Russia Rewrites Role of T-72B3 and T-90M Tanks: Occupy New Niche Between ATGM and Artillery

Combat vehicles have become an element of the reconnaissance and fire loop

Tanks have become an effective element of an effective reconnaissance and fire loop, occupying a niche in range between anti-tank missile systems (ATGM) and barrel artillery, Rostec State Corporation said.

The company noted that tanks are currently used as a universal fire weapon. They successfully carry out combat missions both from closed positions and on the front line.

In the first case, tanks demonstrate good operational target engagement in cooperation with UAVs.

In fact, this is a new effective reconnaissance and fire loop, occupying a niche in range between ATGM and barrel artillery.

This effect is achieved due to the accuracy of the guns and the high-quality fire control system, which provides sighting at enemy targets. Often a couple of shots are enough to hit the target, Rostec explained.
