Specialists from the Ural Design Bureau of Transport Engineering (part of the Uralvagonzavod concern of the Rostec State Corporation) have developed a new method for modernizing the chassis of T-72 and T-90 tanks. New tank support fighting vehicles (BMPT) will be created on its base.
The essence of the modernization is to equip the tank chassis with a transition ring to mate the hull with the installed BMPT combat module after removing the turret with the gun.
Also, boxes of portable spare parts, equipment for collecting links of automatic gun belts and a machine gun will be added to the equipment.
Thanks to the new method, the complexity of creating a BMPT will be reduced by using the chassis of existing tanks. In addition to replacing the tank turret with a combat module and replacing some of the components with new ones, minimal modification will be required for the remaining equipment.
