2,300 tanks should enter service....... I guess they'll have to sell a A LOT of them on the market to afford them all!

Well then... looks like the T-99's, ahem T-14's, have entered production.

Jeeze that looks mean. Looks like they are attempting to expand on the MBTs responsibilities a bit. It may be primarily a major T90 surface refit though. Not to knock that though, I definitely can appreciate the contours of the glacis and coupla armor, That alone will do some good, even if they haven't reproduced anything like chobham yet.

I think Russia wants a highly mobile force and the T-14 + the Armata Universal combat Platform are exactly what they want.

You need speed and punch to roll in Europe :?

That's kind of true with anything in this world.
