K-43269 "Выстрел" a Russian-protected armoured vehicle of special-purpose. During the parade in Nizhny Novgorod dedicated to the 76th anniversary of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War. Among the new products from the Central Research Institute "Burevestnik", the K-43269 was one of the newer variants to be shown to the public. 

This new vehicle features the "Спица" - "Spitsa" remote-controlled combat module. The module features the wide-spread 2A42 30mm autocannon, which can fire AP or HE ammunition. 

A similar product is mounted on an armoured vehicle "Typhoon-Airborne". It is also armed with a well-proven in many wars and conflicts 30-mm rapid-fire gun 2A42 and 7.62-mm machine gun 6P7K. Additionally features a modern sight system with tele-thermal imaging channels and a laser rangefinder. 

However, there is also a difference, which consists of installing an AG-30 automatic grenade launcher on the left side of the turret.

GTD-1000 - GTD-1000TF - GTD-1250 Gas Turbine Engines

The world's first mass-produced tank gas turbine engine GTD-1000T was created at the Klimov Plant in 1968 for the T-80 main battle tank developed By the special tank design Bureau of the Kirov plant (now JSC "Spetsmash"), which was adopted by the Soviet Army in 1976. Since 1980, a modification of the GTD‑1000TF for T-80B/BV tanks was produced, since 1986 a modification of the GTD-1250 for T-80U tanks.  GTD-1250 Engines of the GTD-1250 family as part of the power plants of T-80 tanks are in service with the armies of Russia, Belarus, Cyprus, South Korea, Kazakhstan. Turbine engine GTD-1000T/GTD-1250, which have a large volume-weight  capacity and a more favourable traction characteristic compared to diesel engines, provide T-80 tanks with interesting characteristics: - higher operational readiness - easy start-up at low temperatures (up to -40°C) - better cross-country ability on soils with a low load-bearing capacity - best noise and heat-masking qualities - increased &qu

T-80 aerodynamic features

This article is the first part of a set of articles covering the engineering and methodology used to create the T-80s filtration system alongside aerodynamics to reduce airflow dust/sand contamination.  The T-80 MBT has been fielded in many climate regions. Desert climates pose a variety of variables that directly impact dust presence in the engine air filtration system. Variables include wind speed and direction,  vehicle speed,  depth and soil composition, air intake system design, and contours of the hull and turret.    Historical background:  Long-term trials were conducted in the southern Kara-Kum desert. It was determined that during  1970-1983, the quantity of dust present in the engine filtration system increased due to climate changes and weaker upper soil layers.   During the 1970s to 1980s, the Turkmen Canal underwent Soviet industrialization to build an irrigation canal and other facilities. This build-up of new infrastructure directly affected wind speeds in the ar

A new sight for the modernized T-90

  Back in 2018, a new programme was started. This programme's focus is to create domestic equipment for Russian armoured vehicles, specifically optics. This is so that the Russian army can stop depending on the french company "Thales" and their Catherine technology. T-72B3 received new internal components for the Sosna-U sight, phasing out any foreign components. As for the T-90M/T-90MS, something else was done. Previously, the T-90M/T-90MS employed the Sosna-U sight, which featured french components from Thales. However, the internals of the sight was not simply replaced. This time, a completely new domestic sight was created under the name PNM-T. The sight was reportedly made by the PJSC ANPP TEMP-AVIA in 2018 or 2019. The first appearance was in the Telekanal Zvezda show, during the episode about the Proryv-3 (T-90M). In this episode, a new plaque can be seen with the name of the sight. Its first public physical appearance, however, was at the Army-2019 event. The doo
