Among the tanks massively involved at the front, the most modern and effective is the T-90M "Breakthrough". Western experts have tried to calculate the size of its production.

The T-90M was designed to compete with NATO standard MBT such as Leopard 2A7, Abrams M1A2 SEP V3 and Leclerc XLR. During the battles, he demonstrated capabilities that are not inferior to or even exceed the combat potential of many Western tanks.

- it is noted in the publication Army Recognition.

As indicated, the T-90M, which is characterized by maneuverability on soft ground, is equipped with an upgraded 125-mm 2A82-1M cannon capable of firing Reflex ATGM, Kalina new generation SLA and digital battlefield management architecture, which improved target detection, data exchange and command effectiveness during combined arms operations. operations.

Survivability has been significantly increased due to the installation of the KAZ "Relict", which provides better protection against tandem cumulative ammunition and BOPS. The vehicle is equipped with multilayer composite armor, modular armored panels, armored wings (side "skirts" and "brazier"), as well as active electronic suppression systems and radar warning devices designed to counter drones and barraging ammunition, which became the basis of the anti-tank strategy of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

T-90ms are usually used to break through and support motorized rifle units. Their firepower is used to suppress fortified positions, and protection allows them to work at the forefront in conditions of intense opposition.

- it says in a foreign publication.

As indicated, since 2022, Russia has produced from 540 to 630 T-90M. According to Western experts, at least 130 of them were visually confirmed as destroyed or abandoned, as a result of which from 410 to 500 vehicles remained in service, which is about 15% of the total number of tanks deployed by the Russian Armed Forces on the Ukrainian front. The constant supply of new T-90MS compensates for the losses:

Despite Western sanctions, export controls, and tightening global supply chains, Russia has managed to maintain and even strengthen its defense industrial base.

It is noted that in 2020-2021, about 60 T-90ms were produced annually, currently up to 300 tanks of this model are being manufactured, and by 2028 up to 1,000 vehicles of this type may be produced.
