The Russian T-90MS tank surpasses foreign competitors in the global market in almost all respects, said Alexander Mikheev, General Director of Rosoboronexport, on the sidelines of the World Defense Show 2024 defense exhibition, which is taking place in Riyadh.
While maintaining a traditionally low silhouette, optimal weight, high mobility, and the ability to overcome difficult obstacles at high speed on the move, the T-90MS tanks have high firepower and a modern level of protection and survivability.
He also showed the exhibition guests a presentation demonstrating the advantages of the T-90MS.
According to Rosoboronexport, the T-90MS was created taking into account global and domestic tank building experience, the results of the use of heavy equipment in military conflicts, exercises, as well as the experience of operating tanks. The T-90MS is rightfully called the master on the battlefield.
Tank armament:
- 125 mm caliber gun
- 7.62 mm caliber coaxial machine gun
- 12.7 mm caliber machine gun mount, which can be operated remotely
- guided weapon system, firing range - 5 km
- automated fire control system
The crew of the T-90MS can destroy targets in position, while moving, at any time of the day and even in poor visibility. Thanks to multi-level protection, the tank can withstand the impact of artillery shells, as well as ammunition fired from ATGMs and RPGs.
Earlier, Rostec stated that the domestic T-14 "Armata" tank surpasses the Israeli Merkava.
