Танки Т-80БВМ перестали «летать»: их начали использовать по-новому

Боевые машины превратились в артиллерийские установки с дальностью огня 12 км

Crews of the "flying" T-80BVM tanks began firing from a closed firing position. Operators of reconnaissance drones identify clusters of enemy equipment and personnel, and then transmit the target coordinates to the tankers.

The adjustment of fire and control of the destruction of identified enemy targets was carried out by calculations of unmanned aerial vehicles, which minimized the time required for accurate fire destruction.

This method of firing allows the tank to be used as an artillery installation, increases the range of the strike to 12 km and allows the tank to remain hidden from enemy air reconnaissance assets.

The T-80 tank is the only domestic tank with a gas turbine engine. In the West, the car was nicknamed "flying" for its famous acceleration to 80 km/h.

Earlierwww1.ru reported thatMiG-31 fighters used hypersonic "Kinzhal" for the second time in three days.
