Russia announced the replacement of the T-14 "Armata"

15

38th Research and Testing Institute of Armored Weapons and equipment Within the framework of the Army-2020 forum, he presented the concept of a combat vehicle, which in the future will replace the T-14 Armata. We are talking about a project of a promising tank in a two-link articulated design.

Despite the fact that the T-14 has not yet entered service, specialists from the Ministry of Defense have begun to develop its successor. The NII BTVT believes that the modern "Armata", which today is the only tank of the third post-war generation in the world, will be able to effectively fulfill the tasks assigned to it in the next 20 years. However, sooner or later he will need a replacement and it would be advisable to lay the foundations of a promising tank right now.

According to the presented project, a combat module with a control compartment for three crew members and protected by an armored capsule will be located in the front of the first link. In the middle part there will be an uninhabited tower equipped with an electrothermochemical cannon with an automatic loader.



The second link of the tank will be coupled to the first. It will house a 3 horsepower gas turbine engine and a compartment for air and ground drones intended for reconnaissance and security.

      Developing a theme commissioned by the USSR Ministry of Internal Affairs, working in the design bureau, as part of a development group, I made 5 construction options for the customer to choose.
      At the stage of the draft design.
      As far as I understand, in these matters this handwriting did not even reach the stage of a technical proposal. Something at the level of Comrade Jules Verne's description of his Nautilus.

      What is this - a duck or a drunken delirium of individual "academicians"? The crew is now closing the engine and the uninhabited combat module, and then first they will shoot at the crew, and the engine is hanging from the rear on the hitch ... the cart is vice versa ...

        It seems that the Armata (except for the uninhabited tower) has a classic Soviet-Russian layout, the engine and transmission at the rear. The engine is ahead only on the Merkava.

        Three thousand strong dvigun. To carry what? Ballast, that keel dangling between your legs? Okay - polarized armor. Snowmobiles and others, through cracks not visible from above. Open spaces where a turn with a radius of one hundred meters is the norm. To scare a potential enemy by the fact that sleeping bags, grub, and additional ammunition are in the butt?

      What is shown in the figure is not a tank, but a drunken delirium of a schizophrenic.

        By April 1, topic, no more. It was also necessary to write that a 152 mm gun would be put on this cuttlefish!

      The photo is weakly connected with the text. The links are located exactly the opposite.

        Never mind! This is not a tank, but a cart with a hearse. I can't imagine this idiotic car on the battlefield, where speed and maneuverability are needed!

      For more reliable protection of the crew, three more sections are needed, which will block not only the front, but the sides and rear.

      Yes, really, an unusual design))
      I first thought from the photo that it was some kind of mine trawl in front.
      And yet. How two tracked vehicles in a hitch will turn around on the spot ???

          The idea is, in fact, idiotic.)
          One of the advantages of a tracked vehicle is its ability to turn in place. And how should this happen in a two-piece coupling ???

            No, it's okay to look for new directions, explore options ...
            But why cover every R&D in the press, let alone promise "victories" and "breakthroughs", that's what is not clear!
