents are actively embodying, perhaps the most backward Negro in Africa has never heard of them - these are light autonomous robotic complexes equipped with new types of weapons. Do you think why the Americans are not developing new tanks, have their loot abruptly ended, or are all specialists retrained in a gigolo?
