[Regnum] Uralvagonzavod (UVZ), part of the Rostec concern, announced the successful completion of contracts for the supply of T-90M and T-72B3M tanks to the Ministry of Defense. This was reported by the press service of the UVZ concern.
The concern's enterprises have already begun working on contracts for 2024. The combat vehicles sent to the ministry are significantly different from those supplied to the army in 2022, UVZ noted.
“The teams of Uralvagonzavod and the Ural Design Bureau of Transport Engineering are improving armored vehicles, taking into account the experience of their use in the Northern Military District zone,” the press service noted.
First of all, we improved the protection and operational characteristics, which affect the safety of the lives of the crew and increase the efficiency of combat missions.
General Director of Uralvagonzavod Alexander Potapov noted that in the past year, employees accomplished a real labor feat on par with their ancestors during the Great Patriotic War.
“Just like 80 years ago, today the volume of production of combat vehicles is increasing from month to month, a lot of work is being done to improve their tactical and technical characteristics, which means changes are being made to the design of tanks,” Potapov said.
In April of this year, the Ministry of Defense showed footage of the combat work of crews of T-72B3M tanks. Military personnel of the Southern Military District (SMD), having received information about the positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces and the movements of equipment, carried out targeted strikes on Ukrainian units that had equipped firing points in dilapidated buildings on the outskirts of populated areas. The tankers also destroyed armored vehicles and civilian forces of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
On June 22, the commander of the T-90M with the call sign Perun spoke about the fear of the Ukrainian Armed Forces at the sight of Russian tanks. According to him, during the SVO, the T-90M showed such serious firepower that the Ukrainians were forced to hide so as not to fall under their attacks. Due to the heat-protective casing, the tank is difficult to notice through a thermal imaging sight, the soldier explained.
In July of this year, Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu inspected the training of crews of T-90 Proryv tanks in the Southern Military District . At the same time, crew training also takes place on modern interactive training complexes, which allow them to practice all elements of combat training.
On July 16, President Vladimir Putin called the T-90 Proryv tank the best in the world. According to him, the captured equipment of the West is the subject of study by Russian specialists; he recalled the expression “reverse engineering” and called for taking the opportunity to look inside the captured modern equipment and apply some of this to the Russian one.
