Reply With QuoteI wonder if we will see Mi-26 size (or even bigger) helicopter with 2 rotors like Ka-50/52 some day.
It would be a magnificent view

Guys, the GSPO picture of a tanks roadwheels claimed to be from the T-95 is exactly that - a picture of ROADWHEELS. Those are the roadwheels to be used on the T-95. they are not necessarily mounted on the actual tank, quite possibly just some test bed vehicle.
What i like very much about T-90 is its low profile(though i also prefer ammo-box outside).

Yes, you are right. It's a patch of the 2nd infantry brigade from SenakiNow about that shevron (?).
I can't give a direct link to a pic, so just press this
What is it?
I always hope that it's a mind control device.

Thanks for the response Recce51...
Perhaps rifle calibre or HMG calibre. I doubt a cannon could be used as recoil would likely flip it. I think if I had the talent to draw something like that I would have drawn it with an AMR, preferably a semi auto design like the OSV-96 with a modified belt feed. The single shot fire will allow the aircraft to regain balance for the next shot and relative lack of range would be compenated for by the fact that computer fire control system/aiming should make the first shot quite accurate and its small size and unmanned nature meaning it could be flown into danger areas near enemy ground fire.Could this UCAV design actualy work? (MG could be either 23mm or 30mm)
Regarding Coalition, it is my understanding that it is to be the standard artillery piece of the Russian Army and is based on a similar designed system for the Russian Navy. The system is based in a turret that is fitted to the standard tank chassis, just like Msta, which uses a T-80 chassis.We know Coalition is real, pics have been seen. THe thing is none of them are on the so-called T-95 hull. But this thing is very new, give it time gents. MSTA itself is a new and potent weapon whos service status is only now really being defines.
They certainly might have stopped the project for a while because their priority would surely be to get the T-95 into production, to step up T-90 production and to replace some of the old tanks in service, either through gifts to friendly countries, or conversions to heavy APCs or tank support vehicles, or scrapping/target practise, or even gifting to museums/selling to private collectors.
It is a bit like claims Hermes is to be scrapped... it is the way forward and it has been mostly developed... the current stumbling block is there is plenty in service doing the job cheaper, but if you want to move forward the existing stuff can't be stretched much further and you need to look at Coalition or Hermes to move ahead.
They both might be paused but the amount of development put into them wont be wasted I hope and they are just paused and not cancelled. For Hermes the issue might also be the terminal homing aspect either MMW radar active homing and Imaging Infra Red homing are not cheap to develop, but as the technology matures in other areas like AAMs and SAMs then it will become more viable for ASMs.
Yay... it worked... and Yay... you are not in Siberian Gulag digging for salt.How'bout now

Steel is easier to work with. Also some composite materials are not so good for multiple hits.wow is that the actuall ob195 t-95 running gear are those side armor plates composites or steel because they look steel and how can you have that on a 4th generation tank
1 barrel!!!! Don't be ridiculous....It's a modular system, anything from 1 to 10 barrels can be used.
BTW regarding T-95 Chassis look at this thread: http://www.militaryphotos.net/forums...1&postcount=34
Am begining to think that the T-95 will be very expensive and will be part of a digital network that shares info on the battlefield with HQ and other platforms. They have probably waited till now to introduce the T-95 because without the Mi-28N it would not have other platforms to share info with. Add some UAVs from Israel to test with and it should be quite interesting. (note I think the UAVs and T-95s and the Mi-28Ns will be in test units to develop operations manuals and work on tactics before they are sent to operational units).
I think the T-95 will be the T-64/T-80 of the 21st C, being the small production highly capable and also expensive tank with the T-90 filling the role of good enough and mass production for numbers tank.
I actually doubt Coalition is going to replace MSTA, wouldn't 2s5 be a more logical system to replace?
