So the priority is now the Museum in Patriot Park. Pensions and Armata will wait. Already 5 Il-76. After 10 years of pre-production. And why production? It's somewhere to teach pilots. And to whom and where? Well done Shoigu! Glory to Commander-in-Chief Putin! Hooray

Well, yes, the vaccine against covid was not tested for a very long time and they immediately began to inject, and the tanks still need to be tested, these are tanks.

And how many are happy ...
I'm sure they were unhappy when they were about to release the tank！
Such are the “regulars of the dissatisfied” ..

Who do you have it? And you yourself, what did you do for Armata? Scolds are already recorded in the queue.

Because everything is not real here, like a hearth in Pope Carlo's closet, painted on a piece of canvas.

I thought the reason was old. An, no, I was wrong. It turns out you need to listen to Shoigu! In Syria, it turns out that the tests passed He shot at terrorists and defeated them 6 times. Well, as reported.

On the "electric drive" is not necessarily vulnerable. It all depends on the specific design, redundancy, etc. The planes are also electric and the ships are the same. This is the 21st century, son. What "drive" do you need? By horse? Do you think this is safer?

T64 - developed in 1961, adopted in 1964 and built 90 vehicles. T72 - developed in 1967, adopted for service in 1973, serial production in 1974.

Everything would be fine, only the T14 is still not in the troops, at least in an intermediate version, after the modifications that were after the show at the parade. The tank has everything on an electric drive. Everything. It's incredibly vulnerable. Slightly where failure or damage as a result of the battle, etc. And all this is a dead target tank. There is no way to fix it in the field. This is the main argument of the military practitioners. And expensive!

The Chinese delay the delivery of components

And it can be simpler - no money!

I agree with you

We have no one to fight on the existing armor, and you are t14, There are already announcements on the Internet about the recruitment of crews and shooters for the infantry.

Long-term testing for tanks is the norm. Comparative tests of T64 and T72 lasted no less, and here the level of novelty is still high.

Without capacities in Russia? You have not confused with the United States?

The T-14 tank is being tested and fine-tuned. There is no rush here. And there is no urgent need for it yet.

this is not a HEAVY tank, this base platform has the HEAVY status. On its basis, you can collect 30 types of equipment. At the same time, the specific equipment assembled on this platform does NOT have the HEAVY status. Tank T14 has the status - BASIC. APCs or self-propelled guns on this platform, according to the author's logic, should also be called HEAVY)))) LOL

For 6 years they have been experiencing that it is possible to test it for so long, they would say it is directly expensive and everything until they are exported will not have T14 armata, so the test in quotes can be carried out for a long time)

Without power, there will be a virtual privostvo, then there will be a saw

The production capabilities of this tank appeared before 2018. They do not produce it due to the fact that they are constantly being improved. How to start mass production of a tank that is not yet fully finalized? This is not another modernization of the old Abrams, Leopard or T-72, for which such modifications are not needed just because they have already been tested a thousand times in battle.

..well, HOW to start production in the absence of production capacity?

"Earlier it was assumed that the delivery of the experimental industrial batch of" Armata "will begin in 2021" - Who was it supposed to be? Officials or hamsters? There is an official document, such as a rearmament program. Where is it said that the supply to the troops will begin in 2021 ???
