NIZHNY TAGIL, November 26. /tass/. Twenty of the newest T-14 Armata tanks will be delivered to the combat units of the Ground Forces by the end of 2021, the acting head of the 47th military mission, Major Dmitry Repin, told reporters.

Russian Deputy Defense Minister Alexei Krivoruchko visited Uralvagonzavod in Nizhny Tagil on Friday during a working trip, where he checked the production of T-14 Armata and T-90M Breakthrough tanks, and also held a meeting on the development of armored weapons and equipment of the Ground Forces.

"It is planned to deliver tanks based on the Armata T-14 heavy interspecific tracked platform in the amount of 20 units by the end of 2021," said a military representative at the enterprise, specifying that these vehicles will go to combat units.

"According to the terms of the state contract, serial delivery of products to the troops is carried out before the end of state tests. Now the production of a pilot batch is underway before the end of state tests in order to gain experience in military operation," Repin explained.

He did not specify which compound the newest tanks would be delivered to, noting that "this determines the main armored vehicle control."

The T-14 Armata is a new generation tank with an uninhabited turret, its crew is housed in an armored capsule in the center of the hull.
