Very nice, almost an amalgam of various design concepts from both East & West.

I presume that the cassette at the back is mainly storage, spares etc?.

More photos from otvaga. What are the empty slots on the side of the turret? Maybe slots for GPS and 30mm gun?

 

I was wondering about that myself (30mm gun), now that the vehicle has finally been revealed that was one of the features I was looking for. But it appears either the 30mm cannon has either been omitted from the design, or just has not been fitted yet?

 

I must say I am very impressed with the MBT, very sleek looking vehicle although maybe the slat armour spoils it a little.

Wild guess is that cartridge stub ejection hatch is there, or, possibly, ammunition loading port (or both)

Which is the APS and which is the smoke dischargers, either the large tubes or the little ones?

Edit; looks like the large tubes are Afganit-son of Drozd-and the smaller are just smoke?

Yep,

 

On the Object 148 T-14, the Afganit launchers are just above the turret ring.

The turret doesn't seem to have much armour - at least the autoloader bustle should be rather exposed. Maybe this will be a future trend on tanks with unmanned turrets...
