Rostec published an interesting video on its Telegram channel – a shot from a T-90 tank gun in slow motion. In the footage, you can see how the projectile flies out and what kind of mini-explosion accompanies it.

The T-90 tank was adopted in 1992, after which it was modernized many times. At the moment, the tank is armed with NSVT 12.7 mm and PKT 7.62 mm machine guns, as well as 12 smoke grenade launchers, in addition to a 125 mm gun-launcher.

It is powered by a V-92S2 engine with a capacity of 1000 hp. The gearbox is planetary with hydraulic control, the transmission provides 7 forward gears and one reverse gear.

The T-90 chassis became the basis for many combat vehicles, such as the Koalitsiya-SV self-propelled gun, the TOS-1A Solntsepek, the BMPT Terminator, and others.
