The latest images from the UralVagonZavod tank assembly show that the first batch of T-90S / SK in the contract with Vietnam is now complete.

In June this year, the Russian television channel Nizhny Tagil broadcast a report on "young tank builders" about a boy who had very innovative ideas for future tank design. The UralVagonZavod Plant Manager must arrange a field trip for this "young engineer".

The most notable detail in the video, however, is that the T-90 main battle tanks are being assembled, painted in green, and configured differently from the original T-90S / SK batch. made for the Iraqi Army.

Currently, UralVagonZavod is contracting to produce the T-90S / SK tank version for two Iraqi and Vietnamese customers, so it is almost 100% certain that these are our T-90s.

Based on the announcement, the T-90S tanks in Vietnam are fundamentally different from the ones manufactured for Iraq that are in front of its turret, which still has the pendant of "Red Eyes - Noise Lamps OTSh-U-1-7 "is renowned for its Shtora-1 active defense system.

Thus, it can be seen that the T-90S / SK configuration of the main battle tanks of Vietnam has better missile defense capability to increase the 2nd generation better than T-90 of Iraq. It has the effect of jamming the guiding system of 2nd generation ATGM or less, causing it to fly to the sky or miss the target.

However, there is still some doubt that the suspension is actually an OTShU-1-7 interfering lamp or is supporting a reactive explosion or other weapon, until the vehicle is returned. If you do not mind, then you can be reassured.

And on the Russian military pages, the T-90 was redesigned with red eyes in front of the turret, bearing the plant code V-31, adding that this It was the T-90 of Vietnam (T-90s for Iraq marked "I").

Thanks to the OTShU-1-7 light bulb, the T-90S / SK tanks of Vietnam have been equipped with a full "Shtora-1" defense complex, including camouflage smoke detectors, Provides great peace of mind for the crew when fighting.

However, one thing remains to be seen, it is unclear whether Vietnam's T-90 tanks will be fitted with a new generation of armor-plated, For the latest T-90M Proryv-3, it's still the same as the T-90A, which is the only armor made of rubber sheets to shield the chain.
