What is the state of Russian armor?
State of Russian armor? Just peachy, I would think. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ilies/cute.gif
|
Probably in a state of extreme rust.

Found this... http://russianarmor.info/

While they were mainly using T72s in Georgia, they're definitely not the most advanced of Russian armor. Their top of the line tank is the T-90, which is modern enough, and they have nearly a thousand of those not counting the T-90s that are upgraded older armor.
|
Y'know, there's a munitions company based in Prague that makes state-of-the-art body armor under contract for their government. They used to have these wonderful PR spots on state television targeting the families of soldiers: "Don't worry; your Czech is in the mail!"
|
|
Global security puts T-90s of all models at 300 or less in service. Several hundred have been produced, but many are for export. It sounds like the strategy is to keep the production line open until the T-95 is ready.
|
Which it isn't, so Russia can't fight a ground war and win. It would seem that US and German armor is more modern. Don't know about the French and British.
|
I very nearly worked for General Dynamics Canada. :whew:
|
Could be better. If everything goes well, it'll take us 5-10 years to modernize our armour. We still have to do something with older tanks, for example, we sent a lot of T-62s into Georgia.
|
Actuall battle conditions... Against Iraqi T-62's. Color me unimpresssed?
|
Thanks for the info PLATO. It would seem that NATO is far more powerful than Russia.
|
And were probably right - you just shouldn't attack them IN RUSSIA. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/smile.gif

Tankthreadi!

So, sub-par optics? http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/smile.gif

2 T-72s are much better than 1 Leopard. Depends if there's an Apache around http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/smile.gif |
