Despite the development of drones, tanks still maintain their relevance. In a hypothetical scenario of nuclear weapons use, these combat vehicles can also be used, believes retired Colonel Viktor Litovkin.
According to him, in a scenario involving the use of weapons of mass destruction, drones would simply be useless.
And who will drive through contaminated terrain? Tanks, of course! Therefore, tanks will not disappear. One only needs to understand how to use them. A tank alone is not a warrior; it needs support.
However, not everyone considers modern tanks, even the T-90M, an important element for the army. War correspondent Dmitry Steshin noted that combat vehicles have become “targets” for attack UAVs even when operating from a closed firing position.
At the same time, the production of armored vehicles in Russia has increased 2.2 times over the past four years, emphasized Deputy Vladimir Gutenyov.
