The T-90 became Russia's primary tank following the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Combining the best features of the T-72 and T-80 series, it incorporates the Shtora-1 countermeasure system and the innovative Kontakt-5 explosive reactive armor. With its relatively low profile and lightweight design (46 tons), the tank offers excellent mobility while maintaining robust protection. Its 125mm smoothbore gun, capable of firing both conventional rounds and guided missiles, provides versatility in combat. The latest T-90M variant features significant upgrades in fire control, protection, and crew comfort, showcasing Russia's commitment to maintaining its edge in tank warfare.
