At present, the Ground Forces of the RF Armed Forces began to receive additional sets of dynamic protection for tanks. It is reported by RIA Novosti with reference to its own informed source..
According to an agency source, protection kits are transferred to the troops by enterprises of the Russian military-industrial complex. The conclusion about the need for additional strengthening of tanks was made on the basis of an analysis of the experience of participation of tank units in a special military operation in Ukraine.. for example, the special operation showed an increase in risks for tanks due to the emergence of new anti-tank missile systems and unmanned aerial vehicles.
This allows the repair battalions, guided by relevant promptly developed recommendations, to mount additional protection against anti-tank ammunition directly in front-line units on tanks, making it virtually all-perspective- notes the source of RIA Novosti.
An increase in combat stability is considered as a direct result of the supply of new protection., security, and hence the survival of Russian armored vehicles and their crews on the battlefield. for example, the tank becomes more difficult to knock out with armor-piercing feathered sub-caliber shells. The level of armor resistance in the side projection is also getting higher - it is approaching the strongest frontal projection.
An agency source said, that additional protection is installed on various modifications of the T-72B tanks, T-72B3, T-80, which are massive in the Russian ground forces. But they also install it on the latest T-90M "Breakthrough" tanks.. Now it remains only to wait for feedback from the tankers themselves and unit commanders, since only a test on the battlefield can demonstrate the true effectiveness of new defense systems. used photos:Russian Ministry of Defense
