In the future, the T-14 Armata tank will be a more formidable weapon than the T-90M Proryv, since the new tank will use more advanced technologies to protect the combat vehicle, Alexander Mikhailov, director of the Bureau of Military-Political Analysis, told Izvestia on March 3.

Both tanks have the same new multi-layer turret module with a 125-millimeter gun, the military expert noted. The T-90M also has an automated Kalina fire control system. In general, this integration of tank technologies from the Armata to the T-90M allows the use of a wide range of ammunition, Mikhailov said.

At the same time, the Armata fire control system was recently tested, which has a digital catalog with standard targets, as well as artificial intelligence that allows the on-board computing facilities of the machine to independently search for targets against the background of complex terrain, the expert stressed.

"In fact, the "Breakthrough" anticipates the appearance of "Armata" in the troops. The T-90M is like a bridge between the tanks of the past, produced in the USSR and then according to Soviet patterns, and the future, where, of course, Armata and other military equipment will rush rapidly, including those capable of operating in drone mode-without a driver and crew, " the military expert said.

The T-90M "Breakthrough" tank with a combat tower module is the combat vehicle of today, and the "Armata" is the tank of the future. Work on the" Armata " continues until now, and presumably, these machines will go to the troops only by the end of the 2020s, Mikhailov concluded.

On the eve of March 2, The National Interest wrote that the Russian T-90M "Breakthrough" tank after the performance improvement has become an even more deadly "monster".

According to the author of the article, Mark Epicos, the T-90M is an improved version of the Soviet T-90 MW, which by the 1990s already had innovative qualities. In particular, the expert notes that the Russian version, unlike its predecessor, has an engine with a more favorable power-to-weight ratio.

At the same time, according to him, the Russian army is going to modernize its existing fleet of T-90 and T-90A in accordance with the new T-90M standards by mid-2020.

Earlier, on October 5, 2020, it became known that the Russian Defense Ministry is working on the creation of regiments and brigades "with increased combat capabilities." They plan to combine the latest combat vehicles "Terminator", "Breakthrough" and "Berezhok". The final decision on the creation of new regiments will be made at the end of the research exercises.
