jmcmtank Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Maybe because bustle is not bustle? Could also be part of the snorkel system which seems to be standard fitting on Soviet MBT's? Either way, this parade will surely be talked about for a good while yet. Thanks guys, I was missing the blindingly obvious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-44 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Looks to be a detachable armour module on the hull front?I wonder if those side armoured skirts are what will also feature on the tank, which has only been pictured so far with sideskirts not fitted? big ivf + amphibious(if its amphibious) -> no armor. Trim vane + flotation devices? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YugoManiac Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) is this also Armata? Edited March 26, 2015 by YugoManiac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-44 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) is this also Armata? ref the movie: Heavy IFV based on Armata chassis? Turret (even if in tarps) looks similar to Kurganets pictures. Edited March 26, 2015 by T-44 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilhelm Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Very interesting. Nothing seems to escape in this day and age of cameras everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotsman Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) Is that Kurganets-25 or T-15 in the video...seeing this chassis/road wheel count being reported both ways... Edited March 26, 2015 by scotsman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ink Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 is this also Armata? Nope. Just evidence of the FSB not doing their jobs Also, a strong hint at some shoddy tank driving (see: lampost in video) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max H Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Is that Kurganets-25 or T-15 in the video...seeing this chassis/road wheel count being reported both ways... It's T-15 in the video yugomaniac posted, kurganets is less sloped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panzermann Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Could thermal images 'see' through the canvas? There is only canvas under the canvas. It is a tank matryoshka puppet!

Ifor Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 The three axle trucks at the beginning, are they APCs? In fact could of some one go through explaining what is what? I recognise some but not others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damian Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 (edited) These trucks are KamAZ Typhoon's, one of several planned variants, it's armored truck or russian concept of MRAP if you wish. There are also Ural Typhoon's AFAIK, same concept, different company. Edited April 4, 2015 by Damian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
