The
following innovations are built into the modernized tank, namely: new
fire control system (connected to four-channel sighting device), passive
reconnaissance radar system (FIRS), tank surveillance measuring device
(TOMS) (for surveillance, reconnaissance and sighting at night and in
conditions of reduced visibility), command information system (CIS) (providing
situation awareness, and data display on situational map with the possibility
of information sharing), remotely controlled weapon station cal. 12.7
mm, system for prevention of explosive fire, system for engine protection,
NBC system, explosive reactive armor (ERA), electro-magnetic protection
against mines, air-conditioning, modified running gear, and power pack
with 1000 or 1200 KS engine.
Adapted tanks represent an example of successful integration of different subsystems into one entity, thus making the tank more complete and improving its quality as firepower carrier. The subsystems developed in the process of the development of the above mentioned tank may be successfully applied to other types of the tanks pertaining to T series including the families of T-55, T-62 and T-72 tanks, as well as other types of tanks. |
