KALININGRAD, November 2. /tass/. A batch of T-72B3M tanks with improved characteristics entered service with the army corps of the Baltic Fleet in the Kaliningrad region. This was reported on Tuesday by the press service of the fleet.

"Another batch of T-72B3M tanks with improved combat characteristics has entered service with the motorized rifle unit of the army corps of the Baltic Fleet stationed in the Kaliningrad region. The new equipment will increase the combat capabilities of the compound due to improved maneuverability and armor protection of the crew," the press service said.

The T-72B3M received a new engine with a power of 1,130 hp, which is almost 300 hp more than the T-72B3. The tank is equipped with a new 125-millimeter gun with improved ballistics and resource, a Pine-U sight, a digital ballistic calculator and a panoramic sight installed at the workplace of the commander of the vehicle. The work of the driver mechanic will be facilitated by displays with which he can control the operation of the tank mechanisms. They also display the image from the rear view camera.

The tank's protection was also strengthened. Lattice screens were installed on it, protecting it from cumulative ammunition, and dynamic protection "Relict". In addition, the T-72B3M received caterpillar belts with increased coupling properties, as well as driving wheels with improved cleanability. This ensures resistance to skidding in a turn and an increase in operational characteristics.
