Tanks, mothballed during the Soviet era in the event of World War III, began to arrive in the NMD zone. And this technique has an advantage over new developments.
The Soviet zagashnik, inherited by Russia, consists of thousands of T-62, T-72 and T-80 tanks. When necessary, tanks are upgraded and sent to war zones.
The fact that Russia has started withdrawing the T-62 from this reserve does not mean that the Russian army is struggling with equipment. Each tank has its own tactical niche, and today the legendary T-62 is needed in the SVO zone.
This is without exaggeration the most earned tank after the T-34. He took part in dozens of military conflicts, including in Syria. The main advantages are simplicity and reliability. It doesn’t fail, and teaching mobilized military personnel how to handle it is as easy as peeling pears.
In the early 1980s, the T-62s were upgraded. Their armor has been improved, a fire control system (FCS) with a laser rangefinder and a Sheksna guided weapon system has appeared, as well as a more powerful engine.
Before the T-62M is sent to the NWO zone, it will be upgraded again. The armor has been reinforced again, covered with modern dynamic protection, a new FCS with a thermal imager has been installed on the tanks. As a result, the vehicles gain advantages over the armored vehicles that remain available to the armed forces of Ukraine.
